    Namibia is South Africa's Canada

    • @GoodVideos4
      @GoodVideos4 Před 5 lety +228

      In some ways Namibia is like Canada. For instance both are in the shadow of their more populous southern neighbours, in the shadow of big brother, and wanting their own cultural ways. (A difference is that South Africa ruled Namibia for 75 years.) Both have low populations for their large sizes. Both are regarded as deserts, which isn't true. Canada is regarded as a desert of ice and snow. That would not be true over all of Canada, and all year. Namibia is regarded as a desert of sand. But, that's just in the south and the coast. Both have controversial seal culling programs. Both have less social issues than their southern neighbours.

    • @GoodVideos4

    Being a South African kid born in the early 90's and essentially growing up in the 2000's, Namibia reminds me of the South Africa of that time, chilled, laid back, with tensions but everyone just getting along with each other and super friendly.
    Not like how crazy South Africa has gotten recently, along with all the new shiny buildings and development, came a spike in racism, chaos all over the place, crime, corruption, a dent in the economy, people have become cynical, angry, the place has become a hotspot for extremist propaganda, seriously these days you cannot be a proud South African without someone telling you why you shouldn't be one.
    I get some of the frustrations, but it gets too much.
    I need to go to Namibia.

      Much more racial harmony in Namibia, than in South Africa. Someone in Namibia said this about Namibia:
      We have much respect for whites... But they respect us too, We don't have real racists problems here, We are one nation... White, black and all others in Namibia call each other brothers and sisters...
      (One probably wouldn't think so, with some of the comments on this site.)

      Hey if your really saving for a trip over. Let me give some advice. If your headed to Windhoek stop by and try Joe's beer house that is located in the area Eros. It's the best bar and atmosphere. If your looking for a McDonald's at all your out of luck as there is no such thing. A good alternative is Steers though. If you want to go to a wilderness reserve. Etosha would have been my pick 6-7 years ago but it hasn't been keeped up that well. So try erinde it's closer to whindhoek as well. If your going to rent a car make sure it's 4X4 also the weekend markets in the town centre are a must hit. if you want to go camping I recommend the trip to the white lady lodge for a night and then just drive along the dry river bed and camp out on the river. Just be cautious of the wild elephants you might encounter. Namibia I also say is the safest African nation to walk at night but still be on gaurd a little bit. If your stoping over in South Africa make sure to use all your Namibian dollars in nam as even though you can use rand in Namibia you can't use the dollar in South Africa. Also stay safe on the roads.

    We do love our biltong. and meat is 90% of the diet and the occasional bread. fruits and vegetables are kind of expensive though because it is mostly imported. Lots of farms. Windoek is the area you want to go for the city life of namibia. go up north near the border and there is okavango river which has hotels/huts up and down the river, you can fish there. west of windoek on the coast is swakopmund where it’s a older slightly german inspired town. you can get some traditional german food there and enjoy the abundance of meat. Do visit.
