Due to some unforeseen flight changes in our schedule, we didnt have much time to explore the Konso Village, but we did have enough time to experience this amazing cultural heritage site, to taste some local food. Visiting the village was a humbling experience, an area of Ethiopia that has been through famine, and to sit down and sample some food from a local family in the village, food they had grown and prepared, was truly special. It is important to remember how fortunate we are to have food on the table. Konso Village - We began the day in Addis Ababa, where we flew to Arba Minch in southern Ethiopia. After having a quick lunch, some delicious Ethiopian food fish, we drove the bumpy road to Konso. Konso culture and villages are a UNESCO world heritage site, for their preservation of culture and traditions, and it was incredibly special to visit. We toured the village, and I was amazed how advanced their systems were, and their construction. It was evening and in one of the homes we met a lady who was cooking the family meal for dinner. She was cooking sorghum, moringa leaves, and cassava. Its not the most flavorful food youll taste, but cooked with love, ingredients grown right there, it was a huge honor to share some of their food. Its a remember of how privileged and fortunate we are to have such abundance. Thanks to Dessie from Go Addis Tours for arranging everything on this trip

I love the way you are raising Micah. that boy will learn humility and acceptability from a very young age. he already is never shy to greet people and always smiles like his dad. even Ying is such a supportive wife and mother. your family is beautiful. love your food ventures. a lot of people will never want to go to the places where you go and show us the real genuineness of them from every corner of the world. we from far always think of a community in a certain way. only when we get a peek at the real thing we learn how prejudiced we really were. this is such an overwhelming experience. loved it.

Do you know as why poor people are poor and rich people are rich, this the answer poor people they always give away the little that they have for free, while rich people they don't give away anything for free.
