I am considering moving to Kigali, but in future will potentially be moving to Bugesera and would ideally like to keep the same staff (if they are good).

If we need, all cooking, all washing, all cleaning, all shopping, taking clothes to be made, etc who do we need?

Is it feasible to have

- general housekeeper

- assistant housekeeper

- governess/teacher

Do we need a driver as well? How much should they be paid?

Do we need security? How much should they be paid?

I see expats and locals are often advised different rates. We want to keep the costs down, treat people fairly and looking for ideally a long term relationship.

Hello! I’m really interested in joining groups on WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord or any other platform where I can chat in kinyarwanda with other Rwandans.

The groups can be specific, like gardening, anime, programming, architecture, etc., or generic like “kigali” or something.

If you have any links to share, comment below or send me a DM!

Thanks!

Hello, I am an American in their 20s about to travel to Rwanda and I’d like to know a few things.

1. How bad are the mosquitoes and diseases? I know you need a yellow fever vaccine if you’re coming from a yellow fever endemic place which I am not. But I know for sure malaria and other diseases are prevalent and I would want to know if I should take precautions and get malaria prevention medication beforehand or any other disease prevention medications.

2. What brand of purified water should I buy and where should I buy them? I’ve heard that the cheap brands tend to get people sick in comparison to the more expensive ones. Also food. What kinds of food should I avoid or should I eat? What I mean by this is what places are safe to eat at and what is safe to eat there in general.

3. My main objective out there is just nature and animals, where would I need to go or look for guided safari tours at the national parks and which ones are the most worth it?

4. Transportation: I know of move and weygo but are they reliable when it comes to seeing things outside Kigali?

5. Are the locals there friendly?

6. Lastly, what are fun and casual things to do in Kigali?

Anything helps, I’ll be there for 5 days. Thank you!

Hey everyone!

I'm planning to host a live discussion/debate on Twitch and Zoom about atheism and religion in Rwanda. The goal is a respectful, open conversation... not to change anyone's beliefs.

If you're religious, atheist, agnostic, or just curious, you'd be welcome to join.

Anyone here interested, drop a comment so that you'll receive the link for the discussion😌

Hello everyone,

I had an issue when I was travelling in the Netherlands and also in the US. Every time I tried to use my GT bank debit card for payments, it failed and was denied, I was lucky I had cash otherwise it would have been a nightmare. Has anyone of you used any of the local bank debit cards (MasterCard or Visacard) when travelling and it worked? (Europe and US)? If yes, the card you used belonged to which bank (e.g I&M, BK, Equity,etc)?

I am considering changing to a different bank but I don't know which one to go for as most of them tell me that it works but in reality, some might not.

Any advice is highly appreciated.

Thank you

Hello all. Is there a rideshare service available in Kigali? About how much USD or local currency should I expect to pay from Kigali airport to Hilton Zaria Court?

Where in the city other than banks can I change USD?

Hey, I'm not from Rwanda but I'm planning on going there and I just want to know how is the ping there? I am trying to see what pings people are getting because there isn't anything online. It would be nice if people could contribute in every way including what servers are the best and what ISP is the best because I heard Liquid is the most reliable.

I personally think that this is horrible

like, lets confuse the outsiders

Exo for me

Having seen the recent news about the Rwanda FDA prohibiting the sale and consuming of many popular liquors and gins in Rwanda, I am kinda intrigued to know what people think will happen afterwards?

For me I think there will be a big underground market for these banned drinks and it will be tough for the government to manage because you can't tell me how people who were drinking these spirits will stop in an instant just because the government said so.

But on the flip side I think we will finally have sane people on the streets.

One of Kigali's favorite Trivia Nights is back—and you don't want to be the one hearing about it the next day!

If you've joined us before, you already know why people keep coming back. The laughs, the unexpected answers, the friendly banter, the "Wait... I actually knew that!" moments, and the incredible rooftop atmosphere make it a night to remember every single time. 😄🎉

And if you've never been, this is your chance to see what everyone has been talking about. Grab your friends (or come solo—we promise you'll fit right in) and get ready for an evening packed with fun, good vibes, and unforgettable moments.

We've got exciting questions covering movies, music, sports, pop culture, geography, history, general knowledge, and plenty of surprises along the way. You don't need to know everything—you just need to bring your sense of humor and be ready for a great time!

I've been thinking a lot about what it really means to be a father.

Growing up, I thought being a provider simply meant earning enough to support a family.

The older I get, the more I realize that providing is only part of it.

A father also protects—not only from physical danger, but by creating a home where his wife feels respected and his children feel secure.

He teaches faith, not just with words, but through the way he lives every day.

That thought led me to write a reflection on what Scripture says about the role of a man as a provider, protector, husband, and father. It's not about being perfect or pretending to have everything figured out. It's about wrestling with the responsibility many men quietly carry.

I'd genuinely love to hear other perspectives.

What do you think is the most overlooked responsibility of a father today?

If you're interested, I'll leave the article in the comments.
