    Personal highlights

    1. El Molo: a small indigenous tribe in the north of Kenyainfo-icon, that is nearly extinct
    2. Lorian Island: riding in a fisherboat to the small island in Lake Turkana to visit the shrines
    3. Holy Shrines: they worship a single god at four shrines (weather, health, fertility, hunting)
    4. Religion: besides worshiping a tribal god (Waaq), they depend on Christian Missionaries
    5. Possessions: this remote people own nothing but some clothes and two solar lamps
