Ethiopia - Culture, Nature and History

[botswanadreams]

Hello

I would like to invite you to come with us to Ethiopia. We traveled in September 2017 intensively to the East and North. Unfortunately I'm not able to write a whole trip report in English. It'll be in German on our homepage but you can translate via Google to this funny English or you only take a look to the pictures. It's your choice.

Here I'll always post a few pics from the areas.

The first part is ready. Lets go!

This is the link to part 1.

If you like you can follow us to Ankober, Guassa and two very colorful weekly markets (Senbete and Bati). You will find a lot of pics from this areas on our homepage.

Thank you, Botswanadreams, for this lovely report - and the excellent photos.

Looking forward to the next exciting installment.

Thank you am enjoying sharing your trip very much. I think you obtained full value from your guide. Thus far he has taken you to some lovely places off the normal tourist routes.
Looking forward to the rest.

Stan and Wazungu Wawili thanks very much to travel with us through Ethiopia.

Yes Stan with Firew Ayele I found by accident one of the best guides in Ethiopia. In the past he has done up to 150 documentaries about Ethiopia with BBC, National Geographic's, Terre Matre and many more filming companies. One of this is from BBC "The hottest place on ears". I think he know and love his home country very much after being a Somali prisoner from the age of nine to twenty. Something nobody of us can imagine.

Lets put a few pics of part II on this forum.
