Tassia and Chaka joined Naibor Camps in September 2022.
Chaka spent his childhood in Nairobi followed by the Kenyan coast and always surrounded himself with the local wildlife, from monkeys to cats to the family chickens. Starting his career in farming at the foothills of Mount Kenya, Chaka has always had a strong connection to nature. This connection, along with his social nature, has led Chaka to work in the hospitality industry in Kenya for the past 12 years. You’ll find Chaka greeting the creatures who call Naibor home each and every morning.
Originally from the Hampshire countryside, Tassia began her career in interior styling and visual merchandising in the UK. Tassia’s path to Kenya was through her work in the sustainable fashion industry, firstly in Tsavo, then in Nairobi, managing and developing Artisan accessories production with community women’s groups for the past 6 years. Tassia joined Naibor with a love of rural Kenya, both the wildlife and community traditions alike.
