About Mekdes
I grew up running errands through Merkato. Now I show visitors the spice lanes, the recyclers’ quarter and how a proper buna is roasted.
Deep local knowledge of Addis Ababa: markets, food, coffee culture.

My grandmother was born near here. Seeing it live, with someone who knew the history, meant a lot to our family.

Thoughtful about who appeared on camera and always asked people first. Much appreciated.

The market walk was chaotic in the best way. Learned so much about prices and trade.

Felt like I was really there. The guide answered every question and the connection held up the whole way.
