Where to stay Wed,17 Dec,2014
Hisia Safaris believes that traveling is not only known places. A great trip is complete when the customs, traditions, people and cuisine of the place you visit are known.
So we want to talk about Christina House, in Arusha. Christina's house is a small local accommodation whose main characteristic, as travelers who frequent it say, is the warm welcome from Christina and the group of people working there.
Where and how is Christina House?
The place is located about 10 minutes from the center of Arusha, and consists of beautiful gardens that surround the place where the dining rooms and restaurant are. Anything you need, ask Christina because if it's in her hand you'll have it. A taxi, a city tour, a special outing or even internet. If needed, Christina offers a laptop with internet to make use of it for free.
How is the food at Christina House?
It is a clean and comfortable place where nice people working there will introduce you to the African way of life, cooking typical Tanzanian food, even attending to the culinary demands of every traveler if they are for example vegetarian, or preparing soups when it's cold... Even toasted coffee from coffee beans. Christina is always looking after travelers, as if they are in their own house. She tries every person there feel "home away from home".
How does Christina help?
Christina is also very involved in helping Tanzanian women, so she is the founder of "Women Hope of Tanzania" and contribute to some volunteer projects. If you want to volunteer and help in any way in any of her projects, Christina will help you prepare everything. You can read more about these projects on their website or writing her an email.
In short, Christina is a lovely person who cares for travelers as if they were her family, who will give you a warm welcome in her home, personal attention and you will know many of the Tanzanian customs and part of the way of life.
If like us you are a traveler who is interested in this type of experience on your trip, your stay at Christina House will give your adventure a special flavour.
