ethiopia? why on earth would you go there..?

This was the common response I received from people in Australia after telling them I was moving to Ethiopia. And it seems I’m not the only one who gets this kind of response. I’ve had some good friends from home recently visit and they too were faced with the same question. The thing is not many people know much about Ethiopia. Which led me to make the below list of things you definitely wouldn’t want to come to Ethiopia and see:
It’s not like Ethiopia knows how to make damn good coffee:
(it is the birthplace of coffee after all)
coffee1
The tea is just as bad (so full of spices):
IMG_0027
And the music scene is just so boring:
Actually the nightlife in Addis is pretty lack luster:
IMG_2005 IMG_1939
Foodwise – there’s way too much choice for a vegetarian:
beyanetu
And the restaurants – so common:
benabeba1 benabeba2
Then there’s the scenery – don’t get me started on the scenery – it’s clearly terrible:imagehudad1simiens2simiens4The churches are pretty standard:
stgeorge1
And so inaccessible – they’re either carved out of rock underground or hidden in a cave at the very highest point on top of some very steep mountains:
church2
Decorated with a few paintings here and there:church3Oh and the people don’t smile much:
kids1 boys1 couple1 girl1
beetle05a
The endemic animals aren’t that interesting either:
gelada gelada2ibexgeladasmates
The basket weaving needs a bit more colour:




baskets
There is nothing cool about an active volcano and bubbling lava pit:
volcanoe1 volcanoe2 volcanoe3
Or floating about on the most buoyant salt lake around:
saltlakeSulphur lakes are just so dull:
sulphur2sulphur1
Speaking of lakes, this land locked countrys’ lakes are so uninspiring:
lake2 lake1

Particularly the hippos that lurk about:hippo
The accommodation around the country is pretty much same same as everywhere:
accom1
accom5




accom3 accom2
And notorious for bad views:

accom4
The hiking is just as bad (so many wild flowers on the path):
trek You see such horrible things along the way:babydonkeyAnd my friends had a terrible time visiting:

So why on earth would you go to Ethiopia!

"As part of our Internet.org efforts to connect the world, we're partnering with Eutelsat to launch a satellite into orbit that will connect millions of people.

Over the last year Facebook has been exploring ways to use aircraft and satellites to beam internet access down into communities from the sky. To connect people living in remote regions, traditional connectivity infrastructure is often difficult and inefficient, so we need to invent new technologies.

As part of our collaboration with Eutelsat, a new satellite called AMOS-6 is going to provide internet coverage to large parts of Sub-Saharan Africa. The AMOS-6 satellite is under construction now and will launch in 2016 into a geostationary orbit that will cover large parts of West, East and Southern Africa. We’re going to work with local partners across these regions to help communities begin accessing internet services provided through satellite.

This is just one of the innovations we’re working on to achieve our mission with Internet.org. Connectivity changes lives and communities. We’re going to keep working to connect the entire world -- even if that means looking beyond our planet." Mark Zuckerberg

Lily started in September 2013 in the basement of a UC Berkeley robotics lab, where Henry and Antoine built the first prototype using a Raspberry Pi and an Arduino.
In Spring of 2014, leading investors Shana Fisher and SV Angel supported the Lily vision and showed them the yellow brick road. Along the way, Robb gave Lily a heart, Rowland gave Lily courage, and Nghia gave Lily a brain.
Our mission is to release human creativity by inventing tools that allow for effortless expression. We believe that great products are built with a clear purpose.
