Tell me a little about Moshi?
Moshi, our home town, is a small but typically vibrant Tanzanian market town with an urban population of 150,000 and rural population of 402,400. It is the regional capital of the Kilimanjaro region. What makes Moshi special is the fact that it sits behind one of the world most amazing backdrops, the snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro. You can practically be anywhere in Moshi and be in the presence of the beautiful mountain. Although the town lies at an altitude of 890m above sea level, you do not have to travel too far towards the mountain to feel that you are getting higher and can feel closer to it. The town is set in a fertile volcanic area, and is well fed by streams off the mountain.This makes it ideal for arabica coffee crops, the biggest local export.Moshi is a safe town and has numerous internet cafes, restaurants, bars and clubs. There is even access to a hotel swimming pool nearby, and a volley ball court in the garden of the hostel! Moshi is the kind of town where you can relax
