What’s your favourite travel destinations in Africa and why?
In Africa, I would say South Africa. I think I love the accent, I love the language, the way they speak. But as well the vibe and the music. The guys love so much music and the dances and everything. So, besides that, it is more developed than most African countries.
What hobby do you enjoy in your free time and how does it help you relax?
Besides playing with my daughter, I will be chatting with my wife. If it’s not that, it will be playing chess or guitar. And sometimes, I cook.
What’s the best book you’ve read recently and how has it impacted your life?
Well, so I think this was last year, Pricing Creativity by Blair Enns. Pricing Creativity has been my favorite read of last year and it has really impacted my work life, not life in general but yeah so it has been an amazing book for me. It is probably the best sales book I ever read for that matter.

If you could have dinner with any historical figure, who will that be and why?
Mwalimu Julius Kamparagi Nyerere. He is the father of our nation and the guy was very humble and wise. You listen to some of the things that he has spoken about decades ago and they are still very much making sense and he was very funny. So I would love to tap some of that wisdom from him and yeah he was good with almost everyone.
What’s one thing you can’t travel without and why is it so essential to you and why?
It’s a very small thing, it’s a very small thing. It’s my eye mask. I find it difficult to sleep without it. It is an old habit, every time I travel, it’s safe to go. I might forget my phone, but not that.
