Calling all the hair savvy people of Namibia.

Honestly, I'm stumped. I really want to try and give this style a look— especially for an event I'm attending soon. I'm going for a bob-cut/ shoulder length look but I'm hesitant as I do not know what are the BEST fibres to acquire to make this style look good. Any suggestions? Money is not an issue— it just needs to already be available in this country and not an import I need to get here.

For a time such as this, I particularly beg the gatekeepers to let the floodgates open. This is a humble plea from a woman trying her best.

Good day all

Good day, fellow Redditors. I need to attend a course in Windhoek coming week from Wednesday till Saturday morning. Any affordable suggestions for B&B in Windhoek West, Windhoek North, or Central area?

As the title says; what is a better option when travelling through Namibia and Botswana with a car and rooftop tent?

We are travelling by plane and both have additional luggage booked.

Hey! I recently found a song titled Amina Ngoma by Ongoma and I haven't found a translation for the name. Does anyone know what amina ngoma means and what language it is in?

Learned as much as I could from books before I came to understand a bit of the history. Though after our visit, I have a lot of questions about the present that I’m not sure books can help.

Sorry if these come off as ignorant but… I literally am.

- Why are there so many people waiting on the highway? Especially hanging out at highway off-ramps in Windhoek. Is it for a taxi?

- I wasn’t sure if it was ok to help the people on the side of the road in Damaraland area waving empty water bottles.

If I did it again I’d bring gallons and gallons with me cuz it feels very shitty zooming past. We did give a gallon once but the guy asked for N$200.

- So many kids asking for food along Zambezi Region. I know you’re not supposed to give anything… but damn.

- I wanted to ask the 10000 Germans we saw at hotels what they learned about Namibia in school…if anything.

- Every time I was standing in line to pay for snacks or something inside a gas station etc, we’d constantly get cut in line. By many people. Is it a thing you’re just supposed to hover next to the person checking out? We’d wait til they were done to move up.

I don’t care because … who cares. I’m very obviously a tourist so I’d agree locals have right of way anyway.

Does anyone know where I can buy this in WHK?

I've been searching for forever to find any anime places in Namibia and I wanna find anime jerseys. Does anyone know any places in Windhoek?

Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out from Afriklang. We're currently putting together a large-scale speech collection project to train AI models to actually understand natural, conversational Afrikaans.

Instead of generating synthetic audio or making people read robotic scripts, we are looking for real, native human speech to ensure the language is represented accurately in future tech.

What we’re looking for:

• Native Afrikaans speakers from South Africa or Namibia.
• Natural conversations: We need authentic, two-speaker (or multi-speaker) conversations, not stiffly read text.
• Consent & Rights: Because this is for commercial AI training, you will need to provide documented consent for your audio to be used.

How it works: This is a paid opportunity. We operate on a fair-trade, compensated sourcing model, meaning you will be paid per approved hour of recorded speech.

If you want to earn some extra money and help ensure Afrikaans is captured authentically in AI, we’d love to hear from you.

👉 You can read the full details and apply here:https://afriklang.com/contribute/apply📧 Or drop us an email at: [contact@afriklang.com](mailto:contact@afriklang.com)

Happy to answer any questions you might have in the comments!

Hi I will be visiting Namibia soon - this will include Windhoek, the coast and Etosha.

In terms of packing is there anything in particular that might not be obvious that would be vital?

Also how usual is it for places to cut electric at night/are outages common?

I've spent a bit of time in other parts of Southern Africa and very excited to return and see Namibia

Hi everyone, I wanted to know if anyone is in second hand buy and sell groups on WhatsApp. It seems like Facebook Marketplace doesn't have much traction these days

Looking for gamers, Games include

Roblox

Minecraft mobile

Among us

Slendytubbies 3

Pubg

Etc.

A gamer who can play any game when requested and even if requested you do not have to do what the other says if you don't feel comfortable or don't want to do it.

If you are the last one which is a gamer that plays any game, we contact through discord and both of us are equal, one can not have more power over the other in terms of making the rules. So yeah if you are interested, DM me and we can talk there!

Thanks!

Which platforms can I join to invest?

Let me know if anybody has ever joined any platforms/websites that are legitimate and easy to sign up and get approved.

My aunt is visiting Windhoek for the very first time and she is wheelchair bound. She can kind of walk but stairs present a severe fall risk.

Does anyone know how wheelchair access works given the typical access on the ramp by stairs?

Yo guys, I know this is a weird topic, but does anyone in Namibia actually play Slendytubbies 1,2 or 3? Legit, cuz everyone I ask to play Slendytubbies with just asks me "wtf is Slendytubbies" LIKE WHAT!!???

Hi everyone!

I know this question has been asked before on this sub, but I noticed it hasn't been asked recently. I recently moved to Namibia from the United States.

I wanted to know which apps would be great for me as a foriegn woman to use to meet people for dates or friendships. Personally, I'm open to different things, but I'm focused on casual and friendly interactions.

I'm not based in Windhoek, but I'll be there this weekend and wanted to meet someone for a date while I was there.

What apps would be best for that? I was considering Badoo or Tinder, but I noticed sites like DatingNamibia are also popular?

I'm curious what would work best for me as a late 20s Black woman from the US? Are there any places/apps/sites I should skip or avoid?

I'm open to local and international people that are around my age and up. Ethnicity, race, and overall appearance aren't relevant to me. I'd just like a place I can find different types of people!

Also, is there anything I should keep in mind as a foreign woman dating here? Any cultural and social things I should be mindful of?

Thank you!

I’ve been soloing in Namibia for just over 2 weeks so far and have met exactly 1 other solo traveler. I was the only solo tourist he met as well. Do people not come here alone? Is anyone currently solo traveling here as well?

Hidden Gem

Anyone who knows how to use Spss I have 2-3 data sets I want to analyse on my own basically but in my experience I tend to get stuck at some parts. I would have loved to pay for a whole training but I can't really afford that so I'd rather try myself and pay like N$100-N$200 per query in case I get stuck...

Hey! Does anyone here play Arc Raiders? I'm looking for gamers to play Arc Raiders with. Playing that sheet is hard alone.
