Security

What about crime?
Obviously it would not be the best idea to stroll around the centre or suburbs of Windhoek with the family jewels around your neck or an expensive camera slung carelessly over your shoulder. Similarly strangers should refrain from walking alone at night. In this respect Windhoek is no better and no worse than many European cities. On our farm however you can wander about freelyand safely and leave your astronomical equipment outside at all times as well (provided you take precautions against sunlight, heat and dust).

You can find further information about security abroad and the situation in paticular countries by visiting the website of the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
