Sheffield Paul

On my very first visit to Watma Hotel in the centre of Addis, the owner’s son introduces me to Paul. Paul is from the city of Sheffield – famed for its traditional industrial roots as a steel producer in the heart of England. He is in his late twenties and somewhat fat.

Two months ago he sold his house in the city, decided to splash the cash and paid a visit to his travel agent. He walked away with a return ticket to Ethiopia and quickly fallen in love with the place and its’ people..

He has explored a few parts of the country, come back to Addis, found himself a woman and just moved into her apartment. He called his father, told him of his new living arrangements and is at the point of being disowned and disinherited. He sits around at Watma’s drinking and eating and not sure what he is going to do.

Please send some quality advise i can offer in the comment’s box below.
