Why Goma should be on your bucket list

If there ever was a destination that should feature in every travel bucket list then that would be the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
I remember how irritated I was when Kenya was erroneously referred to, by an international media outlet, as a hotbed of terror. Granted, we had suffered a few ghastly terror-related incidents, but this portrayal flatly bordered on hyperbole. Likewise, I cringe at the blanket bad press that the DRC has had to endure over the years.
