Paul has travelled extensively throughout Africa after leaving agricultural college.He had many jobs from working on game reserves to driving trucks across the continent, giving him many stories to tell...

He later met his wife to be, Erika, and many years later, they chose to get married in Africa, followed by a self-drive safari in Tanzania.

Fortunately, she fell in love with the African wildlife and way of life, so they decided to take the plunge, seize an opportunity, pack their bags and start their new life together in Africa.

Twiga Lodge is a luxury lodge situated in the foothills of mount Meru. Named after the Swahili name for giraffe, which frequently visit us, you are sure to be immersed in the local sounds, smells and activities that distinguishes Tanzania from other countries. The lodge is built in traditional African style, with thatched roof and is set in 4 acres of landscaped gardens and affords breathtaking views of Mt Meru.
