Detailed Description

Rwandans on their journey, ask for directions to make sure that they have taken the right direction to the destination. I admire some of the tourists who decide to take their tents and other necessary camping equipments and cover long distances by foot like local people. We are going to have a conversation of people who have started their journey to visit their relatives who live a bit far from their home. They take all the pain to walk there and come back home very tired. In Rwanda, it is also challenging and very difficult to get where someone lives in residential areas of Kigali or of any city because the dwellers have built their houses without a government city housing plan. They have no references in terms of street, avenue, road, and boulevard etc. the way it is in America, Canada, Europe, and elsewhere . However, there are some referral points which people use in the process of giving a direction to someone. Then, from those particular well known spots, people may be directed to the intended destination.
