No Sex, No City

That about sums up life in Kigali after life in a city like Hong Kong, New York, or Washington. However, with a group of friends who are determined to make like here feel a little like life where we come from, I have started a weekend yoga class. Last weekend, two of us went and got a manicure and pedicure before the class - for $12! Even cheaper than Hong Kong! Then we went over to her house and we set up on her roof. I have joined www.yogadownloads.com and get to download 6 yoga class mp3s a month for $10. Its pretty cool and the classes so far have been great. At around 5:30 we set up the yoga mats, a citronella candle for the mossies, and my computer and speakers. Doing yoga over looking the hills during sunset was amazing. We may be existing with "No Sex, No City" but we do have sunset yoga with flocks of birds flying by and by the time we are cooling down into shivasana we have the moon and the stars and a flickering candle. Pretty cool, I must say. This weekend, the plan is to follow class with dinner and an episode of Sex in the City. Its a balance of give and take and all in all we get along just fine.
