The Masai

Everyone knows the Maasai as shepherds and cattle breeders who celebrate the typical jumping competition as a welcome ritual.

Today we were able to visit a village of a Maasai tribe, where the people live as always without electricity, running water or other modern amenities.

As a European, it is unimaginable for seven people to live in an apartment of around 3 square meters, but for the Maasai it is normal. Just like polygamy for men, who are allowed to have up to 7 wives depending on their social status.

Each woman then needs one house.
