What do I need to know before moving to Namibia?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Namibia, they said...

"Namibia is a beautiful country with a wide variety of landscapes and activities to explore. Expats should be aware that the official language is English, although many locals also speak Afrikaans and German. It is important to research the cost of living in Namibia before moving, as prices can vary significantly depending on the area. Expats should also be aware that Namibia is a very safe country, with low levels of crime and a strong police presence. Finally, it is important to remember that Namibia is a very hot country, with temperatures often reaching over 40 degrees Celsius in the summer months," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Namibia.
