Workation in Addis Ababa: the essentials

At 2,355 metres, Addis Ababa is the highest capital in Africa, and the thin air takes a few days to get used to. Menelik II founded it in the 1880s around hot springs, and it has grown to more than six million people, the seat of the African Union and the hub of Ethiopian Airlines, with Bole airport only about 6 km from the centre. The National Museum holds the Lucy skeleton, Merkato is one of the continent's largest markets, and coffee ceremonies are part of everyday life. Some coworking exists. Traffic is heavy, the main rains fall from June to September, and armed conflict in parts of Ethiopia makes current travel advice essential reading.
