Wekesa Joseph Rashidi

Local tailoring and thatching

  • 🇹🇿 Dar es Salaam, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
  • Frangipani Shop
  • 1988 to 2006
  • English, Swahili
I've worked in tailoring from 1988 to 2006. I learned from my grandmother and passed what I could on to 610 apprentices. I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I paint watercolors of whatever is outside the window.

More about Wekesa

Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.

Crafts and trades

What gifts mean to Wekesa: I'd put gifts toward a new set of tools for the next apprentice.
