#tbt: friendship in the ethiopian countryside

That was such a great trip: a bunch of women from all different backgrounds and interests and passions and hometowns getting together to celebrate successes in a country on the other side of the planet, and learn how we can help create even more successes by using our talents to do so.

Sometimes it's nice to remember that this sort of thing is possible.

Incidentally, you should get to know these women. They're doing amazing things.
