searing pans of Etosha, the lunar landscape of Damaraland and the desolation of Skeleton Coast. Namibia is truly a

place of solitude and silence, vast spaces, great destinations and friendly people.

The Namibian landscape consists generally of five geographical areas, each with characteristic a biotic conditions and vegetation with some variation within and overlap between them. These areas include the Central Plateau, the Namib Desert, the Escarpment, the Bushveld, and the Kalahari Desert. Although the climate is generally extremely dry, there are a few exceptions. The cold, north-flowing Benguela current of the Atlantic Ocean accounts for some of the low precipitation.

Namibia is a vast land with its more than 6000 feet high central bush, its Namib desert – stretching along the Atlantic ocean of the South – with its dunes of 900 feet, which are the highest in the world. Its large National Parks, the Namib Naukluft and the  Etosha , dominates Etosha Pan and the  Fish River Canyon, the second largest canyon in the world.
Namibia's population of approx 1.9 million people includes at least 11 major ethnic groups. The Owambo tribe (650,000) make up the largest group and live mainly in the north. Other significant tribes include the Kavango, Herero, Himba, Damara, Nama, Basters and the San. The country still bears the influences of its German and Afrikaner colonizers.

The culture of the indigenous population reflects the social values, norms, traditions and institutions developed over a long period of time. Each ethnic group has its own distinct identity though certain features remain common to all such as the wealth of traditional arts, crafts, music and dance.
The official language of Namibia is English; however Afrikaans, German, Herero, Nama / Damara, Oshiwambo and Rukavango are widely spoken. The Literacy rate was estimated in 2003 at 84%. The Christian religion is practiced by up 80-90% of the population with at least 50% being Lutheran. 10-20% of the population practice indigenous beliefs.

Windhoek is Namibia's capital city and lies in the heart of the central plateau, surrounded by Khomas Mountains. It has a combination of innovative modern and old German colonial buildings. It is one of the cleanest, safest and most relaxed capital cities in Africa, and is a bustling cosmopolitan city with good hotels, sophisticated shops and trendy bistros. Despite Namibia's modern infrastructure, this young nation strives to retain its multi-ethnic tribal culture and is passionate to preserve and protect its natural environment.

Climate
The first 10 weeks still fall into the main summer rainfall season of the southern hemisphere. But due to Namibia's specific geographic location and prevailing climate conditions, rain mostly occurs sporadic, as short showers during late afternoon and night-time hours. Most of the days are sunny with bright blue skies. Summers without rain for weeks on end are not unusual either
From about mid-April, a brief autumn soon turns into winter that lasts for only 2-3 months.
The Southern African winter is characterized by low night-time & moderate day-time temperatures as well as extremely dry and cloudless, sunny weather conditions.

Towards the end of August, temperatures start rising again during a short spring season, and October usually marks the beginning of summer, with a warm to hot yet commonly still dry climate.

They say that all bugs in Africa bite...but the Safari bug is the worst of them all!
