Dear friends,
First let me thank all are which following and supporting our saga, by accessing and reading our blog! We dedicate this blog to Rwandans and also all those which want to know a little about Rwanda .
In response to the first post, I searched a few fun facts and important information about Rwanda . (I ask our bloggers, feel free to use the space for comments of amakurublog).
Do you remember Carmen Miranda (Carmen Miranda was a singer and actress Luso-Brazilian. Her eclectic style makes is considered a precursor of Tropicalia, Brazilian cultural movement emerged in the late 1960s.)? Maybe not, I myself do not remember it. When I was born, she had already died. However, her work is known worldwide. And rightfully so, she is considered a great artist. One of her "Marchinhas de Carnaval" ( Carnival songs) says: "O que que a baiana tem?" ("What does baiana have?"). (BAIANA the same that girls has born in Bahia-Brazil ). Soon replace it for Rwanda ! What does Rwanda have? What Rwanda has a curious and interesting to show the world? Why invest in Rwanda ?
Whenever I search about Rwanda , meeting reports, books, photos and much information about the genocide. I will talk little about it for two reasons: respect for the suffering of those lived and because there are memorials and persons subject matter experts for comment. In my opinion, genocide is a matter of shame for all, regardless of their nationality. Constructing memorials and museums that explain the matter, is an important tool so that everyone knows and seeks alternatives to a better world. A country that does not know your past, there isn't way to build a decent future.
Every day, I find unexpected surprises about Ruanda . I say surprised because it is not easy to find updated information and the most incredible, ALL the information are of the genocide. Finding this information was difficult. PLEASE, SEARCH BEYOND the genocide! WRITE BEYOND the genocide! BELIEVE: RWANDA HAS MUCH MORE TO OFFER!!
Let's go the curiosities!
The main products of exports are coffee and tea.
Lake Kivu is one of the largest lakes in Africa . It is an important natural boundary delimiting the Republic of Congo and Rwanda . Below this lake is a volcano. It is termed as explosive lake, containing methane and carbon dioxide in its composition. About two million people from the two borders, living at the margins of this lake.
It is a country with an abundant vegetation and hilly. It has so many hills which is called the Land of a Thousand Hills.
Lately, I think Rwanda is the country of a Thousand Smiles. So we have a big challenge: My partner and me will take ONE THOUSAND pictures of SMILES RWANDAN in the months when we are in Rwanda . (DON'T PLAGIARISM! This challenge is of the AMAKURUBLOG!)
WELCOME TO COUNTRY OF THOUSAND SMILE!!!!
