Adrift in a Sea of Rolling Hills

My time in the Pays des Mille Collines

My My Moto

Want to get anywhere in Rwanda? The moto will take you.

These little machines that sometimes resemble no more than a motorized bicycle cover every corner of this country. Throughout the country, the motos are the transport system from the most remote houses to the nearest bus stop to anywhere else you might go.

In Kigali, it’s less than a dollar to get most everywhere in the city.

Cheap point-to-point public transportation. Not a bad idea if it weren’t for the absurdly high accident rate. It seems everyone has far too many moto accident stories and death is not uncommon.

But they sure are fun.
