Ethiopia 2008


My third trip to this country, this time towards south, mainly province Sidamo and Gamo Gofa. Despite the season was not the best for collecting beetles I met plenty creatures and some of them present themselves on photos bellow.



Despite my comments are usually funny (or at least I try) this time I want to start untypically seriously. ".... this portion of injera would be to share with my friend Charly Werner. The trip we had planned will never come true".
