Hi you all!
We’ve been quiet on the gram, but busy in real life with lots of happy travellers and we’ve travelled ourselves too for work (Namibia, Mozambique and South Africa which was a-ma-zing) and also to visit family & friends overseas in Europe and ticking off some bucketlist adventures on that side of the planet.

We moved our house and we moved our office and we are more than ready for this new busy year and share more with you soon about our life, work and passion down in Africa!

For Heritage Day, we wanted to share something with you that means a lot to us.

A couple of weeks ago, Sabine and Nini were invited to visit one of the Nourish Eco Villages and discover their foundation, whose goal is to grow resilient wildlife communities through engagement in conservation and sustainability.
They create sustainable development and solutions in the wildlife buffer zones (between the urban areas and the wildlife areas), and build skills in the communities in the education, enterprise and tourism fields through an eco-village model. The Nourish Eco Villages are places where skills are taught, food is shared, knowledge is spread, and wildlife and nature is cared for. There are smaller scale programs in the villages, specific to each community’s needs, and range from sewing workshop, to chicken farm, to computer lab, to school, to stray animals outreach, to permaculture, and so on.
We were invited to the opening of their latest addition, the Wildflower Centre, a safe place for women to learn about empowerment and self love, but also about their cycle and sustainable sanitary products.

Coming soon at Travel DTA, the possibility to visit a Nourish Eco Village, and donations to the Nourish Foundation!

Driving from Johannesburg to Cape Town? Graaff-Reinet is the ideal stop halfway through! Also known as the Gem of the Karoo, the town is rich in history and character. Couple it with a day or two in Camdeboo National Park for amazing scenery and wildlife encounters. The views of the Valley of Desolation will give you chills!

Did you know that Namibia has a complex linguistic environment, despite its population being quite low? During the apartheid, the official languages were German, English and Afrikaans, but after gaining independence only English remained. On top of that, the Bantu immigrants brought Oshiwambo in Namibia, which is now spoken by half of its people. Add to this the Khoekhoe, Here and Kwangali languages, which are also common across the country, while dozens of other Bantu and Khoisan languages are spoken by smaller percentages of the Namibian population.
Such diversity to be experienced while on a trip in Namibia!

Did you know that the Kalahari Desert is the second largest desert of Africa, right behind the Sahara?
Kalahari is derived from the Tswana word Kgala, meaning « the great thirst », or Kgalagadi, meaning « a waterless place ». But don’t worry, it doesn’t mean you’ll go thirsty! Kalahari sunsets are the best for sundowners 🥂

Have you ever heard of the Huab valley? It is a highly requested stop in our Namibian itineraries, known for its desert elephants, and we have the perfect accommodation for you. This lodge is like an oasis in the middle of the desert, with the « glamping » tents and the pool. We love the never ending views and the show of colors as the sun rises and sets. Also, if you’re interested in history, make sure you see the rock engravings and paintings.

Did you know that the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park was one of the first formally established peace parks in southern Africa? This 35 000 km² park links the Kruger National Park in South Africa, the Limpopo National Park in Mozambique, and the Gonarezhou National Park in Zimbabwe.
The larger Great Limpopo Transfrontier Conservation Area (TFCA), measuring almost 100 000 km², includes the Banhine and Zinave National Parks, the Massingir and Corumana areas and interlinking regions in Mozambique, and various privately and state-owned conservation areas in South Africa and Zimbabwe. The TFCA is bigger than Egypt and open for animals to roam freely, can you believe it? (Swipe to see the map!)

Did you know that South Africa’s Cape Winelands have around 560 wineries and 4 400 primary producers? The influence of nearby oceans means that summers have the advantage of offshore winds, giving credence to the saying: 'a vineyard that can see the sea, is a good vineyard’. Also, who doesn’t love a glass of wine with a sea view?

Today’s accommodation feature is Baobab Ridge Game Lodge in the Greater Kruger (South Africa).
The lodge lies within the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve (open to Kruger) and offers guests an up-market, comfortable, authentic and affordable wilderness experience. Family owned and run, the lodge is a home away from home and prides itself on its relaxed, family atmosphere, wide smiles and friendly, welcoming staff. Our favorite feature is definitely the pool and its beautiful deck, from which you can spot wildlife coming for a drink at the waterhole.
