It’s been almost two years since my last African adventure began… it was 6 months of the most wonderful experiences (which you can read more about by scrolling, scrolling and more scrolling), and it was the beginning of something really special for me. It gave me real energy and belief that I can make a difference and that living my dream is possible.
So this is it! On 18th September 2018, I will leave London for a new life – I am moving to Tanzania. It has not been an easy decision to leave everything and everyone behind in Europe and moving further away from my family has probably been what has given me the most sleepless nights. But I am so thankful for all the support and encouragement I’ve received and I know this will make me a happier person!
I took my parents to Tanzania earlier this year to show them where I would live, and we had such a great trip – their first outside Europe. I was so proud of how they took everything in their strides and embraced the local culture. We went on amazing safaris, we hiked to a waterfall, made coffee the local way and relaxed on Zanzibar… it was truly wonderful!
I just loved showing them why I am so passionate about the country and about helping people. And being able to introduce them to some of my friends was really special, too.
I cannot wait to welcome many more of you to visit me in Tanzania.
Karibuni sana! [You are all very welcome!]
