Social distancing - probably the most used and searched for words in 2020! There is no doubt that travel in general, will never be the same again. And there is much speculation about- how people will be travelling- when travellers start to emerge from their lockdowns.
I suspect, most of us are just itching to "get-away" again, but we will be re-thinking how and what, experiences, we would like to spend our money on, when we do start exploring again.
Personal Space, is at the forefront of everyone's mind, especially when planning your next trip. So I decided to do some research on some of the experiences in Namibia, where you don't have to share too much space with anyone else. Namibia is known for its wide-open spaces, and you are bound to find lots of space everywhere, but here are my chosen Beyond the Ordinary experiences, where you will truly escape the crowds.
Gondwana Desert Whisper Namib Pod is designed as a luxuriously special desert retreat for two.
There is something about this vast arid landscape, with views stretching forever and ever, that reminds us of how small we humans really are - in the big scheme of things. This getaway, ticks all the boxes, for that personal space and ultimate luxury, inspiring you with the "sounds of silence".
