Podcast conversation with Lylie Moolman.

Lylie and I had a great time talking about Tanzania. It’s easy to want to inspire you to plan a trip there because it has such natural beauty and welcoming people. You’ll see the big 5 and also hippos, zebras, chimpanzees, and wild dogs. The Serengeti is an iconic safari destination, and there are so many more national parks. There is also the coast where you’ll find watersports, Zanzibar, and one of the accommodations that is on my personal bucket list… andBeyond Mnemba Island.
