If I were to tell you 6 years ago that I have started doing destination research to create & curate unique excursions for a Global Hospitality business, based in the Eastern Highlands, you would've most probably thought I was losing my mind.

It's actually does; the 30s come with remarkable peace. You realise that what you were stressing about in the late 20s thinking you are running out of time did not need to be rushed. I'll share some examples...
Welcome to the Zimbabwean Homestead Inspired Architecture. Hidden in plain sight Musangano Lodge, off the Harare Mutare Highway, offers one of the most tranquil escapes in the Eastern Highlands. Book a stay here this Jan & get a complementary Best of Bvumba/Nyanga Tour.
I'm working on a new baby and my followers get to enjoy it first!!!
The Mutare Nights special
$80/night on weekdays sleeps 6 in 3 bedrooms, 2 baths.

The gift today is an end of day shot in the Sunshine City. Sometimes we do not take the time to appreciate what the architects drew up and created

Today's gift is this shot from the Zimbabwe Private Dams research I did in '19. The strategy was, let me start sharing some

Established as Fort Umtali 1897, after a meeting in 1896 where the residents, 90, agreed to move to this site, joining the Sable Valley, Birkley & Mountain View Farms. The decision was encouraged by surveyors mapping the railway to Salisbury from Beira..

This is a random spot in the Eastern Highlands. Like I just took a walk and the view started to deliver....
.. what am I saying, the East is a place you most probably haven't explored adequately, because you are limited to what you choose to know only. Tour with me one day!
@thandoau
Having multiple business ideas is great; do not feel pressure to develop them all at the same time you cam develop them one at time and use each idea to propell the next one. Be it financing or through various integration strategies.
Also....
Photography is one of those passion projects, where in the beginning it doesn't pay, then as you keep working and perfecting your skills till one day, someone notices..

En route to Nyangani, the highest peak in the Eastern Highlands via Mare Dam.
Fun Fact: Water supplied to Mutare comes from a spring that starts here and gravitates to every household, no pumping.
Shoutout to my Dad for doing this for the city, Legend!

This is your sign to follow your dreams. 2016 I called my sekuru & said let's go to Nyanga I am researching an idea, to run a Southern African Hospitality Company focused on the Eastern Highlands.
8 yrs later I can't believe how it is unfolding.

Finding a woman you are really down for is an underrated achievement for us bro & when we do, we love with an intense, immesurable, unrelenting, passion. We convince ourselves that letting this go is not an option, I feel you bro, this is major.
Good morning from somewhere in Zimbabwe, took a break from the sunrise shoot, to take in the beauty and bliss of where we are. They are starting to call me Mr locations 😂
Who said breakfast when you are camping should be boring 😋

Exploring these mountains is by far the best Hiking Expedition on my guided tours in Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 You deserve to experience it at least once.

Kanye West, Kobe Bryant set out to be great and they made it. Jordan went for champs and he got them.
@wanyanyawalter
set out to host amazing festivals in this country and he is doing it.
Got me thinking..
As I plan & host amazing trips I too will be great. Only way is up 🚀
I had no idea how a solo hike was going to turn out to be so much fun and the icing on the cake is that I got to take this photo of myself so happy. It's been a hard month but trust joy to wipe all the tears away!!
