… the time I’m already back in Switzerland again

Last update: 2004-25-06, Addis Ababa

Kenya was a bit more then, as first thought, just transit. I ended up staying there for some 6 weeks but, since I had a great time and saw beautiful things, I have absolutely no regrets. For more about my time in Kenya please read the corresponding report by clicking here or by or looking it up in my Travelbook.

The last week I spend then traveling from Moyale via the Omo Valley up to Addis Ababa. Though I had frustrating times – mainly every time I had to wait for trucks to come and did not know when they would come and had therefore the hang around – overall, I had a great time. I meat just wonderful peoples who invited me to eat lunch with them or having a coffee and pastry – by fare to many of this pastry shops here, I gone get fat here Ethiopia.

Since I heard many stories that the Ethiopian are not friendly I wonder whether this is more in the North then in the South and so I’m eager to see the North. I will be here in Addis till I finally will get my Sudanese Visa – should have been ready three days ago but then there have first not seen the Ambassador for four days, the cashier was not around or just returned to Sudan and then today the man with the key for the locker had not been around – Africa!!!! I eager to see what tomorrow will be :-).

My plan is now to travel in northern Ethiopia for about two more weeks before heading to Sudan and then to Egypt. Then my trip will lead me to Switzerland to do my ‘Swiss Project‘ were I like to arrive at the 8th of August. (Considering that I’m about half way between Cape Town and Switzerland and the fact that it took me, how long by now?, some 5 months to get here, I’m not sure how I will mange to get home on time but I will give my best)

In case you are in the area of Zug/Cham, Switzerland on the 8th of August or you just like to have a good Swiss Breakfast, you are more then welcome to the come to my ‘Welcome-To-Switzerland-Brunch’ (I’m not sure whether it is a ‘Welcome-Back-To-Switzerland-Brunch’ yet). In case you need a place to stay over for some days, there are a few beds at my parents place or then it is best if you bring a sleeping mattress and a sleeping bag – there should be some floor space available.

The brunch starts at 10:30 AM – if I get there on time with me otherwise without – and it would be great if you could drop me, or even better, my parents at [email protected] a line if you intend to come so that they know how many peoples will come. You can also come on a short-term-decision – I’m sure we will find something to eat for you.

How to find me, or better said, how to find my parents place, you can see here
