Dear all,
Happy to be back in France and to have some time for myself now that the kids have returned to school. We had an amazing adventure in Madagascar. Our vacation wasn’t a relaxing one. We were actually up around 6:30 every morning along with the locals. The hot sunlight, the children’s songs and cries, and the smells of coal fires burning around us motivated us to discover another day on this island. Every day we were busy learning, observing, hiking…. and driving a lot too. We were so busy discovering a new dimension of humanity. So in the evening we were in bed by 9:30! Besides sometimes we had no electricity so it was just better to sleep. 
It wasn’t relaxing, but I feel relaxed! I think because it was such a cultural shock. I disconnected from the rest of the world and lived the present in total awareness. It was fascinating! I think I prefer this kind of traveling than just sitting on a beach doing nothing! that stresses me out more. I need to be occupied!
