As an American 🇺🇸 that has been 2 times to Rwanda 🇷🇼 I will admit that it’s cleaner than 🇺🇸
Can describe how your trips were like?
Perfect weather, cleanness, beautiful people, and more more what else can you want love Rwanda 🇷🇼.
Rwanda all the way I am a Nigerian and Ghana but you see Rwanda that’s where I will make my own family, and I believe in future Rwanda will be more better than now God this country Is so beautiful😊
Welcome to Rwanda brother 🙏
I have a lot of Rwandans friends in zambia
Very humble people
God bless you 🇿🇲🇿🇲
Oh that's how they come but their on mission...Very dangerous people...They only knows to kill...Feel sorry for them but in the next 30years they gonna take over your country...Never trust a Tutsi as they think their superior to bantu people and that they must lead over the bantu people...
Yiu know nothing about them
@@othumanlorenzo260 so they don’t have bad manners, don’t stare and greet you when you walk in a restaurant?
@@othumanlorenzo260 i know a lot about the them
They are good people and we love them like that in Zambia
I can't speak evil on a human being who has never wronged any Zambian and including myself
I like when a black man is telling stories about Africa. Bless up bro
I agree with you but many Europeans are really saying good things about Rwanda 🇷🇼 but I understand you I really admire this country my country uk 🇬🇧 was so clean but now pot holes 🕳️ on the road and we were such a clean country I remember we never had plastic bags we had paper and straw bags lol 3 hours late there culture is like Thailand they won’t say what they feel
Rwanda is a welcoming country for every human being
Kagamé a apporté un esprit positif de progrès et de grandeur au Rwanda. Fier du Rwanda
As opposed to our city Nairobi which is too fast, noisy, overcrowded, chaotic, dirt everywhere, BIG UP Kigali. The place is really organized. No apologies.
honestly i met wonderful people in nairobi.
I noticed that with the rain as well. While I was in Kigali, I found it interesting that people would stop their activities to watch the downpour from the shelter of buildings or overhangs.
Rwanda really looks quite interesting. It's amazing that they've put the terrible conflict from the 90s behind them so quickly.
Believe, me You are right. though some people might still be having healing scars. but it looks like nothing even happened. the cohesion among rwandans is even underrated.
Rwanda is very clean and beautiful
Wow! Cleanliness of the city is just amazing. Big Up Brothers and sisters in Rwanda👍🇿🇦
I love slow-living and rain, sounds perfect
If africa dominates itself then we won't need to look oversees for visions, development ideas and futuristic goals. Keep the good work
I don't get stares, and it's rainy season, so it rains on and off. Kigali is cool. Chick's are curvy. Property is still relatively inexpensive. Building is simple and affordable. In all it's a great place to live and do business.
lol.
Rwanda is RWANDAFUL. I'm so glad I came. And I just got my 2 year business visa... so I'll be stuck here for the next 2 years :D
Good morning
am interested in the business visa, pls how did you go about it
@@babajideadeyanju5518 I was told it is very hard to get one. You need to invest a lot of money in businesses that locals are not starting (think agro-processing, manufacturing, architecture , IT... things of that nature).
But if you just want to open small shop and sell noodles and bread etc. then you won't get approved.
I was told by a Nigerian lady that its best to start a Air-B-n-B .... lease a large house with 5-10 bedrooms.... then sub-lease those room on air-b-n-b.... they would approve something like that.
I started an online business in the "fin-tech" industry.... because I have the skills for that, but don't do that thinking you will get approved just coz they approved me.
First get a tourist visa for 3 months, then while there register your business and then apply for the business VISA. The immigration office and RDB can help you with those 2 things.
All the best.
@@jzk2020 thank you very much, am a Professional Graphic Designer and a Print Expert, basically 80% of my work are done online, I will buy my ticket to rwanda in 2 weeks time, thank you so much for your response
@@babajideadeyanju5518 Good luck my brother, try to apply for the z2 business visa for professionals.... hopefully you will get it.
You are welcome
Hold my beer Rwanda 🇷🇼 am coming and greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
As long as you not a negropean
Pass through Kenya
@@musicmatters1226 for sure 👍🏿
As a Rwandan I testify that young Rwandans know English while the elderly rwandans their learning process was taught in french that's why you will find some Rwandans having a hard time with English they are still trying to adapt with the changes and others are advanced with English
I noticed that too! But your country is beautiful and your people very welcoming.
They don't have to adapt, they are home. Their native lingo is just fine
@Irene Rasekhula-Mangan I can't agree more, I visited Ethiopia too, and one thing I loved there was people speaking their native tongue and fully embracing who they are. Challenging for me as a foreigner, but I wish other African countries could go back to speaking their languages.
@@irenerasekhula-mangan2118 I agree. Even though I don't understand the language of Kinyarwanda, it sounds so beautiful just listening to those speaking it.
I am still very impressed by your clean, almost spotless streets and sidewalks.
Very nice!
This is great news, 30 years makes all the difference. Every country deserves prosperity, their people just have to make it happen.... Rwandan men would be in for quite the culture shock in the US
This is great about Rwanda. Before now, I thought the place won't be that okay as a result of the news one used to hear about the country. Kigali is a great place to be as seen through this video. Thanks for showing this about Rwanda. I wish to visit the country one day. I am proud to be an African.
I just got back from Rwanda and it is a GREAT place! I hope to be back over there soon.
I was here last year visiting with my brother. Loved it.
I will definitely visit Rwanda soon
Mmm! Big up to Rwanda continue to shine like a 🌟,all the way from South Africa
11:40 In my village in Western Cameroon, there are 8 rainy seasons that is from mid March to mid November and 4 dry seasons. It can easiy rain for a whole day
I met a Rwandan in the United Sates in the '90s and for 10 years I knew him, I could never guess what he was thinking. You would meet and agree on some plan and he would never follow up. He wouldn't give any reason and after some time I cut off the friendship. I did not know how to deal with that lifestyle. We had mutual friends who abandoned his butt, too. He is from Kigali.
You did the right thing
11:00 That is exactly how we make our bricks in my village in Western Cameroon, proudly African!
I’ve just booked a week in Rwanda for the family and I for next year. Love your content. Many thanks.
I'm from one of the dirtiest countries in Africa, South Africa and to see Rwanda this clean it's beautiful. Keep it up.
Wait Tumi. I am a traveler myself and based in the USA and to say South Africa is one of the dirtiest countries in the world is false and misleading. South Africa is of the cleanest countries in the continent of Africa and you clearly have not traveled out of South Africa. Wait a minute, you are not even South African. You are a troll
@charlottemotsepe84 I'm South african and living in South Africa. When did you travel to South Africa?
South Africa, since 2020, everything has been deteriorating. From the infrastructure to basic condition of living and the environment. It's bad
@06:55 I assume this is a common thing in many African traditions. You're taking it in eurocentric manner. In many African traditions, when you arrive at a place where people are already there you are the one who should greet, not the other way round. You are the bad mannered one. Even before you ask for service it is well mannered to greet first. I suspect that's why they seem to be starring at you. It is because they're expecting you to greet.
You have no idea what you are talking about. Rwandans know basic customer service, many just chose not to practice it because of maybe ego, tiredness or poor training. Even the locals complain about this problem, and the government has attempted to correct it. Stop trying to argue.
@peleqetelo8734 If you know the people at the place where you are going, then greeting will happen naturally from both sides. Not just one side. When people go to a restaurant, the staff are supposed to greet their guests 1st. That happens way before a guest asks for service. What sense does it make to walk into a restaurant, and the staff doesnt welcome their guests 1st? But as soon as they want service, the guests are supposed to greet the waiter 1st? That doesnt make any sense.
You have to get in the door and be acknowledged by the staff before you get to sit down. In some cases, someone takes you to your seat. The initial greeting usually starts with the staff upon entry or when a waiter comes to take orders.
"Hello, welcome" And then the guest should respond.
I totally agree and I'm Rwandan...
Thanks for the glimpse of Rwanda. I don't like the uncertainty that comes with traveling, but kigali looks like a nice place for an extended stay.
This is one of the best videos on an Afrikan country that I have seen. Great job!
Thanks for the wonderful comment brother.
Your videos really made me yearn to visit rwanda.....had friends from there in the past but they've never told me alot about Rwanda as you do.thanks and keep on keeping on😁
Very informative & interesting video. Thank you. Please make more!
It's great you are taking our lovely country to the world but i don't like the fact that you comparing Rwanda with U.S or any other countries those are two different countries we have our problems and we are finding our own solutions our own way.
What makes Rwanda unique in Africa is the way she deals with social problems. You will see no hawkers, beggars, homeless and mad people roaming around in Kigali. Also the police are well equipped to deal with crime. I am struggling to make money so that I relocate and retire in Kigali
I am very offended by your ignorance no such thing as unique in anywhere!!
@@thedolamitechannel2756 Rwanda has problems but they have tried to deal with them. There is no real democracy but at least appreciate the fact that the country is well organized. Visit other 'democratic' African capitals and see the mess they are in then you will understand what am saying
Rwanda do you have children beggars.
@@anthonyclementson9658 is that even a question? Or a statement?
@@georgepresley5120 You probably haven't been to other African countries. Rwanda is not even the safest country in Africa nor the richest. In fact, It is still relatively poor. I like the cleanliness and safety records and I hope it will improve further. Please, stop speculating here.
Actually, it is not shocking, I have seen several people saying the same .. I watched some videos showing how clean and beautiful is Rwanda .. I hope one day to visit this beautiful country
Thanks for the content man! I saw you at Makuza plaza.
Im so glad to see Rwanda to be like this🖐
Universal health insurance for $2 per "year"? Did I hear that correctly....
Yessir, that’s how it is here in Rwanda
@@miggymigambi973 Wow!!!!, well I've been wanting to visit anyway just to see how clean the city is. I've heard nothing but good things.
It means you only have to pay 2dollars per year to have a universal health insurance
@@Super.Nova.Kesiride Yeah Ofcourse
Bull...
So beautiful and so clean, love that place....
Paul kagame, must goto heaven whether God likes it or not. A country is a reflection of it's ruler(s). Rwanda a tiny forgotten,war and poverty riden African backwater, transformed by a lanky laid back cerebral man. Paul kagame is an African living legend.
This is such a balanced view and interesting. GREAT clean country...
Love from South Africa🙌👏
You had me at "no weave" 😂
Love to Rwanda, Greetings from Namibia
8:10 Nice to see my fellow Cameroonians out there.
What is shocking is not for this channel!!! Trust me there is a lot and you need to see it for yoursel without a guided tour.
Informative video! And a beautiful country!
11:53 I was so shocked seeing people in Europe and Asia working and operating swiftly during rainy days. I am from Botswana in Southern Africa just like Rwanda we find shelter during rainy days and there is very little work done especially outdoors.But my country is 89% a desert here so there is not much rain.
But it got cold frigid weather from what I have seen
@@thedolamitechannel2756 Botswana? Nope it gets very hot here and the winters are cool around 18 degrees Celsius. But in the desert the mornings and nights do get below 0 in winter.
this comes down to simple things as heat in the house, cars and dryers. Drying your clothes and warming your body in the developed countries is easy!
As an African who lives in Europe, I can tell you the reason😊
In Africa, if it starts raining, it stops after hours. In Europe, if it starts raining, it may keep raining for days or weeks. So, can you imagine staying for days or weeks without working (only because of rain)?
Don’t know about Europeans, but for Eastern Asians (China, Korea, Japan and Taiwan), they will work 12 hours a day thru the rain, sun and snow. 😁
They are human machines that never stop working and operating, and their children never stop studying.
Wonderful informative videos 📹 🤝🏾
Very thorough video!!
Thank you for visiting and welcome again. Thank you also for letting your audience know about my country. You are all welcomed. Our leaders are doing whatever they can to make us live a better life.
Thank you bro
Rwanda has come from far, being our neighbors i see alot in common.
Here come miss red she don’t take no prisoners…. She is sincere and raw what you see and what you get…
Admirable, someday i will pay a visit there.
Wow beautiful cities much love from Zambia
Amazing content about Rwanda. Thank you sir. for sharing this video and I enjoyed watching.🙏🙏🙏 Greetings from Sweden
Maintain Peace. Peace is SWEET. Peace, love and unity brings joy in our society. Together We Stand
liked and loved this place from pakistan.greetings
A lot of places in Africa are well made and organized. You would have to travel through all the countries to see this. For instance Nigerian cities (Lagos minus the open market parts), Abuja, Portharcourt, Jos etc like Europe. Seychelles, South Africa, Algeria, Egypt, Morocco, Libya, have beautiful environment as well. All over Africa. No such thing as 1st world and 2nd or 3rd world country etc. There is developed, developing our underdeveloped
Lagos is not well made or organized whatsoever. I have to question your judgement.
@@WillieFungo Well make a city and organize it yourself. It's an old city and too many people. However, it is wealthier and has more infrastructure than many African countries. However, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. You can design and organize as you wish.
Are you kidding me? Libya is a hell hole in the middle of a civil war and Egypt isn't far behind, wtf!
....oh and the crime rate in Nigeria is some of the worst on the planet. You may want to fact check yourself
@@WillieFungo Ummm, being one of the richest cities in Africa, even though I have never been there, I would assume there are some parts of Lagos that are stunningly beautiful, organised and clean. Cant compare Rwanda with big countries.
The accuracy is on another level. Kudos to you!
👨🏾💻 Great informative Vîdē0. . . . .........
..... . . As usual. Thanks.👍🏾
Go Rwanda, you are doing a great job..we are watching from Jamaica..
Balanced analysis in all aspects of life
Thanks for the video
Thank for the view🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Rwanda has learnt the hard way by blood. They have a benevolent dictator who happens to be a darling of the west. Africa needs such leaders, at least for now.
I admire Rwanda.
Your videos are awesome ✊🏿
About people being forthright you got that one quite on point and yes they treat foreigners differently
The time factor seems to me like it's a problem not just Rwanda but Zambia too. I hate to assume it could be an African problem even if I have not travel much. It's a pity that you call not been greeted by waiters as bad manners, I wouldn't call it that but just a difference in cultural behavior. Like you won't hear many Southern African nationals say thank you, because as kids we expressed gratitude by kneeling, bowing or receiving things with two hands and a sign of respect
Thought the same. Very Amercian view of things in general...
Having to verbally call a waitress to your table is bad customer service. Also, white tourists rarely have to go through this. Sometimes, you need to just accept realities about Africa.
My fiancee is rwandese and she let me know that there's no word for saying thank you in their native language. If they want to say thank you, they will speak french or English. So I agree it's definitely cultural and linguistic differences. As far as the tardiness goes I'm not sure why it's like that because rwandans on average work 28 hrs per week so they have plenty of time lol.
@@eastsidepb8139your fiance lied to you.Thank you in Kinyarwanda is"MURAKOZE"
Kigali is beautiful, no doubt. I share the same experience with the customer attitude which is very strange in a country thriving on the service industry. , I was offended initially but I later got used after noticing that it was widely spread. Its probably as result of not having a culturally diverse society - i don't
Nice video, thanx for sharing....=)
Awesome 👏🏽
I'm definitely visiting Rwanda...been following some of their women on IG and they gad damn beautiful!!!
Very true about the rain phobia lol 😆..I have friends here who will not go out because its raining 😄
Hope to visit one day there soon
You're welcome 😊
ONE THING YOU FORGET MY FRIEND
NUMBER ONE IS ( SECURITY )
We have security here, as Rwandan I proud of that. Thx.
Welcome.
Great job 👍
Kenyan hotels may have the best hospitalities, excellent services and attendents.
I'm proud of my mother land 😘 Rwanda
Great video
in Nigeria people work under the rain, ut rwanda is awesome, the neatness is topnotch
Damn, Rwanda is clean as a whistle
Rwanda looks better than many cities in America
I'm hoping to relocate to Rwanda for business and I hope I can find that special one there too.
As a Rwandan we welcome 🤗
Beautiful ladies wow city so clean
People stay indoors due to lightening strikes many have been struck dead. So safer to stay indoors.
Kigali is like Switzerland. Could be a model for all developing countries. What a blessing.😊
love kigali,,, its my next vist
We Ethiopians don't go out on the rain we just stay until the rain is gone😆
Ethiopia rain ☔ and rwanda rain ☔ is different
@the dolamite channel I didn't know, but one day I would come and visit and see beautiful Rwanda❤
@@thedolamitechannel2756 They are close by countries so probably not that much.
A beautiful country to visit god bless Rawanda 🙏 ❤
Beautiful
hello am a Rwandan, I really don know about others but for me if I ever get a chance to be financially independent am never going out Rwanda😊 even if I can I will make sure that I return quick cz I don know how I can leave with out this air, love,natural,peaple
Hello..I'll be coming to Rwanda for a USA visa interview
I would like to visit Kigali one day
Looking forward to see you in Nairobi
Lovely
Rwanda is so beautiful
much love from kenya,,,i appreate the natural beauty of Rwandan ladies,,i'll probably marry from rwanda
I'm visiting Rwanda from Papua New Guinea.
Wow! That's awesome
Papua Merdeka! Let me know once you hit the ground
@@thedolamitechannel2756 Wow my brother nice to know you are there. 🤝
@@ishmaellee3926 yes I follow events on the ground. Free west Papua movement and all it would be my pleasure to finally meet a Papua in real life. The only South pacific people I met so far are the 🇫🇯.
@@thedolamitechannel2756 That's right brada. We are together in this movement. Your fight is my fight. Probably next year I'll plan to come.
If I was a company owner thinking about relocating there, everything shutting down on frequent rainy days would certainly give me pause about setting up shop there
Although of course weather-related shut downs aren’t unheard of elsewhere.
