If I could share with you...

We can send words and photos but I would also send you:

the smell of fertile earth mixed with aromas of eucalyptus trees

gentle breezes through leafy Kigali

the taste of a perfectly ripe avocado, mango, pineapple, banana, passion fruit

strong African gingery tea when one's caffeine levels have reached rock bottom

Africancanadianization, that wonderful phrase developed by Paulin that speaks to the magic that happens when the best of our Rwandan and Canadian cultures merge

the lightbulb moments when learners understand 

the smiles, always the smiles

friendship, is it ever this good?

cinnamon ice cream at Inzozi Nziza

green terraced hills with misty mountains beyond

I send you this and more.

  1. I've been catching up on all the blogs this morning. Thank you to all who have contributed. It makes me think of how far this program has developed since the first visits. Great reads everyone! That ice cream sounds and looks delicious. Would love to try that ginger tea! Keep up the great work everyone. 👍👍👍
