About Me

www.itstartedinafrica.com is my latest direction in life. After many years of on Couchsurfing, learning about cultures and seeing the injustices in our world, I was fortunate to find myself starting a local tour company to help travelers who are coming in my country (Tanzania) with no idea on how to do safaris. Now I work hard to make sure all travelers visiting my country have Equal opportunity as locals by travelling and treating human beings with respect.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My friend who is a couchsurfer invited me to one of the CS meetings in Dar es Salaam. I had such a good time and met so many different people around the world hence giving me an idea how to make the world a better place through CS. I host most of the time and also surf in Tanzania sometimes.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not yet been anywhere outside of my country Tanzania. But I’ve learnt so many different things from other travellers around the world after meeting them through CS, it is a real experience.

Interests

Playing football, watching movies and gospel music.

Teaching student is my job.

Bring travellers around the world to see and live the local Tanzanian lifestyle, showing them this beautiful country.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It was something surprised me to see people living together with wild animals in Ngorongoro National Park.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach mathematics and physics.

I learn from other travellers to expand my horizon.

I share my knowledge and ideas to other travellers and also share my beautiful country to them, I’m ready to show all parts of my country to you: Serengeti; Ngorongoro; Mikumi; Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro; Mount Meru and Zanzi Bar, etc. I’m able to organize tour for you to anywhere that you are interested in this country on a small budget.

And also I will share with you how our projects can make this town and this world a better place.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I look upon a couchsurfer coming to stay with me as an event. I offer food, refreshment and entertainment with good conversation. I love telling stories and hearing yours. I do have laundry facilities for guest like long safari tourers but please ask before using them. If you would like to cook please just ask as I have a very well equipped kitchen.
