Tania was born in Kenya and moved around a lot. Her geographical footprint includes 4 other African countries, Thailand, Austria and Germany. Although she calls Germany home, her heart and her projects revolve around Kenya. In this conversation we follow her online journey from her first chat room all the way through to her current day Instagram world. This IG space includes the travel services of Swahili Secrets, the African inspired merchandise of Bantu Sisters, and the community oriented The Kenyan Kind.  In this conversation we chat about:her amazing geographical trajectoryher first experiences online & her current onlinenessprivate and public social media choiceshow her online posting habits have changedthe online lessons she’s learned over time Original publication date: April 2, 2021📬 Traveling abroad long-term?
