Accommodations

In keeping with the style and philosophy of the seminar, while in Windhoek you will stay at the Center for Global Education and Experience’s guesthouse/study center or another local guesthouse. Rooms will be semi-dormitory style with shared bathrooms. In other parts of Namibia, you will stay at a modest guesthouse or church-run retreat center where rooms are semi-dormitory style with shared bathrooms. Some travel seminars may include a homestay to introduce you to family life in Namibia. During a homestay, you may not always have access to hot water or standard mattresses. We are confident that this unique opportunity will enhance your understanding of the region in a challenging, experiential manner.

Electrical Current

The electrical current is 220/240V, the same as in Europe, but different from the U.S. and Canada. The plugs have three rounded prongs. For most U.S. appliances you will need a voltage converter unless the appliance already has a built-in switch to change the voltage AND an adapter for the plug. If you have a Continental or U.S. adapter you may find that it won't work. One solution is to buy a plug that will fit between your appliance and the adapter once you arrive in Namibia, although it is best that you do without appliances if possible.
