South and Central Ethiopia
Mon ,16/11/2009First of all, I would like to thank express travel, for helping me with flight tickets…guys, you are great !
Express travel helped me a lot getting my flight tickets
Ethiopia my last country in the Black Continent was also a mystery for me. Many travelers say that this is “the” Africa feeling, a black hole where the past is still a present here. Cyclists all over the world think that Ethiopia is one of the hardest places to be cycling in because of the children that throwing stones and sticks on the bicycles… After the crazy and dangers desert of north Kenya (after I finish it I herd about killings and robbers on the same road that I cycled a week ago…) I got to the border city Moyale in the South of Ethiopia and it was amazing to see how many things are different from this side of the border. Different language, different food and culture. Some of my best friends (the Shapira family) were in organized group that travel in North Ethiopia and I could not miss them so I left the bike in Moyale and took a 2 days long bus to the capital of Ethiopia Adis Ababa.
