We spent less than 24 hours in Rwanda, however the taste provided me great incentive to return. The country, known for its thousands of hills, was lush and full of produce sprouting from its fertile soil.


We spent the night in the capital (Kilgali) in luxury, as Kira's parents had a 6-bedroom house, where we all thoroughly enj...

Meanwhile I'm here for two weeks and I feel quit familar with my place (even it's only a temporary one), my colleagues and all the other new things in my life.

That's why I also will reschedule my wife's and son's flight from 03.10. to 31.10., cause at the moment I live in my bosses house, cause the 1st was sold by the owner and the new w...

It rains fiercely and loudly all night, drumming on the tin roofing of our gorilla nest lodge. Spirits are low as we arise to the dark and damp, and contemplate another hike into the forest – but this time soaking wet. Are Golden Monkeys really worth the effort?

We roust about valiantly and agree to plow ahead through the briefing ...

Hi all at home,
Following the highs of winning on Sunday and the magnificent reception we recieved from Fred and his community it was back to the KEC on Monday to continue working on the playground which is in the final stages. We only had a half day as we were playing our second football match later that day.
Work finished at 1230 time so...

My my my, hello my dearest friends! Bonjour from Kigali. After a rather adventurous turn of events I arrived here in Rwanda on Thursday. I am suprised at how quickly I feel at home here. It is absolutely beautiful, rolling hills surround the city in a lush green symphony. The sun seems to shine with optimistic consistancy and the courageous smil...

Although our stay in Rwanda only ended up being a mere 5 days, it was a truly fascinating and heart-wrenching country to visit. Their second language is French, we had to drive on the right side of the road , and it's the first African country with no mini-buses, only scooters for taxis, so overall it felt very different to all the other places ...

On the 8th we just came back to the capital to buy our tickets to Tazania - since we decided that we did not want 2 days of travelling on buses (OR MORE) when you can fly for 244 US Dollars! Lazy huh. So thought I would give some useful info/thoughts on Rwanda * All plastic bags are conviscated at the boarders into the country. * It is well advi...

Our alarm went off at 5:15 and we both got up, ready and excited to be on the road again. Unfortunately, it seems ESKOM's wrath is still following us around as there was no power (it was still pitch dark out and we needed the lights). But upon hearing us rummaging for our head torches and packing our belongings, the Lodge owner fired up the gene...

I first arrived into Kigali after a 9 hour bus ride from Kampala on the Jaguar bus. I was really tired after arriving and with the two American friends I made we made our way to a lodge which was quite expensive, there is not that much budget accommodation in Rwanda. The next day we headed off to Gisenyi near the border of Rwanda and the DRC for...

The nine hour bus ride from Kampala to Kigali was fairly comfortable; anything seems comfortable compared to a matatu. While we were going through immigration at the border I met a black American from Los Angeles who is traveling in the region. Coincidentally, we had stayed at the same hotel in Kampala and were traveling on the same bus to Kigal...
