Beauties Himba
In the north, near the border with Angola, in the province of Kaokoland, Himba tribe lives striking. Recently, they have from time to time to prevent the people from "outside" world, and after a few reports about them appeared in the world's biggest magazines and Discovery, there were many who want to visit their villages. It attracts visitors one thing of great beauty and singular, strange grace Himba woman.
In fact, this in Africa today hardly find: a completely primitive lifestyle was a natural for these people, not ostentatious. This is not the East African Masai, who for decades practically live levies from passing tourists as a major fishery, and run headlong change in the "primitive" clothes, barely seeing on the horizon the sweet dust from the wheels of a tourist bus.

A Himba are actually: are a semi-semi-nomadic existence in the tribal areas are almost completely barren desert, in conditions of severe water shortages. Not because they "could not get through to civilization", but because today prefer to live this way and do not need much of anything from the fact that they do not have and never has been.
Himba People really are, what they can see the new arrival. And the first meeting took place the day before our scheduled visit to the tribal village: in the tiny town of Opuwo, capital of Kaokoland, we met a lady, as if nothing had happened which was the the supermarket shopping.
