| WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE
IN ETHIOPIA!!
Hi all
My name is Miranda from Ohio,
USA. I and my 12 students from Ohio State University had a very wonderful
educational trip to Ethiopia. We did what we intended to do in western
and southern Ethiopia. We had stayed 21 days for the entire educational
trip. Untouched Ethiopia Tours organized and facilitated all necessary
stuffs as they promised to us. Our guide tedy was a very wonderful guide.
He knows both places very well. He helped this group very much so as to
achieve what we want to. Most of the groups like the western part-very
fertile, green but still untouched area. As our guide teddy told the group,
this area is a blessed land for coffee plantaion-ethiopians calls it green
gold since it is the prime foreign exchange earner for the country. we
were also spent good time in Gambella, Bebeka where bebeka coffee plantation-the
largest in the country is found; surma (we had a soft trekking), the surma
people around kibish, dizi people in maji, Nuer and Anuak tribal people
in gam bella, and mizan teferi - admiring a very big forest and views .
To sum up, Omo valley safari was also very interesting...you feel you are
some hundreds years back which our forefathers had lived...we had a chance
to see the bull jumping ceremony, which is a prerequisite for men
in hammer tribal group to get a wife, evangadi night dance were also interesting
for us. Well I like the Mursi but they are very reluctant and a bit aggressive
if you take a picture without paying 2 birr/photo. This stuff had created
a hassle for us while we were in Musri. Needless to say we had a fabulous
experience in the hidden treasures of Ethiopia with untouched Ethiopia

All in all this short review is just sharing my first but not last experience
in Ethiopia with my fellow students.
