I received guests these past few months. It’s a lot of work to organize and try to fill the time with as much experiences as possible. In some cases the logistics get complicated. But it is so refreshing to see Burundi through the eyes of others. The day-to-day life can pull me into the routine, and the struggle, and frustrations grow into cynicism. Fresh eyes can reveal His presence here and help to lift my head. I’m grateful for the chance to welcome visitors.
Burundi is really good at welcoming visitors, perhaps the best I’ve experienced across my visits to other countries in Africa (I could be bias). The Burundi people are proud of their country and extend their very best to ensure guests are honored and have a good time. I’ve learned a lot about hospitality from my Burundian friends.
So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing.
