Greetings Watanzania.  I am a native Ugandan living in Norway for some time now. I must admit that i am in love with Tanzania and her polite people. I visited  Mkoa wa  Kilimanjaro recently and traveled to surrounding areas;  including doing a wildlife safari to Tarangire National Park.  I plan another trip pretty soon and would like to get in touch with the locals, and expats of similar interests - tour guides, Park restaurant staff, campsite owners, drivers, Kiswahili instructors, air BnB managers,  event managers, musicians etc. Thank you all for your contributions.

Hi to everyone!  I have enjoyed a life living around the world and working in many exotic places , and would like to retire in Zanzibar. I have worked and lived in Tanzania before and am very familiar with Zanzibar as I have visited many times and have some good friends there. I would like to know all of the formalities and requirements I would need. I have visited the Immigration website but this does not give specific answers to specific questions. Hoping to hear from anyone who has retired themselves or who has excellent information. Thank you very much.

Hello everyone, my name is Schaneze .

  I am of French origin and nationality. 

I am 24 years old

I am planning to move to Zanzibar.  But what blocks me is work.  In fact, I cannot find any job in order to have a minimum of financial resources per month. 

I am very versatile.  I can work in catering, hotels and tourism.  I hope you could help me. 


See you soon.

Julien
