Interesting. We never visited Soatanana. Did you buy a scarf? We would love to see what they look like.
Do you and your brother plan to go back?
Hi there - he's making a traditional silk scarf. This was in a tiny village called Soatanana near Ambositra. It was amazing and the scarves are beautiful
What is he making?
Hey - thank you. This was taken just outside my house in Tsiroanomandidy. It was a lovely place to be. :-)
Wow. Those colors are amazing! Where was this taken?

We were only there for a little over a month, but it made a big impression on us. We wanted to go back this year but because of the political problems we are going to wait for a while.

Thats great! I don't play but many of our friends do. One of our customers is an ukulele maker.

- Wow - You got to see a lot of the country! Its such a big place, it takes a long time to see all the major sites. We didn't even come close, but we loved the time we spent in Tana, Morondava, Kirindy and Taolagnaro.

So do we. We know our friends are OK, but its very sad about the 100 people that died. Hopefully now things will be stable and food prices will come down.

We hope you find the Madagascar Network useful and invite other people living in Madagascar or interested in the country.
