My trade is leatherwork. I opened my own shop in 1979 in Jimma and I'm still there most mornings.
I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I run most mornings.
Hearing from old faces is the best part of my week.

What gifts mean to Haile: Any gift will help me keep the workshop open for evening lessons.
