If you have been following along with this blog from the start, you likely have a good idea what my life entails these days. I work at school during the week, basically living like a teacher in the U.S. and on the weekends I tend to leave the village and head to town to get food and hang out with friends. Pretty boring, right? Don’t get me wrong, I still wake up most days knowing that something crazy will ensue before the sun sets, but truth be told not much surprises me these days. After living in Namibia for awhile, I have finally gotten used to some of the (from an American point of view) odd events that occur in my life and what seemed so strange when I hopped off that plane way back in August of last year are really not so weird anymore. Things that I’ve written about once (riding for hours in the back of a pickup truck or cab of an 18-wheeler for free, wading through waist-deep water, eating random bugs or body parts) occur quite often and are really just parts of life here in Namibia. With that said I have decided to flip the script on my blog posts and no longer offer lengthy descriptions of what has happened in my life and focus the entries exclusively on some the elements of life in Namibia that make it unique. Unless something really ridiculous happens, future posts will only be about life in Namibia and not about me. And these posts will be shhhhoorrrrt… Hopefully that’ll encourage me to write more frequently.
I really have no clue how I let nearly a month go by without posting. Time really does fly…
Now, what makes Namibia special??
