A morning by a Himba family

Himba in the Kunene region cannot be associated with just one lifestyle. Some have a nomadic existence and others a semi- nomadic lifestyle. Some Himba family conduct mixed farming and I know Himba with modern closing and an academic education as well. Now I would like to show you a typical morning by a Himba family which conduct mixed farming. Himba usually start their day early – at around 5 o’clock. Because during lunch time, when they prepare their corn mash, the temperature frequently reaches more than 40 degree centigrade – impossible to work.
