Arriving late Friday night, and leaving for the country side the morning after! A 2 1/2 hour busdrive brings you to a cloister in Kibuye, on top of a hill looking over the beautiful lake Kivu.
The temperatures here surely make you happy for a morning swim! And, the nuns and priests who were gathering and singing there on Sunday were fun to talk to and practice some first words in the local language 'Kinyarwanda'.
After these three days of relaxing and working (for Mikkel) we returned to Kigali for a hectic week of house-hunting and (for me) job hunting. I had my first meeting for a potential job opportunity with Heineken yesterday... Interesting!
Kigali is extremely un-hectic! No traffic jams, no hassle, no noises (uh yeahm, birds tweeting and choirs singing) and kids just run up to you to give you a shy handshake and tell you their name.
We now have a temporary place to stay with a lovely lady and a lot of (unwelcomed) animals. - Although the bat hanging on the balcony is pretty cute.
For now... getting ready for our first friday night out in Kigali.
Happy weekend!
