Mbeya Region, Solo travel

My origin is Mbeya. I was born there around Rungwe. Before the Death of my grandparents we use to visit there almost every December holiday per year. Places like Tukuyu,kyela. There livers and great waterbodies and hotels one could enjoy at. You’ll thank me later 🤭 I lost the previous phone and my iCloud account with all the photos but I can assure you great experience.

Iringa

Iringa has lots of tourists and As any other country anyone should be careful. But it’s a safe place to move around.(79% assurance). Using the right transport, and moving with familiar people of the area it’s going to be safe. I’ve lived here for 3 years now and. Nothing bad has ever happened to me.

Arusha

Like any other big cities, it all depends on where you are. Some parts of the city are not so safe while most parts of the cities try to be safe considering that its a tourist city many laws are being put to make the guests feel more safe and secure.
