  • Things have changed. As a traveler, I live with changes, but this is a major one. I enjoy going anywhere, yet not everywhere is home. After years of living in the U.S. I have relocated and it was the best decision I made this year. Stay tuned to find out the where, how and why.
    hope you guys enjoy this vlog,

    Nishu, I remember those beautiful days in NGS, you and dagi acing basketball games and trainings, and we literally ran from our classes just to see you play & get inspired. Well fast forward, we played basketball in NGS till our senior year too! And i can speak you were one of the inspirations for us to start playing. & i am sure many followed this process even after we left. I can't believe to the woman you turned to. I am so proud of you. You have always been inspirational and still being one. I am sure the future holds better opportunities and challenges for you to overcome and become the woman you want. I am genuinely triggered by most of your videography skills. You unknownly put this motivation for many (for sure). Becha i can't emphasise your impact on us. May God be with you with every decision of your life. You are loved! (Please keep on doing these videos :) )

    I’m really inspired by your story. I have had a dream to move back to Addis and starting a business after living abroad for year in the west, and make Addis my home again but haven’t made a move yet because of fear of what’s on the other side. Your story just reminded me again that my dream is still possible. Good on you and keep up the great work❤

    Woooow I'm so impressed to bump into this channel, I think for an Ethiopian you are one of the kind, Ethiopian people tend to want stick to their community, their own people, not so open to other nations and cultures. I can fully relate to you desire going back home. As beautiful as western Countries are, there's nothing like Africa. With me it's Germany and I'm torn apart between Germany and my home country South Africa. I absolutely love the life you are aspiring to. Success is being happy, the life you live is spiritual. I love your country, I'm also aspiring for Ethiopia.

    But unless you have a U.S. or other powerful passport, traveling abroad for vacation is not going to be easy. You have to always apply 5-6 months ahead and go through a frustrating visa process to visit a single European country.

  • @addi1601

    I just found your channel and I love your content! Just subscribed! This is beautiful and as a diaspora myself I am so happy to see others go back home. One thing I want to add is that it is not this easy for many. Finding a remote job that pays well and allows you to work anywhere in the world is hard, there are a few jobs that offer this option. The cost of living abroad is only cheap if you get paid in dollars or a similar currency. For those that work in Ethiopia, the cost of living is insane, even worse than in the US. Many are desperate to leave and will not hesitate if given the opportunity. Even doctors and engineers struggle to find jobs and live on their own. From the video, your living room, kitchen.. etc, I see that your quality of life is among the top 1% in Ethiopia and considered luxury living. Just something for viewers to keep in mind as most of the country is in poverty.
    I love Ethiopia so much and also plan on going back after I finish school to work for a nonprofit and to help others. But I know life there will not be as easy as it is here. I am all for others going back home and moving abroad as well but it is only easy if you land an extremely high-paying job or get paid in dollars.

    Very good! Good job for seeing your people and roots as priority to learn and develop before all others. I would strongly encourage you as your learning journey continues to figure out ways you can serve your community/country. Africa is full of things we need to build, fix, and modernize. It pains me when I go there to see things we can do to make every day life go smoother, but don’t because we’re comfortable with mediocrity. I plea with all of Africans/pan Africans to commit ourselves to make our continent work better and efficiently for everyone living living in it. None is coming to save Africa. The only others coming and have always come were those looking to exploit it. I tell my kids Europe/West is not built for you or built by people who sat around and did nothing. We should adapt the mind set of identifying issues, coming up with best possible solutions, implementing those solutions! PERIOD.

    Very inspiring video, Ethiopia is a wonderful place. But remember always keep your American citizenship it’s valuable. I intend to live in Ghana West Africa But I will never give up my American citizenship no matter where I live. But absolutely when I retire my money is going to go crazy far in Africa. That’s just some advice that way you keep all your bases covered. Even if you go back home to work sometimes half a year’s worth of work will probably generate enough income For you to use in Ethiopia for a couple years. I mean a very nice apartment probably run you about $500 a month. While in LA you could you can get a dump for $3000 a month and I’m talking about a little bitty one bedroom place. But at the end of day it’s refreshing to see a young woman so intelligent and having their head on straight.
