* About Burundi
About Burundi
Burundi is one of the world's poorest nations and is now rebuilding following civil war since 1972.
Burundi-outline-small
Burundi has an estimated population of around 8 million, approximately half of whom are aged 14 or less. The effects of AIDS and cival war has had a significant effect on the demographics of the country.

There is now peace since elections in 2005, but the country still faces the formidable challenges of reviving a shattered economy and of forging national unity with up to 500,000 refugees now returning from camps in Tanzania and Kenya.

Hi everyone.

Just to let you know we have successfully finished our Scottish cycle run from Fort William to Inverness.

We were really blessed over the weekend.  Although it was raining when we started the wind was behind us all the way. We did Ā¾ of the distance (about 57 mile) in the first day which meant we could take more difficult and longer, but safer, route on the last day. . All the boys finished despite Josh not being to well at the start of each day.

We have some good times to share over the weekend.  We are tired but pleased.

It's not long now until we leave for Bujumbura, only 3 weeks and countingā€¦

The pictures below are from our cycle run:
