No acces to blogspot in Addis

Mucky is BACK and ALIVE and KICKING!!


People!!I have tried so so hard and so many times to get on the net and to get on my blog, with, as you can see, no result. As i have been in several countries where communism still raines or has been a part of it's history i never even thought of the possibility of a lack of freedom in Ethiopie! Hmm...could very well be that i have been naive in not thinking about this!

BUT,....i am back! And i am safe! And i have had the most interresting and exciting month in Ethiopie!

I do not know where to begin and what words to use to describe briefly to you what i have seen, and it not ending up in a to long winded story! I have SO much to share and so many moments to describe!!And......... so many pictures to show you!

As i hopped off the airplane only 1 day and a few hours ago i am looking for time and energy to posts some blogs! For now, i can mention the 10 following things;

1) Ethiopie = beautifull and divers
2) Ethiopie = alot of kind and beautifull people
3) Ethiopie = Fresh Macchiatto's at Addis very own Kaldi's coffeeshop=Starbucks
4) Ethiopie = alot of curious people to who you are and where you come from as you are 1 out of the 10-100 tourists that have the guts to go there!!
5) Ethiopie = Enjera's, fresh MANGO's and BANANA's like you've never tasted before
6) Ethiopie =SO much POVERTY!= streetkids=young mothers and their kids etc....
7) Ethiopie = A big gap between the rich, the average and the poor!
8) Ethiopie = NGO's all over the place!!! ( doing GOOD so so GOOD work!!!)
9) Ethiopie = HIV and therefore also alot of orphans
10) Ethiopie = Orphanage Rehobot with it's 12 amazing and sweet kids!!!!

People!! You haven't given your money to the wrong project! Every Euro has counted and will still count for the 12 former street kids of Rehobot!

It has been interesting, surprising, amazing, thought provoking, provoking feelings of wanting to do more, wanting to give more, wanting to love more, confusing, hard, tough and emotionaly draining! BUT..........It was everything BUT boring!!

I will share more in detail with you on what we have bee able to do with Mucky's Euroknaller!
I can already say that project SHOES has been a great succes! We contracted a taxi-mini-bus (as is normal in Addis) to take them on a little surprise-trip to the market! The kids were exited and started singing on the bus! As it took us appr. 40 min to get to the very famous and dangerous MERCATO, Naomi and i thought "let's get them some treats to keep them bussy during the trip" ....so we bought them some lollie pops!.........After having tried on, bargained on, and visited so many shoes "soeuks"........and getting them NEW SHOES and SLIPPERS..........in the end.......it was the lolllie pop that did it all for them,: )!

My thanks to you is still so GREAT! And i will make time to write more!

Also, i have been able to get into contact with so many good organisations that, if you'dd like, someday, you yourself could go and DO GOOD WORK !

....hey,..... if I can do it, YOU can do it!


I happen to have a good deal for you on flight tickets in december/januarie.....

Lots of love, many selamnu's=greetings and till soon.

Toedelsss!!
