In 2019 I returned to Kenya, after an absence of many years, to visit and learn about some of the ethnic groups / tribes in the north of the country. I spent time with the Samburu, the Rendille, the Turkana, the El Mollo and the Gabbra.
This morning was spent with the Rendille people, unlike their neighbours the Samburu, actually a Cushitic people, semi-nomadic pastoralists famous for their camels although they keep other animals also.
