ABOUT ME

I'm living and working in Dar es Salaam for the summer. I'm hoping to meet up with folks also in Dar who are into exploring the city and the culture, and into doing weekend trips to beaches and parks in the area.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in kindness, compassion, and paying it forward.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
