Every Day Masai

One of the really cool things about Tanzania is the Masai. The Masai are a people group who have taken modernization in stride, moving with it but keeping their identity. It is very common to see Masai men walking around urban Dar es Salaam, speaking the Masai language on their cell phones and dressed in their traditional red and blue plaid or stripes. Most of the guards who work around my home are Masai; I love to see the group of 8 or so striding up the hill, colors flowing, braids and jewelry shining in the sun . Masai guards are popular, because they're known as a fierce people group.
