Alamash is originally from Alitena, 155km north of Mekele, but the village was devastated during the conflict with Eritrea as people were forced to flee. Now there are few opportunities there.
“I want my pictures to show the world that given the opportunity – the people of Ethiopia can achieve great things”
Alamash has completed high school and lives independently in Mekele. She earns a small amount of money helping the sisters with domestic chores and, when she can, takes some money back to her parents, three sisters and her brother. She blogs as Almaz.
