Each Coliving month we are repeating the same 3 weekend destinations. A trip to the desert, to the Etosha National Park and a trip to the Spitzkoppe mountain. These are the highlights of Namibia. If you were not able to go on one of the trips in your first month you have the chance to join in the next month again.

You easily order a “Lefa” via app, which is the Namibian “Uber” Brand. It is a safe transport option and used by all locals.

You can reach a coffee shop to work in just 5 minutes on foot. The same street has a lot of good restaurant options like Italian, Korean or Portuguese food. The next supermarket and Pharmacy is also 5 minutes by foot. The city center is within a 15-minute walking distance.

No specific vaccinations are mandatory for entering Namibia, but consulting your doctor is recommended.

Malaria is only present in the northern region. Windhoek and our weekend getaway locations are situated in malaria-free zones. If you do decide to travel further, you can easily get Malaria tablets in Windhoek during your stay.

Namibia is one of the safest – and cleanest – countries in Africa.

Like anywhere, you still need to take care of your valuables. We recommend not wearing valuable jewelry, and not leaving anything visible in the car. Besides these sensible guidelines, which apply for every big city, we know you’ll feel very comfortable on the streets of Windhoek.

For comparison, Namibia has just a ‘Level 1: Exercise Normal Precautions’ US travel advisory, lower than countries such as the UK or Germany which are ‘Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution’ due to terrorism threats. South Africa is also Level 2 due to crime and civil unrest, while Morocco is Level 2 due to the threat of terrorism.

Three key points that contribute to the safety in Namibia:

Low crime rates: Namibia is known for its lower crime rates compared to many neighboring countries, making it a safe destination for travelers and digital nomads.

Stable political climate: Namibia enjoys a stable democracy and government, which contributes to the overall safety and security within the country.

Well-developed tourism infrastructure: Namibia’s tourism industry offers well-maintained roads, accommodations, and national parks, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for visitors.

With all this in mind, our coliving property still has a perimeter wall, security gate and night watchman. Our coworking space has additional door security and private rooms have a lockbox – but please note, we cannot take responsibility for any of your belongings, you really must look after them yourselves.

Namibia is very extensive and it is not possible to see what it has to offer during a day trip. Therefore we recommend to book the self-drive weekend excursions of at least 3-4 days, or the longer christmas safari tour (14 days), after the december coliving ends. For day trips you could go for hikes on farms around Windhoek.

Windhoek offers the opportunity to visit cafes, restaurants, bars and clubs, but also fitness studios, museums, cinemas or shopping malls. Whether you enjoy karaoke evenings, bush drum courses, visiting the township, art exhibitions or handcraft markets – you will be able to keep yourself busy and entertained in Windhoek. If you want to go for a hike it is possible at several farms and lodges around Windhoek. You can go for a nice hike or drive with the mountain bike at “Farm Windhoek” or go for a hike and see giraffes and zebras close to you at the Lodge “Dan Viljoen”.

Namibians love meat! The meat in Namibia has a really good quality since animals like cows and antelopes roam on thousands of hectars of farm land. You can eat meat here without having a bad concious afterwards. What Namibians also love is to have BBQ’s! They BBQ almost every day. But they call it a Braai (Afrikaans). You can also try a lot of traditional food like the pap, stew, spinach and Mopane worms. If you are a foodie you will love Namibian cuisine. If you go to restaurants it is sometimes a bit rare to find a big variety of vegetarian meals since Namibians love their meat so much! But you will still be able to find some vegetarian dishes.

The airport is 30 – 40 minutes by car from Windhoek. We can help arrange a pre-booked taxi to collect you on arrival.

Windhoek has huge shopping malls with everything you need for clothes or groceries. In addition to the big shopping malls and groceries stores like Super Spar you will also find small local markets to buy fruits and vegetables. 

If you want to cover all the highlights of Namibia in one tour, we recommend at least 12- 14 days. If you have three weeks then we recommend combining the highlights including the Caprivi Strip and Victoria Falls.

The property is in the Eros district. Eros is a quiet part of the city which is reasonably centrally located. From Eros you can quickly reach the city center where there are popular bars and restaurants.

WildWifi does not manage flight bookings, every participant must book their own flight. Please make sure to be in Windhoek a minimum of one day before the start of your coliving month. The airport in Windhoek is called Husea Kutako International Airport, it is a short 30-minute taxi ride from Windhoek City Center.

2 weeks before your retreat month starts you will be invited into our WildWifi WhatsApp community. You will be able to contact everyone and share your flight details with us.

Each guest must take care of their visa requirements. In Namibia it is common to get a 90-day tourist visa upon arrival. Most tourists don’t need to apply for a visa in advance but please double check what is required for your nationality.

Please bring a plug adapter for the coliving. In Namibia plugs are Type D or Type M. Adapters are available to buy in Windhoek. Please also bring along a multi-socket extension lead if you have multiple appliances. We recommend packing any material needed for skill-sharing or mastermind events. We can provide a projector and sound system.

Every participant is obliged to travel with valid international health insurance which should also cover the treatment of COVID 19. WildWifi does not cover any accident or health insurance.

People who plan to take a 4-week holiday to Namibia without working remotely whilst staying with us. The coliving will be a healthy mix of both work and fun – focusing on work during most days, but also enjoying the country and travelling during weekends or once the coliving concludes.

Our coliving is for all those who are able to work remotely -including the self-employed, digital nomads, entrepreneurs and freelancers. Those who take part in our colivings enjoy living and working as part of a community, to exchange skills and to get to know the country, the locals and it‘s culture.

Once the coliving is fully booked, further booking enquiries will be placed on a waiting list. In the event of a cancellation, we will contact the waiting list.

The rooms are assigned to the same gender. We will do our best to match you to a suitable roommate. If you want to swap roommates during the coliving, you are welcome to do that on agreement with the other party/parties. If you join our coliving with your bestie or your partner you will, of course, share one room.

We survey our members and the enooooormous list of people interested in joining WildWifi, so know a thing or two about what people like and don’t.

The big problems most of us find with coliving are:

• Lack of cleanliness and messiness. It’s important to set ground rules and create environment that people respect.
• Privacy and personal space. If private rooms aren’t an enjoyable space to spend time, we can offer struggle finding personal space. This is a big focus for us along with having plenty of small areas to hide away in.
• Inconsiderate behavior. Sounds simple, but it’s not!
• Cost. Some colivings are in super trendy locations and charge extortionate amounts to stay without much community or friendliness. WildWifi is in Namibia where the cost of living is lower (although some items have high import tax!) and we partner with local businesses to offer a great experience that is more affordable and also benefits the local economy.
• Distractions and productivity. Have you ever tried working in a hostel!? It’s terrible. What you need is a coliving with a dedicated workspace and mindset geared to doing the best work of your life – not people running around backpacking in partying all day.
• Limited availability of single rooms. A lot of digital nomads travel solo and like to enjoy a room to themselves. This is obviously beneficial but does come at a greater cost. Colivings are already made affordable due to the monthly rates, and single occupancy rooms provide less income than doubles. 

Adjusting to new people. Yeh, this can be tough. At WildWifi, our ambition is to have a good number and variety of people at the coliving but split into smaller clusters. This gives you the benefit of meeting lots of people but the connection of a tight-knit group. We also organise a Welcome Night Braai BBQ and many other social events.

WildWifi typical attracts remote working professionals, digital nomads, freelancers, contractors and entrepreneurs, so the average age is typical higher than some people imagine. The average age is 33 with the range being 26-45 years old.

Coliving offers digital nomads and remote workers a lot of perks:

Wallet-friendly: Shared living cuts costs, making lifestyle locations more accessible.

Connect & collaborate: Meet fellow professionals, expanding your network and making friends for life.

Amenities galore: High-speed internet, coworking spaces, and more cater to your needs. Pool included!

Flexibility: Short-term and long-term stays accommodate your nomadic lifestyle.

Tight-knit community: In a coliving, you’ll benefit from the support of a strong community, forging friendships and enjoy social events.Stress-free living: Focus on work and personal growth while we handle utilities, maintenance, and cleaning. All bills included, plus a cleaner, maintenance team and laundry service.

Coliving comes in all shapes and sizes! For digital nomads and remote workers, it’s a concept that involves becoming part of a community around a building that offers shared living spaces with private bedrooms. Coliving fosters a sense of community, facilitates networking, and provides amenities such as high-speed internet, coworking spaces, and social events, making it an ideal choice for location-independent professionals.

Yes, we offer a 150 Mbps fiber connection that we share with our 20 Nomad guests. There is no load-shedding in Namibia.

Everyone provides their own food and beverage. We have a big community kitchen with sufficient stoves for people to cook at the same time. Each private room has a private fridge for you to store your food. If you do not want to cook yourself there is the option to order food from the in-house restaurant or order at a meal delivery service. We also have a bbq area if you fancy grilled food.

At each retreat, we have a community manager hosting the event. The CM is responsible for community events and is helping you out with any questions or needs during your stay.

Our coworking space is one large room with desks and office chairs. Around the accommodation there are many alternative ways to work, such as the dining room, a covered outdoor area or desks inside your private bedrooms. If you feel like a change of scene, there is a coworking space, cafes and bars nearby where you can work.

No specific vaccinations are mandatory for entering Namibia, but consulting your doctor is recommended.

Malaria is only present in the northern region. Windhoek and our weekend getaway locations are situated in malaria-free zones. If you do decide to travel further, you can easily get Malaria tablets in Windhoek during your stay.

No, booking a safari tour is always optional. Be aware that there are limited spots only for each safari. It might be that a short-term decision to join is not possible anymore.

The spots on the safari are primarily reserved for coliving participants. If we still have places available at a certain point in time, we will also be happy to give them to participants outside of the coliving. However, an interview should be conducted to ensure that it remains a harmonious group of like-minded people.

The cars are usually manual. We can not promise to get an automatic car since they are usually more expensive to rent and rare in Namibia. If you can only drive automatic cars you might not be able to be a driver but a passenger.

Yes, there is a possibility to ride as a passenger on the tour. There is usually a good balance of people who want to be drivers and passengers.

The lodge nights are the luxurious nights where we sleep in a room with a bed and a private bathroom. We share the rooms at the lodge with the same partner we share the tent with. There are (limited) options to upgrade to a single bedroom. The lodges do come partly with air conditioning or a fan. The lodge nights usually come with included breakfast and dinner. For lunch, you can order something from the restaurant and pay for yourself. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks (not included) can be ordered at the lodge’s own bar. Lodges usually come with a beautiful pool and invite you to relax before heading back into the bush.

If we are not camping at a campsite we will be camping in the wild. This means that our tour guide will choose a safe place in nature for us to set up camp. There we will have neither toilets nor showers available. You do your business in the bush and wash yourself in the morning with some water from the supply vehicle. Camping in the wilderness is usually one of the most enriching experiences of the participants. The maximum of wild camping nights in a row is usually 2 nights. After that we are either back at a campsite or a Lodge.

A campsite in Namibia offers a lot of comfort and is more comparable to glamping than camping. Nevertheless, there are also differences in each campsite in how extensive this luxury is developed. Basically, there are hot showers (warmed up by either the sun, fire, or electricity), toilets, running water, washing-up facilities, and some campsites that provide electricity to charge electronics. Often there is a main house that belongs to a lodge with a pool that you may also use as a camper. In the main Lodge house, you can also use the restaurant if the group is not cooking together.

Yes, the mattresses we provide are about 5 cm thick foam mattresses for a comfortable sleep.

Yes, sleeping bags and pillows are included in the price. We help you color-mark your pillow and sleeping bag for you during the tour.

Yes, this is an option, but we are limited to single tents. It is not possible to get single tents for all participants due to limited storage space. For the use of a tent as single tent there is an extra charge. We allocate single tents to those who request them first.

There is either the possibility to use ground tents or rooftop tents that are attached to the roof of the car. Your tent is pitched and dismantled by yourself.

We are happy to help settle the dispute. If you still don’t want to sleep together in one tent there is the option to swap tents with other tent neighbors or to spend the night under the wonderful starry sky of Africa.

You can either share a tent with your bestie from the coliving gang or we assign a coliving mate to you with whom you will share a tent. We will only mix gender if it is approved by both sides.

No specific vaccinations are mandatory for entering Namibia, but consulting your doctor is recommended.

Malaria is only present in the northern region. Windhoek and our weekend getaway locations are situated in malaria-free zones. If you do decide to travel further, you can easily get Malaria tablets in Windhoek during your stay.

For solo travelers seeking a shared experience, book right away!

We’ll pair you with a roommate in a twin room based on a brief survey you’ll complete to help ensure compatibility. Rooms are arranged by gender, with female and male travelers assigned to separate accommodations.

Yes – because WildWifi gets booked up far in advance, we introduced a deposit system so you can secure your spot but not have to pay the full amount until later.

The deposit is 20% of your total stay, with the balance required 2 months prior to your first month. Please note, we have to be very strict with this and will automatically cancel your booking if this is not met in order to allow someone on the waitlist to join. For cancellations, please take a look at our full policy here.

People from most countries can get a 3-month tourist visa on arrival at the airport. A 6-month Digital Nomad Visa is also available for Namibia, and is one of the most simple in the world to get. Get more information from NIPDB.

Absolutely! Our coliving welcomes individuals seeking a temporary change of scenery or work environment. Whether you have a permanent residence or simply crave new experiences, you’ll find a warm and inclusive community here.

Many of our community work full-time in their home country but like to work from abroad for 2 or 3 months each year for all the benefits it allows. Speak with your company and comfort them in knowing you’re visiting somewhere that really prioritizes work and personal growth.

The only requirement is that while you are here you are working and not on an extended holiday or backpacking trip! This is important for the culture and work productivity.

At the beginning of our coliving, a voluntary mastermind group is founded. This group meets once a week to exchange ideas on a specific topic. This topic is determined at the beginning of the coliving and based on the interests of the group. In order for this mastermind group to be active, it is led by a facilitator.

During skill-sharing nights, each participant will have the opportunity to explain their knowledge on a specific topic to the group within a small workshop. Topics examples include: SEO basics, LinkedIn marketing, photography basics, crypto currencies or simply experiences from running your own business. This participation is voluntary, but our experience shows that most people enjoy learning something new from another.
