Simiyu Maina Kessy

Master of tiling, now teaching apprentices

  • Since 1980
  • English, Spanish
My trade is tiling. I opened my own shop in 1980 in Dar es Salaam and I'm still there most mornings. Apprentices come in nervous and leave proud. That's my favorite part. I like to keep things simple and honest. I'm proud of everyone I got to work with.
