Ethiopia, ten images

North shows its history with the high forehead, knowing that their kings were great and that his story is beautiful. The south is primtivo, their ancestral tribes are, frozen in time. The people of Ethiopia, the three times I was there, I found girls, rogue, generous, educated and too much weight in their eyes. There was a certain sadness, a field alive and quiet and a free cities.

There is something hypnotic sway of people, the bustle with which Africa desnorta, aimlessly, without further horizons than a president less corrupt than the previous, a rainy season more lenient

Ethiopia (In): in search of Spanish who discovered the sources of the Blue Nile

Children are behind the rider meowing "yuiyuiyui"; yui means foreign. All reach out asking for money. The panhandling becomes suffocating. It is certainly worse than in any other African country that has been. As for the legend that throw stones, true. Some of these beggars are children and there are also skillful slingers to be careful.

Gondar: Africa's Camelot

At the foot of the Simien Mountains, Ethiopia holds in its bowels a legacy as valuable as unknown. Who would expect to be confronted by the silhouette of several medieval castles cut in the heart of Africa?
