8 Things You Never Knew You Wanted To Know About Thom Nkata

1. Time at Mobal: I started working for Mobal in 2004.
2. Best Mobal World Phone tip: Always have your phone fully charged, save your mobal number in your phone book and make sure you have numbers marked ICE (In Case of Emergency)
3. Have you ever had a time when abroad when your cell phone has been invaluable?: I was in Amsterdam and I carried my Vodafone contract phone. I had warned my provider that i will be abroad and need roaming facilities. It was a complete waste of time as my phone constantly gave me problems, luckily Jim had his mobal phone and I really appreciated the reliability of our product. The Mobal SIM or phone works without unnecessary glitches
4. Your best holiday experience ever and why? : This is a tough one, my holidays range from pilgrims to leisure and i enjoy them all, but one that comes to mind from time to time, was my trip up to Nyika platue in the north of Malawi. It is up in the mountain, and the temperatures drop to as low as 0C. It is a preserved area untouched and diverse with wildlife. This was the place I came across an Iridium Satelite phone for the first time. The peace and quiet I experienced at this place gave me an impression that man needs to get out of his world and see nature in it raw form to appriciate life.
5. Your worst holiday experience and why? : Being African and raised in the city, I have a tribal heritage passed to me from my family and next of kin. My parents liked to take the family to our village in rural Malawi to see our extended family and tribes men. During one of the trips to my ancestral home, it rained heavily and most of the bridges were washed away. All i can say is that it wasn't pleasant!
6. Dream holiday destination: USA
7. Favourite travel tip or product: Do not feel like a stranger or you will be an easy target, and carry a communications device which is portable and can be concealed
8. If you could describe yourself as an animal, what would it be and why?: I see myself as hippopotamus, i believe i am shy when you first see me and you don't get the chance to see the real me. If you are patient enough you eventually see my true nature, just like a hippo when it comes out of the water.............RUN!
