  • Oktoberfest

    pure madness, visiting my first Bavarian Oktoberfest - in Windhoek, Namibia!

    Location: 

    Sean McBride, Windhoek, Namibia

    Duration: 

    Saturday, October 29, 2016

    Personal highlights

    1. Oktoberfest: traditional festivity imported from Munich, Bavaria
    2. Namibiainfo-icon: very weird clash of two cultures due to German colonies
    3. People: heavy built German and Dutch immigrants drinking lots of beer
    4. Competitions: beer lifting (female record: 17 glasses!) and wood sewing
    5. Couchsurfing: finding new friends online to have a fun afternoon / evening
