Gosh Tommy, you’ve touched my heart Immensely by responding. I never thought that you would. Thank you!! Thanks everyone for the kind words and likes. Maybe next year I’ll be in Africa too if the Good Lord allows. I’m as always excited for the next video.

Your comment is sweet and touching. I will keep you in my prayers❤❤❤

ha really? he was a bit biased in his visit.

@@eze.k9593 He wasn't Eze... HOW?

@@DigitalMindQuest So you think the few videos Tammy or whatever his name is represent the entire Africa?

Ask anybody....Nowhere in this world is as beautiful naturally as Tanzania.

@@charleszambi792 I am not arguing which country is "the best" or "the most (something)". I am only speaking about my subjective opinion. Everybody has one :)

Truthfully speaking Tommy should hav the highest sub in utube world. Wecr learnibg alot nd seeing stuff we v neverxseen b4, one can see hexdoes it from the heart. I m sure One of Tommys ancesters had black blood or were black, he fits in nsturally with no pretence.

Interesting. It’s got me wondering whether the war changed the citizens’ sense of independence and self- sufficiency...

@@catherinecege8659 it's possible.. I am aware they might simply have adopted the notion from TV and other media that white people are usually wealthier ...I also understand that children might just parrot whatever English sentence they know (in Rwanda especially)...however, they also asked us for money in French and Kinyarwanda..and they asked for specific amounts, not just any change we could spare... We noticed the elder generations missing..we mostly had to do with people ages 1-40ish.. we rarely encountered any elderly people and the few ones kept their distance except one proud grandpa who wanted to show us his cattle herd...Maybe the way we were traveling sorta checked all the boxes for people to gravitate to us but we were actually trying to not draw too much attention, i.e. we did travel light, we hired locals who drove us around and we always had Ethel, my Ugandan sister-in-law lead any kind of monetary debates so that the locals wouldn't try to rip us off too badly :D Rwanda is definitely an insanely beautiful country and my family and I are also really open-minded and multi-cultural...however, my sense of privacy was so heavily invaded in Africa that I had a hard time adjusting...The Rwandan people in particular are hard to read since they show very little emotion in their faces..We often encountered silly problems because they would rather invent a creative lie instead of simply telling us if they didn't know or if stuff was sold out...Once, at Kibuye, we were told the entire Kivu lake was closed (!) because the chef at the hotel didn't know how to fry a fish my brother had ordered. Another time, I ordered a chocolate milkshake at a hotel, the waiter asked me what would go inside it, I told him "chocolate icecream", he came back 30 minutes later and told me chocolate milkshake was finished, so then I ordered strawberry, another 30 minutes later he told me strawberry was finished...as a last resort I then ordered vanilla and got it after another 30 minutes...so, I spent 1 1/2 hours waiting for a milkshake that wasn't my fav flavour because the waiter didn't tell me right from the start that everything besides vanilla was finished, lmao...And yet another time we asked our driver to refuel the car, we gave him money and he told us the next day he had refueled the car; we went for a trip and had to refuel along the way and we found out the driver didn't even know where the fuel tank was; he had taken the money and not told us he couldn't refuel...I'm not saying that all Rwandans behave that way..maybe just the random ones we met...My family and I welcome honesty and would have appreciated them admitting outright if things we asked for weren't possible...Their way around it was creative and also entertaining yet sometimes annoying...Long story short: the civil war probably did a number on them..half the elder generation is missing and the younger people seem like they lost guidance in one way or other...Note we still like the country a lot. I'm not trying to badmouth Rwanda. I'm just saying that for a tourist things can get really confusing.

@Ka To that was a very interesting perspective, thanks for sharing.

@@ch3shire_kat I feel sorry for you as a Rwandan. Honesty it has been a mindset here that all Bazungu are wealthy and they carelessly give money. But this mindset disappears as people get educated. And most of time people used to think that even a native of village would buy them something when he/she comeback to rural areas. Then, the way they somehow force you to buy, annoys almost everyone especially me, I just tell them OYA(NO) Rwandans, we need to respect everyone's privacy.

DR congo got better landscape

Racism detected

@@eze.k9593 It is the truth

@@eze.k9593 you really don’t understand what racism is

Here in Rwanda rules and conditions to work look similar to Europeans very hard to start a business when you are average but in Kenya and Luganda it easy and little government this why we love kenya

Nop.kenya is like Europe comparing lol

world evolution you are tell him the truth..... our government took everything and everything is for soldiers other things like that.... saying it’s like Europe shame on you 😒😒

We don’t have a choice that’s why we are coming to kenye and anywhere also many Rwandans they leaving the country you can’t understand Brother..... Rwandan its a good country to vist but peoples we are suffering and suffering money with some peoples others nooooo even when you start a business when it grow government will ask you a share if you don’t want they take it by force or they kill you..... there is many examples..... every business in hands of a small group of peoples .... we can it icyama....

@@TheZombieGAGA legend 🙏

Probably both😅

Agreed

Rwanda is probably one of the cleanest and most organized nations on Earth. But it is also an autocracy. It sucks Tommy wasn't able to visit Congo. I hope he finds a way. In so many ways, it is Africa's most important country. The continent will not rise until Congo rises. Thanks so much, Tommy, for this blog. This gringo is learning alot about our brothers and sisters in Africa.

@@ChristopherCasey77 autocracy or not as long as the economy works n ppl can enjoy simple things of lige

@@ChristopherCasey77 how does success of Congo ties with the future of other countries in Africa? Does it even make sense, what do they share in common that one needs to rise before the rest? Like make it make sense
