Discovering a new country, what an
experience! A few days ago I was having dinner with my family and my friends... I will miss them so much! Yet, I feel as if the air and the energy was different in this land.
Nature and wildlife are extraordinary! The landscapes are incomparable. When I
was about to land, I was already amazed by the island. Small, yet, the trees
paint the whole land green. The trees are quite special, the second picture is
from one of the trees. Another thing that blew my mind off are the beaches, I
haven't got the chance to visit them, but it is on my list!
The most amazing
thing yet: THE PEOPLE
People here are
extremely nice!!!! They are welcoming and warm. It feels like I am a native of
this island. Even though I can nearly understand two words in their language,
malgache: hello --> salama, and welcome --> tonga soa. Luckily most of
the inhabitants understand French. They are so welcoming that I think I might have lived here forever!
I can't believe I
am here, it is even more amazing that what I expected. Today I and the rest of
the team travelling with me are going to sleep at a hostel, tomorrow, and
almost the rest of the year, we will stay at this big gym near the school we
are going as volunteers. How would I describe my arrival and first thoughts:
AMAZING.
This is the view from the plane!
