Hello!

I love to explore, to travel, to meet people, to photograph, to tell a story, and to experience new cultures.

I was born and raised in Zanzibar and I live in Zanzibar . I was working with a lot of numbers and a tours operator in my previous life at tourism industry ,I running my company www.mercuryzanzibarsafari.com.

I also enjoy being outdoors and doing anything that involves physical activity such as hiking, swimming, and playing sports to name a few.

Tourism business is also a passion of mine and would be awesome if I could incorporate that into some type of career =)

PHILOSOPHY

"This life must be a test, if it was the real thing we'd be given better instructions..."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To see the world and meet new people. Ever since I independently stepped foot abroad, I've learned to appreciate and be grateful for all the differences and similarities that we all share as human beings. I could be staying in motels and hostels, but I want to couchsurf to meet new people from local areas to gain a richer understanding of the places I am visiting.

Interests

Anything that involves physical activity! I love anything related to sports, hiking, swimming, photography, and yoga to name a few. I'm also a tour guide and love to walk around .

In addition, as much as I enjoy time to myself, I also enjoy time with people and meeting new friends and learning about everyone's unique stories. I'm also active in my community and love working with kids and people

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some skills about touring ,safaris ,holiday and adventure if you're interested. The only Swahili song I know fully is a song about a Jambo Jambo Bwana in which the same line is repeated over and over again - I can teach you that if you'd like. But would love to learn and share life and cultural experiences with you!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a good conversation about where I'm from, the places I've been to, and the places I wish to visit. In addition, I love swiming and would love to teach if anyone wants to learn . I spent my career so far working with numbers in the corporate world, so if anyone is actually crazy enough to pursue those careers, I can offer a few tidbits of advice.
