Even madder in Mada
By the time you read this I should be somewhere over the Mozambique Channel – on my way to Madagascar. I’m heading over to get a police clearance certificate and to see my many friends in the capital city Antananarivo, or Tana as it’s commonly known. I’m not sure how often I’ll be able to blog while I’m there because the island’s Internet is slow at best – non-existent at worst. I do, however, plan on taking many photos! In the meantime, I leave you with a few images from a previous trip.

They called me weed
I have been blogging here since around April 2011 - my little place on the blogosphere to express myself creatively. As a teenager I used to write a diary - in fact, as a 17-year-old living in Belgium, I wrote religiously every day. Fortunately the Internet didn't exist back then because my ramblings as a teenager were ever-so-slightly dark, cynical and depressing. You won't find much of that here. Also, mostly, I try not to get too deep or philosophical in this forum - I'd like my photography to uplift and inspire, and, where I can, I try to bring a bit of humour into my writing too. I've been fortunate enough to travel extensively and have made many friends across the globe. This is my spot to keep in touch with them.
All the best with your visit. May I order a. THB please? Or GOLD
Greetings to the Midgeleys
See you soon. Cannot wait!!!!!!!!!!!!! My house has internet. I’ll give you a key. Hey, can I post the 1979 as my facebook profile pic? My year of birth.
It would be nice to know when you’ll be back.
Hello, ma. I’ll be back on the 23rd… No Internet here for the moment, so I won’t be blogging at all though.
Stunning images. Wonderful.
THB here too please! And love to the Midgleys. My erratic internet makes keeping in touch touch and go.
