two doors will open.

I started this blog in 2006. It has seen me through a lot. I have posted from different countries in east Africa that I have lived in. It chronicles a huge part of my life. And although I haven't been posting much over this past year, I haven't wanted to let it go. It means too much to me. I have decided that now, for various reasons, I am going to keep posting to this blog.

Remember though: "When one door closes, another one opens." And in this case, two doors will open.

Before I left Ethiopia I put together a family/friends blog to document our life there in Gilgel Gibe, Bonga and other construction sites that we worked. I just didn't really know how to separate it from my own personal blog. But now I am blowing off the virtual dust and reopening that blog.

In addition, I am taking me and my stay now in Tanzania. I want to share more on Engineering staffs, and lots of interesting stuffs, and be an open book on my years at work in the tourist destinations: Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda.

Sometimes I dip my toe in the geopolitics of outlier-Ethiopia

Yoseph Hadden. Hadden, my nickname

In the year 2000 I was a freshman in Addis Abeba University; my room mate Haileyesus Genet called me after the mysterious and secretive billionaire industrialist S. R. Hadden, in the the movie Contact.
Contact is a 1997 American science fiction drama film. S.R. Hadden is the coolest character ever!
