    Welcome to Our Home!

    We are a family of four, with two energetic and curious sons, ages 6 and 8 and extended family
    As a family, we are self-motivated, hardworking, and love building friendships with people from all over the world.
    In the evenings, we enjoy playing games with our guests, like IGISORO (a traditional Rwandan game), card games, and board game. If you love games too, bring your favourite one! We’d love to learn it and exchange cultural experiences through play.
    We also love teaching guests how to play the Rwandan Traditional Drum, a fun and interactive way to experience our culture!
    Our home is always open, and we ensure our guests feel at home from the moment they arrive.
