I never made it to the Skeleton Coast, but being out on the sand dunes in the middle of nowhere in the Namib desert was one of the most surreal things I've ever experienced. It felt like I was on Mars, except for the incredibly deep blue sky.
- armadsen 4y agoI'm lucky in that the family I married into is strongly connected to Namibia. My wife lived there when she was young, and her family goes back regularly, so I've been able to tag along with them. Getting introduced to that place -- somewhere I likely never would have known otherwise -- is one of the (many) things that makes me feel grateful for my life and my wife. Well, well worth a visit. Southern Africa has its problems like anywhere, but it's a really special place in the world.
