      They whine too much. People live under bridges in the socalled rich cointry on earth. May I remind you America has both the Reserved Currency and the Petro-Dollar. This give them the abilty to money with suffering the inflation because the poorer countries subsidies it bad fiscal and monetary policy. Yet, 90% of American can survived an emergency tjat requied $1000. America is an African country. Their ignorance is sickening

They have a different service than bolt and Uber that drives you around a bring you food. Move. You need to try again. Bolt in Ghana from some places is horrible so I can relate but my move experience in Rwanda was good. Rwanda is one of the best countries Ive been to in Africa.

    25$ is not really a scam price, especially if you drive like 30mn. I live around 10 MN from the airport and I'm used to pay around 13$ so I don't think it's that expensive. For a 30mn drive locals would pay maybe 20$. Fuel prices got a rise of 40% since last year

    Your Airbnb experience reminds me of an experience I had in Gisenyi at a similar setting in December 2019 just before covid closed my country.
    The experience of their lethargic and slowness sank our spirit. I mean that place was a bit dirty though it looked clean and groomed from outside. Rwanda must invest more in hospitality industry training through suitable tourism colleges .
    Sometimes I wonder, does Rwanda enforce external cleanliness where people can see but does little due to revenue constraints to the inside of it's people's lives ? I saw people walking bare feet , limited vehicular traffic in towns and too many people relying on actually walking to get to places. Am I wrong ? Please someone tell me am wrong. Village life in Rwanda is a total contrast of roadside scenery not withstanding Kigali is a very small city but with great potential. The country is generally very clean and feels serene but with an air of someone watching over you. Were my feelings misplaced ? Please someone tell me something, .
    But bottom line is that President Kagame has put to good use that nations tax revenue with a strict sense of accountability. Somehow the Rwanda government had to start somewhere. They have the correct mindset and for sure skillsets will follow and through skillsets people will fit into the cogs of the economy which creates personal wealth.

Prices are cheap as a non local. 3 of us stuffed ourselves for about £18 including drinks at one of them. Once you convert to pounds or dollars, it is cheap and the food is good with lots to choose from.

    Big up for the honest. 😂Groceries with no groceries...
    Thing is in Rwanda they shop in the traditional Markets not in supermarket (3x mot expensive) 😂, if you try to go local it will be way Cheaper. Now Tanzania & K3nya are more 'fun'... They have access to sea, so it is easier. They're also huge economies, Rwanda is tiny and had to rise from ashes. Big up to 🇷🇼 🇰🇪 & 🇹🇿 for their brotherhood

I don't see 1 other country anywhere on Earth that have achieved what they have in Rwanda. Just imagine, there are countries in eastern europe and asia and the middle east that have been at each other's throats for centuries within the country and still no signs of uniting. God bless them and I pray for them to continue on this unprecedented path. As for the poverty so many have mentioned; poverty rate will fall as Education increases.

    Lol the main form of public transport in Rwanda is the motorcycle taxi. I spent five months in Rwanda and it took me about 1 week to get over the fact that Imma have to either rely on unreliable taxis or spend a lot for a driver. I dont have an infant like y'all so I just forced myself to being on the back of a motorcycle to get around. Now I just love moto taxis, I use them in every African country I visit...unless I can take a mini bus easily.

    The number 1 problem here is you guys coming from AMERICA need to get you'll attitude in check, and stop expecting everything to be perfect, NO PLACE ON EARTH Is, Especially AMERICA. 2, COMMUNICATION. Not every country speaks English so that means learning to find someone in the area that may help you with the language barrier, Question to you two, do you speak Rhuwandian Language? I'll wait, don't worry. 3, If you remember what our brothers and Sisters went through recently, the human resources they've lost, and still today, they are an example of community and country building despite this massive setback and evil they went through.
    Sure things could be better, but stop expecting the same thing you see or may have in the U.S., and enjoy the Freedom you've never and never will experience in you'll beloved AMERICA lol. Your AMERICAN Media, government, and Big Business have and are still spreading their propaganda about AFRICA as so poor and all the other negative stuff I've heard and am still hearing to this day.
    Do you'll research, learn about the environment of where you are going to visit in the Motherland, try your best to find credible information and someone or an organization to liaise with, for starters and then improvised when you get there, and so doing, you guy will have the best experience of our beautiful continent that we have been taking from in which we've lost our or part of our history, meaning those of us Living in the Diaspora like me and you.
    If you can't bring out the positives, then stay in America, or find a better way to make it work, because Africa needs and depend on every one of us to lift her up to her rightful place.

    Thank you very much for your video and I am very happy to see a young family setting out to explore the world (especially the African continent). As a experienced ex-pat who has lived in 6 different countries (I am born and raised in Florida), in which Rwanda was my home for 2+ years, where I found a beautiful wife, own property, and have a business. Let me give a few observations about this video along with a little advice based on my years of extensive international travel.
    1. Research is critical. I noted from your video that this is an area in which you can improve. Adequate research would have provided:
    1. The currency exchange rate
    2. Uber doesn't exist in Rwanda
    3. Grocery stores could have been located using Google Maps
    I'm not sure where your Airbnb was, but I always have a back up hotel just in case the Airbnb was unsatisfactory.
    There are markets in which to buy fresh organic vegetables and fruits. This is why advanced research is critical and will make your stay easier and hopefully avoid the headaches.
    I'm happy that you are exposing yourself to the world and experiencing true Melaninated Freedom ✊🏾 Safe travels and I'm excited for you
