  • I ride from Karat Konso to Yabelo, back into the Oromia region, in Ethiopia, in Africa. I suffer my first puncture in a very long time, and the second part of the ride pushes me to my limits... a terrible 50 kilometers climb.
    On the way, a friendly truck driver decides to protect me, and to help me as he can.
    Finally, in Yabelo, in a small local restaurant, this beautiful woman constantly stares at me.

      I thought the same thing. The way they bend over backwards to help a non-black person is mind boggling. 9/10 times they won't do the same for another black person what they were doing in this video. I think they think by being nice/helpful there will be some kind of reward/compensation for their help. Otherwise, I can't explain this behavior.

      Africans just need to change this kind of thinking. Man can be made rich.Africans can change if we are educated and made. So we should not be surprised by Europeans.Remember they are people like us

    Hellow Yves, I am really proud of your journey. Very exceptional!
    A few comments:
    1. Please don't set your mind that everyone approaching you are asking for money. One female elderly approached to comfort you and say hello, but you think she was asking for money. Not at all. Except kids( which will change soon and they are kids only) 99% are not interested of a penny from a stranger. Rather they are happy to see you around and are expressing their good feelings the way the know. I think you noticed that.
    2. What do you think of the road infrastructure generally?
    3. In the middle multiple challenges and war I see you are peacefully moving and byclcing in the remote areas with a few unfortunate incidents. What do you say about it? What should be done to make it better?
    4. I see in many places you reached in Ethiopia have a basic services even for a budgeted tourists like you. What kind of plan and recommendations do you suggest for such small scale businesses and tourist or passenger outlets to improve their services in having a standard kitchen, toilet, tourist information center, and clean surroundings. What do you recommend?
    5. Compared to your tours in Africa, what should Ethiopia improve and what should it keep it up?
    Thank you very much showing us our country deep inside. Many are only limited in the cities and you have done a great assessment to see ourselves deep inside.
    Keep it up and Meric Trie Bien!

Mentally travelling nowdays is unthinkable in Ethiopia due to fear of security reasons and conflicts here and there, but, ya ...our brave friend is disproving this misconception.

Many of us cannot afford the journey to Ethiopia to experience for ourselves just as many in Ethiopia cannot afford to come to South Africa..

      All Africans are Africans and we share common ancestry going back centuries. It is a mistake to think that 1000 years ago there was Botswana, South Africa, etc as you'd want us to believe... Your thinking is that of apartheid colonialist mentality.. With the type of education we got as Africans under colonialism all over the continent, it is understandable where your reasoning is coming rom.
