Mary Kourkoumeli

Mary Kourkoumeli was born in Athens, Greece. She had been working as an Art Director in publishing companies for 15 years. She has designed many travel publications, websites and brochures. She has always been curious about the planet and over the last decade she has been around many places in Europe, US, Asia and Africa. About two years ago, her journey-path led her to Tanzania where she met Thomas. As they share common interests about nature, conscious traveling, cultures and life they joined forces and work together in “Active Tanzania Adventures”. They have been wandering around East Africa, discovering and gathering experiences and information about the “ATA” project. Her favorite quotes are that we all share one world, we are global citizens, nature is our home and traveling helps us deepen our understanding of both life and ourselves. Apart from the travel company, she is genuinely interested in creating and getting involved in environmental, social and art projects and wishes to invite you all to join her.
