Tour guide in Northern Wasihun A.

My name is Wase. I grew up on a farm in the highlands of Lalibela with my nomadic family of 12. Life wasn't simple, but the vast fields bore witness to my curiosity. As a kid, I learned to obey the rules of Mother Nature, the traditions of my community, the importance of education and hard work. I spent my time as a shepherd and doing the hard work tilling, planting, fertilizing and harvesting. When I became older, I went to school in Lalibela high school and later to Addis Ababa where I got my Diploma with Three different field of studies — tourism, human resource management and French language. I also attended more training at Lalibela Vocational College in order to stay updated with current happenings and information of the world. As a member of the global family, I believe it is important to protect our world. I have kept that in mind as I worked as a trekking guide in the Nech Sar, Awash, Abune Yosef, Bale and Simien Mountains National Parks. For over a decade, I have led tours for people from all over the world around Lalibela and in tourist and non-tourist attractions across Ethiopia. I am now an official Trekking tour guide to Mt. Abune Yosef, Lalibela churches and it's surroundings tourist attraction. I try to operate it responsibly with commitment and honesty. I was born in Lalibela and it is the mountainous regions of Northern Ethiopia. I have spent my childhoods traveling the endless trails of these parts of the country. I have intimate knowledge of the churches of Lalibela, terrain, the local communities, and the cultures you will encounter in this corner of the country.
