This is a story of a journey in the life of a gentleman from being a shepherd to a competent diplomat assigned to Ethiopian Embassy in London, UK. During his time in his post, he met several British diplomats working in the Foreign Office, Home Office and Department for International Development. More importantly, he had those rare opportunities to meet and talk to Her Majesty, the late Queen Elizabeth II.The story also extensively illustrates the diplomatic resentfulness, disputes and underground riots by African diplomats with the host country, Ethiopia during the late Prime Minister Meles Zenawi time. It also touches in some detail in connection with the national protocol in the welcoming and seeing off ceremonies of Prime Minister Meles and the accreditation of foreign new ambassadors with the late President Dr Negasso Gidada at the National Palace.It narrates how the challenges and experiences in his early childhood life shaped his future life in a family of twelve children in a small town, Butajira, Ethiopia. Moreover, it continues narrating his strong attachment to the chains of mountains called ZEBIDAR whilst living in London and his disappointments that children in Ethiopia are not learning about it as it was not included in the Ethiopian’s National Curricula. To this effect, he figuratively and imaginatively incited the ZEBIDAR Chains of Mountains to mobilise an international mountains mob to the success of getting recognition and being included in the education system, It continues to explain how he was joyful and thrilled with his own immediate family (wife and two amazing daughters) and discloses some family secrets and shared beautiful memories of the family without hiding the most challenging storms and tough times in their family life so that others could learn from them. His life’s journey in the search for the right wife was long and difficult. Nonetheless, did he find one or is he still in the search?
