Competing trips was my way. Travel is for me the best way to open up to the world and to others. I am delighted to share this unparalleled wealth of my beloved country Madagascar: thourgh the national parks and the innocent smile of children, the beautiful beaches and the typical dishes, not to mentionthe folk excursions, all travelers return with nostalgia after their trip to Madagascar, the island-continent.

Swimming with whale sharks: a sensational experience
Settled for nearly 30 years in Madagascar. I live in Nosy-be where I operate in tourism and hospitality. Concerned about the sustainable and responsible development of this region, I am very involved on the social side. I particularly appreciate in Madagascar the kindness, the naturalness and the sense of welcome of the Malagasy population. But also the great authenticity of the destination and its landscapes.

I was lucky to live in Madagascar for five years. Settled in France today to contribute to the development of Escapades, I have the chance to return very regularly to the continent-island, my second homeland. Passionate about sports, I particularly appreciate the cruises and the exceptional dives that can be done in the archipelago of Nosy Be.

Travel rhymes with encounter and discovery. Madagascar is the description. There is nothing like this to discover what human value is through its peoples; the environment through its natural resources: the different endemic species (fauna and flora), the diverse, unique and spectacular landscapes. I can only be proud of my origin, native of such a beautiful country. So I volunteer in the development and promotion of this dream destination…

From a very young age, I loved visiting my grandparents in the countryside, smelling the fresh air in the meadow, listening to the songs of the birds and walking in the forest. It is this love of nature and travel that has led me into tourism today. I like to introduce people to the beauty and importance of nature in my home country to encourage them to protect and conserve it.

For me to travel is to realize the dreams of childhood, to share with the local people moments of joy, of happiness by immersing totally in their culture in order to know them more and more. For me, the choice of the tourism sector has therefore become not only a great opportunity to fulfill this dream but also to be able to share with others what I have already experienced. My country deserves to be known by the Malagasy people themselves and also by the whole world.
