The Rashaida tribe came to Eritrea from Saudi Arabia about 200 years ago, they live in the desert along the coastline of the Red Sea, are muslim, and their homeland extends from Massawa, Eritrea, to Port Sudan, Sudan; they are nomadic, the men are excellent camel traders and some even go to Emirates to take care of the rich people's animals; Rashaida women always wear veils to cover their nose and their mouth, but not the hair, Rashaida live in isolated communities, preferring not to live with people of other tribes, in Eritrea, they are seen as "gypsies", with very bad reputation, they are the only ones to avoid the army time
Une jeune fille de la tribu des rashaida en Erythrée.Isolés dans le desert, ils ne croisent pas souvent des touristes,mais il est surprenant de voir la manière qu'ils ont de fixer l'objectif lorsqu'on les prend en photo...Les Rahaidas sont plutot mal vus par les eritréens qui les considèrent un peu comme des gitans.Le contact avec eux est difficile, mais quelques polaroids detendent vite l'atmosphere!

Papu tribesman call "the human flies". All the men wear black costum and run shouting crazy sounds..They have a make up made of black mud, which make them very impressive to watch... It's funny to see them without any color on them while other tribes are ambulant rainbows!
