About the host

Hosted by Petra Najjuka

Host profile image
Petra holds an internationally recognized project management profession credential. From my exposure during her work - professional related travels, I observed the challenges travelers like I faced myself. Everytime i needed space to do what I enjoyed like cooking my own fresh meals or veggies straight from the market, making herself a coffee, everything thing was costed highly because the Accomodation facilities could not allow me do that. Could not even carry in a beer, soda, water, etc unless paid a percentage for them.It is against that backdrop that she thought of setting up a comfortable home for people who always faced such challenges like herself to come and enjoy
