selam, kemetian

your posts on ethiopia made the internet worth it. i was born and raised there, up until i came to the US for college about 4 years ago; and i haven't been back since. your opinions/observations/tales are very refreshing and have helped nursed the nostalgia and homesickness. thanks much!

about the coffee house ... i hear it was only recently opened. i don't remember it being around when i was there. but it's supposed to be really really good. some friends of mine performed there on the regular through the latter half of the summer.

the "tsabel" story was amazing. i'm glad you were open-minded about it. its effectiveness is questioned by many, but believed in by most. hope it was an enlightening experience, at the very least.

keep posting your observations. chk your inbox, as well. got a proposition for ya ...

stay safe.

peace. "chaw chaw" :)
