❤Beautiful Ethiopia 🇪🇹. Thanks for sharing your experience!
I like the way people are busy with construction and from the look of things there is soo much growth.Thanks Tim for this👏
As Ethiopian I love both Nairobi & Addis. They're really close to my heart and thanks for your positive attitude towards my country. Love you Kenyans 🇰🇪.
Greetings from Hawassa,Ethiopia.Welcome to Addis.Yes,the city is under construction 24/7.After a few months everything would be in place and ready for use.
city is beautiful
The whole city is a construction site. Ethiopia is currently going through a major uprising.
For your information the inner city is Piasa to Arat Kilo but also under construction sites now.
Where is the uprising?

Abet wushet....😂😂😂😂 yimmechih gin 😂😂😂😂
Bro come back after 2 or 3 month Addis Ababa is under road corridor project you will see the difference
Nairobi is also close to my heart.
Thankyou for your positive perspective of my city ❤
Thanks for Coming in Ethiopia and Ofcoarse for your positive reviews ❤🎉
I'LL VISIT ETHOPIA SOON.
THANKS BRO ETHIOPIA ADDIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL
I’m very surprised,beautiful…watching you from Sydney,Australia…
Thank you..I am Ethiopean currently living in beautuful Sydney
Welcome to Ethiopia 🇪🇹 brother , I recommend you to visit our traditional restaurants to see our food and cultural dances , and Ethiopian museum too ❤🙏one love Africa
Hi Africa Expat
Thank you for the video you have shown us today. If you go on other side of Bole to meskel squre road, the road is mostly better than road that you saw Bole to wello sefer today. The road that you see today or that you are surprised is a new construction road that is not completed yet, because you saw a lot of construction today. I hope when the road that you saw is completed, it can reach the other area in Addis Ababa. There are many areas that are mostly better than what you saw today in Addis Ababa. I hope you can visit again and enjoy with the other area in Addis Ababa next time or you can watch on Yutube which is updated latest.
Thank you sir, will definitely visit again for longer to explore other parts as well.
Watching from Kenya
Wow!! We, Ethiopians thank you for having such a good attitude about Ethiopia bro.
You and Mika, Swahilination Media have been doing a great job about One Africa. And i would like to say keep it up.
Ethiopia can be a great example especially to kenyans.
15:47~15:57 Amaizing building.
really amazing huh?😏😂
Great content 👌 enjoyed this
Glad you enjoyed
This is the best video I have seen from an African content creator in a while. The guy has a way of story telling which is captivating & makes one at ease. 👍🏽
Glad you enjoyed it!
Addis looks more more developed, more modern than our overhyped Nairobi, true or false? Honest opinion.
Absolutely true. As a Nairobian who frequents ET, I can say this with absolutely no doubt. And not just Addis. Other smaller cities and towns across ET are more developed and have levels of infrastructure we couldn't dream of in Nairobi.
Nairobi only looks nice from aerial shots. The reality on the ground is different.
@@freddyvoorhees9749 Nope Addis can't be close. I don't know which cities you are talking about in Ethiopia and the well planned Kenyan cities.
Nope if I get a job in my profession in Nairobi. I wont bat an eye honestly. Ethipia is going downhill bro
"I don't know where the people are living?" is a very good question. Im Ethiopian, living in Uganda and buildings here are not only occupied by 'business' people do live in them...which I believe is quite nice...making people close to the city, making house more available
Over all Im happy to see my city blossoming like her name, and thank you brother for your positivist. Respect 😉
ethiopia is beautiful
Amazing place ❤🎉
Welcome our kenyan brother. This is your second home. Most of the buildings are not hotel. Most regular city ethiopians are camera shy. But it is not a negative attitude. This is not the case in rural areas, so just ask for permission. Come back next time and visit the country outaide the capital. You will then appreciate what ethiopia has to truly offer.
Thank you for your visit and positive attitude bro, and that overpassing line is not express way for cars, that is actually the " addis abeba's light rail line" 😊
Better late than never, am here finally 👍
bro said the best coffee I ever had to the coffee i been drinking 3 times a day.
Good stuff
Kazi safi bro welcome to Addis ababa
🎉🎉
Thank you!
You are welcome to Addis brother!
Nice Timmo
Addis is so amazing 🥰
We are waiting for u in kisumu
also we learn many things from Kenya tanx bro !
Most layovers/connecting flight arrangements offer that.
24:39 - You understood the assignment - good job
Tnx bro
I like the way there walkways is big
Wow,,,,your accent has greatly changed
So aprciat about ethiopia
am Ethiopian I love Kenyan to Kenya is beautiful country + people ♥️🔥🇪🇹
These are not new buildings but walkways for pedestrians are being constructed in front of the buildings. … and some of the buildings are actually apartments not hotels 😊
Welcome to Ethiopia the Kingdom of the Most High the King of King's Selassie. Nice VLOG brother of my beloved city Addis Abeba.
Ya bro the road in the high way is closed temporary for maintenance.
Vert nice
why do most foreigners go to just bole i mean its good but not as developed and fun as piassa , mexico , sarbet , wollo sefer etc with huge skyscrapers which are 200 meters plus its also a must to visit kuriftu water park in bishoftu city which is 60km from addis ababa and takes less than an hour to drive there on safe toll roads
and also pls walk on the foot roady you may get fined upto 150 birr for walking on roads instead of pathways
@eyuelzelalem2412 exactly..this is also my question. The area from sar bet to Bisrate Gebriel is refreshing and amazing.
Been long,I last watched you wakati uli join British army hadi siku hizi unafanya Vida kwa kingoso!!!!! Na channel ilikuwa inaitwa huku Yukei.
I was there six years ago and I remember my grandmother told me the next time you come down here you are not going to be able to recognize the city however Your wrong about the Chinese worker's they only hire Chinese for the construction and not Ethiopians the Ethiopian government only hires Chinese labor for when it comes to building designers, contractors and engineers considering that the Chinese are the best in the market and the fastest builders in the world today meaning that bricklayer, Carpenter, electricians and Plumbers “Etc.” are all Ethiopian citizens and that is by law.
@8:11 Also 110 Brand new and modern are on their way to join the current Airplane
❤❤❤ Addis Ababa
How did you get the free hotel room and for how many nights?
I love my Kenyans welcome to my beloved country Ethiopia.
I don't know what matatu. or boda boda 😂😂😂😂
But that 27:47 the government builds housing for parliament members during the communism era, I think some 30 years ago.
Those houses were top tier in the 90s I remembered and it was the shit during 2000ds to hang out around there.\
Be positive for kenya even in one thing.. if you are getting a lay over in kenya ,then you can get such services in the hotels
Kenya does not have any program of that kind, i am a frequent traveller and i know. I post so that kenya can learn
You should probably fly KQ on a flight longer than 10hrs then see the experience, you will find out.
Good one Omera, which Gopro are you using?
gopro 10
ማሻአላህ
Dear brother,
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to share some urgent concerns about your recent invitation to Ethiopia by the government, aimed at promoting the construction of asphalt roads, road lights, parks, fountains, and other leisure projects.
While these developments may appear impressive, it is crucial to understand the context and the profound human suffering that lies beneath this facade. The Ethiopian government, led by Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed, has spent 33 billion on these projects. This lavish expenditure occurs in a country where millions struggle to eat even once a day, and government employees often rely on church donations for their lunch. The Prime Minister himself advised the public to survive on bread and bananas, highlighting the dire situation.
Despite this, the government has invested heavily in military drones and weapons, funded by loans from the IMF and World Bank, supposedly on behalf of the people. Ethiopia has been engulfed in a civil war for the past six years, marked by extrajudicial killings, kidnappings for ransom, and rampant violence. The Ethiopian defense forces have committed countless atrocities, including the rape of numerous girls.
The suffering is particularly severe for the Amhara ethnic group, with millions of them detained in concentration camps simply because of their ethnicity. There is no freedom of the press, and journalists who criticize the government are imprisoned. Many Amhara politicians who attempted peaceful opposition are also in jail. The government's oppressive actions are not limited to one group, but the Amharas have faced especially brutal treatment.
Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed has orchestrated a facade of progress, using staged photos and theatrical displays to present a false image of change to the world. However, the reality is starkly different. The government’s human rights abuses and oppression are widespread and severe.
As a respected influencer, your voice can significantly shape public perception. While your intention might be to highlight positive aspects of Ethiopia’s development, it is vital to also expose the harsh realities faced by its people. Focusing only on the superficial improvements of the capital city risks misleading your audience about the true state of the nation.
If you are participating in this promotion as part of your professional obligations, I understand the complexities you might face. However, I urge you to consider the broader implications of promoting a regime responsible for widespread suffering and human rights violations. Ethiopia is experiencing a tragic chapter in its history, with ongoing genocide and severe suppression of dissent.
Please take this information into account and strive to use your platform responsibly. The world needs to know the truth about the plight of the Ethiopian people and the grim reality behind the government’s propaganda.
Thank you for taking the time to read this letter. I hope you will consider the gravity of the situation and make informed decisions about the content you share.
Sincerely,
Thanks brother, i will make a separate video and highlight these issues, same thing happening in other East African countries too
Whats new? seems like this long msg is written about other countries in the continent..some even worse..
Love from Ethiopia 🇪🇹 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 0:23
Addis😍
My kenyan brother i love you liked your stay. But you can't even walk ouy of your hotel.. That is not good.. That is our life... I love kenya and your freedom, a country progressing our country is stateless...
@@AgriTechSolutions360 exactly! No matter how they try and shine it up in Bole, we know what’s really going on! Poor people displaced, jailed for being Amhara, no jobs, police brutality, massacre of innocent civilians. There is no freedom. It’s not crowded because people are afraid to leave their homes n most don’t have jobs. Go further out of Bole area to see what’s really going on.
THEY ARE PREPARING THEMSELVES TO BE LIKE DUBAI OF AFRICA. KENYA WE NEED TO UP OUR GAME.
Hapa kenya matumbo ni kubwa ya boses... I work there as a cleaner and kQ just imported 5 office chairs at 580k.
What is bota bota and madadoo
Bro so how does it work do you call the airline and ask about the package ?

I'm pretty sure the cleaner didn't take the money when you give the tip you should give them in person
Those are not Hotels but residential apartments
Fika down town ya huko, nadai kuona kitu🙃
I think they demolish the old one and build the new construction
@@coolnassa1420 yes
One of the best hotel on the earth, and you say not too bad? You should be happy with Ethiopian airline achievement. One of the best in the world.
'not too bad' is british slang for 'very nice'
FYI so many people die sitting in the toilet.
Reason: read about it, if no cell phone near by, that phone is for emergency.😮
Lol nobody will take your tip like that 😂 that’s considered stealing 😂
Great experience bt I don't know why KQ are always expensive & offer poor services it's a shame
Kenya airlines need to tighten up
Kenya yetu jameni. Tutafika tu mdogo mdogo.
kenya or uk in your experience living in both?
video coming up
You are lucky to see bole road not in a traffic jam 😂
Thanks for showing what Addis looks like, but please don't afraid to film. Ethiopian people are not like others. They will tell you if they don't like it, but the majority of people don't care. What is bodaboda and matatu?
Thank you, boda and matatu are transportation motorbikes and vans for public transport
@@AfricanExpat Thanks!
It's due to construction, that's why they weren't using the express way
I Love kenyans
those are not hotels those are apartments
🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹🇪🇹
Meaning you didn't manage to join the UK military
woza koka
Been there bro. Great place. But I didn't like the restaurant. Too crowded. Even getting cutlery was an issue.
Bro, is it true that right now in Ethiopia, its 2017?
no it's not we're still in 2016😉
we're still in 2016
After 2 month we reach 2017
It's 2016 according to the Ethiopian calender, we also use the Julian and gregorian calender too depending on the purpose.
So tell us this hotel ,sorry for my ignorance is this a transit hotel ? Or normal hotel ? Is it owned by Ethiopian airlines ,and what is the criteria of booking those hotels

Usitudanganye tuseme tu ukweli kwa maendeleo Kenya iko juu 😅
Ethiopians are still conservative"" right explanation
We are not as used to be..
John 3:16
Many buildings renovated not constructed our current president has a many project
@@mercyaster7411 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🤫🤫🤫
I understand you changed your image for growth... But why do i miss the old you 😢
Most of the buildings are owned by Ethiopian affluent & gov
the expres way is under construction that's why no one is using it
10 million people living in Addis Ababa…how about Nairobi?
Same number I think
No that's not true. Only 5mil leave here in addis
You must drink with out sugar please let it is nice I see construction everywhere 😂❤
Yes, thank you
