Trip to Five Rand - A location in Okahandja

I felt uncomfortable taking pictures of my location, so some of the other volunteers and I made a trip to another location close by. It is lot like ours but a little poorer. It is called 5 rand because thats how much it used to cost to buy a plot of land there. About the equivalent of 50 us cents.

Pictures:

Where i will someday get my hair cut.


Trying to speak the language with one of the locals outside the shabeen (name for the informal bars in the locations).



Laughing at how bad i did.
Carrying the beverages.

Learning how to open bottles the way Namibians do. Noone uses bottle openers here.
