And each time I meet people I've known thousands km away.. and telling myself how small this world is!

Teach, Learn, Share

Don't ask me about Madagascar unless you have a couple of hours to listen! I can barely stop myself when I talk about this island...

I can teach about French and Malagasy food, culture, or politics.

I'd love to learn about the people I meet, about their culture, their trips, their hobbies...
