my my name is tony giles and i am totally blind and severely death in both ears. now were moving. i can feel the wind in my hair. i've spent the last 21 years travelling. i visited over 120 countries. every continent in the world, including antarctica. my mission is to visit every country in the world. i started off in december planning this recent trip and i decided to start in egypt because it is at the top of africa and work my way through several countries to get to ethiopia. 0k, i've got some fish.

now i'm feeding the birds. it is my passion, it is what i do, it is what makes me happy. it is the biggest challenge i can get. ijust want to be normal. i've got to be strong all the time. it is the only way i can travel. the only way i can cope. i have explored quite a bit of addis

andi i have explored quite a bit of addis and i think it is time to move on and i think it is time to move on and explore a bit more of this wonderful, fascinating country that is ethiopia. i really want to try to get to the rift valley and try to visit some of the lakes, get some of the nature and natural ambience. really get off the beaten track. we are going to the village, it is roughly two or three hours south of addis ababa. it is one of the fresh rift valley la kes. addis ababa. it is one of the fresh rift valley lakes. apparently it has lots of bi rd rift valley lakes. apparently it has lots of bird life and hippopotamus.

what is your name? my name is arlo. my what is your name? my name is arlo. my name is tony, i am from england. ican hear my name is tony, i am from england. i can hear something. a tractor? a helicopter? my motorbike. motorbike, yeah. the lakers this direction? yeah. the biggest problem for me is, i've got no direction, it is just an open field. there is nothing to follow. and the wind is giving me problems. we are trying to follow the sound of the cow and the wind is taking away from my hearing aids. this is one of the biggest problems for me when i'm travelling, is the wind. because if i can't follow

something on the ground, i've got to try to follow sounds. traffic, other noises. i've got the cow's tail! here he goes. managed to grab his tail, but it has decided to run off and dragged me with it. there are some local kids around, giving fish to the maribo store. i've got some fish, now i'm feeding the birds. one of the main reasons i come travelling is to get off the beaten track and get away from the tourist crowd, and this lake is idealfor me because it is peaceful, away from tourists, just locals, very natural. it is perfect.

from some of the research i had done about haile selassie and ethiopia and hearing about the rastafarian culture, it is this idea that haile selassie had designated a bit of land, so that former african slaves, descendants, could come back to africa. that sounded interesting so i thought i would head to a town called shush money —— shashamani, where it is a very rastafarian culture. lots of people out, very lively, very rural, traditional. i like it. hello, salaam! the driver andi like it. hello, salaam! the driver and i are now looking for my accommodation, a rastafarian run

lodge. alex, iam alex, i am alex. hello. welcome! justified, come on. while, you are small. like a lot of western european tourists who think a rastafarian culture, lifestyle, i have my sort of stereotypical idea of dreadlocks and just laying about listening to reggae all day. i didn't realise it was probably not all like that. i still have some. when i got there, i met alex and his wife, and a very quick leave day changed that whole perception that i had. welcome to our house, of ancient ethiopian people. while. i

became a roster man as a teenager, you know, when i saw bob, bob marley, darren france, iwas you know, when i saw bob, bob marley, darren france, i was so amazed. —— rasta man. you know? by his performance on stage. sure. he touched me, and changed my life. touched you inside, in the heart? yeah. i discovered who i was, you know? he gave me a sense of dignity. what is a real rasta man? a real rasta man is a faithful servant of the almighty, jah. someone who tries his best to live a righteous. jah is god, yeah? to love his next. his neighbour? to fulfil the love of god on earth? so it is not about smoking garage and listening to bob marley? iam nota garage and listening to bob marley? i am not a smoker, to tell you the truth. not all raster will smoke gunshot. you have rasta you don't

smoke. one of my biggest lobsters music. i have always loved music because i can connect with it. i don't need to see, i don't need to hear. i can connect with the rhythm. music is beautiful because it crosses all boundaries. it doesn't matter what skin colour, was disability. it doesn't matter. i said, i play drums. he said, i play drums. he started playing and i started following. we just sat there, the two of us, drumming, jamming. no woman, no cry. sharing energy and positive vibes and connecting. a really beautiful moment. that was awesome, amazing.

do you still feel excluded, at times? we have no rights. we are not ethiopian citizens. we are foreigners. but we decided to live permanently and forever in ethiopia. but we don't really get reconditioned after so many years. we just reconditioned after so many years. wejust got, the reconditioned after so many years. we just got, the other day, to stay legally, you know, forfive years. a lot of conditions. it is not so easy. to live as rasta people in ethiopia. so you are still considered as foreigners? yeah. we are now in a local tricycle. you have a favourite football team? i

like liverpool. mo salah. mo salah! yeah! cool. my my mum is pretty special. very special, amazing. she is the most important person in my life. she supports my travels. she encourages me, she helps me with my maps, she helps me research. i can do most things on the internet with a speech software. the one thing i cannot do is book flights. the websites are impossible for all our companies. so she can book flights for me. she is my rock that i stand on. she is the reason i can do this. without her, i would be nothing. we havejust

landed in lalibala, one of the major tourist cities in the north of the dob. -- tourist cities in the north of the dob. —— ethiopia. i knew that when i came to ethiopia, one of the places that i had to visit was lalibela. rock churches, you know what these mean to the people. i thought, i just had to come here. when i landed in lalibela airport it was a bit confusing. normally i have the assistance, take me through the airport. a guy who works van eyck took me through the airport outside, handed me onto another guide. at

first i thought he was a couch surfer. i started walking with him, he wasn't saying much. i started to get a little bit concerned. a couch surfer, yeah? and i started asking questions, like, are you my couch surfer? he took me to the bus and he said, get on. itake surfer? he took me to the bus and he said, get on. i take your luggage. yeah, that's fine. i was going to ask the bus driver to call the numberi ask the bus driver to call the number i had. and then abedi showed up. ok, welcome, tony. nice to see you, yes. it all got sort of cleared up. so it was a bit concerning. almost kidnapped, not quite. would have been a better story if i had been. we are almost nearby lalibela.

just minutes to arrive at my home. it is all rocky, really rocky. i like this, this is great. really steep. quite difficult to walk along. if this is what lalibela is all like, this is going to be great. 0k, all like, this is going to be great. ok, this is my house. the place i am staying tonight, for me, is perfect. it is as rough as you can get, as off the beaten track as you can get, as basic as you can get. it is real africa, for me. and it wakes up all my senses. ok, this is the toilet? yes. bit of a walk, if you get

caught short. it is nothing new for me. just a bit more difficult with the steps. i just me. just a bit more difficult with the steps. ijust got me. just a bit more difficult with the steps. i just got to me. just a bit more difficult with the steps. ijust got to be a bit slower and take my time. if i get stuck i just shout, slower and take my time. if i get stuck ijust shout, there are people around here, they will come and help me. it is not a problem for me. i can smell it! i love it. part of the adventure. i'm scoping me girlfriend —— skyping. adventure. i'm scoping me girlfriend -- skyping- happy adventure. i'm scoping me girlfriend —— skyping. happy birthday! day to you, happy birthday to you, day dialling, beautiful... happy birth day to you. i miss you. all right, be good. goodbye.

ifi if i want to visit places that are quite tricky i try and find a guide, a personal guide, to show me around. hello. i'm a local guide in lalibela. 0k. hello. i'm a local guide in lalibela. ok. today we will explore the church is for you. ok. -- churches. 11 churches. the church is divided into three groups. the first group there are six, the second there are four, and the third group there are four, and the third group there are four, and the third group there are only one churches. what year where they made in? sorry? how old are they? more than 1000 years old. the church is in front of me? it's pretty rough, big steps. the

guide was probably not guiding a blind person before, so they didn't tell me anything about the steps or the terrain or information until i started asking her. i don't think she could really understand me, and i couldn't understand her at all. this church is one of the biggest in ethiopia. the biggest. outside, inside, total 72 pillars. sorry? seven? yeah, 72. inside 38, total is 72. is it this way? yes. what does it look like? just one big door, a little bit of windows to get light on the priestess. do the windows have glass? no glass. just rock

windows. now where are we heading? we are heading inside. is this the entrance, yeah? yes. so we went in the first church and walked around a bit. i could hear chanting. tried to explain, but it was very difficult to understand her. these are the original rocks. so a column? yes, it's very cold. ok. very frustrated, a bit upset. i had to handle how to extricate myself without being rude and also getting another guy to

continue, i probably can't do this i myself —— a guide. the terrain was made pretty rough. —— terrain was. i just want to be normal. she is a nice person but, ah. i'm not very good expressing my emotions. i got to be strong all the time. it's the only way i can travel. it's the only way i can cope. i am guiding you 110w. way i can cope. i am guiding you now. ok. i will be way i can cope. i am guiding you now. ok. iwill be on way i can cope. i am guiding you now. ok. i will be on your left because the woman is on your right. we have one tiny step, and then keep forward. yes. another one, that is good. you can feel it either side if

you stretch your hands. we got a different guide organised and gently got out of the situation without offending the woman. i felt more confident with him, more secure, i got the information i wanted. it was all explained in great details, it was very personable —— he was, he give me what i needed. this is a moment for you to take a picture, tony. down there is a building in the shape of a cross, it's completely detached from the surrounding rock. on the inside there is a tunnel to get to the church. it's like a fortress, isn't it? exactly. you are steps forward, we are in the centre of the church. we are at the transept? exactly. are pa rt we are at the transept? exactly. are part of the structure, so it is

supporting itself. —— the pillars are, it is a very peaceful and calming space. lots of echo because of the shape, obviously. a big step. yeah. a few more steps and we will get there and we shall see the beautiful ceremony. ok. ready? ok. let's go. this morning i went to this amazing service that one of the rock churches in lalibela, it was almost like being transported back in time. keep coming. always hundreds of thousands of people around me, it's quite calming, quite emotional. i didn't expect to feel

that. the energy here is... quite overwhelming. the last thing we sort of did was light a candle, that is when it hit me really. very spiritual feeling just got to me and dilate the emotions go. —— i let. the people i've lost recently. i love you, brother. i love you, brother. just said goodbye to some people. not leaving them behind, i just sent them on their way, releasing all the pent—up grief, i guess. that was good. good, i'm

glad. i had the impression that i was ok and it was good. it's ok to let it go, ok to show weakness. it's been an awesome we, an emotional week, i visited some amazing places —— awesome week. i have grown, i have become a better person. i think we made a heck of a documentary, and i think it will show people that disabled people, a blind or deaf person can do incredible things. i realised that

there's nothing that can stop them from living their dreams. hello. the weekend isn't looking as wet as it's been, particularly in those areas which have had a soaking in the past week but there will still be some rain or showers around and the reason why low pressure is still close by towards the north—west of the british isles, around that we're seeing weather disturbances moving through, with either some rain at times, very least getting showers from west to east. still fairly unsettled this weekend. it won't be wet all weekend long. some sunshine occasionally, looking breezy this weekend.

still not particularly warm, though feeling a bit warmer than it has done for the past week. it looks like quite wet start to saturday morning in northern ireland after rain overnight. it peps up at the end of the night. some rain too towards western scotland, wales and western parts of england. this is that first weather disturbance coming our way, slowly moving eastwards, rain becoming more patchy, showery in nature but still one or two heavy showers. ahead of that, some sunny spells, maybe a shower, brightening up. the chance of catching a shower on a breezy saturday with temperatures close to 20 in the warmest parts of eastern england. most of us will fall a few degrees short of that. saturday evening, this first area of showers will push away. we could see more coming in towards south—west england and wales on through saturday evening and pushing a bit further northwards as we go through the night. clear spells too — the chilliest spots into single figures maybe towards mid single figures in one or two areas, certainly prolonged clear spells overnight and onto part two of the weekend, look familiar? deja vu. weather disturbances moving around the showers at times could be heavy and possibly thundery. we'll start off with a batch

of showers, close to northern england on sunday, especially north—west england. south—west scotland pushing northwards across scotland as the day goes on. sunshine, one or two showers elsewhere and the potential for some heavier downpours to come into northern ireland through the day, into parts of wales as well. still some sunshine occasionally, not everywhere will be wet. maybe not many showers at all towards east anglia. close to 20 in the warm spots. it looks like a similar picture on monday. showers in northern ireland and scotland. she rain and a few showers affecting parts of england and wales, south—east of that, it could be a bit warmer into the low 20s and for many, it will start to feel a bit warmer. monday to tuesday. right now, tuesday is looking mainly dry. so the story of next week's weather is something drier, a bit warmerfor a time at the start of the week. i think it looks like it turns wetter again around mid—week and it

starts to turn cooler once again as well.
