Travelling
Description
Hey there! My name is Mumbi. I was born and raised in Kenya but I left home at 18 and have spent most of my adulthood living in Canada and travelling to new countries. I am passionate about spreading love. Love has taught me to see the beauty in all things. I find purpose in spreading love, and dream of living in a world where we as humans see each other as brothers and sisters sharing this beautiful planet we get to call home.
Being a yoga teacher and a reiki practitioner, I have built a strong passion for teaching mindfulness, presence and compassion. Indigenous communities took care of nature and lived in alignment with it. Though these communities had their fair share of problems, modern society has a lot to learn from our ancestors. I am passionate about learning permaculture and herbalism, reconnecting to some of the sacred ways of the past and finding new creative ways to infuse deeper reverence for life into modern society.
Travel, to me, is an amazing opportunity to learn new ways of seeing things, and build a more compassionate understanding of how diverse life on Earth truly is.
I am excited to travel more and expand my limited perspective of what it means to truly live and love.

More details about your skills
I am a certified yoga teacher and reiki practitioner. I have been teaching yoga while on the road for the past year and a half and am always honored to share this beautiful practice with anyone who wishes to learn.
I love to cook! My personal favorite cuisine to cook is Thai and Chinese, but I'm always trying new recipes on Pinterest as I really do enjoy seeing the joy on people's faces whenever they try my food.
I am a singer/songwriter and music has been the love of my life since I was 6 years old. I am trained pianist and vocalist, and I studied music in university. I taught music at a High School for 6 months in 2016 and had a blast! I love sharing this gift with anyone and everyone who is interested in learning, collaborating, or just simply being entertained.
I spent a few months of 2022 volunteering across East and Southern Africa, and in that time I picked up some farming/gardening skills, childcare skills, cleaning skills, as well as website building skills.
I love social media and have a few YouTube channels where I share my music, yoga classes, as well as my traveling and volunteering experiences! If you'd like the link, please let me know as I would be more than happy to share!
