Some thoughts on travel in Ethiopia

It is absolutely true. While you can't compare it to developed countries and there is surely a way to go, a lot of people have real misconception of this place. I stayed with a local family last summer launching a non-profit business that connects rural villages in Ethiopia (www.AfricaUniteOnline.com) and the love the people show you is just astounding. I was welcomed with open arms and it is a lot more developed than I think people realize. Overall, amazing place to visit and I would highly reccomend it. And concerning the food, they are absolutely right. I've had American "Ethiopian" food and it doesn't even come close. Last, if you're there try to the lamb tibs. They are a revelation.
