My work: Rand Water
Hi my name is Zinhle Gasa and I am your host. I am originally from the coastal province of KwaZulu-Natal Natal, in the city of Durban, but I now live in the golden province of Gauteng, in the city of Johannesburg in South Africa. My passion is people, yes I said it, people. I am at my best when I am around people, whether hosting, socializing or anything, as long as there are people, I'm happy. I love interacting with people from all walks of life and I just love creating lasting relations. Family, travelling, food, hosting, music and socializing are my other passion; and Airbnb has opened a whole new world for me and it is just too exciting. I hope that we will get an opportunity to get more acquainted with each other when we will be hosting you at Thabela House soon. I try to live my life by the following motto: "Live the Life you Love" and wow Airbnb has certainly helped me to do just that.
