While we were in Samburu we were able to visit a Samburu village to see the traditional ways of life of these people.

The Samburu live in huts made of sticks and roofed with cowdung		The young men spend most of their time playing games, singing, and bonding outside of the village
The women of the village gave us a traditional welcome dance		Some of our women were invited to join them in the dance
The Samburu do intricate beadwork		Children are very important
The Samburu are especially proud of their school, which educates their children in Samburu, Swahili,  and English		Clothing and other items with American markings are highly prized, even by the very young
