I think we need a moment as a collective, to reflect on all the historic moments we just lived in a span of two weeks.

This triggers sth too close to home! To loose such a youthful, close friend (sibling in love) so suddenly, is indescribably painful and hard to face. My heart aches for all of you, and his family!

I can’t help but notice the cognitive bias (just wanted to use big English), but really, how people reach conclusions without taking the time to break down facts and data, in some of the comments on the viral “Visit Rwanda” picture, is triggering!
Thank to you to everyone who sent their resumes and made enquiries about the opportunity. There were so many responses that I cannot respond individually to each one of you. I will forward the resumes I have already received. For those who are still inquiring:
