    That Chinese cemetery is not in middle of nowhere, it is a cemetery built by them in commemoration of the Chinese who lost their lives while building that road. It is a rocky mountains they had to use dynamites and other explosives to find where they can pass the road. Your ability to adapt is crucial is priceless you are a good human To be Honest. Thank you for passing in our Country! As those citizens told you “Uri umunyarwanda Mwiza!”.

      he written a book. title in English " world view shocking".
      and ,it is really world view shocking. I wish I can contact with him to give him these information.

    I'm really not one to comment but I gotta state my appreciation for you. Found out your channel only about 3 months ago but have been following every video since. I must say, at first I thought you were kinda on the mellow side, not so over-the-top personality we usually see in youtubers and I asked myself if you could held me interested and... here I am, how many videos later? I even went back and watched since your first videos up in Mexico.
    I really feel that I don't need to say this to you but keep up being who you are, in terms of being an open-minded, open-hearted, non judgmental person... A person who freaking CARES. That is just such an alien concept these days, it seems.
    I speak 3 languages and 2 others I know a little bit but after watching you randomly getting into your Chinese friend's car (in Zanzibar, I think?) and proceeding to talk in Mandarin with her I just told myself "what the heck" and I went out and enrolled myself into some Chinese classes. I've even been in China but never had any interested in learning it, so all my friends where like "why the hell?"... I just told them I saw a random youtuber who inspired me! hehehe
    I know it seems far-fetched but if you're ever, ever, in Brazil (I live in São Paulo) and are open to be taken around and explore the country I'd love to tag along, even though you seem like a lone ranger kinda guy. (added you on Instagram)
    Keep doing what you're doing. I'm going out on a limb here but If you ever felt like you lost the direction of your life be sure, absolutely sure of yourself that you're doing something unique only you can do! Out of almost 8 billion people in our humble world you are standing out and are inspiring and educating so many people for something truly worthy. That's what an "influencer" should be about. Cheers and thank you!

But one thing I noticed In all these places besides Mexico, is they ask for things, don't say please or thank u & then ask for another thing! So I like that u straight up said, "your the 1st one to say thank you"..I get they don't have much. But for ppl that don't have much u think they would show more gratitude & at least say thank u before asking u for the next thing. .Anyway glad I found ya & safe travels.

    The Chinese cemetery was built in 1982 to commemorate the 10 Chinese who lost thier lives while helping Rwandan villagers for construction of infrastructure and roads for the improvement of life of local region. 烈士 usually means heroes who sacrifice thier lives in war for the country.

    I came across this channel because I was a fan of laoshu, and I quickly had to subscribe to you since you're carrying the same spirit and showcasing great travel to boot. While you're in Rwanda, be sure to try the milk there, specifically ikivuguto which is a slightly sour fermented milk which tastes like kefir and is delicious. They have milk bars there, or you can go to a village and see if you can get it fresh.

    This place is specifically known as ‘Rulindo Chinese Martyrs’ Cemetery’. This cemetery was built in 1982. From 1982 to 1997, a total of 10 Chinese who passed on working in aid projects in Rwanda were buried there. Each year, Chinese diplomats, aid workers, teachers, volunteers and other members of Chinese community travel to Rulindo district in the Northern Province, about 50.9 km from Kigali city, to pay tribute to 10 Chinese, some of whom sacrificed their lives.
