Burundi and Bujumbura are names I haven't heard for a long time. In 1978/79 I spent 15 months hitching through Africa. At one point I arrived in Burundi having hitched down from Rwanda. Ended up being stuck in Bujumbura for 3 months because a cholera epidemic had closed all travel in and out of the country and indeed through East Africa itself. Lived on a North American missionary station which overlooked the town just helping out with maintenance and so on to pay my way. Tourists/travellers of any kind were virtually non existent away from Kenya and the National Parks in Tanzania.
