News and Updates 18-07-2008 My web shop has not been very active lately, as I have been very busy with my new business in Zanzibar this last 2 years and on 1 August this year. I will open the doors to my latest venture "BUSHMAN'S KITCHEN" the main business will be brunches and lunches with tables outside in a garden area next to the road to Jambiani. I will also offer ‘BUSHMAN’ fashion accessories such as Snake, Zebra, Lizard, Fish and Ostrich skin handbags, wallets, belts and jewelry and next to this I will offer some African explore books. Right place to read such books I recon. So if your passing then just drop in, if you need a place to stay a nice colonial private house in the bush near to the beach check out my villas on www.zanzibarvillas.com Previous news Your email: Subscribe
