Hello everyone.. My name is Dave Yohannes. I was born and raised in the breathtaking Simien Mountains in northwestern Ethiopia, where I grew up at an altitude of over 4,000 meters. As a child, I was a shepherd, and those early years gave me a deep appreciation for nature, local culture, and simple living. Today, I live in Addis Ababa and work as a professional tour guide, leading travelers throughout Ethiopia. I also founded my own tour company, Simien Mountain Tours (www.simienmountaintours.com), which specializes in creating authentic travel experiences across the country. I joined Couchsurfing because I enjoy meeting people from different cultures, exchanging stories, and making genuine friendships. Whether you’re visiting Ethiopia for the first time or returning to explore more, I’d be happy to share local tips, recommend places to visit, or simply enjoy a coffee and conversation. If my schedule allows, I’d also be happy to host respectful travelers who appreciate cultural exchange and treat my home with kindness and respect. Looking forward to meeting amazing people from all over the world. Safe travels, and welcome to Ethiopia! Cheers 🥂

CURRENT MISSION Explorer, Helper, hard-worker ABOUT ME I have been working as a part time tour guide for various tour companies, an instructor in a small tourism college and a travel coordinator for one agency in Addis Ababa as a full time job since June, 2010. I am responsible for arranging travel for Tourists. And I do guiding them from the moment they are in-country till they depart for their home. Before this job, I used to be a teacher. After graduation in Geography from Addis Ababa University in 2003, I was assigned to be a teacher in one of the remote area of the country by the government. As I was born and raised in Addis Ababa, which is the capital and has a better infrastructure and services, traveling more than 1000Km from Addis to teach in an area where there is no electricity and clean water was such a challenge for me.I have learned two things from my first job. First, how to sustain ones life with a very difficult situation and second how I was ignorant about the different culture and history my country. The trip I had to my first work was a three day trip by bus and taught me more than what I got from my school! I taught for seven years in different parts of the country. Then I decided to go to school to study tourism. There, I got what my real soul is and for what purpose am created for! Graduated being top of my class with a gold medal , I am committed to help my country in the tourism sector. I went back to school when tour guiding business was slow down due to Covid 19 and the civil war in Ethiopia to do my Masters. In June 2024, I graduated with Masters Degree in Tourism and Hotel management. My goal was to have my own tour company and I did have my tour guiding and birth family search for adoptive children business. I am helping many adoptivees by searching and connecting them with their birth families. I also believe that Ethiopia is a must- to- see destination but the tourism business is at its infancy stage. I want to contribute my part to make Ethiopia one of the top tourism destination. PHILOSOPHY I am a passionate travel lover person. I set my goal to promote tourism as a whole and contribute my part for the growth and development of tourism in Ethiopia in particular.
