We’ve written before about the significant place that “the farm” is in the lives of many Namibians.
Well, we finally got to experience firsthand what is meant by spending a
weekend at the farm with my cute old lady colleague and her retired (full-time
farmer) husband. Meet Mr. and Mrs.
Thataone (pronounced: Ta-tow-nay)…
They were the perfect hosts, giving us a full tour around
the different camps and cattle posts…
... And providing us wonderful, meat-filled (chicken and lamb)
meals. It may have been the best bed
& breakfast (& lunch & dinner) we’ve been to yet!
Tellin’ ya, Namibians sure do know how to live! Check out the inside of their house… When farmers “go to the farm,” it’s like being home away from home. (On a side note, I feel like the interior décor of many Namibians homes is like the style I imagine grandma homes in the States being like! But probably more with more wild animal and religious things..)
