Definitely enjoy watching the videos. Nothin like starting a Tuesday morning with a little Rwandan culture.

One of my favorite subscriptions! Great show!!

This is the best channel on KZread. Keep spreading love, Tommy.

One thing I've learnt about all this east African countries is that kenyans are very honest, a Kenyan lady charged you 50 shillings (0.4dollars) for a shoe shine,11 dollars for a tshirt that's 1200 kenyan men.

@africanglobalnomad

Why? It might be cheaper to get those items in Kenya especially as Rwanda and Uganda are landlocked. Also Kenya has a more established manufacturing base so may have been made locally.

As a Kenyan, I can understand like 40% of Kinyarwanda words you're speaking so far. Some Luhya, Kikuyu and Swahili words are similar to it... But I found Rwandese people a bit reserved than any other E. Africans when I was there.

Very awesome video about Rwanda and Kinyarwanda. I actually speak 9 languages, 6 of them fluently, and have been jumping between the other 3. That being said, I love how your travels have led you to learn certain languages like Kinyarwanda, which would be much more difficult to learn at the pace you did outside the country. Going forward, I would love to spend a few weeks in one country like you did there and be able to converse in the local language somewhat fluently.

Best negotiation I’ve ever seen, plus great communication. Come again 👍🏾
