CULTURAL SHOCKS! Exploring Addis Ababa: Celebrating Ethiopian new year 2017, traditional dances

[@easymandarinclass]

Thank you my dear for visiting Ethiopia, I just want let you know we have 13 months, each month having 30days except the last month having 5days. That's why Ethiopian Tourism motto was "Thirteen Months of Sunshine" before it was changed into "Land of Origins" in 2018. Enjoy!

Around 5:00 .... The place is called Adwa Museum in Piasa, Addis Ababa. It's a memorial museum of Adwa victory of Ethiopia against Italy in 1896. Thanks for visiting us ❤.

@ffletacie yes yes.. the best part about travelling is getting to experience other cultures and learning from them. Every significant woman needs to experience that. 😃

Wow this is amazing

the dance at the end is called Tirri- an Oromo dance. You should check out more Oromo hair dances like shagoye.

why you say the title cultural shocks it seems to be negative attitude for others.

[@SignificantWoman31]

@terefe99-wt9um cultural shock is that feeling of confusion or shock that you get when you experience a new culture. I also used to think it was bad until our ethiopian host told us severally to be ready to have fun and also experience some cultural shock. So I guess it depends on how one wants to perceive it. But I didn't mean it in any bad way
