F.A.Q.

One quirky question and one practical question. Both asked and answered.

 

This is a fun fact with a bit of a twist! While hippos do sweat, it doesn’t turn pink. Their sweat actually acts like a natural sunscreen, and due to a reddish pigment in their skin, it can appear pinkish-red in certain light. This interesting quirk is present in both Malawi and Namibia, where hippos are found in specific regions.

 

While Namibia and Malawi are renowned for their incredible safaris, these hidden gems offer a treasure trove of unique experiences beyond the wildlife encounters:

  • Malawi’s Crystal-Clear Playground: Dive into the vibrant underwater world of Lake Malawi, a freshwater paradise teeming with colorful cichlid fish. Kayak amidst breathtaking scenery, or learn the traditional art of dugout canoe carving from local artisans.

Witness captivating traditional dances like the Gule Wamkulu in Malawi or interact with the semi-nomadic Himba tribe in Namibia, gaining a deeper appreciation for their unique way of life.
