Good evening
I am a married female with two children born and raised in South Africa. My husband and I are considering moving to Namibia. I haven't been there but have heard many wonderful things about the country. There is a job opportunity for my husband in Nambia. There is one for me in Alexander Bay which is in South Africa but not far from Namibia. Will we be able to move there, live there and me travelling in and out to South Africa basically everyday.

It's not practical. Alexander Bay is close to the boarder but is your husband also going to be working close to the boarder too? Also how long can you really last with your passport getting stamped 4 times every day? You can either move to Namibia or maybe visit over weekends but going through border control everyday is not feasible
