Travel Planet - Boda en Londres (Wedding in London England)
Travel Planet - Bodas Masái, Kenia (Kenya Masai's Wedding )
Africa, with its many nations and tribes, is very rich in different wedding traditions. An old African proverb says, "A man without a wife is like a vase without flowers."
The Ndebele people live in South Africa and Zimbabwe. Mother-in-law of the Ndebele bride makes her a "jocolo". The Jocolo is a five-paneled, beaded goatskin apron. During ceremonies this apron is worn by all married women.
The Shona people live in Zimbabwe and southern Mozambique. Dowry or "roora" is a regular part of their weddings. It is paid to the bride's family as a sign of respect. The bride decides when she will go to her groom. She can arrive at night with her female cousins escorting her. She arrives during the day when she wants to surprise her future husband. She then wears white from head to toe. It is believed that by doing so nobody can see her.
As soon as members of groom's family notice her they start dancing and ululating. The groom's family begins preparations for a party. It takes some time, so the bride is encouraged to keep walking through the village. People are very happy as her arrival and giving birth to babies is going to enlarge their community.
The procession ends when the mother-in-law escorts the bride to her new home. There the bride gets presents and is being pleaded to remove her veil. It is a sign for the party to begin. Such parties last all through the night.
The Yoruba people live in Nigeria and some other parts of Western Africa. Out of Africa Yoruba communities exist in Brazil, the USA, Jamaica, Haiti etc. One of the ceremonies held at the Yoruba weddings is tasting. In this ceremony the bride and groom taste for example peppercorns for bitterness, honey for happiness and dried fish for nourishment.
Egyptian weddings are often arranged. At the engagement part a groom-to-be gives his bride-to-be a money known as Mahr. This money is used to buy jewelery called Shabka and furniture. The groom gives her a ring which she wears on her right hand. Before the wedding henna tattoos are applied on bride's feet and hands.
The wedding starts with the performance of Zaffa music which involves traditional bendir drums, bagpipes, horns etc. The wedding ceremony is performed in mosque or church.
At the wedding feast the happy couple sits on Kosha chairs raised on a platform. Kofta meatballs and rose water drink called Sharpat are just two delicacies served at the wedding meal. In Egypt women pinch the bride on her wedding day. It means good luck.
Father blesses his daughter
At the wedding ceremony held by the Masai (Maasai) nation of Kenya the father of the bride blesses her by spitting on her head and breasts. Then she leaves with her husband. While walking to her new home she never looks back as she believes that she will turn to stone.
Henna tattoos being applied
Swahilli nation of Kenya bathe bride in sandalwood oils and apply henna tattoos on her limbs. Somo or a woman elder instructs the bride how to satisfy her husband. The somo sometimes hides under the bed in case some unexpected problems appear.
Semi-nomadic Samburu nation lives in Kenya too. For the Samburu people presents prepared by groom (two goatskins, two copper earrings, a milk container, a sheep) are especially important.
Polygamous marriages are common in the Wodabee nation of Niger. Marriages called „coogal“ are arranged by parents during couple's infancy. There are also marriages as result of love. Such marriages are called „teegal“.
Groom's family offers a price to the bride's family. If it is excepted the bride and groom are married. A bride lives with her husband until her pregnancy. Then she returns to her mother's home, where she will remain for the next three to four years.
With the birth of a baby the woman becomes a boofeydo or "someone who has made an error." Being a boofeydo means that she can not see or speak with her husband. The husband can not express any interest in her or the baby.
After two to three years, the woman will be able to visit her husband, but not live with him. Finally, when the woman's mother buys everything that is needed for bride's home, she and the baby return to the husband.
Between 1000 and 1500 Karo (Kara) people live on the east banks of the Omo River in south Ethiopia. To enhance the beauty of the Karo bride her abdomen is tattooed with different symbols. The Karo man can have as many wives as he can afford. Usually he has two or three wives.Ver video "Travel Planet - Bodas Masái, Kenia (Kenya Masai's Wedding )"

At first becoming a stay at home Mom was a tad overwhelming especially since my little baby wasnt quite used to a routine yet. It took a couple of months to establish a mommy morning routine for myself and also a baby morning routine so that I knew what to expect so I could plan out my day in an organized fashion like I like! First we get up at 6-7am and she has her morning feed, then I make breakfast and get ready for the day while Doug watches her. Being able to put on my makeup and ually take a shower without being rushed is so important for maintaining me time! Then she goes down for her first nap of the day and I clean up the house. After that we go on a walk with the stroller and thats our mommy and baby morning routine!\r

22 Insane Traditions of Tribes Around The World
From The Red People to The Fiercest Wig here are 22 Insane Traditions of Tribes Around The World. Welcome to the Family!\r
\r
#16 - Crocodile Skin\r
The tribes that live in New Guinea undergo a process called crocodile scarification when a boy becomes a man. The majority of the boys body is cut in order to create patterns that resemble the skin of a crocodile. The process is very painful and can take months for the body to fully heal. \r
\r
#15 - The Red People\r
The members of the Himba tribe are known for covering their skin with a thick red cream made from local herbs and crushed rock. The cream is seen as attrive to other members of the tribe and it also keeps their skin safe from the blazing African sun. Himba women take a bath only once in their life, just before getting married. On bath night, they wash their hair with ash and must keep the same hairstyle for the remainder of their lives.\r
\r
\r
#14 - When You Get Old, You Die Alone\r
Eskimos hold an interesting tradition when it comes to taking care of their elderly. To prevent the older members of the community from being burdens on their families, they are sent off to die alone on a floating iceberg when they become a certain age. They see it as giving the elder a send off that leaves them their grace and dignity. \r
\r
#13 - The Fiercest Wig\r
Known as the fiercest and hariest tribe in the world, the Huli Wigmen spend the majority of their lives, making and pricing to make huge ornamented wigs. Boys are even sent to wig school as part of the initiation into manhood. The wigs are used to intimidate the enemies they fight against. \r
\r
\r
#12 - Bull Jumping to Become a Man\r
In the Hamer tribe of Ethiopia young boys prove their manhood by jumping onto the back of a bull, then jumping from the back of that bull to another bull and seeing how many he can jump across. They usually conduct this ritual in the nude. \r
\r
#11 - Welcome to the Family\r
If a couple wants to get married in the Banyankole tribe, the man must first sleep with the aunt of his soon-to-be bride. Another part of the tradition is that the aunt must then check to make sure her niece is a virgin. Only after both tests are passed will she give her blessing and the couple can get married. \r
\r
\r
#10 - Bigger is More Beautiful\r
Everyone in the Mauritania tribe believes that the bigger the woman, the more beautiful she is. Parents even send their daughters to “fat camps” where they are fed an average of 15,000 calories each day. Being larger in size makes you more desirable as a wife. \r
\r
#9 - Cutting It Close\r
The women of the Dani tribe choose to grieve in a very peculiar way. When a family member dies, the women in the family voluntarily cut off a segment of one of their fingers. They numb it by tying the section off with a string for about half an hour, and after the cut is made, they seal the wound with fire. \r
\r
\r
#8 - The Most Painful Bite in the World\r
As an initiation ritual, the Satere-Mawe tribe boys gather bullet ants from the jungle nearby. After being drugged with herbs from the Medicine Man, the bullet ants, which are said to have the most painful sting in the world, are sewn into a pair of woven gloves. After the drugs wear off, the ants become angry and aggressive. In order to become men, the boys must wear these gloves in ten-minute intervals until they have endured the pain 20 different times. \r
\r
\r
#7 - In Family They Rest\r
The burial traditions of the Yanomami tribe are more than strange. When a person of this tribe dies, the body is cremated, and the ashes are mixed into a soup that is drunk by the surviving members of their family. They believe that by ingesting the remains of their loved one, their spirit will live with them forever. \r
\r
\r
#6 - Blood Shed\r
Shiite Muslims are very vocal when it comes to their traditions, and the event of Ashura is certainly seen as insane by most standards. The day is observed in commemoration of the death of the grandson of the prophet Muhammad, Imam Hussein. In the 7th century battle in which he was slain, Hussein and his men were repeatedly struck on the head with knives and daggers. Shiite men replicate the event by flagellating themselves with daggers to the head. \r
\r
#5 - The Giraffe Necks\r
It is mainly the women of the Kayan tribes that you see with gold coils around their necks, even though sometimes they are worn by the men. There are different ideas and thoughts regarding the reason why they wear the coils, but the most common reason being a symbol of beauty. Many non-tribe members think that the gold coil stretches the neck were, in reality, it pushes down the clavicle and compresses the rib cage.Ver video "22 Insane Traditions of Tribes Around The World"

11. Dead Dunes\r
\r
10. The Pan House\r
\r
9. Banknote Building\r
\r
8. One Million Cent Pyramid\r
\r
7. Grutas Park\r
\r
6. Fort IX\r
Lithuania has certainly had a rough past, being both occupied by the Nazi during World War II and then by the brutal Soviets not long after. The lithuanians originally constructed a fort and was put to use at the beginning of world war I which which is still standing now. During World War II, after the Nazis occupied the area it was used as a holding ground for people of Jew ish descent and as stronghold against the soviets. It got nicknamed the “fort of death” for its brutal conditions and then, it was reused by the soviets! Once they had control of the area, it was reused as a prison and a holding ground for political prisoners. The place is now abandoned but with its rough past, it certainly has to be haunted.\r
\r
5. Monument to the Victims \r
Now you know the story of the creepy fort, you can begin to understand importance of this monument located just outside the fort near the city of Kaunas. Many graves of the people who lost their lives there went unmarked and no is too sure where they are. But this strange looking monument was erected to those perished under the deplorable conditions nonetheless. It was erected in 1984 by the remaining Jewish community of Kaunas. The Jewish community of this city town was hit pretty hard after the war and its still difficult to see much traces of them left in the country. This was designed by the sculptor Ambraziunas and stands about 105 feet high. Its hard to tell exly what the monument portrays. You can make out a few face but you can use your imagination on this one\r
\r
4. Grutas Park Bunker\r
We couldnt cover all the crazy places at the Grutas park before and this creepy bunker pretty much deserves its place on the list. This strange tourist attrion gets even weirder, when participants role play as political prisoners and are escorted into an old soviet bunker. The role playing prisoners are dressed up in gulag outfits and escorted downstair. We at least hope this is just roleplay! The soviet officers are wearing authentic gear as well and they try to put them through the psychological torment of whatd it be like to be a prisoner, sounds fun right?! This woman here is signing her make believe confession to crimes against the glorious union.\r
\r
3. Plokstine Missile Silo\r
With Lithuania being strategically located on the western part of the Soviet Union, this made a it an ideal location to place a few nuclear weapons. In 1959, they began to construct the Plokstine Missile Silo that would be capable of prically wiping London and a lot of Great Britain off the map. This is located in a forest near Plateliai Lake This would be able to store an R-12 nuclear missile, the same kind that was made famous during the cuban missile crisis. The site was shut down after the collapse of the soviet union and luckily it was never put to use. Locals restored the apocalyptic site so Tourists, can still walk through the creepy looking tunnels of the bunker.\r
\r
2. Vilnius Old Town\r
Instead of going through the hassle to build a machine to visit the medieval times, you can go back in time by seeing the largest best preserved old town in Northern Europe! It takes up over 70 streets and features 1487 medieval buildings in Vilnius. It features many architectural styles such gothic, baroque and medieval influences. This is where youll find some of their old defensive structures such as the Vilnius Castle Complex which was functioning from the 10th to the 18 century! You could spend all day here visiting well preserved historical monuments but dont forget to see the Gate of Dawn which served as the city gate into this unforgettable capital. \r
\r
1.Hill of Crosses\r
Located not far from the town of Siauliai in Northern Lithuania youll come across one of the countrys most well-known but somewhat strange landmark. It might look like an overcrowded cemetery but its not. The history behind this place dates back to the 14th century when crosses were brought here in order to express desire for Lithuanian Independence. Crosses were placed in honor of lost independence fighters and under the rule of the Soviet Union, it became a peaceful symbol of defiance against occupation. Theres believed to be over 100,000 crosses scattered on this sacred hill here all to remember those who fought until end for the independence of this unique nation!Ver video "12 Strange Places in Lithuania"
