Maasai: The lion killers

That was one of the first things that we heard when we headed out to the bush in Kenya. That we would be hanging out with the Maasai tribe for two weeks and the rite of passage that they have for their young men when they turn seventeen is that they go out, find a lion and then kill it with only a spear and it’s got to be an older one as well not a little young one.    Jamming all our stuff in the back of a pickup and then packing ourselves into a matatu (aka a small bus) we headed out from Kijabe. After riding along the bumpy rut filled roads, getting pulled over by the...

I am unsure of that spelling, but, I the internet is too slow to currently run a Google search confirming my chosen spelling, so, I will leave it spelled that way.

Just Dance: Kenya edition

Written on Jan 22nd. We had just arrived in the Masai tribe, the poorest people group group I have ever seen. Yet the moment made me turn to my teammate, Elly, and asked her to pinch me because I was sure I’d wake up any minute. We had arrived in the Masai tribe the night before and the pastor and leaders of the tribe told us that because we must be tired from travel and setting up tents that we wouldn’t have fellowship and be allowed to rest for the night (it was 11pm at this point). But from this point on, he declared there would be no more resting, and sure enough,...
