It's great to hear your experiences from Ethiopia! It's good to see an okayplayer going to Africa :)

Anyway - in my school there's an Ethiopian man (also one from Somalia) that has told me that he wouldn't go back to his home country because of the (still) bad situation.. He has been a refugee most of his life, first running away from his home in Eithiopia when he was a young boy, then escaping wars for several years until his family got to Somalia which wasn't very good either. He got to Norway, where he's been for 4 years learning Norwegian (in a cold ass place up north), and is currently studying music here in my school. However, he told me that he want to go back to Somalia and Ethiopia when things are better in those countries. I'm just wondering.. Is the situation really that bad in those countries?
