dear classmates
when i saw these wonderful pictures on the blog i felt motivated to send you a short impression from my last summer holiday trip in namibia.it was my second time in namibia but i've never been in the northern part before.
I travelled from windhuk to the northern part of namibia with a 4 wheel drive car, something like a jeep! it was more than just a car, we could also sleep inside the car in a "roof tent" and the whole camping equipment was inside the car, that we were able to cook our own food. we were aware of not having fresh water, showers or toilets. but we knew that nothing would be a big problem or impossible for us, if we had a good organisation. at the beginning we bought a lot of fresh food and still water and put it on our fridge in the car.since then our car was our home...
i was astonished how different the northern and the southern part of namibia were. whereas the southern has the biggest sand dunes from all over the world, the northern is much more rude and you get a better chance to observe the animals. fortunately we saw the "big 5 "and took a lot of potographs.
during the night i felt quite safe in my roof tent and that was more than helpful because there were no fences and the wild animals came easily to our fireplace while we were asleep. 
one day we met a man called marius who live there since he was child. he offered us to visit some of "his friends". they werent friends as you and me because they still live in their old tradition. they called "himba". marius told us a lot about these people and how they live. after these day i felt privileged to saw something like that.
now i hope you will enojoy the photographs. ( thanks illya to put them on the blog)
kind regards
alexandra
