This is my house. I live in the half closest to you. That solar panel on my roof powers my only way to reach the outside world... a CB Radio.

His name means "the cause of happiness".

On our way back from the caves... Carrying cow meat (dinner).

Tsingy (the rocks). Bridge.

My name in Malagasy. "mareesalee".

In the caves... People used to live here.

They'll meet in the middle in a few million years.

His name is Tanio. He calls me "salee".

Do you think he's pondering the inner workings of that solar-powered battery charger?

Cows, grazing in the rice fields post harvest.

I'll try to update with more in the near future. Please give feedback, I significantly reduced the quality... does that interfere with viewing pleasure? I could try to make them a little bigger. Things are great here. Calm. I'm sorry I didn't send any updates during the political crisis... it's still not over. If you curious google madagascar news.

I send you all my best.

Take Care,

Marshall
