Hi! I'm Lydia from Kenya—a friendly, adventurous, and social traveler. I love meeting new people, learning from different cultures, and sharing great conversations. I'm a travel consultant and safari planner, so exploring the beauty of nature and helping others experience it is my passion.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that the best way to travel is through people. Couchsurfing allows me to connect, learn, and give back. It’s not just about places—it's about the people who make the journey unforgettable.

Interests

I love traveling to both well-known and hidden gems, especially in Africa. One of my favorite things is learning how different communities live, cook, and celebrate. I enjoy wildlife photography, historical storytelling, and being in nature. Every new place teaches me something, and I carry those memories with me.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music – I love Afrobeat, Bongo Flava, soulful R&B, and traditional drumming.
Books – I enjoy biographies, travel stories, and African literature.
Movies – Nature documentaries, romantic dramas, and anything with a strong story.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once guided a private safari through the Great Migration in Masai Mara—watching thousands of wildebeests cross the river while lions hunted nearby. It was raw, real, and absolutely breathtaking.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach – I can teach you about African culture, traditional cooking (like how to make coconut milk the coastal way!), and safari planning.
Learn – I'm always eager to learn new languages, recipes, and ways of thinking.
Share – I can share amazing local stories, travel tips, and even help plan your next big adventure.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I bring great stories, positive energy, and a good sense of humor. I can help cook, share music or dance styles from Kenya, and I’m always ready to lend a hand around the house or in travel planning.
