Exploradio - Your Audioguide for Namibia
NAMIBIA'S MULTIPLE PRIZE-WINNING AUDIOGUIDE APP & PODCAST „Exploradio shares accurate knowledge about Namibia in an exciting way that enables mindful traveling – for locals and tourists alike!“ In Africa folktales are believed to have the power to hold the community together: the ancestors, the living, and those not yet born. They serve to communicate morals and traditions to the young in preparation of life's obstacles. Based on this, we believe that sharing historical facts, cultural norms and knowledge about the environment in a way of telling a story, we can increase cultural understanding and empathy while delivering relevant information to enable mindful traveling in Namibia. On the streaming platforms we are sharing some audio clips from our app as well as host a long format podcast. The app connects the audio clips with a GPS location, so that you can find out more about landmarks and interesting sites in your vicinity. However our library also offers a variety of audio clips telling you everything about Namibian food, customs & traditions, languages and nature as well as some African folktales. Let our voices become your best invisible Namibian friend while sharing our excitement for this breathtaking country. Yours, Sij & Jana Founders of Exploradio Audioguide Namibia P.s. If you prefer to read, we also got you covered: Every audio clip on the app has a detailed text description to deliver knowledge in your preferred way.

As one of the largest nature reserves in the world, measuring around half the size of Switzerland, Etosha National Park is located in northern Namibia. The name "Etosha" is rooted from the language of the Ovambo and means something like "big white place". It's a very fitting name: the Etosha pan is covered all over with a silvery-white salt-clay crust. The additional year-round sparse vegetation gives the pan its characteristic mystical coloring.

Tue, 05 Mar 2024 - 02min - 34 - N/a'an ku sê-Foundation
Anyone who wants to volunteer in Namibia or is particularly interested in big cats and the carnivores of this country will probably stumble across Naankuse sooner or later. The name Naankuse – or actually N/a'n ku sê – comes from the San language and means as much as “God will protect us”.
The Naankuse Foundation, which over the years has developed into a renowned conservation organisation, was founded by Marlice and Rudie van Vuuren and combines animal protection in wildlife sanctuaries with social commitment in the form of schools and a clinic.
The lodges of the Naankuse Foundation are spread all over Namibia and offer a variety of activities. And if you don't just want to watch but lend a hand as well, you've come to the right place: Volunteers can help out everywhere at Naankuse and support research in the reserve, track animals and collect data, build camps and waterholes or play and learn with the children at school. Volunteer tourism is also an important source of funding for the organisation.
If this kind of volunteering sounds like the perfect holiday for you, or if you are simply looking for beautiful lodges where you can relax and get to know Namibia's wildlife at the same time, take a look at the Foundation's website: www.naankuse.com.

Tue, 06 Feb 2024 - 04min - 33 - Pap - traditional Namibian porridge
Pap is one of Namibia's traditional dishes par excellence, and a true all-rounder at that. The cereal porridge – pap is Afrikaans for porridge or gruel – is made from Mahangu or maize and served in every Namibian household at every conceivable time of day. Mahangu, or pearl millet, is mainly grown in northern Namibia. Traditionally, the grain is threshed by hand, ground into flour with blunt tools and separated from dirt with the help of the wind. If the pap is prepared with mahangu, it has a greyish colour.
Mielie pap on the other hand is made from maize flour and is white. Even though the appearance and taste differ depending on the grain, the way of preparing the pap is the same. The important things here are the right ratio of water and flour, timing and especially perseverance when stirring the pap. But don't worry, you can also slowly get accustomed to the traditional way of cooking pap. Supermarkets sell instant pap that you only have to mix with water or milk in order to enjoy a nice meal. Usually, pap is served with meat and sauce. But there are also sweet versions that are refined with condensed milk, for example. No matter which variation sounds best to you: You should definitely try pap whilst travelling through Namibia!

On 10 December 1959, protests around this law escalated and led to the Windhoek Massacre. Listen to this audio-clip to learn more about this tragic event.
