Kigali, the capital of Rwanda, is a city that surprises many with its friendly people and beautiful views. Imagine clean air, green hills, and safe streets where you can walk around even after dark. Some might find the culture a bit traditional and isolated, but you can enjoy the kindness of the locals who are generally welcoming, especially if you take the time to talk to them. However, be ready for a few challenges. Traffic can be a bit busy, and while mototaxis are a common way to get around, you should be careful as they can be a little wild at times. Shopping options are limited and sometimes expensive, so bring your bargaining skills when dealing with taxi drivers and sellers. And while restaurants offer good food, don’t expect anything too fancy; the food scene is rather basic. If you’re looking for adventure, a trip to Lake Kivu or Volcanoes National Park is a must. Just remember, Kigali’s appeal comes from its calmness and the possibility of growth; it's a place great for... those who enjoy a slower lifestyle and the chance to experience a different culture.
