Namibia Lightning Warning! I Can't Go Back After Staying in a Zannier Tent

Girls!! I just came back from Africa and I'm crying while writing this💔 Don't book Zannier Hotels Sonop I'm afraid you'll leave your soul in the desert like me Now I feel like the city night view is just plastic lights😭 📍Let's talk about how scary the location is Hidden in the heart of Namibia's oldest desert🌵 When the helicopter landed, I thought I had traveled to Mars There wasn't a single blade of grass for hundreds of miles (The driver said: "This patch of sand is 50,000 times bigger than your neighborhood") ⛺️How crazy is it to have 10 tents hanging on granite? 1920s antique telescopes + handmade wooden beds While taking a bath, I suddenly found the bathtub facing the desert horizon🛁 (I was stunned while taking a bath and watching the sunset) 🌌It's true that you can swim into the Milky Way in the open-air pool The night I was lying by the infinity pool looking at the Magellanic Clouds The guide suddenly said, "The starlight above your head is from 100,000 years ago" This urban dog was suffocated by romance on the spot✨ 🍽️Dinner was served directly with antelope chops and desert wild vegetables The chef came with champagne and said it was game he had just hunted this morning (My knife and fork were shaking, but it was so delicious that I licked the plate!!) ⚠️Here are a few fatal flaws 1️⃣The tent is so full of antique furniture that it's like a museum I almost broke a million-dollar vase when I went to the bathroom in the middle of the night😱 2️⃣There's no partition between the bathroom and the bedroom (But looking at the desert starry sky while taking a bath, I suddenly felt like I didn't need a door) 3️⃣My phone had absolutely no signal and I was completely out of touch As a result, I met a wealthy elderly French couple at the observatory Now they've invited me to stay at their manor in Paris🙉 🎬The most amazing thing is the open-air desert cinema Wrapped in a cashmere blanket watching "Lawrence of Arabia" Suddenly, the green eyes of wild animals flashed in the distance (It was as exciting as a 4D ride at Universal Studios) Now going back to work feels like being in jail All I can think about is riding a camel chasing the sunset🐫 My friends say I've been bewitched by the desert But who wouldn't be obsessed after staying in a $10,000 a night tent!! (Finally, to tell the truth: this place is only suitable for immortals who can quit modern civilization. Mortals, enter at your own risk!!)
