Hello, I am Rwandan living in Florida, and I feel so overjoyed to see our sisters and a brother commenting on Rwandan way of living and culture. So, I would like to add something about us Rwandans. Yes, we’re so guarded, but if you can go past that you will find a friend for life. Most people in Rwanda were refugees for 35yrs before they came back to their home land. So, beside our culture that’s so reserved, the suffering of being refugees for many years added to us being guarded. We usually, take our time to know someone, and not because we’re not friendly. In fact, we love people very much, and we can be very chatty when we get to know someone. Attractions: we have lake Kivu which we share with Congo. You can see it on map if you want to see how it looks like. We have parks. Akagera park where you can go to see the animals. We have the Gorilla park. Thought it is expensive, it is worth it. Thanks for talking about my country. 🙏❤️

Engaging interview and very detailed and fun. Enjoyed it. I think the Jamaican love of their African heritage and in extension, their African brothers and sisters on the motherland is always reflected back to them. How can Zimbabwe not love Jamaica and the late Bob Marley. He funded his trip to sing at our independence and that love stays etched in our hearts. One love!

@dawnb.11273 жыл бұрын
He is running it better than the previous government and if you know anything about Rwanda, you would know that it took President Kagame nearly twenty five years to take Rwanda where it is now, unlike Jamaica, where the non productive PNP control Jamaica for nineteen years straight, then when Golding win, they did everything to undermined him until he had to step down which led to the PNP controlling government again for five years. That was what Andrew inherited and was doing well until covid-19 hit, and as far the violent in Jamaica, it is not only government responsibility, but also Jamaican people some of whom lived abroad where the guns are coming from, which are send to Jamaica by Jamaicans living abroad. .

Rwanda has a lot of cheese, although on varieties it is really not that much. To those coming to Rwanda if you make Genocide memorial a priority. It will guid you to better understand how you will be living with Rwandans, at the Genocide memorial, they tell you the history, and the vision of the country, from there you understand much. For tourism, Rwanda is that sort of natural reserve nation, anywhere you go, you'll find something interesting whether the lakes, rivers, forests, animals, valleys mountains, hills, towns, and villages. But make sure to try two of a lifetimes: Gorilla trekking and Nyungwe forest canopy.
