Publisher's Summary

Ready for a life-altering adventure? This gripping memoir will take you on a thrilling ride through the heart of Ethiopia, where the author pushes his physical and mental limits. This incredibly-written work contains a myriad of adventures, from dangerous to inspirational, entertaining to informative, and fast-paced to serene.

Balarezo's vivid storytelling transports you to the rugged landscapes of Ethiopia, from bustling Addis Ababa to remote villages and the Danakil Depression—deemed 'hell on earth' since it has the world's highest average temperature.

Brimming with wit and humor, filled with introspection and insight and, above all, infused with a deep love for Ethiopia, "Unhinged in Ethiopia" celebrates the power of stepping outside your comfort zone. He's assaulted daily by stone-hurling children, crashes a wedding party, scales a cliff with Ethiopian Orthodox monks, and witnesses the miracles of Ethiopian spirituality alongside murderers, cancer patients, and the mentally ill. Encounters with warm and welcoming Ethiopians, their rich traditions, and the country's complex history will inspire you to plan your own life-changing adventure.

Perfect for fans of travelogues, memoirs, and stories of personal growth, this book is a must-listen for anyone yearning to break free from monotony and embark on a journey of self-discovery. Balarezo's honest and thought-provoking writing will stay with you long after you listen to the final chapter, motivating you to embrace the unknown and unlock your full potential.
