After finishing 27 months in Zambia and wrapping up my Peace Corps service. I spent a short week in Nairobi visiting an old Sudanese friend and then met another Peace Corps volunteer in Ethiopia to travel around for one month. I followed this with more traveling, but I’ve been home in Phoenix, Ariz. since October. I’m now settled back home and getting ready to work and live in the great Southwest of the United States of America.

Below are some photographs of Tigray and the area’s rock hewn churches. The area is stunning, a landscape without one area uncultivated or managed for livestock. There are mountains and hidden in the heights are small entrances to carved churches. I’ve only included a few photographs in this post, which regardless couldn’t show the true beauty of the place. I hope to add more posts from Ethiopia in the future.
