I was born and raised in Tanzania, a country that has always been deeply part of who I am. At the age of 18, I moved to the Netherlands with my family. While I built my life there over more than 30 years — including 22 years working for KLM — I always knew that one day I would return home.

That moment came in 2019, when I moved back to Tanzania with my wife and daughter and settled in Arusha, the heart of the safari world. Returning felt like coming back to where I truly belong.

In 2022, I founded Travelsing East Africa. My goal was simple: to create authentic and unforgettable safari experiences, especially for Dutch travelers. Having lived in the Netherlands for so long, I understand the expectations, preferences, and way of traveling of Dutch guests — while at the same time being deeply connected to Tanzania’s culture, nature, and people.

This combination allows me to offer something unique: a safari experience that is both well-organized and truly authentic.

For me, this is more than a business. It is about sharing the beauty of Tanzania in a personal and meaningful way, and creating journeys that my guests will remember for a lifetime.
