In November 2019, I took a flight from Egypt to meet up with my boyfriend Mike in his second home, Namibia. Mike lived in Namibia for over a year about 5 years ago and hadn’t been back since. He’s got a niece and nephew there along with some of his best friends so Namibia was high on our “to visit”
If you follow me on Instagram, you'll know I recently got back from a two-month trip to Namibia. It was my second trip to the country this year, and my feed has been an explosion of desert landscapes, epic hot air balloon adventures, and ticking off some of Namibia's top attractions. And after doing a Namibia travel Q&A, I had an influx of people asking me two things: 'Please make all this information a Story highlight.' 'Hurry up and post your Namibia blog posts!' So here it is.

The Gearrannan Blackhouse Village should be added to your 2023 bucket list, at Isle of Lewis The Gearrannan Blackhouse Village is a quaint cluster of traditional stone crofts on the Isle of Lewis; a reminder of Hebridean heritage that is almost lost. The area has been settled since ancient times, but the village at Gearrannan dates to the 17th century.For decades, Highlanders and their livestock lived in these one-room abodes. The homes, with packed earth floors, drystone walls, and thatched roofs, provided shelter from the harsh North Atlantic weather. The space was kept warm by a fire in the middle hearth, and a partition divided the human occupants from their farm animals.Other crofts and blackhouses on the Isle of Lewis acquired running water and electricity between 1945 and 1965. People resided in these dwellings until the 1970s, when the last elderly people of the village moved into more modern homes. It appeared that the settlement would then be lost to time, crumbling and decaying until it was nothing more than a wreck.Today, the renovated blackhouses are available as holiday accommodation. Each building is named after the family that once lived there, and parts of the village serve as a museum that honours this bygone way of island life From @jakosty 29.
