We Took Our Food Delivery Man to a Real Maasai Village

0:00 This is Wakar and he's about as far out of his comfort zone as possible

0:03 because he's about to be the first Pakistani to ever enter this real Masai home.

0:08 But how do we get here?

0:08 Quick 30 second recap.

0:10 One week earlier, Stefan metwakar,

0:11 who's currently working as a Karim driver in Dubai

0:13 and has never been anywhere else besides Pakistan or the UAE,

0:16 but has always dreamed of seeing lions.

0:18 So, we decided to make that happen.

0:20 We booked him a flight straight to Kenya

0:21 and despite having everything working against us at the border,

0:24 run away.

0:25 They think I am running away from my country.

0:28 Stan got him through.

0:29 After a flight, a rest, another smaller flight, and a drive,

0:32 we ended up in the Masai in one of the most beautiful resorts to go on safari.

0:36 And the next day, Wakar's dream came true.

0:38 We made it.

0:40 How far we are?

0:44 But as we were in the Masai Mara,

0:46 we met a local Masai named Patrick who works as a walking tour guide.

0:49 And after having dinner with him and hearing about his life,

0:52 for the first time ever,

0:53 he offered to have us join him to his home that he and his family still live in.

0:56 So the next morning, we decided to surprise Wakar with the news

0:59 that we'd be visiting a real Masai home.

1:02 Patrick,

1:03 yes.

1:03 We asked you a question and you said yes.

1:05 But uh we haven't told Vakar actually.

1:07 Tommy, do you want to tell Vakar what's what's happening now?

1:09 What's going to happen right now?

1:11 We're just going for a walking safari.

1:13 That's what you think.

1:14 But on top of that, Patrick has graciously

1:16 invited us to see the Masai where he lives,

1:19 where his parents are.

1:19 Get an in-depth look into how they live.

1:22 Yeah, we should go.

1:23 Maybe try

1:25 we should go

1:26 maybe try some some food.

1:28 I like Pakistani food but I try.

1:32 Actually we don't have the Pakistan food.

1:34 What we have what?

1:37 So I think we just go and visit without eating anything.

1:42 Let's go.

1:43 Friendly walk.

1:44 It's a friendly walk with a big gun.

1:45 Yeah, it's a friendly walk unless lions come a little

1:48 too close in which case we send my car out,

1:51 you know, as a distraction.

1:52 If client come in front of us, I will go in front of her.

1:55 Oh, you said that?

1:57 Yeah.

1:56 Oh, perfect.

1:57 That's so kind hero.

1:59 We don't deserve what we need.

2:00 Exactly.

2:03 Beautiful flowers we have.

2:04 It's called black eye susan.

2:06 Sometime you found people chewing.

2:08 Why do they chew it?

2:08 They chew just fleshia.

2:11 Do I get the kick of it?

2:13 You want to test?

2:14 Do I get a kick?

2:16 No, don't test.

2:18 Just ignore him.

2:19 A plant like this one is very much special.

2:22 The massage people use as natural deodorant

2:25 and then they rub their bodies using.

2:27 So you like take this off.

2:30 Yeah.

2:31 Wow.

2:31 It's going.

2:32 So they have that for lipstick and doing it as well.

2:37 Yes.

2:37 Oh, look at that Pakistani cutie.

2:39 Which animal is this?

2:42 Antelope.

2:42 This not antelope.

2:43 This is the zebra.

2:43 You get it back.

2:45 Did you got it?

2:46 Yeah.

2:46 Hey,

2:48 Zeva track going that way.

2:53 2 hours old hour and a half like that.

3:02 Three species here.

3:03 Dick dick, the smallest antelope we have around.

3:05 This a buffalo and we have hyena.

3:07 How long time ago do you think these animals were here?

3:10 It's today maybe at six or almost seven because they're still fresh.

3:17 Maybe at 6 7 a.m.

3:19 they were here taking my wife.

3:24 I got to do that joke so many time.

3:36 Oh no.

3:38 Oh wow.

3:39 We're standing next to this is the first time we're doing that.

3:42 He's looking right at us.

3:43 I think I think he's smelled Swedish meatballs

3:48 and for the zebras is a common zebras.

3:53 They're quite friendly.

3:54 2 years ago there was a group of lion just chip

3:58 in to the property and actually they kill more than 14 zebras.

4:02 Nice.

4:02 So the nervous laughter over here.

4:07 What's the worst that could happen?

4:10 Yeah.

4:24 Suddenly, you know where the security guy used to.

4:26 All right.

4:27 So, here we are very much lucky.

4:29 There is a special bat called Narina Trogan.

4:32 It's not rarely to be seen.

4:35 It's the most beautiful bat we have around here.

4:37 Oh, I got a bit nervous.

4:38 I thought it was chicken.

4:40 I think there's a line or like something like this.

4:42 We just got like a horse.

4:45 I'll show you the I will try to mimic the butt to come.

4:48 Yeah, it's just a bird.

4:53 You could have been stopped at I see coming up to Patrick's family's cows here.

5:10 There's quite a lot of them.

5:11 The cow means a lot.

5:13 It means a lot actually.

5:14 Special gift from God.

5:16 We love it.

5:16 It's something that every Messiah must have a cow.

5:19 Mhm.

5:19 Without cows no life that's how we we we put it cow is highest up in the

5:26 yeah all the masai in Kenya they use cows in form

5:30 of dowry whenever you you get married first of all you need

5:33 to look for the cows that you send to where your wife

5:36 is coming from like mine I take 10 cows to my father-in-law 10 10 cows yeah

5:42 10 cows you must have been happy then

5:44 yeah very much happy actually that's why we have cows

5:46 just to solve dispute whenever we got coral with Mhm.

5:49 The elders come and sit down and say, "Patrick, you did wrong to Saiti.

5:53 Um, the only thing Sai can do to forgive you is to give Saiti a cow.

5:57 So, I can just give a small haver

5:59 like this one." And now become my great friend.

6:04 Yeah.

6:03 If I give him a ha like this one, I call him Entu.

6:08 Mhm.

6:07 Entu is a very special name given to someone.

6:10 You give him a cow.

6:12 It's amazing that you guys are so close like that.

6:14 Like it feels really genuine, pure.

6:16 I was thinking about my high school bullies.

6:18 We get inside the cows as we go home.

6:20 So, let's start from there.

6:22 Then we walk this way.

6:26 Take the sound.

6:33 So cute.

6:34 Yeah, the small ones.

6:35 So cute.

6:36 All the cows so friendly here.

6:38 Can like speak to them, whistle with them.

6:40 The whistling sound is a special sound that every time I'm at home,

6:45 I whisper that way and they recognize I'm the owner of these girls.

6:55 the best on the ship.

6:59 Yeah.

7:05 Free man.

7:13 We leave you alone for one minute and you just come back.

7:17 So actually me allowing you to come up to my cows

7:21 or my home is something special because we don't do that

7:25 for because you are my agement.

7:27 The first thing I ask you how old are you?

7:29 Someone say 33 like me.

7:31 So you're just my agement and our in my community agement means something.

7:39 We pray for God to give us cows,

7:41 give us children and for God to protect our age group.

7:45 That's wonderful.

7:45 So in that sense, everyone is included because everyone is praying

7:48 for because we pray for the entire world.

7:50 Beautiful.

7:52 Yeah.

7:51 Beautiful energy.

7:52 Beautiful philosophy.

7:54 Yeah.

7:54 Let's go, baby.

7:55 Let's go.

7:56 You got us in here.

7:58 Honestly, so so nice energy.

8:00 Like it's for you every day.

8:03 Yeah.

8:03 He needs it.

8:03 He needs it.

8:06 What?

8:07 Maybe it was so cute when you were carrying that sheep.

8:10 I love the baby's sheep.

8:12 You know,

8:12 the small one.

8:13 It's so cute.

8:15 if if they allow me, I will like go again and pick us, you know.

8:19 Yeah, that was very natural like we we were mid conversation.

8:22 Okay, so before we get to Patrick's home and house and meet his family,

8:25 a true traditional Masai family,

8:28 we would like to thank the one that's making

8:30 it possible for us to adventure deep in Kenya.

8:33 Better help.

8:33 As we traveled around the Masai Mara,

8:35 I couldn't help but feel touched by the closeness

8:37 as a community that the Masai were.

8:38 And honestly, it reminded me a lot of the closeness

8:40 that I feel for my family in my life.

8:42 I'm actually filming this in my aunt's home, who I'm visiting right now.

8:45 But for me, there was one key difference.

8:47 You see, even though I have loving friends and family,

8:49 one of the most irrational fears that I held on to for 15

8:52 years was that I would eventually end up alone in life.

8:55 It was always a fear in the back of my mind,

8:56 and it was something that was nagging at me,

8:58 even when I was around those that I loved.

9:00 So, I started seeing a therapist about it.

9:02 And after a few sessions of actually voicing

9:04 it out and expressing how this was feeling,

9:07 she pointed out all the flaws in my logic

9:09 to the point that I couldn't justify this fear anymore.

9:11 And suddenly for me, it completely disappeared.

9:13 Just voicing out this insecurity to a trained professional

9:16 who's heard it before and knows how to deal

9:18 with it got rid of this cloud that was hanging over my head for most of my life.

9:23 Which is why BetterHelp's mission

9:24 of making therapy readily available to everyone.
