African Tribe Try HAWAIIAN CANDY for the first time! And some American and Danish Treats | Maasai

Aloha and Jambo! We traveled over 17,000 Kilometers from Hawaii to Kenya to visit the Maasai Village and hand out Hawaiian candy and some American and Danish Treats. The African Maasai Tribe has never had treats from Hawaii. They try Hawaiian, American, and Danish candy treats and snacks for the first time. Of course, I was curious to see their reaction. Are you? If so, make sure to stick around for the whole video.
First, Anelka from the Maasai Tribe explains who they are, then we participate in their ritual. I'm also taking you back to Oahu where I got the treats, and handing out the treats. Let's just say not everyone enjoyed the sweets, but overall, there were smiles all around. The Aloha and Masai Mara spirit was a duo for that day, and I hope it carries on through this video.

The Maasai people (especially Mother and Father) must be very special to you and Nhi. I kept thinking, oh man you guys should have brought hurricane popcorn and then towards the end you busted it out, ha ha. That would have been my favorite too but tell Nhi that I happen to like licorice.
