John Hipolite
Chada, Katavi, Western Tanzania
John joined Nomad over a decade ago as a carpenter in Sand Rivers Selous. His is quite the success story of up-skilling and on-the-job training, after a few years in the workshop busy making camp furniture and alike, John moved into a camp waiter role in Sand Rivers and Chada Katavi, and later progressed to become head waiter in Lamai Serengeti. He didn't stop there and some years on he was hosting in our mobile Serengeti camps. Finally he settled down as camp manager of Serengeti Safari Camp, following the great migration over the open plains and sharing this magical experience with guests from across the globe. John is now a fully fledged Nomad guide and is enjoying his first season guiding from Chada Katavi.
