Do enjoy our fresh and delicious food? Give a big thanks to Samson, he wakes up early in the morning ensuring you will be served a fresh and hot breakfast. In the evening he cooks delicious local Tanzanian and western food. If you have a tasty recipe to share, he will appreciate it! In his free time, Samson loves to create and listen to music.

There is no Nyumbani Hostel party at our Sunset Bar without Eli. He is the best when it comes to mixing drinks and preparing Cocktails. It's always fun to be around him! He also takes care of the weekly movie nights. Furthermore, he sleeps in the hostel making sure everything is fine at night.​
