Rwandan dreams

Our guide was Tim, but he’s not on the above list. We LOVED Tim and plan to visit again and use him as our guide. His love of his job and country was obvious and infectious! He knew so much about the country and was willing to do whatever we wanted/needed. He took us to local stores to help us shop for various things that we wanted–even late at night after a long drive back to Kigali from gorilla trekking (I was able to buy some lovely teas that I am still hoarding). When I mentioned to Tim that we’d like to visit other areas of Rwanda on our next visit, he made gave me travel brochures on other regions of the country so we could outline what we’d like to do and where we’d like to go next time. He also helped us to learn and speak some basic Kinyarwanda phrases–despite my short comings in pronunciation, the flight attendant on our flight out of Kigali was impressed! We did met Norbert and he was a very nice guy too!
