Feel free to ask her any questions; she is always eager to share her journey of hard work and success! Upon arrival, she will warmly welcome you with traditional chai tea and locally grown coffee. She takes pride in showcasing her businesses, each thriving from the previous one - from banana trees to coffee, to chickens, goats, and cows. If interested, assist in cutting vegetation for the animals, check the chicken nests for eggs, and milk the cow. She now mentors young women who were once in her position!
