Hi Priscilla
raising young children in addis is great- you have a lot of help from very loving and caring people. most people rely a lot on play dates and school to entertain as there is not much to consistently do here other than swimming, tennis lessons, a few soccer teams...
for children over the age of 8 or so it gets a bit harder as they want more variety - again, school is the social center.
how old are your children? if you have any other questions please feel free to contact me -
