    My name is Mary, was hosting few years ago but stopped since i was putting up my family home up.
    Even though I'm not yet done i still still do need some good help and advice from someone who has got experience with construction as a whole.
    Looking forward into meeting wonderful people.
    I'm an avid hiker it's something I would love to do with my guests, been eying Mt.Kenya maybe we can tackle it together.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I stay in a rather quite area overlooking the lake and a mountain.
    There's a town not too far from my home and it's very easy to access where one can go for some personal shopping or coffee and probably walking around and familiarizing with the locals etc....
    I live near a lake, if one is interested can try fishing and many more activities for fun swimming, hiking go bike riding.
    There's a lot to learn from my culture I'm willing to help in any way possible.
    The Norwegian i hosted made us her favourite meal and she enjoyed ours too, looking forward to tasting different cuisine and how to make them.
    We also took time to teach each other language which was fun. I thought she picked Swahili easily, but Norwegian proved tough half the time she was laughing at me.
    So language exchange is on the cards....
