Dear Nicole, dear Klaus. Thank you very much for the impressive two weeks I was allowed to spend with you over the turn of the year. On the long drive from Tana to Sarodrano, I had the opportunity for the first time, on my third trip in Madagascar, to get to know impressive insights into the simple and poor life of the people in this beautiful country. It does not always have to be the national parks that one visits in a country. Many small "jewels" are also scattered throughout the country, often not far off the road. You have the experience and knowledge to show these treasures to your guests and bring them closer, whether landscape and people or fauna and flora. I myself was touched by the close, personal contact with the inhabitants in village 13. To see how they keep themselves afloat with the simplest of means, what a home of theirs looks like and how friendly they welcomed us, touched me deeply. And yet somehow I had the impression that they have even more of life than we do in Europe. With many hundreds of photos I took home beautiful memories and I hope that they will tide me over until we meet again in July for a great adventure: The splendor of the slopes Kind regards Martin...
