I am a nomadic traveler who enjoys hiking, beach life, connecting with nature, wildlife, mountaineering, cultural visits, and volunteering!

I am also the founder of the Zion Gates Foundation and Janibichi Adventures Ltd. These organizations are dedicated to community empowerment, sustainable tourism, and environmental management.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here to meet new friends, travelers, adventurers, and to learn from others' cultures and traditions. Additionally, I aim to share the rich culture of Tanzania, specifically that of the local Chagga people and other tribes.

Staying at the Zion Gates Foundation Volunteer house requires active participation in volunteering. Our activities include teaching "My Body is My Body" at local schools and villages to children, youth, and women. We also engage in waste picking not only around the local area but also in other villages to demonstrate proper plastic disposal and raise awareness. The work is spontaneous and doesn't adhere to specific hours. You can also contribute by managing Zion Gates Foundation's social media accounts and other technical tasks based on your skills and preferences.

Alternatively, if you prefer a non-volunteering option, you can book a tour (e.g., Safaris, Mount Kilimanjaro/Meru trekking, day tours, cycling tours, etc.). In this case, there is no volunteering requirement, and you are free to stay at the Volunteer house. Visit the Janibichi Adventures Ltd Website for more information:

Feel free to contact me directly if you have any remaining questions. I am looking forward to meeting you, and Karibu sana to Tanzania, rafiki 💚!
