I Got Paid To Travel For 2 Weeks Every Three Months, So I Went To Ethiopia

ADVERTISEMENT

I used to work in conflict zones and the organisation I worked for would encourage us to leave every three months for a week or 2 to relax and decompress. They would even give us some pocket money!

I chose Ethiopia for my first trip. It was my first experience of Africa and I was blown away by the diversity of landscapes, people and cultures within one country.
