GENERAL INFORMATION:
PERSONAL HISTORY
I was born and raised on slopes of Mt. Kilimanjaro in Moshi town Soweto. I now live in Arusha. I chose to be a tour guide because…..I love it!
I am extensively trained in Wildlife management and tour guiding.
A couple of years ago, after completing my studies with the College of African Wildlife Management Mweka, I went to the United States where I visited various Universities and Schools including Harvard University, University of Arizona and Solo School in North Conway New Hamshire for rescue and survival medicine (where I took a wilderness first responder course). I also visited many historical sites as well as Yellow Stone National Park with my Director Melly Rowlings.
