Tenshi turned her trip into a mini vlog "MALAIKA heads to the UK" starting from Entebbe Airport.
Right away, she set out to explore the difference between the services provided at the various flight hierarchies namely economy and business. She was able to experience economy which in her words "was not economing" (referring to a less than stellar experience) before she upgraded to economy premium.

She was able to land some luxury treats by paying for the lounge in-between flight changes and caught a glimpse of business class which she hopes to get into next time.

And yes, where you sit matters to your flight experience according to the actress as she explains in her own words.
"This trip I decided to do Economy Vs Business and finally settle the argument of "we all arrive at the same time" (Spoiler: Bambi we don't. 😅🤣) Started with Economy and Economy Premium, and even that difference is BIG. Bambi tubeela twegumya (we just be consoling ourselves🤣) Let's work hard. Poverty ain't cute. If you have a long layover, please pay for a lounge (there is no reward for suffering)," she says.

Tenshi is dressed in a formal-casual outfit comprising comfortable sneakers, a black crop top and black pants with an orange overcoat. She carried headphones and a book which are must-haves on your person when travelling long distances, ask Solomon Kampala why.
After over 13 hours of travel time, she landed in Manchester to the friendly welcome of her former Gayaza High School schoolmates identified as Shullah and her husband Tony.
Tenshi says she cannot wait for the memories she's going to make during her stay. But perhaps that is after the shock of her new home wears off.

The actress shows us her cosy and immaculate AirBnB as she laments the expensive lifestyle before taking us on a shopping errand.
"Eh, members...friends & family....bagyenzi. The UK is expensive (yamaweee 🙆🏿♀️) Stop asking your family in the UK to send you money, bambi send them money or food instead😅," she says.
The second shock, which is quite literal, is the summer. Apparently, summer in the UK means barely freezing to death a far cry from the beach vibes you would expect. "Manchester's definition of summer and mine are completely different kubanga warrizzz this cold????🤣😅."
Tenshi is also looking toward long days and short nights, "The sun goes down at 9.45 PM!!!! I wonder if that happened in Uganda. How would we react? Personally, I was confused."
They say bad experiences give us good stories but in the words of Tenshi, "There is no reward for suffering" so if you can invest in a good experience, beautiful memories await.
