AND IF WE WILL BRING YOU TO VISIT THE HEART OF THE ISLAND!!! !
Madagascar is an authentic , beautiful and extraordinary island. It is distinguished first by the beauty and richness of its flora and fauna, its diversity of landscapes and population. But its greatest richness is in the appreciation of its Human being and the local atmosphere .
So come on, we will bring you to discover these warm welcomes, these affectionate smiles.
We will bring you to discover our local atmosphere : the color and liveliness of markets, and public places. But also, to meet communities in remote villages and share with them their daily lives, with this simplicity for them to live in sobriety, in harmony with what exists, but always with a smile.
We will taste various dishes, various products and culinary curiosities : such as the "mofo gasy, ramanonaka, mofo baolina, menakely, mofo katsaka, mofo mangahazo, mofo ravina ... » (various doughnuts), koba ravina (sweetness based on banana, peanuts and rice flour), vary amin'anana (sticky rice cooked with breasts). Les "maskita" (small meat skewers and zebu hump), the well vinegared and salted achards, the "ankisy" (grilled pouples), the romazava, the ravitoto, … There are so many, and each region has its speciality. So there will be so many to enjoy !
We'll also walk through the colorful and lively markets, walking along the small alleys, between the butchers, and the small grocery stores that sell whole mix of products : from bicycle tires to cooking oil. We will walk among the merchants sitting on the floor to spread and sell their fresh vegetables transported their campaign, or flea markets that spread while a string of "pieces of things".
We will go to meet people, men, women, children. Young and old, everyone will have something to tell us, something to share.
We will see the children playing with used tires and two sticks, "indestructible" handmade cars with everything they can find (cans, plastics, bricks, wood, capsules, …). The traces in the red earth will be enough to create their city, their road.
We will see their playground : in the trees, outdoors, in water or along the streams. Everything is a call to play : the trunks of trees that will be their spaceships with all the unimaginable controls, like a branch that will serve as a button to spit fire, another that will activate a protective screen, a branch that will serve as a defense weapon, another for a radar ....
We will talk with older ones to see them reliving their experiences, their struggles, their failures and successes. their stories, wich they will continue to tell to their offspring. And also, their learning, their wisdom and advice.
We will share the father's daily life , brother, uncle, cousin, working the land for the survival of the whole family. From the mother, sister, aunt who do their best to have an acceptable home, a child in her arms, another, in the back, a basket on her head and a bucket of water in one hand, waiting for the cassava harvested the day before to be cooked, which will serve as a lunch for the family.
We'll meet various local craftsmen, various crafts products, and various achievements of work of all kinds (brickmaker, grower, farmer, …). We appreciate their know-how, their enthusiasm and dedication to find the strength to do their work.
And beyond all this... There will always be that welcoming smile wherever we go, that simplicity, that feeling of having lived and discovered aspects of life that we might not have known and could have enjoyed. And then, the natural beauty of the island, the diversity in terms of landscapes, and regions, characters. The authenticity of the sites, reserves and national parks that will surely amaze you. The breathtaking landscapes, heavenly beaches and turquoise waters ...
