🤓 I’m Christine and I keep it REAL💯 and REAL FUN. I do A LOT of research before I travel and I take EVERYTHING I learned and EVERYTHING I experienced and I make the travel videos I WISH I GOT TO SEE. That’s what you’re seeing in this video and I hope it helps!
📱I created the first 100 KZread videos of this channel using just my iPhone. I both shot and edited everything from my phone (mainly while standing in lines at the airport or sitting on the beach) cuz I’m a non-stop traveler. I’ve evolved (not much! I still film from my phone!) since then. This is a list of…

I think you pointed out everything that I had in my mind. Something's I would like to add is that buying tickets to travel into Ethiopia in January are expensive because many people travel back home to celebrate Christmas or Epiphany. I will recommend also to visit the national museum, its probably outdated but you have to compromise between Unity Park or National museum.

There are many things I love about watching Christine’s travel videos, one of which is she makes me feel like I’m actually traveling with her to experience the country scene. It’s a wonderful way to see the world without having to do the traveling yourself. Thanks Chris ❤️

Great video and tips. I appreciate you sharing. You brought up great points of traveling alone and getting around and hoping you are not being taken advantage of. That would be my biggest fear especially when traveling solo.

Just like to ask, can you use international bank cards like Master/Visa? Is it easy to get money exchanged?
@ChristineLozada
5 ай бұрын
Thank you I appreciate you! To answer your question: within Addis at the "main hotels, businesses and establishments" - yes using a credit card (like mastercard and visa) is fine. Obviously there are lots of local markets and vendors in which I was paying cash only. Yes - getting money exchanged was easy (there are lots of banks). I hope that helps!!

The conflict in Tigray was something I was highly aware of.. eeeee... it's been going on a long time. It's interesting because all my friends living there felt safe, but I felt on edge.
Greenery? You kidding right? I think you only visited around financial center only... I am just saying.
