    I’m happy to watch your videos, I came back to Ethiopia after I was away 11 years! And I was lonely most of those years 😢 in the US, but that is behind me now. Praise the Lord. I’m now living in my father’s village or small town and enjoying it.

    What businesses would you recommend to start for someone coming from US after 14 years

    • @princesslivingfree
      @princesslivingfree  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      There’s so many good ones! For example, a private school with good education (so far Summit has the best ones but this is lacking in other parts of the city). Another one is healthy kids snacks that can be packaged for school (i.e. granola bars). I still think there’s lots of room here in the restaurant space. Sometimes I crave GOOD food outside of Ethiopian like the variety we have in the U.S.
      Basically, I would say that anything that’s already being done here you could improve on, or do something that you’ve seen in the States that doesn’t exist here. Also, most consumer goods (food, cosmetics, clothing) are imported, so you can look for ways to produce locally. Good luck!
