Through the ages explorers have inspired mankind with accounts of their travels. Those with an adventurous spirit who read about these journeys were enthralled and tempted to travel and experience far-off places for themselves. But alas, that was an impossible quest except for a fortunate few.
These days travel writers inspire their readers with words and with photographs of wondrous places. With the click of a button the most amazing images of practically any secret place in the world can be discovered by almost everyone without lifting as much as a finger. In today’s world exploring has become part of our lives as we travel on our smart phones. It allows us to dream and get lost in the reality of someone else’s experience.
The pandemic of the past two years has proven, however, that all the beautiful descriptions with the perfect set of adjectives and the most incredible images cannot replace the sense of place. The sense of sounds and smells and that unfathomable sense of wellbeing when you come to a place that you have dreamt of and the reality lives up to your expectations.
Namibia is such a place.
