From Windhoek to Livingstone — across Namibia, through the Caprivi Strip, into Botswana, and finally Zambia.

A long journey on an Intercape double-decker, crossing 4 border posts, switching to a shuttle in Katima, and even passing through Chobe National Park where a group of elephants crossed the road right in front of us 🐘

After everything that happened in Windhoek, this trip felt different. Losing my phone and all my photos still hurts — but I’m grateful I made it safely.

Now it’s time to slow down, rest, and get things sorted again.

Long ride, wild borders, and finally some rest ☕🧁

From Windhoek across Namibia, through the Caprivi Strip, into Botswana (even elephants crossing the road 🐘), and finally Zambia — 4 border posts later.

After losing my phone and all photos in the robbery, this journey hits different. Just grateful to have made it.

A quiet day on the Darling River at May's Bend, Bourke, NSW, Australia.

Two of our three dogs recharging in the sun. The third is at our feet having a snooze.

Out of here tomorrow, heading north.

Robbed on the day I arrived in Windhoek.

This is the hardest moment of my journey so far.

🎥 Google surprised me with a short video made from my photos over the past years. It shows this day in previous years of my travels.

This month marks 9 years of traveling for me. Back in 2022 I could never imagine I’d still be on the road — and now here I am.

Waiting for rain in Moshi… nothing happened. I went to the ATM, and when I came out the sky opened. This short video shows part of the 20-minute tropical downpour on my walk to the supermarket.

A small snack in between — but now I’m thinking about getting a coffee in the mall ☕️
