TESFA (Tourism in Ethiopia for Sustainable Future Alternatives) runs treks through the communities of Meket Woreda, North Wollo. It's a great opportunity to get off the beaten path. We visited villagers at their homes, churches and farms, viewed beautiful highland scenery, and were swarmed by very excitable children at every turn—not one who wanted anything more than to shake our hands.

Open-air cold shower at the second camp, Wajela. It was too chilly by the time we arrived to shower, unfortunately, but it was definitely picturesque.

We came across these adorable kids jumping rope, and Jodie soon joined in.

Most of these kids are young enough that they wouldn't know any other option than digital cameras...which is why they were uniformly disappointed I couldn't show them my pictures. I found it sort of funny in a place without electricity or running water that digital cameras are considered commonplace...at least for the various ferenjos that stroll by the fields.

It's Sunday! Church time, for several hours, to drink barley beer and converse with good friends. These ladies were just extricating themselves and passed by our lunch spot. We soon headed toward the "beer festival" ourselves.
