Why Did it Excite Me So Much To See a Kiwi The Other Day
A few days ago, we went to Moremi Game Reserve, the park closest to the Okavango Delta
In reality, it can be said that it is the Okavango.
While we were at the gate, we saw a car with several tourists stopping just as we were leaving.
I wanted to ask them how their visit had been, if they had seen many animals, and also about the condition of the road.
The rainy season has started around here, and Moremi is one of the first parks to feel it. It gets really muddy.
Impossible to drive.
Literally impossible.
The thing is, I noticed that one of the guys wasn’t wearing shoes. He was barefoot.
Barefoot on a safari. In the Okavango.
It was clear that he hadn’t read any articles about what to wear on a safari.
Someone who goes barefoot on a safari can only be one of three people: an Australian, a Kiwi (New Zealander), or a South African. And in that order.
The thing is, he had Maori-style tattoos. So, I leaned towards thinking he was from New Zealand.
And I couldn’t resist, so I asked him.
And I was right.
And I was thrilled to chat with him for a while. He was a nice guy and explained to us quite well how the road was.
I told him that New Zealand, along with Namibia, seemed to me to be one of the most beautiful countries in the world.
And he nodded. He knew he lived in one of the most spectacular countries.
So, now you know, if you still don’t have plans for your next trip, I recommend two: Namibia and New Zealand.
I can’t sell you a trip to New Zealand, but I can to Namibia.
The downside of New Zealand is that unless you want to ski, you have to go in the summer, that is, from December to March.
The good thing about Namibia is that you can go all year round. Of course, if you avoid the hottest months, you will be cooler, but you will pay more as it will be high season.
In any case, we offer more than 50 guaranteed trips to Namibia annually. Seven of them are already fully booked. Maximum seven people per trip
Namibia is becoming popular.
And rightly so.
Very rightly so.
P.S. If you don’t want to come to Namibia, at least go to New Zealand. But travel. Life is short.
