MY BACKGROUND
I used to work for Australian Consolidated Press for over 10 years before going freelance and worked on magazines such as Gourmet Traveller, House and Garden, Woman’s Day and Weekly as well as the New York Times, Murdoch Books. Over the years, I have also taught photography and out of this grew a demand for photographic tours. I have travelled all over the world for both work and leisure and have teamed up with another person who has also travelled extensively and has worked and spent a lot of time in Ethiopia. He has come up with a very exciting 18 day trip taking in the highlights of Ethopia, with beautiful scenery (similiar to the Grand Canyon and Utah), extremely old churches with beautiful paintings and high priests, colourful markets, baboons etc. We would be staying in very nice accommodation, have small groups and personal photography tutition throughout the trip. Ethiopia is one of those countries that is an exciting new destination that people are just discovering now and as there isn’t much infrastructure for easy travelling, it makes more sense to go on an organised tour with local guides who know all the best places to see and photograph.
Please check out our website www.photoadventours.com and under December photos, click on FLICKR where I have uploaded lots of photos from our previous trip.
Some of the money from the tour will be also to help the Catherine Hamlin Fistula Hospital in Addis Abba.
