Day 11 in Ethiopia Mission Accomplished
Achievement Unlocked: Explored without paying tips or joining tours—just traded hotel freebie soaps for photos with locals! 📸 Photo Spot 📍 Between Key Afer & Jinka How to get there: Take a minibus from Jinka/Konso and ask to stop near the stilt-walking boys (painted in white patterns) and Hamer women. No fees needed: Unlike pricey tribal tours ($100+), here you can gift small items (soaps, pens) for photos. My robbery story: Happened when my moto-taxi left me solo on a remote holiday (no cars/people around). 2️⃣ Mountain folks: Kind but unpredictable. Balance trust with caution. 🎒 Pack Light Downsized from two 46-inch suitcases to one—soap bribes work better than extra clothes! #EthiopiaTravel #SoloTravel #BudgetHacks #NoTourNeeded
