Flat Dogs & Himba Kaokoland Nile Crocodile
The land itself, with its towering mountains and arid plains, presents a starkness that captivates the soul. The palette of colors, from the fiery red sands to the azure skies, creates a landscape that feels almost surreal.
The Himba kraal, like a portal into another world is a symbol of resilience. It’s a place where life continues in harmony with nature, where each day is a testament to the age-old dance between survival and tradition.
We stop to commune with the Himba
The interaction that unfolds is one of warmth and genuine friendliness. The Himba graciously accept our offerings, and in return, they share with us the wisdom of their centuries-old culture.
It’s a moment of cultural exchange that transcends language barriers, and a reminder of our shared humanity.
In this remote corner of the world, the contrast between our modern, fast-paced existence and the timeless traditions of the Himba is stark. Here, amid the age-old rituals and the simplicity of daily life, we glimpse a world that exists in harmony with the land and its natural rhythms.

As we part ways with the Himba, the memory of this meeting lingers-
The encounter with the Himba serves as a poignant reflection on the pace of our modern world
It underscores the value of preserving and honoring the traditions and wisdom of ancient cultures, even as we embrace the conveniences of our time.
It took us two arduous days on tracks and brutal corrugated dusty roads on the D3703 traversing some the remotest corners of Namibia.
We arrive in Opuwo and we experience the rush of civilization wash over us. Here your money can buy you an ice cold beverage. Now thats luxury for a camping snob.
