By the crater of the lake in Wanchi, small crystal clear springs sing a soothing lullaby on their way down the evergreen forests. Yes, Wanchi is a lot more than it's crater lake featuring everything from a beautiful forest of indigenous trees to a mountainside with small streams and even hot springs. Have you ever been to this paradise on Earth? What did you think of it?

A seminal work of literature and anthropology, Professor Asmerom Legesse’s book “Gada: Three Approaches to the Study of African Society” remains the most authoritative text in the study of the complex and incredible Gadaa System. Professor Asmerom manages to capture the mechanics and spirit of the Gadaa system based on his extensive experience of the Borana Oromo - one of the strictest adherents of the system to date - and marries that to the larger story of the Oromo starting with creation and cosmology. For his dedication to the truth and this most important of Oromo stories, Professor Asmerom will always be a hero - goota - of the Oromo people.

The beautiful Ilkee Falls on the Gebba river form a scenery worth fairytales and fantasy lands, cascading downhill across the blanket of greenery that is the Ilubabor highland rainforest. Ilu clearly is nature’s favorite.
