About Beth, creator of Great Zimbabwe Guide Travel Blog

I was born and raised in Zimbabwe, where conversations about wildlife like elephants, rhinos, and lions were second nature to me.

I didn’t realise how lucky I was to have family holidays at sights like Victoria Falls, Lake Kariba and Great Zimbabwe Monument from a young age.

Now, although I no longer live in Zimbabwe, I still consider it my heart’s home. I love returning to Zimbabwe to experience the country with a dual perspective: I’m an ex-local and also a tourist. I currently live in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom.

I started the Great Zimbabwe Guide website back in 2010 with the aim of providing actionable, inspiring and honest information for anyone interested in travelling in Zimbabwe – and to showcase the positive aspects of Zimbabwe in the process.

Today, Great Zimbabwe Guide is the longest-running independent travel blog on Zimbabwe, Africa.
