خلفية ثقافية

It is common to say 'Gibu' (Enter!) multiple times to a guest as a sign of warm hospitality. Just saying it once can seem cold. Due to traffic, 'ወደ ቤት መግባት' is a major topic of conversation. People often discuss how many hours it took them to 'enter home'. Entering a house often involves a blessing or a greeting to the 'Goje' (hut) or the family spirits in older traditions. For Ethiopians living abroad, 'ወደ ቤት መግባት' often refers to the emotional journey of returning to Ethiopia for a visit.
