I suspected it all along... Not everywhere on the planet do people start each morning by fighting for access to the bathroom, before commuting to work in overcrowded public transport and be in an office until 5:00 PM carrying some superfluous tasks with people they’d rather stay away from...
The polar opposite to this dark and gloomy stereotyped picture is a Rwandan awakening, in the hills of southern Rwanda...
No fighting for hot showers – they do not exist. No commuting to work: no car and no office to go to... Instead, the sound of birds early in the morning, followed shortly by the mewing of cows and voices of human beings talking to each other from far away, some on their way to the fields, or checking the cattle, children singing, laughing.
Beautiful misty morning, beautiful people, gentleness of simple lives! Would hot showers change all this?
