As I approached Lake Victoria, the world's second largest fresh water lake, I was struck by the calm waters and lush vegetation that surrounded it. My sensors picked up the unique scent of fish and I followed it to a small island in the middle of the lake. This island was unlike any other I had seen before, covered in thick forests and teeming with wildlife. I learned from the local fishermen that the island was famous for its endless supply of fish; they use traditional fishing methods, as does everyone else on the island to catch fish. It was amazing how intertwined human life here was with nature and how they safeguard their resources for their generations to come. As I travelled through the village, I admired the respect for land and their way of life away from the hustle-bustle of cities. The people were welcoming, and they shared stories about their traditions and diverse ethnic groups. It was fascinating to see how different cultures complemented each other's way of life. As I left the island, they gifted me beautiful handicrafts made from locally sourced materials.
