Stick in ADDIS ABABA, ETHIOPIA
Just a quick one, two days. Two intense ones, though. So many people, so much car exhaust…you gotta like your daily dose of CO2 if you want to spend time there (what’s this ridiculous EU-commission obsession with lowering emissions all about anyway? It’s pointless once you’ve seen this.). The land of Haile Selassie, great coffee, 60s-70s architecture, beautiful faces and lots of others interesting things. Love the blue cabs. Pictures and the above ‘no comment’ type of short clip, with a landing from the cockpit in Khartum on the way back.

I think it is true. I am living in Addis 99% of Addis is just as you have seen it. The modern part of Addis represent 1% or less. That is fact. Let us accept the fact and work hard for a better future. Don´t afraid to accpt the fact.It is good we are a proud people but we can´t eat our pride. Let us do sth.
I didn’t get what the intent of this clip is. This is just one side of Addis. It is incomplete.
Dear Elias& The German Photographer,
Thank you for updating us abt our daily declining Addis because of irresponsible acts of woyanne and even the rigidity of people themselves for Change and new tech!
Hey People, stand up to build it than murmuring against where the photos are taken!
God Bless Ethiopia!
You guys and gals are funny. Why do you have to go all the way to Addis. Here in the United States 75 percent of our people dont want change. After living in here for 25 years an Ethiopian may not have tried a Mexican food or some other. I was surprised when I witnessed Ethiopians urinating in a lighted part of town using the cover of night in down town DC. You could speak in Engish to keep others from listening your secrets. If you have a masters you are the most educated person. All this is in DC. People import food items like injera, koort, kolo, etc. from Ethiopia not for the test of it but to lower food expense so that they can pay mortgage and finish the house they are building in Ethiopia. I may have exaggetated it a little bit but still it is true that we blame governments but our stagnant mentallity and backwardness is limitless and centuries old. God knows how we can change..
