After my first trip to Africa, I wanted to see more of that continent. By coincidence, Willis's Walkabouts organised a walking trip in Namibia and South Africa for the first time this year. In addition, I had some extra time and money due to the close-down of the office of Ericsson in Enschede, where I had been employed. The social plan allowed me to undertake this trip.
Below is the itinerary, and after that a financial overview.
