Addis All Around

>> Friday, July 29, 2011


Dawit Yoseph has become a good friend of mine. He is a single guy with a daughter who lives in Virginia. His passion is for his culture and he is always welcoming to those interested in his beloved Ethiopia. He started Addis All Around after witnessing the lack of information for visitors to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Today his news site is flourishing and he is swamped with the pouring in of medical, political and arts media information.

The website's blog features a new book release by Anne Marie Ruff called, "Through these Veins":

"Through These Veins weaves together the dramatically different worlds of traditional healing, U.S. government funded AIDS research, and the pharmaceutical industry in an intensely personal, fast-paced tale of scientific intrigue with both devastating and hopeful effect."

Dawit is the type of person that's loyal to his work, his culture and friends. He is always willing to give a helping hand which is a rare find these days. I love his passion and respect his view of education through an informative media source. If you're looking for live theater, sports updates, great resturants or to simply learn Amharic (one of the primary Ethiopian langauges), vist Addis All Around.
