Madagascar

Madagascar was very poor. I have seen poverty before through my travels to other places but Madagascar touched me in a way no other place has. I saw young kids working on the side of the road pounding rocks to make gravel and working in the field to gather clay and mud to make bricks. I found out many kids don’t get to go to school. I saw people brushing their teeth outside. The average person lives on $1 USD a day. Their houses are very small and mostly one tiny room. A lot of people do not have beds and sleep on leaves.

Madagascar is a beautiful country though and has lemurs. I hope to go back one day and help the people of Madagascar.


Ciao for now.
