Just a quick update— I am safe in Kigali! It’s about 6 pm here on Wednesday. We started bright and early Monday with our kinyarwanda, French and engineering lessons. Im having an awesome time. My homestay is so sweet and we have been doing a lot! Monday evening we went into town on a “taxi” which is actually a large van that holds about 30 people including the driver and the monkey boy. It costs about 150-200 Rwandan Francs each ride, which is approximately 25 cents. Last night we went to a bar for our new friend Alex’s birthday!! He is from Rwanda and goes to school in South Africa so he can speak English very well. The wifi isn’t the best here so I think I am going to buy a MTN Internet modem and 5Gb of Internet and see how well that lasts. Email is going to be the best mode of contact at this point. Miss and love EVERYONE! More details when I have more time to write. Xox
