Hey Mark, I absolutely love your video, and how awesome is to see someone that's not originally from Ethiopia to take the time to introduce this amazing culture to the rest of the world. However, one thing should not go unmentioned. Ethiopia is the birth place of coffee. It was first discovered in Ethiopia. That's one of the reasons to why coffee is such a big deal in Ethio. much love: )
