What is this blog for?

Yes, I am lucky enough to realize one of my dream: doing a world-tour traveling Eastward, crossing about 20 countries during 7 months :-))
This blog tries to share part of this personal experience, through pictures, descriptions and thoughts. This is also to keep a track for me to remember later on ;)
Enjoy and do not hesitate to comment!

Spitzkoppe rocks

Spitzkoppe, is a group of bald granite peaks located 2h from Swakopmund in the Namib desert of Namibia. The granite is more than 700 million years old and the highest outcrop rises about 1784 meters above sea level. 
We start seeing these rounded rocks from far away, as clearly you can't miss them. 






Very nice with the sunset light, the scenery is again very different of everything I have seen so far.
We set up camp just down the rock... well, no infrastructure there, so we just rely on the truck. 

After a quick discovery of the San Bushmen paintings, dating 3 to 4,000 years ago, we have a great dinner and camp fire with guitar and stars, nice.
