Ethiopia
The Last Utopia
At the crossroads of East Africa and Arabia and stretching from the Great Rift Valley to the Blue Nile, Ethiopia is quite rightly an "Utopia" for many reasons - a tolerant cohabitation of Christianity and Islam, some of the most incredible geology and landscapes in the world, a fascinating culture that evokes of a world preserved in time and incredible wildlife not to mention some of the most primitive tribes in the Omo Valley. Ethiopia may still be recovering from its storied past as recent as its communist regime in the 80s but it has changed rapidly and the opportunity to discover it reaps great rewards for the trailblazers.
