My name is Tewodros, I was born in 1980 in the small town of Lalibela. I grow up there for three years then my family moved to the big town of Addis Ababa, the capital city of Ethiopia or you can say the capital city of Africa b/c i have access to get a job as i am the seat of African union. I have been working as a tour guide since 2003 all over Ethiopia Now I based in Addis Abeba I have attended the school and finished my high school level. Before to proceed to my college or university I had to find a job to cover my school fee. So I have been working and studying at the same time. I worked in the day time and studied in the night time. I worked at the post office communicating with different people from all over the world, which gave me the chance to improve my language skills, talking in French and English. I graduated in the field of tour operators and guiding from Lion Ethiopia Tourism and Hotel College. I continued my university studies in Personnel management at the Alpha university for four years, as well as French language at Alliance Etho Francis for two years and half. As I mentioned above, I have been working as a tour guide more than 15 years and gained experience in the tourism sector. Currently, I am working as freelance tour guide with different local and international companies, speaking both French and English. I am also a member of the tour guide association, actively participating on development of occupation standard and assessment for culture and hotel tourism sector. I am happy to work with people coming from different parts of the world introducing and promoting my country, Ethiopia. We have multi diversity, cultural tribes with more than 80 local languages spoken. Each tribe has its own dressing and hair styles. We have cultural, historical, natural sites, adventure tours can be offered too because my country is rich in history and all the listed above. Ethiopia is also the land of the origins. The first human kind discovered place is Ethiopia, her name is Luce, 3. 2 million years old. We have other historical sites like Axum stale compound the stales, 4 century after the birth of Jesus Christ and the merry church where the original Arc of covenant is. In addition, we have lakes in the north and south part of Ethiopia with different species of birds, hippopotamus, crocodiles, etc. Our tourism motto was "13 months of sun shine" which means there is a sun even if in the winter time. Now it has been changed into "The land of origins" because we are the land of the first human kind. So there are many things to visit and see! I look forward to meet you here! 1. Certificate Tour guiding and operator from Lion Ethiopia Hotel and Tourism college. 2. Certificate CPR and AED information course for lay rescue from Australasian Registry Emergency Medical Technicians. 3. Certificate by Ministry of Culture and Tourism about activity participated and assessment tools for culture and tourism sector. 4. Certificate national workshop for tour guides conducted by a local operator. 5. National qualification certificate tour guiding from Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia. I have a driving license but I don't drive during my tours to give full attention to guiding only.
