Before trekking with gorillas, I’ll spend time in Kigali, Rwanda’s capital, staying at the Hôtel des Mille Collines. This hotel became a refuge during the 1994 Rwandan Genocide, a story depicted in the 2004 film Hotel Rwanda starring Don Cheadle. I didn’t realize its historical significance when I booked but now feel inspired to embrace this history. I plan to visit the Kigali Genocide Museum to deepen my understanding. Since the conflict, Rwanda has made remarkable strides toward peace and prosperity. I love that Kigali’s goals include “happy and healthy residents.” A city is its people, and that’s a goal worth celebrating! Countdown to flight day: 98! 🦍

What a spot - the Hotel des Mille Collines! I wonder what vibes this place has🙂 When we were at college, our International Law professor showed us a documentary about Rwandan genocide... That was a strong, heartbreaking statement...😔 🙏 Even though such acts are universally condemned, they continue to occur. 💢 💢 😔 😔

I'm wondering the same thing about the vibes. I plan to share as much as I can during my trip. I'll let you know what I think. It would benefit so many if we could figure out how to live peacefully. I'm holding out hope that one day we will. 🙏

Ugghh. In that case, it seems up to the masses to identify and condemn those behaviors for the greater good. Our tools to share information and work together are getting better.
