The country of the thousand hills....

I have told you already, I think, that Burundi is known to be the country of the thousand hills (along with Rwanda). Having travel quite a bit by now, I can confirm this. The landscape is stunning, hills all over the place with a few valley. Most impressive still is the fact that almost every centimeter of the ground is worked. I could also add that it is the country of the beautiful skies! I know I lived in Mongolia for 2 years and I did see some stunning blue skies and beautiful clouds. But Burundi is tough competition! The clouds, the mountains, the blue sky after the tropical rain... Breathtaking!
