GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT ETHIOPIA AND ADDIS ABABA

Ethiopian people are generous, and the country is beautiful and diverse and provides a lot of opportunity for nature lovers, but it must be remembered that the country is a developing one. Progress is slow, and you will not find all the conveniences you might find in western countries.

Religion and an intense pride in their countrys past resonate loudly within most Ethiopians. Fro them, Ethiopia has stood out from all African nations and proved itself to be a unique world of its own " home to its own cultures, languages (more than 83), script, calendar, system of telling the time, food, flora, fauna and history (it was the only African country to fight off colonization successfully)! Rock hewn churches, 17th-century castles and island monasteries provide just a few of the more well-known tourist attractions.

Addis Ababa is relatively safe with crime levels low, although pickpockets are common in crowded areas. Transportation around the city is by local mini bus (costs between 1.25 Ethiopian Birr and 3.60 Ethiopian Birr) or contract taxi (price negotiated before trip and depending on distance). Both traditional and western food is available at the numerous restaurants and cafes.

Housing info:

Teachers will be given shared housing in a modern house located close to the school. They have their own bedroom and will share bathrooms, living room, kitchen, and other facilities.
