Ethiopia

And lets not forget the food and drink.

Caustic, sulfurous food, the national delicacy is raw meat eaten with hands. In Africa. Watch out for that tapeworm!...........

Most street girls won't take their clothes off by default, you'll have to negotiate (in Amharic) to ensure they get naked........... SNiP

.

So well written thanks, LOL.

The only thing: tapeworm I think exist only with pork meat which there isn't, but anyhow enough other things to get your stomach spoiled.

Most of the city is actually closed by around 9 pm as there is and't a lot of money to throw around in the evenings, except by the drunks in the red light areas apparently.

You'll see the big aid organisations in the three or four top hotels, shuttled round in UN white land cruisers, on their expense account salaries, but you may not see any other mongers, unless you bump into me or some of the other esteemed members of this forum. And we won't identify ourselves unless you know the secret handshake.

If you like a challenge, and are good with people and can talk your way out of a situation, not worried by being the only foreigner on the street, a keen negotiator, not looking for a single minute of GFE, but have an insatiable appetite for low end monger action with buxom african beauties (and the occasional moose) then maybe, just maybe its for you.

Thanks Darren, appreciate your candid advice on what to expect. It has most definitely lowered my expectations. In truth I wasn't going particularly for are and are, more the experience of seeing a country with an unique history and will spend most of the time outside Addis. Thanks again for taking the time.

Hi Francissacas, as Darren said, there are no new Clubs, there are no new hot spots, nothing has changed which was not already written before.

And compared to Thailand, you will run around alone, never meet anybody else, I never ever saw any other monger around, just massage salons without any other customer to be seen, if I enter one of these cheap Kazachis bars, never ever met any other Caucasian, except some young local boys. You will sit alone in these places and be obliged to help yourself. ! OK Sherato or Hilton Bar might be different.

Concerning car with driver, there are signes around at travel agenies and car rent, or just google. But we use UBER or local taxi or have our own cars as residents.

And if you have been ther the last few weeks: cold rain every day at 2200 meters altitude with 8 Celcius in the moring!

Oh and water and power. And mobile and internet coverage. And the "state of emergency" and recent coup attempt.

On your own you will be approached by drunks, bums, pan handlers and the guys who know "some girls having a party for Haile Selassies birthday". Tip: don't go.

English speaking hookers in upmarket hotels will insist it is $300 dollars a pop. Sometimes people brag about getting them down to $80 or $100. Still about 4 or 5 times too much.

Outside of the good hotels some of the short time rooms need to be seen to be believed. Hygiene is a bottle of water and a small plastic bucket or empty paint can. Once you've done the deed, she'll throw some water over herself and then relieve herself in the bucket. (Okay, those aren't the $300 hookers, more the 500 bir street meat).

Thanks Darren.

I have RTFF, I agree there is a lot there going back to the beginning of the year. I have taken notes but an up to date recent brief summary is always appreciated. New shops open, new girls appear, girls change shops, pricing changes etc. No problem though, I'm sure I will pick it up as I go along, it's just nice when somebody is willing to suggest where to currently find the best experiences.

Some more help if I may.

Best place to rent car plus driver.

Good hotel Bole. Reasonably fast WiFi and good selection TV channels. Price point 2000 to 2500 per night.

[Zupahfly]

I'm right there with Sir Mix-a-Lot.

Which is best for our hobby Bahar Dar or Awassa?

I would say Hawassa / Awassa. But you Will find some curvy big butt. In Bahir dar too. Avoid going to Bahir dar. Its the capital of Amhara region and thus one of the main hubs for political unrest and at times violence. Hawassa is much safer and just about 5 h from Addis. Bahir dar. About 14 h or 45 min flight.

[Franciscass]

Can I suggest you go back and read the forum again a little more closely, focussing on the many articles that provide direct answers to your questions e. G. Post 1827,1829 etc etc.

Multiple reports by multiple members of the board cover the MP scene, giving name, pricing, and procedural details.

Don't be fooled: Ethiopia is nothing like Thailand from a development perspective, the girls attitude perspective.

Don't be the guy who "pays extra" for nothing.

Thanks Darren.

I have read through the forum to get a feel of the scene in Addis.

I have read through the forum to get a feel of the scene in Addis. Compared to Thailand where I am based its quite low keyed but interesting enough to have some expectations. Although I have RTFF if somebody has the time to answer some questions I would greatly appreciate some guidance.

How does it work at the massage shops.

1 Can you pick from a line up.

2. How is payment made.

3 Are extras offered or do you have to ask.

4. What are usual prices for HJ BJ FS.

5 Is BJ usually be. Are some girls slim rather than big booty.

6 Which shops are top rated for looks, service and surroundings. I don't mind paying extra.

Thanks in anticipation.

[DarrenGap]

Hawassa is indeed the best outside Addis. And Sir Mix-a-Lot would approve of the booty over there. Exquisite! Other mid-size cities in Ethiopia don't even come close.

Not sure this is a good idea. If you want legit massage, your hotel likely provides that at a lower rate. If you want extras, better follow the forum advice and visit an MP.

Habesha itself is an MP very close to the Airport. They just happen to have an out call service. I have used the place once, they are openly focused on sex.

[Kib123]

For those more adventures, geting out of Addis is the best. If you want massive booties go to Hawassa, It's cheap and It's also a are&are place for many young Ethiopians and many expats.

Adama and Debre zeit less than an hour away. Smaller but OK selection.

Can anyone comment on Ethio Addis Habesha Massage? Looking into their outcall, but it's unclear what's on offer and no prices are listed on the website.

I will be in Addis soon for a few days and looking at staying in the Hilton. Does anyone know if it will be any trouble to bring a guest back in? First time visiting and didn't see Hilton mentioned much in the forum.

No problem at all. Been there many times.
