About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to help the people in Africa

ABOUT ME

Hi
I am young by name and young by nature although my age is 62..dont like it..and really it means nothing..its not the years in life that matter its the life in your yours thats most important...
Sometimes people call me the bush lady, as I work in the bush of Africa many months of the year..I return to give talks, and radio interviews on my voluntary work, trying to encourage others to get involved and share some of their own skills with others less fortunate than we..

PHILOSOPHY

Only we can make our lives rich...not always in monetary terms either..
My logo for my programme ..villageventures is...
Every Raindrop from Heaven Creates a Fountain of Hope on Earth

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Any one can come over to Mali and share the experience of a life time..sharing your own skills with others.. our people of Diema need to interact with others..

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Earlier this year a radio presenter from US contacted and came to stay in Mali.. He had a voyage only had once in a lifetime...his own words..not mine..!

Interests

Since I was young I said that anyone can do anything they set their heart and mind on..just go for it ..and I do..just learned how to turn pieces of wood into beautiful pens.. want to share this with our people in Mali..

I am interested in everything good on this planet..only we an make our lives rich..not always in cash either...
