Real Life in Madagascar: Walking the Chaotic Streets of Antananarivo
Real Life in Madagascar: Walking the Chaotic Streets of Antananarivo
Back for my 4th trip to Madagascar. As usual, my flight lands in Antananarivo. This trip I’m staying near the Place de l’independence for the 1st time. I would recommend staying in the area if you are in town. I booked 3 nights at the Hotel La Pousse Pousse, will be taking a Cotisse bus to Majunga later today.

On a ce qu’on mérite tout simplement
街に信号機が無いし、時々、手を出す人がいるのは物乞い?一応、公用語はフランス語になってるんだけど。
Looks 70 per cent similar to Indonesia in terms of street scenes. The people therefore look very much the same too. No need to take so many connecting flights to go there. Go straight to Indonesia to get just about the same feelings.
What do you mean by chaotic? I found it pleasantly alive. Not like walking on the street in other countries, It's scary as it's too quiet.
I really love the way you expose Antananarivo city; You are special. I am sure you enjoyed too much here. And you never looked at any negative side of the country. Of course there are negative sides but the most important is that you knew how to adapt with the situation.
I spent the first 16 years of my life in Majunga. The Northen-Western costal city. And just like you said it's like a ghost town in there during the days. Probably because of the heat.
Then I moved to Antananarivo to study Computer Science at the University.
The country is beautiful, the people are mostly friendly but we never lived with good life conditions.
Sometimes living is Madagascar is like being in Prison. Prisoners of those greedy politicians who get richer everyday so that +80% of the population die in complete poverty. You can't walk a few meters without seeing people so skinny that you can nearly see their bones; that work require 4 times the physical activity a normal human can do just to get $50 a month half of which will be stollen back by govt anyway 😢 I make about 10 to 15 times that but still sad tho.
On a positive note, I've been visiting the South-Estern part of the country a week ago. I've been to Isalo, one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. Even tho it was also the worst trip I've ever been on. About 38 to 40 hours in total inside a very small and uncomfortable Hyundai Starex van, on the worst roads of the planet.
I know, I know, it's very hard to stay positive when talking about MY country especially when you lived there for 24 years. But it is what it is. I hope one day we get through this ❤
hello , you really have a lot of guts to bring your camera like that, antaninarenina is kinda safe but if u go down and go to analakely it is dangerous
Pourquoi vous parlez sans cesse en anglais ?
Fais l'effort de parler français gugus…
It's crowded, not chaotic!
✊🏽👍🏽 hotep le monde 🌍 hotep l’Afrique, cher touriste mal 🦹 aimé, vous connaissez ou vous mettez les pieds 🦶, alors ne critiquez pas le pays sinon retournez vous, vos pères a colonisé ce beau 🤩 pays l’île de Madagascar 🇲🇬 🗽
It is a paradise island in the world. With its total biodiversity, wherever you go you are dazzled… Unique in its kind
What's with walking barefoot around Antananarivo? I don't get it when people do that here.
You know it’s gonna be chaotic cuz you have a sidewalk shoulder check in the first 30 seconds and neither bats an eye.
the only negative opinions come from the Malagasy !
dam i thought madagascar was a 4th world country but wow. very impress
Malagasi people are very jealous,
Les malgaches sont extrêmement fourbes, hypocrites, balances fainéants et surtout e sont des vrais assassins ! Les malgaches qui ont la peau jaune il faut s'en méfier, c'est des vrais bombes à retardement, perso je n'aimerai pas travailler avec un malgache ou l'avoir dans mon quartier, ils sont trop sournois et le pire de tout ça c'est que physiquement ils ont l'air gentils et inoffensifs, mais il cachent bien leur jeu car ce sont des serpents à sonnette !
Cleaner than many Africa cities, contrat.
"Le Louvre", j'ai passé une nuit dans cet hôtel, c'est magnifique à l'intérieur, c'est un bon souvenir. 😊
