 No doubt: It is impossible to figure exactly what to bring. I have no doubt we will be able to obtain a lot of stuff while we are in Namibia. Never the less; it would be convenient to bring it along from the start, avoiding to be forced to drive into town. On the other hand; I would hate to be caring stuff around or even loos it in a airport, which I eventually never had any use for in the first place!

 This is in extreme contrast with the usual 2-3 kilos of luggage I normally bring for a month in a warm country. But this time we will be self containing, and camping and cooking gear is essential. Further more; the usual daily washing of cloths is not possible in the dessert. That causes for some spare T-shirts! 

 The lists below contains what I decided to bring from home. First stop in Namibia (besides from a ATM) should be cooking gas and alike, and a food store to get fresh fruit, dried and canned food and alike. The stuff marked with red was not necessarily after all.
