Thanks Grace and Fiikazzo for that wonderful tour. We stayed in an apartment in Nyarutarama the first week of our three week holiday in Rwanda last year. In fact, I think I saw the apartment around 3 times in your video ! We love walking and it was so nice to see all of the streets that we had walked while there (we walked every part of your video so it brought back fond memories). I think we paid around $1200 for the apart for that first week. It was stunning, with amazing high ceilings, exceptional finishes and was massive. The large pool was too cold for us to use and it had a gym also which we didn't use either. Like most of Nyarutarama, the pool and gym were mostly for show. The only issue we had with the apartment was that when it rained heavily there was a foul smell coming back through the sewers into the building but as we discovered that this seems to be a problem everywhere in Kigali. Its a difficult one because when it rains it really rains and the sudden high volume of water would overpower most sewerage systems. The best part of the apartment had to be the staff, they were so lovely and friendly. They taught us KenyaRwandan ! Money makes money Grace... You could have visited the Tennis Club without being a member. We walked around it. Its quite small but quaint. Smallish swimming pool. Not all Rwandans have money. Most of the people who own properties in Nyarutarama are not from Rwanda. I never felt un-safe in Rwanda and we went everywhere, walking mostly. I only saw that green track being used once while we were there. People don't live in Nyarutarama, they are visiting temporarily. The weather in Rwanda is amazing, its cool because of the hills but warm enough because of the proximity to the Equator. You don't want to live in Nyarutarama Grace, its soul-less and sterile. There is no community feel, one evening we walked from the Convention center area home and although the streets were stunning from an Aesthetic perspective I reckon that we met less than 10 people on the walk. We moved to a much cheaper house in Kicukiro for the last two weeks of our holiday and it was so much nicer. There were actually real people living there. We met Rwandans and it was so much more enjoyable than that first week. Nyarutarama is not Rwanda or Africa, it seems to be what some Rwandans think that Kigali should be like. Its trying so hard to be like Europe. A golf course ? Really ? How many Rwandans could afford to buy a set of clubs, never mind pay the green fees to learn the game and practice. Golf is not necessarily a rich persons sport in Europe, however it does tend to attract pretentious snobs who want to be able to tell their friends that they play golf. Its a "look at me" sport to that extent. Once again, thanks to both of you for sharing this video with us. Safe travels. (go visit Kimironko market and see how much more vibrant it is compared to Nyarutarama)

[@graceyd]

You're right, Ronan. I noticed that most people living in Nyarutarama are tourists,I also lived in Kicukiro, and the prices in Kicukiro district are way affordable and easy to interact with locals in the neighbourhood. I'm happy to bring you some memories from your trip here in Rwanda.

Hi Miss Gracey, thank you for letting me sit in the back of your car as a ghost and I enjoyed the view like a breath of fresh air, everything about Kigali looks amazing the roads, the streets, the houses and the beautiful landscape captured me very deeply. I enjoyed every minute of this trip and thanks to your friend being by our side to help you.🙏🙏🙏🙏💓💓💓💓💞

[@graceyd]

Thank you Faisal, glad you enjoyed this episode

[@Waridi23]

I"m Kenyan but rwanda is my dream country to live in. I like that it's modern but still has it's sense of tradition. The way people interact with each other and are mindful of their environment and how they do things. I love it!

[@graceyd]

Me and you both 🤣 it's one of my favourite country in East Africa

[@fursklasugo1777]

I am Nigerian but WOW!!! This neighborhood is absolutely gorgeous. Would love to stay here when i visit Rwanda. Thanks for the video. Good quality as well

[@graceyd]

Thank you,you should try some airbnbs around there when you visit

[@Joel_Mugisha]

Very beautiful sceneries I like the fact that the hilly terrain makes it easy for us to enjoy the scenic beauty❤

[@graceyd]

Very beautiful views,Kigali is indeed a beautiful city

[@777cpt]

Great video, watching from Ireland, I would love to visit Africa someday and explore this wonderful continent

[@graceyd]

You welcome to this beautiful continent of ours ❤️

[@fibo2459]

Rwanda now looking cleaner and more organised then many European cities. The weather on the high plateau is terrific. I visited Burundi a few years back, but Bujumbura does not have any neighbourhood as developed and organised as Kigali. I will surely visit in 2025.

[@graceyd]

Thank you for watching

Feels great to be back.

Thank you for loving our country 😍 Are you still in kigali so that we can meet

[@Musuhuke_TV]

The green track I think is called a running track, I want to be on it soon, I drove along a part of it in January. When I come to Rwanda with so many other business priorities that I end up not doing many recreational activities that I was looking forward to doing.

[@graceyd]

Ooooh, yes,the running track,thank you

[@Musuhuke_TV]

@@graceyd Btw, there is new green running track at Kimihurura Roundabout park ku kabindi. Fikkazzo can take you or you can go there, only 5 minutes from Convention Centre going to downtown. You will like it too.

[@nsengimanaepaphrodite2482]

Gracey i love you so much because u love my country Rwanda thx still u home

[@graceyd]

Thank you so much💗💗

[@sathz1]

Watching this video I have the impression that Rwandans seem to be careful people who take great care of their cars. Cars that are sometimes more than 20 years old and look new. They drive slowly and intelligently. I really like this way of doing things. It's admirable to see the space given to pedestrians and athletes. Plus, all this greenery almost makes me want to cry, it's so beautiful!!! I will come and visit in 2025 for sure !

[@graceyd]

You sure will enjoy.

[@georgehosea139]

That jogging track is for recreation and for sports, for people to use and get fit

This city really is laid out and planned with its citizens in mind! My this area looks really posh, but at the same time, as per your other videos and others who have shown Kigali, the city at large is so green and clean and orderly! You just have to give Rwanda its flowers!

Dear #CongolesePeople, Your stupidity and dirty mind will not let you grow and prosper. Do you know how many refugees from DRC that Rwanda hosts because of your own problems? Do you know how many Congolese working and doing business in Rwanda safely?? On the other hand, do you know how many Rwandafone people are being killed in DRC??? You are just there talking and talking, let the world show you the real Rwanda.
