Rwanda Cultural Night ...part 2
More Rwandan dances on stage.
This time they changed their attires and colors. Splendid...coz it means I could see another nuanced portrayal of its culture.
What I didn't expect was that...lots of people were on their feet....dancing along. Woa.^^
...after a rave dance...H.E. Ambassador of Rwanda to Korea, Ms. Emma-Francoise Isumbingabo.
She's delivering her speech and elaborating about Rwanda....and jokingly it would've taken days to talk about Rwanda...
...so she ended her speech and gave some tokens of gratitude to Kyunghee University for collaborating in the cultural night. Though I didn't clearly see what the picture was...I heard her mentioning about a gorilla in the picture.
...on another souvenir were the carved picture of an elephant and its baby elephant.
....and..that wrapped up the ceremonial.
...But then....another commotion emerged as people started to dance along with the dancers from Rwanda...
.of course...they're dancing to the beats of Rwandan style.
Woah...lots of people just flocked onto the stage and had a marvelous time!
....and....a warrior dance....using choreographed mouth as its instrument wrapped up the festival.
Picture taking time.
...and me with my fellow friend, Liman from Cameroon.
That's. ..Rwanda Cultural Night...and it's a poster I happened to see on campus.
Thanks to my friend, Clemence, for inviting me to savor the taste of Rwanda.
Nov.9.2015. Autumn night.
Rwandan Coffee Tasting
One of the much~awaited time was...the coffee tasting! Lots of people were queuing....
...for a cup of Rwandan coffee.
Yup...I got mine. Enjoy the taste of the world's best coffee.
That's the brochure of Rwanda, Kenya, and Uganda as the East African Community.
I kinda liked the idea of Borderless Borders proposed by these three countries which promote a single visa for three countries!
Yup...I'm using the brochure as the background of my cup of Rwandan Coffee...to signify its 'essence'
...even when I'm enjoying. .sipping my coffee. ..the line was..yet to finish. Some were still waiting for their turn^^
...that's how intriguingly tempting this Rwanda Coffee was. We're so curiously enticed by the idea of this exotic coffee.
Rwanda Cultural Night..part 1
My first time ever....enjoying a live African cultural show...this time from Rwanda.
Even the first opening dance was enough to make me understand a bit about Rwandan culture^^
Well...it's about how ladies take their shares in social life in Rwanda.
Each girl is carrying a kind of household stuffs made out of special grass..I learned.
The essential colors are...as seen in their attire...yellow...green...
...and blue....which are also featured in the national flag.
..the music was getting louder and its rhythm reminded me that..." yes...this is an African music" that I wanted to see live.
...with the male dancers on each side...the female dancers were getting even more enthusiastically in rhyme...
...oh I loved the way they kept on smiling all through the dance.
Yes...it's quintessentially African....Rwandan dance in this case.
Bravo to "Umucyo Dance Troop"
