You do not need much, just a Kikoy, that you might have taken in a previous trip to Tanzania (see Kikoy post)…. that would be great –a strong sun cream, sun glasses and mineral salts to drink. Sun burns are easy to get!

Susan in Madagascar |

Girls love to braid hair in many different ways. Women and daughters love to weave even straw to prepare banana-sheets to cover roofs and walls of their houses, while man fix roofs.
Following women to pick small fishes and crabs in shallow water during low tide is also a fun way to spend the day.

Helping fishermen to mend their nets and sail up with them on colored wooden sail-boats to reach the coral barrier for bigger fish is a full day experience.
Late afternoon is time to set up fire on the sand, clean fish, stick them on skewers and set them around the flames to cook.
When Sunday comes, everybody at church and the singing can be heard from far away; the bell hanging from a weak pole calls all the village people to run and be on time.
When my children were young, they loved to live in these villages. It was a great moment of freedom for them while I had my own time to lay on a hammock to read a nice book under the shade of a coconut tree.
