Maun is a frontier town, facilities are limited and basic, there are no other towns within reach and few expat females, so your lady would have to be very tolerant with a high boredom threshold. If she had been to Africa before, knew the territory, was passionate about wildlife and flying maybe it would be OK, it would be a good idea for her to visit you for a couple of weeks before committing, check up on visa for long stays too.
