The tropic of Capricorn to d'Isalo NP 🐚

Madagascar isn’t for the inexperienced traveller. It’s a very poor country and has an undeveloped infrastructure, meaning amenities are basic if there’s any at all, so it's meant adjusting to circumstances readily and connecting with others beyond linguistics and phone.

In a seeming whirlwind. I’ve been in beachfront beauty Anakao (on the tropic of Capricorn) connecting with locals and sea, sun, moon and stars. 

I've had an overnight stay in Tuléar “the white city” before making my way overland and hiking 19kms in prehistoric park d’Isalo with my guide, Marc.

In the park, I had a glorious day understanding tribes, burials, sacrifices within the sacred mountains of the park, walking atop them and within its basin, along the river to three pools and waterfalls working with my spirit team to release, clear and anchor new energies into the park.

I’ve had some pretty special moments and encounters too, including a crew of ring tail lemurs when I was alone by the river, who scarpered before anyone else arrived.

I saw a snake, spiders, multicoloured butterflies and dragonflies too.

I’ve been in an eco lodge overlooking the mountains, kinda camping indoors with no WiFi, electric or water but with a glorious sunset; blissfully happy (If sore)

I've also spent a lot of time on the road seeing the vast, changing landscapes from south to north which are stunning, surprisingly with both Africa and Asian influence.

The main road infrastructure is pock marked with pot craters. However I’ve laughed so much, sang a lot and felt my heart expand with the warmth, connection and kindness of others.

Most Malagasy people I’ve encountered have been so kind to me. I’m letting my adventure flow naturally and it really is. I’m instinctively knowing where I need to go (at right time), being met by souls who give me information I need to move forward… it’s blowing my mind.

Tomorrow I have a 14 hour taxi-brusse (public bus) to Morondava but my heart is bursting with happiness.

Follow the journey, your support is appreciated.
