I am Amoud Zahoro, a freelancer living in Iringa, Tanzania. I have been living in Iringa for 7 years and have worked for various organizations, including REA Project and LTA USAID Project. After leaving my last job in 2018, I decided to start my own businesses, Sokoniplus and Instant Car Rentals.

I enjoy walking, nature, and religion. I like talking about my faith and listening to good news. I also enjoy exercising in the mornings and evenings after work, and on weekends. I don't go out much, but I enjoy indoor parties, watching movies, listening to political, health, and social news, and building good relationships with people from different countries and religions.

I enjoy Couchsurfing because it allows me to meet people from all over the world and share my experiences with them. I have traveled a little, but I have not yet been to Europe, the United Kingdom, or the United States. These are among the continents I would like to visit, as well as India and China.

I'm interested in building lasting friendships with people from all walks of life.
I'm a strong believer in the power of hospitality and I want to share my home with others.
I'm always up for an adventure and I think Couchsurfing is a great way to meet new people and explore new places.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm still under development, so I haven't done anything amazing yet. But I'm learning new things every day, and I'm excited to see what the future holds.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am happy to share my home with my guests. I have a bedroom with a queen-size bed, a bathroom, and a dining area. I also have a fully equipped kitchen, as well as WiFi and TV.

I like to show my city to my guests. I can take them to famous attractions, such as the Iringa Museum and the Iringa Market. I can also show them the most beautiful parts of Iringa, such as Mount Uluguru and the Ruaha River.

I am willing to share my experiences with my guests. I can tell them about my life, my work, and my faith. I can also tell them about the history and culture of Tanzania.

I look forward to meeting you!
