This year, the year of 2016, has been a year full of traveling for us. We have been to a total of fifteen countries during the past twelve months and there have been so many amazing places that we have had the opportunity to see. So which are our top 20 […]

We recently visited this Southern African country and did spend quite a few days on its roads. It was the first time for me driving outside the Northern European countries and consequently, it was also the first time for me driving on the “wrong” side of the road. It really […]
It is now quite some time since we got back home from our trip to Southern Africa. Although reality and normal life are getting the best of us, we can look back at the memories. We enjoyed an amazing trip that included stops in 3 different countries – Qatar, Namibia, […]
All good things must come to an end and our final full day in Namibia eventually arrived. Now it was time to figure out how to spend a day in Windhoek? We decided to make life as simple as possible and drove to the city center for some sightseeing. The […]
On our way back to Windhoek after our stay in Otjiwarongo, we first stopped in Omaruru and later on in Karibib. You can read more about these places in our previous blog post. After a very short stop in Karibib, we continued onward toward Windhoek, but we did decide to make […]

We did not know what to expect that morning at Arebbusch Guest Lodge after our first night in Namibia. It was time to head north. It was especially time to start discovering what Namibia had to offer. The stop for the coming three nights was Otjiwarongo, 250 kilometers north of […]
In the previous post about our trip to the southern countries of the African continent, we were about to leave Johannesburg. It was time to catch a flight to the capital of Namibia, Windhoek. This is how you pronounce it in case you want to know: /ˈvɪnt.hʊk/ Flying to Namibia There […]
We are almost done with planning our next great adventure. This is one trip that we are really excited about. We have heard so many great things about these three countries that we plan to visit and we will probably not have time to see more than a small portion […]
