Writer Tess Paterson takes us on a road trip through a world of giant dunes, lunar landscapes, and extraordinary wildlife.
Words Tess Paterson
Vast and rugged, Namibia is not a destination to be rushed. From the parched northern Kunene region to the tidy fog-swept Eurocentricity of Swakopmund, it’s a rare blend of contrasts, true wilderness, and adventure.
Situated at the very centre of the country, Windhoek, Namibia’s capital city, is a sun-baked spot with a small-town feel. Surrounded by low mountains, the central business hub morphs rapidly into suburbia. A former German colony, modern Windhoek is suffused with the language and buildings of another time.
