<p><strong><span style="color: #ffffff;"> </span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ffffff;">My husband and I moved from the Netherlands to Tanzania in 2022.</span></strong><br /><strong><span style="color: #ffffff;">We fell in love with this beautiful country after a few visits to Zanzibar and Tanganyika. The stunning nature, the pure and unspoiled food from the fertile soil, the culture, the harmony and of course the wonderful people who make us feel very welcome by saying: “Karibu Tanzania!” We decided to take this big step in februari 2021 and after a full year of preparations we arrived in februari 2022. We will share our way of life and experiences in this magazine for everyone who dares to make such a change and for people who are happy where they are. By sharing universal tips and tricks we want to show that certain practices like meditation, spirituality, healthy food, merging cultures, being balanced and enjoying life. We provide practices that empower everyone anywhere on Gaia (Mother Earth) for a fruitful, satisfying and meaningful life.</span></strong></p>[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version="4.22.2" _module_preset="default" column_structure="1_2,1_2" theme_builder_area="post_content"][et_pb_column _builder_version="4.22.2" _module_preset="default" type="1_2" theme_builder_area="post_content"][et_pb_text _builder_version="4.22.2" _module_preset="default" theme_builder_area="post_content" hover_enabled="0" sticky_enabled="0"]<p>Director Miranda (Zangmo) Decker. <br />I lived a fairly happy life in Lelystad the Netherlands, <br />together with my husband and our dog Marley. There I <br />learned to connect to nature, my community and my inner self through personal development by exploring the tools of ancient knowledge. These tools supported me in “the School of life" to become the person that I am today and I want to share this knowledge for everyone who has similar urges for personal development. <br />At the age of 35 I realized there was more than meets the eye and started searching for more at a Buddhist Temple in Hantum Friesland the Netherlands. I became part of a <br />Sangha (group of students in Tibetan Buddhism) and <br />received my Buddhist name: Zangmo karma deleg. Sadly my teacher died of old age (nobody knew his real age, not even himself) in 2014. Then, out of nowhere, I got "a call" from <br />the goddesses sisterhood community to go to Glastonbury (Avalon) England. There I was initiated as a goddess Priest. The mix of goddess ceremony’s filled with: self exploration, meditation and initiations was such a revelation that led <br />from one thing to the other. I started with Peruvian Shamanism in 2012 and completed the Medicine-wheel and Shamanic Healing technics by 2018. After that I took a <br />course of Alchemic Spagyric and became a Pre-scriber of herbal complexes in 2020.</p>[/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src="https://matu-amani.co.tz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/IMG_6318-scaled.jpeg" _builder_version="4.22.2" _module_preset="default" theme_builder_area="post_content" hover_enabled="0" sticky_enabled="0" title_text="IMG_6318"][/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column _builder_version="4.22.2" _module_preset="default" type="1_2" theme_builder_area="post_content"][et_pb_text _builder_version="4.22.2" _module_preset="default" theme_builder_area="post_content" custom_padding="||0px|||"]<p>Director Erwin Decker.<br />I have a background in audiovisual facilities for television productions, lighting technique for film, logistics, <br />catering, festival organization, music and was partly <br />owner of a club in Lelystad called the Cult and later rebranded as House of Rock for which I did the <br />marketing &amp; technical maintenance. For Matu-Amani I collect all the background information and perform the final editing for the Magazine &amp; website. For the online movies and vlogs I am responsible for the sound, light &amp; video recordings. The scripts and texts are developed by us both. Because I was born in Ethiopia, I always had a special place in my heart for Africa. Growing up in <br />Ethiopia, Ivory Coast and Libya made me experience and love nature to the core of my being. After years of searching for a place outside of the Netherlands where <br />we could live &amp; work, I convinced Miranda that we would find that place in one of the most beautiful and free <br />spirit countries of Africa, Tanzania. A land of great opportunities.</p>[/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src="https://matu-amani.co.tz/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/IMG_4508.jpeg" _builder_version="4.22.2" _module_preset="default" theme_builder_area="post_content" hover_enabled="0" sticky_enabled="0" title_text="IMG_4508"][/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version="4.22.2" _module_preset="default" theme_builder_area="post_content" hover_enabled="0" sticky_enabled="0" link_option_url="https://matu-amani.co.tz/wp-login.php"][et_pb_column _builder_version="4.22.2" _module_preset="default" type="4_4" theme_builder_area="post_content"][et_pb_button button_text="Login" _builder_version="4.22.2" _module_preset="default" theme_builder_area="post_content" button_url="https://matu-amani.co.tz/wp-login.php" hover_enabled="0" sticky_enabled="0"][/et_pb_button][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]
