WHO ARE WE

We are Selam and Andiy. After Natnael passed away we wanted to continue his task of teaching children about their country of origin and helping families to find their stories.
This blog is to teach the children that go abroad something about their birth country and to give to the adoptive parents a way to search the biological family of their child.

Is important what you tell your children about themselves.

THE COFFEE CEREMONY

Here in Ethiopia coffee is an important part of the social life. In every house and in every moment the items for the coffee ceremony are ready.

The coffee time is a time that people use to be together, to share the things of the daily life. In a neighbourhood people invite each other to have coffee and most of the days there is someone preparing bunna for the other neighbours. With this life style all the neighbours know each other and also they help each other when is necessary.

The coffee is part of the heart beat of Ethiopians. That is why it has been created the coffee ceremony. Everything has a way to be done and all the people know the different steps to prepare and drink the coffee in a traditional way.

I would like to make you smell and taste an Ethiopian bunna but to invite you to a coffee ceremony… online is a bit difficult!!
