About

Hello there! I'm Vanessa Mumba, a plant enthusiast and blogger behind Ethssa_nature. I'm thrilled to share my passion for indoor and wild plants with you, and help you create a greener, more serene space in your home.


A bit about me: I’m Zambian Congolese…living in South-Africa actually I’ve spent the past few years in SA. I’m currently taking a BBA course (degree). I speak 5 languages but I’m no longer fluent in some of them. 

I’m a big fan of plant and pets and I also do really appreciate cooking and dancing. Since my childhood, I've always been fascinated by the beauty and benefits of plants. As a busy student, I found solace in nurturing my indoor jungle, and soon discovered the joy of sharing my knowledge and experiences with others. On this blog, I'll share tips, stories, and inspiration to help you care for your plants, and cultivate a deeper connection with nature.


When I'm not tending to my plants or writing, you can find me exploring local nurseries, natural landscaping, restaurants, charity event, sipping tea, or creating new cooking recipes in my kitchen, I'm so glad you're here, and I can't wait to grow and learn with you!
