Finally time for a trip again, this time a slightly different one than usual, no camping not really remote, but in a way on our bucket list for a while. More or less all of us know the Seychelles from the one or other advertisement campaign, and thinking about these […]

Back again from Namibia, exciting 2,5 weeks behind us, round about 3.500 kilometres driven, many of them in the Kaokoland under not the best track conditions. At the Jan Joubert Pass it took us nearly two hours for 30 kilometres, but lot of fun in a way. 🙂 Nice trip […]
Coming from the Western section of the national park to Okaukuejo is a bit of a shock. First of all there are too many people but it is also much trier already in the beginning of June than it should be. Good for us, as it forces the animals to […]

This is as remote as it gets, I would say. Marienfluss has been on the bucket list for a while already, but it is so far off all the normal tracks that it had to wait a while. The Jan Joubert Pass also know as Rooidrom Pass, the easier of […]
