Botswana, April 2019

After my experiences in Namibia, I drove off to Botswana. Still one of my favourite places when it comes to wildlife. This time I had CKGR (Central Kalahari Game Reserve) on the planning and of course I couldn’t pass Maun without visiting beautiful Khwai. In CKGR I would meet up with friends from Liechtenstein. We […]

Botswana, Khwai, Nov. 2018

After my long stay in Mana, it was time to head back direction Maun. My car would stay there for ‘stage two’, since there were a few things that turned out not that handy or could use some improvement. And in Maun lives one of the best guys to do that: Shane. I left on […]

Zimbabwe, Mana Pools, Nov. 2018

Time always flies by and it’s no different while you’re in the bush. After a resupply in Lusaka and a new stamp in my passport I was ready for another Mana-month! The heat, the dust, flat tyres: for me it’s definitely all worth it. There is simply no place like Mana. Last year I donated […]

Zimbabwe, Mana Pools, Oct. 2018

After the elephant relocation, the little canoe trip and our relaxed stay in the cutest lodge of Chirundu (that does exist!), we were totally ready for Mana. First trip with the new car, so also first time checking out the new way to transport firewood (and it worked like a charm). First time seeing everybody […]

Elephant release, Zimbabwe, Sept. 2018

Jens — Sun, 30 Sep 2018 17:30:49 +0000

So we left Botswana and after a night in Bulawayo, we were on our way to the Zambezi Valley. A long drive with a stopover in Chinnoyi and again we stayed with people who became friends. It feels good to be at home in so many places in the world. This time we had another […]

Okavango Delta, September 2018

Jens — Tue, 18 Sep 2018 01:48:10 +0000

The very first trip with a brand new car! Exciting!!! We started off in Windhoek and did the first packing and shopping over there while we stayed with lovely friends. Always a bit coming home… The next day we left direction Botswana and stayed in Thakadu Campsite (close to Ghanzi) where we slept the very […]

FAREWELL, August 2018

The end of an era. That’s probably a bit what this is. This summer I drove my car for the very last time to Zimbabwe to sell it to a friend of mine. It wasn’t until the end I suddenly realised I will actually going to miss this car. And since things like this make […]

Botswana, Zutshwa, April 2018

Jens — Thu, 29 Mar 2018 07:57:42 +0000

So this trip so far has been all Botswana. I started off in the Kalahari, went to Nxai Pan and the via Maun continued to Khwai in the Okavango Delta. Again via Maun I continued my way down to a place I’ve never been before. Almost a year ago we came from Matopos National Park […]

Botswana, Khwai, March 2018

Jens — Tue, 20 Mar 2018 12:31:45 +0000

After the Kalahari and Nxai Pan, with a little stop to resupply and pay friends a visit, I left for the Okavango Delta. One of the most pretty places on earth. Khwai, next to Moremi Game Reserve is one of the few places in the Delta where you can still drive around in your own […]

Botswana, Nxai Pan, March 2018

Jens — Thu, 15 Mar 2018 10:31:25 +0000

So, right after the Kalahari (you can read about that right here) I drove up to Nxai Pan. Not too much of a ride (in African terms) so I got there the same day. The sandy road from the gate to the pan, was not always easy to drive. You need to be focused and […]
