Days 6-9. Etosha National Park – Bushman land:

[This is an auto-post written prior to departure]

Leaving Namutoni just after first light and a hearty breakfast we head into Bushman land. Here we meet and work with the Bushman. These people will share with us their vast knowledge of the hunter/gatherer skills that have enabled them to live in this amazing landscape.

We will learn survival techniques to find food and water. We will be taught methods of snaring scrub hare and guinea fowl, extracting water from plants and the ground, and foraging for nature’s bounty with the Bushmen and women as our guides. Later we will join them around their campfire to listen to the haunting sounds of Bushman song, a sound you will remember and cherish forever. We will finish the week by going on a two day “Bush-walk” with the villagers, living off the land and sleeping under the stars in this amazing and captivating environment.
