God has created lands with lakes and rivers for man to live. And the desert so that he can find his soul.

Kalahari Story
We life under Kalahari skies… more beautiful than in any other place I know, with people as diverse as the
animals and plants that live and grow here. We are Kalahari and enjoy sharing it all with you.
"Snuffel" Fact
The Kalahari Desert came into existence approximately sixty million years ago. The desert gets its name
from the Tswana word Kgala ("the great thirst"), or Kgalagadi, Khalagari, or Kalagare, meaning "a waterless
place". Over four hundred species of plants have been identified in the Kalahari Desert. The Kalahari's
sand is better than most deserts at retaining water, and therefore allows for more plant life than most
deserts.
