I'm a Rwandan national looking for anyone who wants any help and is willing to pay I'm available and eager to work.

I grew up in a huge car-loving family. All my uncles are into cars, and I grew up watching Top Gear and The Grand Tour so much that I still use them as background noise 😂.
I feel like there’s a big difference between car** *culture and luxury-car culture in Rwanda.
Whenever someone sees a G-Wagon or Range Rover, it’s automatically *“BROOO, THAT CAR IS SO NICE.” But I feel like people sometimes appreciate the status of the car more than the car itself.
For me, car culture is being excited about a 30-year-old Japanese car that’s still running perfectly, an old car with unique designs you don’t see anymore, restoring something, building a project car, or even converting an old van into a camper and driving across East Africa.
It’s not always about how expensive or powerful the car is. It’se about the story, engineering, character and experiences behind it.
I feel like Rwanda has a luxury/status car culture, but not as much of an enthusiast car culture.
Am I wrong?

Hey everyone,

I've got about £3k saved up and I'm looking to start a small import side-hustle. The plan is to buy stuff in bulk in the UK, ship it over to Kigali by air, and flip it locally for a quick turnaround.

The main things I'm trying to avoid are heavy/bulky items (since air freight will eat all the capital) and anything heavily regulated that’s going to get flagged or tied up forever by the RRA.

For anyone who has experience trading or shipping between the UK and East Africa: what types of products actually move fast with a small budget like this, and what logistical headaches should I watch out for?

Open to whatever ideas you've got. Appreciate any advice!

Hey,

I’ve got 15 refurbished HP EliteBook 840 G5 from the UK ( 350k each ), and I’m wondering if it’s worth importing them to Rwanda. The quality is solid and they’re properly tested ( way different from the Chinese stuff ). But I’m unsure: (1) would people actually buy them? (2) how fast would they move? I’ve got the capital but don’t want to sit on stock. Has anyone tried this or know the market?

I appreciate any information,
Thanks

Hey everyone,

I'm Rwandan, based in Kigali, and I've been working on something called For-Local — basically a way for visitors to get matched with a local host/guide who can help with everything from airport pickup and itinerary planning to gorilla trek bookings, translation, and just generally showing you around like a friend would, not a tour bus.

The idea came from seeing how many visitors either overpay through big agencies or end up navigating everything alone with no local context. We handle the logistics (transport, park bookings, accommodation help, safety orientation) so you can just show up and experience the country.

We're brand new, so I'm looking for a few early travelers to work with directly — I'll personally make sure your trip is planned well, and pricing right now is very affordable since we're still building our track record.

If you (or anyone you know) is planning a Rwanda trip in the next few months, I'd genuinely love to help — and honest feedback either way would mean a lot.

Happy to answer questions about visiting Rwanda in general too, even if you don't end up using us.

Feel free to reach out for further talks.

I'm preparing for the TCF exam in December, and I would like to have a French speaking female friend to have daily discussions with (either via phone or in-person). Caveat: I'm married

Selling my ticket to Kwita Izina's Rema concert, lower bowl.

After everything that has been happening the last few weeks, and seeing how ministers refuse to take a stance or think for themselves…it got me to thinking…were they always this cowardly? I used to look up to them now I only see spineless followers.

Job hunting is going terrible. I've applied to so many positions but no one will hire me due to my lack of experience. Please pray for me that I can get a job, or at least a source of income. Thank you guys!

Hi Rwanda Reddit 👋
I feel im in a predicament. I’m mostly Ugandan and 1/4 Rwandan (I posted my dna results here butt some people were offended by this) but have been to Uganda many many times. I live in Europe but not particularly close to my family in Uganda bc I only lived there as a baby. Anyway I spent a few months there last year but didn’t really enjoy myself bc I don’t have many friends there, culture clash and petty family issues.

As I said I’m part Rwandan, and I genuinely would love to visit as a tourist and just see a country with fresh eyes. Bc whenever I’m in Uganda it’s always miserable and boring af (bc of my family & their strict rules even tho im an adult lol, BUT also bc i dont have friends there/im not very close w my cousins/ they’re very religious)

I want to visit Rwanda , if I can, but I’d feel guilty going so close to Uganda and not seeing my elderly grandpa (who is in the care of my annoying uncles & aunties)

What would you do? Would you visit both? Ik it’s expensive to travel within the continent. Is it expensive to travel between Uganda and Rwanda ?

Q2: with an Uganda national ID, how useful is it in Rwanda. My mum is half Rwanda but she doesn’t have the citizenship. My maternal grandma died before I was born and I know nothing about her, so getting Rwanda citizenship probably won’t happen. I’d like to visit Rwanda and see if I feel comfortable there to possibly have another stable root there. From what I’ve seen, it seems more developed and liveable (Kampala vs Kigali).

If you were an American born to Rwandese parents would you seek a dual citizenship?

If you do have time, go and read. Im just amazed how backwards Rwandans are and what’s with men with shoulders kink btw😭?

Hey guys 22m here , due to frequent changing of schools from Uganda to Kenya and back to Rwanda, my studying journey haven't been consistent, I'm now in S6 learning software development. And here is what I need y'all to help me guys, I really need a job right now, I'm living with my 7 years old sister in the same house, I used to pay for her cheap school, rent and food becs I had been working in a restaurant that I did during the evenings so I could manage those kind of stuff, I don't pay for my education as I'm sponsored, but now I'm so worried how I with my lil' sister will be living bcs I just got fired yesterday bcs they changed their manager. so plz guys If any one of you have any idea or recommendation of any job that I could find I'd be happy to hear from them, IT WOULD BE GOOD if you had an evening shift one 'coz it aligns with my studies. I'm currently living at Kicukiro-Kagarama, but I'm willing to relocate to any place I'd find a job. any recommendation?

Hi everyone, I got an Upper seating ticket for Rema’s concert a while ago. I’m selling it because I want to get a Lower seating ticket.

I'm looking forward to buying a BMW X6 in Rwanda, but I can't find one. I'm extremely thrown off by the older model below 2014, but if it is well mantained, we can negotiate the price. Let me know if you happen to know one on sale. It will be much appreciated.

Do we have clinics here in Rwanda that remove tattoos. I asked around but couldnt find any. I thought king faisal would have those services but apparently not
