Africa / Namibia

Crossing the Tropic of Capricorn

January 19, 2018

As we journey farther south through Namibia, we cross The Tropic of Capricorn, a latitude about 23 degrees south of and parallel to the equator, at which point the sun sits directly overhead at midday. Little more than an imaginary line signifying the boundary of the tropics, it’s not the line itself that’s cause for excitement, but rather the dramatic shift in setting that this distance brings. Leaving the cool coastal air of Swakopmund behind and travelling once more into the desert, we are met with a beautifully mountainous landscape that is completely unique from anything we’ve seen thus far in Namibia. The sand is packed full of scorpions and snakes; antelope, oryx, and zebra travel from faraway homes in search of water; and thousands of years of geology in action can be observed in the exposed layers of rock. Although the heat seems hardly subtropical, it’s good to be back among mother nature and completely hidden away from civilisation at our little oasis in the desert.

All the details: Tropic of Capricorn & Namib-Naukluft National Park

Cost: Enjoy a guided desert walk in Namib-Naukluft National Park for N$250 per person, learning about the unique landscape and native critters.

Getting there: Both the Tropic of Capricorn and Sossus on Foot are located in the Khomas region of central Namibia, right on the eastern border of Namib-Naukluft National Park. The only way to reach this area is by car (3.5 hours from Windhoek or 2.5 hours from Swakopmund), and the nearest airport is in Walvis Bay (2 hours).

Where to stay: Sossus on Foot Campground offers simple sites for N$120 per night, with access to clean facilities, a small pool, and a bar with cold drinks.

Top tip: Head to the watering hole after dark to watch nearly a hundred wild zebra jostling for a drink!

Waking up in my comfy dorm bed around 8am (have to get the most out of it before we are back in tents tonight and getting up at 5am every day), I enjoy a pretty leisurely pack-up of my things back into my locker on the truck. For breakfast, I have about half of my steak and garlic bread left from last night, and then a bunch of us walk over to the markets to do a bit of souvenir shopping. All I’ve really bought in the last 6 weeks was about a dozen beaded earrings in South Africa (oh, and a pair of beaded bracelets just outside Etosha, but I only because I wanted to take a photo of the beautiful Himba women selling them), so I’m hoping to find some good presents to bring back for friends.

When we arrive, there are only 2 other shoppers there, but the markets are overflowing with wood souvenirs like bowls, salad forks, and little boxes (we apparently can take wood back to Australia if it is properly varnished), stone animals, painted tapestries, woven baskets, bracelets, etc etc. It’s always hard to know in a new country and city how much haggling is appropriate, but I am pleased to find that I can get away with quite a lot. I buy three wooded bowls to take home as gifts, paying only N$150 when the asking price was N$900, and spend the rest of my time at the market trying to bargain over a painted tapestry of the Big 5, getting his price of N$750 down to N$190, although I swear I could have gotten lower with more time (in saying that, it’s always so easy to get caught up in the negotiations and forget that I am arguing over $1, which probably means a lot more to the stall owner than it does to me, so whatever, I am happy with the purchase).

Tess, Kerri, Nicole, Me, Kate, Di, Grace.

After our shopping, we hustle back to our accommodation, eat a quick sandwich lunch, and then hit the road for our 4.5 hour drive through the Tropic of Capricorn to the desert. On the bus, I do a quick catch up on my blog and then just end up napping as usual, enjoying the still-cool coastal air that likely won’t last long. Sure enough, it’s baking by the time we stop for a photo of the suddenly rocky landscape. The road has narrowed considerably and the truck is now travelling at about 10kph up the hills, plus I can tell from my ear pain that we must have been climbing for a while, so there is great relief when we finally find ourselves back on a more straight highway.

We stop for photos at the Tropic of Capricorn sign, trying to work out which way we would need to walk/swim to get all the way back to Australia, and then climb back into the truck for the remaining ride to our little desert camp. Once again, we are staying incredibly remotely, but I’m happy to sacrifice electricity and other conveniences for views like these. After setting up our camp, we all go for a swim in the bathtub-sized pool and then spend our evening playing cards until Kerri, who previously worked as a guide in Kruger National Park and currently works as a nature guide in Scotland, decides to lead us on a little desert walk. We have just over an hour before dinner, but we climb up a few of the hills to get a view of the mountains and Kerri points out a number of tracks and droppings for us. I can’t say that I’m disappointed not to see a tarantula (after Kerri identified one of the many holes in the ground as a spider hole), but I would have liked to see a scorpion or snake. Still, the frequent zebra and oryx tracks seem promising, so we all make plans to visit the watering hole (if you can call it that, because it’s the size of a sink) after dinner in the hopes of seeing some animals.

We all enjoy a tasty dinner of cottage pie (beef mince with veggies, mashed potatoes, cheese) and then go about our evening routines. I’m feeling incredibly tired, so I settle myself into bed around 9pm, but a large commotion eventually draws me out. There are about 30 zebra all trying to get some action from the puddle of a watering hole, so every few seconds there is a huge shuffling as zebras at the back try to push forward and the ones with their front hooves in the water try to keep the others out of the way. It’s way too dark for me to video, but it’s quite a hilarious watching them stomp and buck around. I will certainly miss waking up to the noise of zebras when I’m home..

  • BEST LAKES TO VISIT AT LAGUNAS DE MONTEBELLO 🇲🇽✨

Lagunas de Montebello is a gorgeous national park in southern Chiapas, right on the border with Guatemala— with 59 amazing lakes, how do you choose which to see?! 

🤩 CINCO LAGOS: interconnected series of lakes visible from a mirador (Tip: if you walk down to the lakes, you can hire a small boat to visit interesting natural features, including a cenote!)

🛶 LAGO POJOJ: one of the prettiest lakes, with abundant flowers & a small island in the middle, which you can visit by kayak or wooden raft!

🐎 LAGO MONTEBELLO: somewhat underwhelming lake from which it’s super easy to organise horse riding tours into the surrounding forest to see additional hidden lakes!

🏕 LAGO TZISCAO: large & very deep lake with plentiful camping & cabañas, and one of the only spots where you’re permitted to launch your own kayak/SUP!

🇬🇹 LAGO INTERNACIONAL: the international border between Mexico & Guatemala runs right through the middle of this little lake, and it’s even possible to walk across to Guatemala & explore a lively market! (Tip: Lago Internacional is just a short walk from Tziscao, so explore these together)

🎨 LAGUNAS DE COLORES: don’t miss these 5 lakes of varying colours (from bright green to deep blue) at the entrance to the national park!

  • WILD YAXCHILÁN 🌿🐒

The most incredible ruins in Chiapas, and some of the best I've seen in all of Mexico, are WAY out of the way— and that's exactly what makes them so spectacular. 

Driving hours into the jungle to the town of Frontera Corozal, you can hire a lancha (wooden boat) to take you 1hr up the Usumacinta River that divides Mexico and Guatemala, eventually delivering you to the base of the Yaxchilán ruins. 

Settled circa 350CE & at the height of its power from 600-800CE, Yaxchilán was once a massive urban centre and a dominant power in this region, largely thanks to its protected position right on the river’s curve that limited land access to the south side.

Feeling like Indiana Jones, scramble up stone steps & root-laden paths to see the impressive ruins excavated in the middle of this seemingly impenetrable swathe of trees & vines. The name Yaxchilán means ‘green stones’ in a local Mayan dialect, which seems apt for a city that almost appears to grow right out of the jungle itself.

Monkeys howl in the distance & munch on purple flowers by the fistful, completing the fantasy of being deep within the jungle, exploring something few eyes have seen. 

While Palenque is crawling with tourists, you can have Yaxchilán all to yourself 😍

  • Wild & wonderful Chiapas 🇲🇽✨

I fell in love with this beautiful Mexican state during my van trip around Mexico last year-- even 20 states later, it's one of my favourite places in the whole country, an incredible jungle paradise full of wildlife & so much natural beauty, not to mention the rich indigenous heritage & colourful traditions preserved here.

It's been such a treat to live in Chiapas for a few months & it's inspired me to go back through all my favourite parts of the state to finally share with you all! 

So, over the next couple weeks, I'm really excited to showcase some of the best waterfalls, most remote ruins, and unique experiences to enjoy in Chiapas. I hope it inspires your next trip to what is absolutely one of the most magical places in Mexico!

  • A love letter to San Cris 💛

I moved to southern Mexico 2 months ago— to a town that held a lot of specific pain for me— feeling just about as broken as I’ve ever felt & so far from myself that I feared I wouldn’t be able to find my way back. 

But somehow, I did.

Wandering these cobbled streets, reading in my sunny garden, dancing around the kitchen to loud music (& sometimes crying even louder), waking up in a place that’s become completely my own, I’ve felt things inside of me start to bloom again. Inspiration, creativity, passion, purpose.

I spent more time truly alone in the last couple months than I ever have, going days on end without anyone’s company but my own— and I’ve started to reconnect with myself, to sift through all the feelings that were too big & too messy to grapple with while I was rushing around the world, to unearth pieces of me that I buried over the years just trying to survive bad situations.

And I’ve learned to love those parts of me again. To find light in my shadows, peace in my pain, poetry in my rough edges.

I’m moving out of my apartment in a week and there’s part of me that’s honestly scared to start travelling again, to allow other people into my days & into my life after carefully curating such a peaceful & solitary existence here in San Cris. But I also know I’m not the same girl I was when I came here. And I can’t be only me when I’m with me.

I think it’s time to find my way back into the world again, into the chaos of new places & faces & challenges.

But I will always, always be grateful for the place that taught me how to breathe again, showed me a path back to myself, and reminded me that I am so much greater than the things that happened to me.

Te amo, San Cris 💛

  • LA CALAVERA CATRINA 💀👒💐

One of the best ways to get into Día de Muertos is to dress up in elaborate costumes— none more iconic than La Calavera Catrina, the elegant skull 💃🏻

The skull makeup so closely associated with Day of the Dead actually relates to a painting by Jose Guadalupe Posada more than a hundred years ago, later honoured (& largely popularised) in a mural by Diego Rivera. Depicting a well-dressed woman as a skeleton, the artwork was intended as a commentary on how death is the one common thread between the rich & poor, and regardless of material wealth, we are all skeletons in the end.

This is the most popular costume for Día de Muertos and you can find stalls all over the city centre painting a million creative versions of La Catrina-- I paid 150p ($8) for makeup + 100p ($5) for my marigold crown.

Another beautiful thing about this country— love & respect for its traditions are almost always enough to earn you an honorary seat at the table. Even foreigners are encouraged to dress up & paint their faces, often pulled close to celebrate with local families. It’s hard to remain a stranger in Mexico ❤️🇲🇽

BEST LAKES TO VISIT AT LAGUNAS DE MONTEBELLO 🇲🇽✨

Lagunas de Montebello is a gorgeous national park in southern Chiapas, right on the border with Guatemala— with 59 amazing lakes, how do you choose which to see?! 

🤩 CINCO LAGOS: interconnected series of lakes visible from a mirador (Tip: if you walk down to the lakes, you can hire a small boat to visit interesting natural features, including a cenote!)

🛶 LAGO POJOJ: one of the prettiest lakes, with abundant flowers & a small island in the middle, which you can visit by kayak or wooden raft!

🐎 LAGO MONTEBELLO: somewhat underwhelming lake from which it’s super easy to organise horse riding tours into the surrounding forest to see additional hidden lakes!

🏕 LAGO TZISCAO: large & very deep lake with plentiful camping & cabañas, and one of the only spots where you’re permitted to launch your own kayak/SUP!

🇬🇹 LAGO INTERNACIONAL: the international border between Mexico & Guatemala runs right through the middle of this little lake, and it’s even possible to walk across to Guatemala & explore a lively market! (Tip: Lago Internacional is just a short walk from Tziscao, so explore these together)

🎨 LAGUNAS DE COLORES: don’t miss these 5 lakes of varying colours (from bright green to deep blue) at the entrance to the national park!

WILD YAXCHILÁN 🌿🐒

The most incredible ruins in Chiapas, and some of the best I've seen in all of Mexico, are WAY out of the way— and that's exactly what makes them so spectacular. 

Driving hours into the jungle to the town of Frontera Corozal, you can hire a lancha (wooden boat) to take you 1hr up the Usumacinta River that divides Mexico and Guatemala, eventually delivering you to the base of the Yaxchilán ruins. 

Settled circa 350CE & at the height of its power from 600-800CE, Yaxchilán was once a massive urban centre and a dominant power in this region, largely thanks to its protected position right on the river’s curve that limited land access to the south side.

Feeling like Indiana Jones, scramble up stone steps & root-laden paths to see the impressive ruins excavated in the middle of this seemingly impenetrable swathe of trees & vines. The name Yaxchilán means ‘green stones’ in a local Mayan dialect, which seems apt for a city that almost appears to grow right out of the jungle itself.

Monkeys howl in the distance & munch on purple flowers by the fistful, completing the fantasy of being deep within the jungle, exploring something few eyes have seen. 

While Palenque is crawling with tourists, you can have Yaxchilán all to yourself 😍

Driving hours into the jungle to the town of Frontera Corozal, you can hire a lancha (wooden boat) to take you 1hr up the Usumacinta River that divides Mexico and Guatemala, eventually delivering you to the base of the Yaxchilán ruins. 

Settled circa 350CE & at the height of its power from 600-800CE, Yaxchilán was once a massive urban centre and a dominant power in this region, largely thanks to its protected position right on the river’s curve that limited land access to the south side.

Feeling like Indiana Jones, scramble up stone steps & root-laden paths to see the impressive ruins excavated in the middle of this seemingly impenetrable swathe of trees & vines. The name Yaxchilán means ‘green stones’ in a local Mayan dialect, which seems apt for a city that almost appears to grow right out of the jungle itself.

Monkeys howl in the distance & munch on purple flowers by the fistful, completing the fantasy of being deep within the jungle, exploring something few eyes have seen. 

While Palenque is crawling with tourists, you can have Yaxchilán all to yourself 😍

Wild & wonderful Chiapas 🇲🇽✨

I fell in love with this beautiful Mexican state during my van trip around Mexico last year-- even 20 states later, it's one of my favourite places in the whole country, an incredible jungle paradise full of wildlife & so much natural beauty, not to mention the rich indigenous heritage & colourful traditions preserved here.

It's been such a treat to live in Chiapas for a few months & it's inspired me to go back through all my favourite parts of the state to finally share with you all! 

So, over the next couple weeks, I'm really excited to showcase some of the best waterfalls, most remote ruins, and unique experiences to enjoy in Chiapas. I hope it inspires your next trip to what is absolutely one of the most magical places in Mexico!
