Just to give you some background before I kick off ... as a group of friends we have travelled Southern Africa quite extensively over the past 5 years visiting Namibia on a couple of occasions as well as Botswana, Zimbabwe, Malawi, Mozambique and Lesotho.
On this particular trip we would only be 1 vehicle with 2 occupants ... Jackal and myself (wanchop) were planning to rough it like never before ☺The goal when initially planning for this trip was to see the Kaokoveld as that was the only part of the country we had not yet visited, the other main reason for wanting to go
