Elicana Alanana Tobico - A Professional Guide and Maasai Warrior Leader in his Tribe.

 

Elicana is a 27 year old young man that has been a Maasai Warrior since he was 16 years old. He has accomplished many tasks in his young life. He completed his formal secondary education training at the age of 20 in Arusha, Tanzania. During the past 11 years Elicana has invested his time and efforts in training all the young warriors in his village. This would account for approximately 500 young men in total. He teaches them the culture and trains them how to survive in the outdoors for weeks and months at a time.

 

He is a professional tracker and a guide throughout Tanzania and Kenya. He has climbed MT. Kilimanjaro numerous times in guiding small groups to the summit. During 2007, Elicana took his first plane trip flying from Arusha to Amsterdam and then on to New York City. He came to the United States in February and was in the country for one month, learning the culture through visiting the NYC Museum of Natural History and traveling to other cities, such as Philadelphia, where he visited the King Tut exhibition. One of the highlights of the trip was a visit to the Broadway Theater to see the famous Lion King Musical.

 

While visiting the United States Elicana was a guest speaker at 4 schools where he spoke about his culture and explained to the students the different stages of life as a Maasai Warrior. He spoke in front of groups of 24 - 800 and was able to reach a total of about 5,000 young men and women to share his lifelong experiences during his speaking tour.

 

Elicana is a very personable young man with experiences that will fill hours of conversation around a campfire after a long days journey of site seeing.
