Travelogues Namibia

After 8 years, finally vacation in Namibia! The last vacation in this 'land of deserts' was spent in a camper 8 years ago. A sparsely populated country with more animals than...

Sunday, January 20, 2019 We have arrived in Namibia. The border crossing was once again very easy and fast. Even though it was Sunday, we had to stop at a supermarket right...

First of all, I want to clarify the expectations that the title of this entry may have created. No, we didn't go away, well sort of, but only for two nights. Despite being here...

On Monday, I was back at my school and, as often, spent the whole school day alone with my class because the teacher had to go to the doctor. The kids were, as almost always,...

Geschichte die noch gar nicht so alt ist

April 18th and 19th These are our last two days in the “bush.” We expected to see quite a few animals here, but due to the heavy rain, there are puddles everywhere, and the...

Reawakening an old experience, spending the night in a tent by the river in Africa again after almost 30 years, with a second night to come. Sleeping in a tent in the African...

Yesterday, we drove across the Etosha NP, along the pan of the same name. In the eastern part of the NP you can often see herds of countless ungulates crossing the landscape,...

How was it again "Goal compensates the way" I think something else but this version fits better. After breakfast, we left the foggy and cold Swakopmund. The goal was the Erongo...

Addendum to yesterday, in the evening a jackal stood in front of our accommodation, at the latest by then the balance of power was put into perspective. Today we got up very...

Tag 5, 01.01.23, Oranje River Rafting Day 3 Ein neues Jahr, keine Vorsätze, aber wie kann ein Jahr, ein Tag schöner beginnen als wieder mal mit dem Sonnenaufgang zu einem Hike...

The trip back to Naankuse was terrible🫠🫠 it was way too hot in the car and we had to drive to so many different places in Windhoek to drop people off at the airport/hotel,...

Wild Horses of Garub On the way from Lüderitz back inland, an inconspicuous brown sign on the tar road in the middle of nowhere points to a "Wild Horses View Point". This seems...

In Damaraland, we stayed 2 nights at the very simple, but unique Madisa Camp. There were comfortable beds in the large tents, but no electricity and an outdoor bathroom in the...

From the completely rainy Tsumeb I went to Spitzkoppe on Friday. A beautiful rock landscape that is always worth a visit! The Spitzkoppe itself is actually just one mountain of...

When the day begins with a smile

The journey continues with a small delay

Not as bad as it seems when you look at it with humor
