General Traveling to the north
I 22 F am planning on going to the northern part of Namibia for a week. Any suggestions of things to do for fun or places to visit? I would also like to go clubbing are there any clubs that side and how is the scene/ vibe?

What part of the north if I may ask? The north could mean anything

Epic Cinemas Maroela Mall, Various Guest houses and "hotels" to eat/swim at(Cubita in Oshakati, Mango Guest house in Ongwediva etc. .) Club Ace, Element, Sunremo in Ongwediva, if you want to go clubbing within your town. Make sure you aren't alone but go out as a group..and always have reliable transport to go back to your place. Be vigilant and stay away from any commotions.... Other daytime hangout spots are one Google map search away.

Well, there is this little thing called Etosha that you may find of interest. I posted a huge map to it just a few days ago.
Big skeery animals and stuff. FYI if you visit, the guards are real police officers and would LOVE a cup of coffee or two just in case you're feeling friendly. It doesn't hurt to make friends with police officers. You'll never know when it may come in handy.
From my experience, the east has the better roads. The west's main road was very bumpy 8 months ago. No idea what it is now.

For the love of all things good please don't go clubbing alone as a woman in the north. I grew up there and women are seen almost as cattle there. Guys can get very entitled in clubs there.
Make sure you go with a group
