    Namibia Unfiltered – A Self-Drive Road Trip Through Africa’s Vastness

    Feel the Space. Embrace the Freedom.

    Welcome to our collection of personal Namibia travel stories.
    In May and June 2025, we spent three weeks on the road through Namibia – driving ourselves, full of anticipation, open to everything that came our way.

    This page gives you our trip in daily stages:
    Each day is a blog post – honest, personal, and full of photos, emotions, and practical tips.


    Why “Namibia Unfiltered”?

    • Because that’s how we experienced the country:
    • Raw, intense, vast, and full of contrasts.
    • We didn’t want a pre-planned safari. We wanted to discover Namibia independently – and that’s exactly what you’ll find here.
    • Our journey took us to:
    • red sand dunes in the Namib Desert
    • wild animals in Etosha National Park
    • moving encounters with local people
    • endless gravel roads, stunning sunsets, and moments of awe

    Whether you’re planning your own Namibia self-drive adventure or just curious about Africa’s wide open spaces, you’ll find inspiration and honest insight here.
