F'inona no mampilay an'i Madagasikara a?


Ty misy bandy, Danny Hervol, avy any Montana (USA ho an'zay tena tsy ao mints) nipetraka 2 taona tany Madagasikara ho an'ny Peace Corps. Mahay miteny gasy hono takaka zao. Mitantara ny diany sy ny fiainany tany (ny aretina sy ny fitadiavana bibikely anaty sakafo ohatra) sy ny fahitany ny Gasy (ny fanamboniana na fanaratsiana "Vazaha" sns) ny nilay sy ny tsy dia nilay izy ato @ Hungry Horse News.

Na zany na tsy zany hiverina (mety tanteraka) any @ tanàna leiry @ ty volana ty. Nangataka asa sns.

Why go back to a place where he faced so much?
"The people are much happier there. They enjoy life. It's not just work, work, work," he said.

Hehe, zany hono...
