Once upon a time, somewhere. I used to link to blogs that should be noticed because of their Real touch on Malagasy way of life. Life you get to know while waiting for the bus at 6 in morning when you just had enough time to get coffee and menakely. Did someone read those posts? I sincerly don’t know, don’t care – maybe because I still don’t know what this blog of mine is about – but I found new ideas for this category and my little tiny brain went on its way to develop a fun game. Of course all my good friends out there were invited to take part and , surprisingly, they joined me (very quickly) in describing “Madagascar…50 years after”. Our way to share between generations on how we lived back then when life was good, how we wish the country should have turned and ,why not?, what do we want tomorrow to look like. If you happen to have 10 minutes on hands, please join us by starting the conversation among your friends and relatives especially those who had lived independance days in 1960, 1972 revolution, hard life in 1980 or streets in 1991….it won’t take you more than 10 minutes, 3 questions …I will be patiently waiting for you!!!
Who are you?
I am a full time day dreamer, part time procrastinator and a wanna-be photographer.


What have been your best memories of life in Madagascar so far?

My best memories of life in Madagascar so far are during my childhood of course! My parents would take me to Blanche Neige or Honey for waffle every month or so and on birthdays they would take me there for ice cream :-) I also remember the time when my bestfriend, this little girl named Hajatiana would come to our “vavahady” every morning for 3 to 4 years to call me so we could walk to school together. Little Hanta’s mom would also pick us 3 girls (me, Hajatiana and Hanta) up every afternoon after school and buy us some snacks on the road. Those “mofosakay” are the best! I would also cherish the best childhood memories I had vacationing in Antsirabe and Ambositra.


How do you see our country in 50 years??

I see, or at least expect significant development for Madagascar in 50 years. Well 50 years is a long time and given the history of our country, it’s hard to be optimistic though because I think the worst is yet to come. I think that we may go through the worst (economically, politically, etc) before seeing the light at end of the tunnel. Therefore I think that everything we, including politicians in Madagascar will determine how we will be in 50 years.

What are you willing/planning to do to have a better life or to reach your goals in life?

Despite being a part time procrastinator, I am willing and planning to work very very hard to reach my goals in life. I think that when you put your heart and soul into something the reward is much more appreciated and valued.
