Regional/Cultural Day

Rain Plan Day

In Kigali, the spring rain starts without warning while you're walking down KN 5 Road, so you duck into a café for a coffee. The barista laughs and says the rain will stop in ten minutes, just like yesterday. You sip your coffee and watch the umbrellas bloom like flowers.

Raincoat Ready Day

In Kigali, the afternoon showers come without warning, turning the red dust into slick mud. You keep a folded raincoat in your backpack by the door. When the first drops hit, you slip it on and keep walking, because the rain won't wait for you.

Radio Voice Day — World Calendar Day
Regional/Cultural Day

Radio Voice Day

You wake to the soft crackle of the morning show on Radio Rwanda, and the host's voice fills your small kitchen. You sip coffee while she reads the news in Kinyarwanda, and the words feel like a blanket. A familiar voice on the radio is a friend you haven't met.
