Datasheets are in my opinion the most useful contribution a Traveller can bring to this forum and I have benefited a lot from them in the past. However, the cities covered are usually the same. Very little information has been written on Cities in Africa, so I decided to contribute with a Datasheet on a new city hoping to motivate more people to write on cities that haven't been covered before.
Kigali is one of Africa’s fastest growing hub for expats to live in. I’ve visited more than half of africa’s countries and can attest that this place is definitly one of the best to game for several reasons. First of all, its beautiful. Perched up in the mountains at around 2000 meters, the city is built on top of 1000 hills. Second, Their President Paul Kagame is known as a hero to have converted from a Genocidal ruined city just 20 years ago, to one of the most modern city to live in Africa. Third, Its full of expats from all over europe, mostly girls, working in NGOs, which seem to be more interested in partying and hooking up around with local guys than doing their job (I wasn’t really looking at them, as they tend to be HB6 and lower blue hair feminists and vegan type of chicks, almost 95% of them)…
Now the beauty of Kigali lies on a the fact that it is full of Africans from neighboring countries that come here for Rwandas stability, including many students . Burindis is one of them, and since they are in a civil war, many of the young have migrated to neighboring countries mostly in Rwanda. In this area of africa, countries such as Rwanda and Burundi have two tribes. The Tutsi, which are thinner and very beautiful, ethiopian like people (think paul kagame) and much richer. The other are the Hutu, coming more from central and west africa. Basically over 100000 rich Tutsi have all migrated to Kigali and partying all over the place, hosting most of rwanda’s nightlife and hooking up all over the place, very welcoming and friendly. Their girls are some of the cutest you will find in Africa and are known to be quite open toward ONS. So trust me, its a good time to be there!
Notice: For those who think they shouldn’t game in Africa… Think again! Stop imagining everybody has HIV and you’ll get shot if walking on the street alone. Africa is much safer than many big european and american cities (except a couple exceptions in South Africa & Nigeria) and You’d be darn unlucky to catch any deseases over there, unless you're stupid and go raw, which girls would’t really let you anyway compared to sluts in america which don’t care...
Logistics
Get an apartment. Its as simple as that. Luckily, theres a bunch of them on airbnb probably the most I’ve seen in any city north of south africa. That will make it much easier for logistics to bring back. That could make things a little expensive but much easier than having to bring back at hotels.Theres two party neighborhood where most young people hang out. To get around town, there is a really nice network of motorbikes which will charge you under a dollar for a ride anywhere in town. Bringing back a girl back home will be tougher on bikes so consider a taxi back at night, keeping a number to contact them as theyre not frequent.
Type of Game
I’d say its pretty easy in general. If you’re a white guy, you’ll have the easiest time as they seem to love us. Most guys working on NGO’s are kind of nerdy and hippy, so arriving with style will give you a definite edge instantly. Dressing nice will show the difference, no need to over dress, but make the effort if you want to attract some looks from the hotties and show you’re not on some NGO job.
Where to go out
Go on Facebook and check out “whats on” on kigali for events as this seem to change a lot from time to time. During the week, most people seem to converge to the same places the Burundi people attend. There’s the Inema Arts place on Thursday which you shouldn’t missed, all the cool people in town will be there. Theres usually a Band live band playing and its actually pretty cool. Otherwise There’s PIli Pili, one of the coolest bars I’ve seen in Africa, “upper class” crowds will go there but loads of groups of hot girls will come in , mostly from Burundi since the owner is from there. I spent quite a lot of time there to game, and should be a mandatory stop on your visit to Kigali. The view is also amazing.
Late at night, the best place I found was a bar called "Jet lag" which kicks off after all the littler bars close, good time to go after 12pm even around 1am.
On Fridays, a big salsa party is thrown at the Radisson Blue next to the convention center, where a big amount of the expat community will gather. Nice place to start the night.
Conclusion
I highly recommend you test your game in a different destination than the usual European cities that everybody goes to. It's a great way to grow your game in a different aspect and on top of this, meet new types of girls. African ladies can be a real treat!
