Samburu tribe
Loyangalani, lago Turkana , Kenya del nord.
The term Samburu derives from "Samburr" which is a kind of bag used by members of the tribe.
The Samburu traditionally wear very large and colorful bracelets, earrings, anklets and necklaces, whose colors and size have a specific social meaning.
Around their necks, they also wear the keys of the strongbox, where they keep their most precious possessions.
This elderly woman has just had cataract surgery in Nairobi thanks to Australian doctors. We met her at Rose home, a dear friend of Mauro, in Loyangalani.
Many children came here, there are no so much tourist here (after 2020), and they were curios to interact with us!
Thanks to @mauro-debettio to have taken us to discover this world!

Incredible work! The first portrait is worldclass!!!
Thank you! That trip organized by photograper Mauro De Bettio (he is also on Hive) has been one of the best travel I have done, and I have learnt a lot. We visited Turkana tribes, a unique human experience also. In those place you need to have a good guide because of not all people are happy to be photographer.
Oh wow, that's interesting! I have to check his profile! Thanks for sharing your unique and stunning experiences with us! Always stoked seeing your work :))
Thank you! His profile is @mauro-debettio, as written also in the post. He organized this trip in Turkana lake every year, with a special sensibility to human relationship, and he takes also aid to those people. In Nairobi he manages Malaika association, to help young boys who live without home and in extreme poverty in Nairobi.
Hermano no te parece que usan demasiados accesorios..
you mean children? They don't wear accesorios, only women after reaching a specific age.
De igual forma se ven muy hermosos con sus collares y aretes.

Yes! Each tribe has particular rules and unicity!
wonderful photography perfect details about the beadwork necklaces.
Portrait photograph is exquisite!
Beads have meaning in position, tribe, family along with a variety other reasons, next time in the region something to learn from each is families tradition.
Thank you! Yes! Very different meaning, each colors, each shape has a different meaning in social status!
Always enjoyed learning the meaning in the beading, ladies look so elegant when in traditional attire.

Fascinating glimpses into the vibrant culture of the Samburu tribe and the transformative effects of cataract surgery on an elderly woman in Kenya are astounding.
fantastic photos i love their jewelry.
The first photo is incredible! As a medical student, I am very happy to see the actions that many doctors do around the world. I really think you can see that change in his eyes. A very admirable job 👏🏻
Thank you! Andthank you to all doctors who really help people in need!
