Reading some posts, years back the information was clear, do give up and it was underlined with I giant of a army guy ho got beaten up too. Therefor only carry on your body what you can afford to loose and passe it over.

Bear in mind the criminals are likely to bee professionals operating in groups. I like the normal temperament of the Gassy people but several observations including girls got me to the conclusion, if they get stressed adrenaline ist quickly boiling over and it is not a big deal they rather stab and kill you than loose face.

On the other hand, the police was never a problem to me. In old posts were several time cases reportet of paying bribes. Never happend to me, actually I often saluted them and they did so back in honor.

Again the times of the pirates are over and yes white scum was in a form of self degrading present.

Waw! I feel for you. It can take some time to recover from that.

I have only ended up at gun point once in my life (in El Salvador) and I was shivering for 2 hours. Of course that one was a real gun.

At LaBuse: what are the chance to see a real gun in Mada (except the police / army) ? It seems to me EXTREMELY small.

Knifes on the other end are quite common in Tana. You can buy a big scary one on the street for very little. Like literally in a normal street shop.

In Tana when you get robbed. I wrote when not if. LOL. If you live there it's going to happen. There's either gangs of youths usually armed with an assortment of knives. Rest assured. They don't need guns. But that's usually after night fall in in dark corners. All three french mates I stayed in the guest house have been robbed. 9 pm. For example in front of the french cultural institute. Two of them are street smart. One carries a nunchaku and knows how to use it. The other guy scared the bad guys away with his telescopic cudgel. Again he's Krav Maga trained. The other case might be target of opportunity like it happened to a mate of mine. In broad daylight the guy pulled a knife. I figure he was just hungry. My mate gave him some change and he fucked off.

Then there's professional crime involving fire arms. People get robbed in broad daylight. But very unlikely you fall victim. People draw large amounts of cash in the banks. They just store it in their rucksack s. There was a case in the news. They shot him outright took a couple of million ariary. The guy was caught. The new hundreds of security cams paid off. Turned off it was a NCO of the army using his service pistol. Also police is happy to rent out their pistols for a robbery. Or commit robberies themselves.

The third case are the dahalo. They have makeshift firearms, stolen AK47's, Machetes, Spears. Etc. These are cattles rustlers branching out occasionally as highwaymen. Certain RNs especially south are notorious but there were also deadly roadblocks on the RN leading from Antsirabe to Morondava. Never take overnight transport. There's units of Gendarmerie armed to the teeth to hunt down these guys. But you're talking big distances. By the time they arrive the bad guys are miles away.

So enough written. To scare some people off. LOL. As I said. Avoid moving at night. Especially with all your stuff. Read french forums.

There's hair raising stories. All true.

La Buse.

I was sitting in the morning outside in the Restaurant Delice in Manakara wachting the folks passing by. On two separate tables were two other Vahazas watching theirs mobiles.

All of a sudden a young guy got my attention as he several times passing by in a minute. On his turning-point he was focusing me. He came back and about six meters away from me on the street facing his back to me he pulled out a proper gun, pistol for some seconds, he turned around watching at me.

Thoughts went through my head and a shiver went down my spine. After a long minute or two play cool, I got inside and reported it to the staff. Guess what they said?

" Oh we know, that's the local idiot with his Toy gun protecting us. ".

I paid, and left, making sure he could not follow me.

I never had any real problem, as far as I know!!

When you talk to the Basque at LE Glacier he will tell you Storys and gives you advise. At LE Glacier there was a girls ho showed her hand with a deep scar all a cross. She said it was a year ago on broad daylight when tho guys with a knife took her smartphone wich she was holding to on Avenue Inpendence. The area by the way where young guys advertising the repair and decoding om mobiles. A English businessman living in Antsirabe for years told me after 22 PM there is no law enforcement on the street at all. Each room door in hotel Diamant I stayed in was broken in several times judged by the markings.

On the other hand it is a large country with +-30 Millions.

Hi!

I plan to fool around too, for few weeks. I'm particularly interested to make a road-trip from Tana to Tulear, and then go up along the coast until Morondava.

It seems that you did go to Tulear by the RN7.

Did you rent a car and drive alone?

Then from Morondava, what did you do? Flight to Tana back?

It seems that you traveled alone with no wingman. Except Tana, are there any other place where you could smell danger?

I'm french and have decades of solo travel / work in Africa and Asia, so I know the game.

Thanks for your answers, as I'm planning this road-trip alone.

My recommendation:

- Tana- antsirabe: cotise.
- Antsirabe -> morondave -> Antsirabe : cotisse (because now you understand you wont be going from Tulear to Morondave!)
- Antsirabe - other towns along RN7 - ultimatly Tulear: you will find other cooperative that operate buses. Honestly they are almost as nice as Cotisse.
- Tulear-> Tana: fly!

Keep in mind that Tulear and Morondava (and the whole west coast are PIPING hot: 36 degrees some days).

Don't rent a car! What will you do when in the middle of nowhere you tire bust, change it? And when the spare tire bust 1 hour later? FUCKED!

When on the road with a flat tire (or other part of the car that need maintenance) you will feel vulnarable!

The only 2 place I was told about danger was Tana and middle of the road far away from any town. I never actually smelled any danger myself. But I felt that traveling by bus was the best choice. I did also rent car with driver for tours (Isalo and Tsingy), but we always traveled with other cars. And the driver was more a car expert that a driver. Totally able to repair the car, and carrying a lot of spare parts.

Note on Cotisse: you can call and pay using Mvola, no need to go to office.

Note on all the bus: if there is space, you can book 1, 2 or 3 seat, based on your budget and size. Usually I tried to get 2 seats in the nice busses, and when I had to take taxi brousse I went all the way to 4 seats!

I am currently in Tana, if you are still here, let me know, lets have dinner at Sakamanga.

Three of the them did have their last shaving several weeks back. After the finished shave the razor got either clogged or blunt. The others could keep the razors, since they must have the last shaving just days back, but it made certainly a different. I remember two girls after I finished my job posing in front of the mirror. All of them took the suggestion by delight, again something the locals are rather not doing. When seeing them again later some liftet up the arms with a smile on the face. Why you are asking? The soap brush gets rinsed in hot water and dried and a still use it now and again with a smile on my face.

[Kako123]

Shaving 15 girls wow. Did you change the razors each time?

I always liked the place. Place to eat was Zandina, you can watch the pedestrians, Breakfast spot is Mirana were Vahazas meet.

The Grand Avenue ist still a hook up strip during daytime, watch for red lips. After 4 years the public toilet still not finished yet. The area Diamant is a lost place.

I got chattend up by a black spinner girl at the avenue, gorgeous. She guided me to " Etoil des neiges " where she sung karaoke. After we went to " La Vaginette " , a " boit de nuit" males pay 5 K entrance where the name is Programme.

After the first round at the hotel room, I shaved her first under her arms and after her pussy. I gave her 40 K in the morning and we made a date for the evening. To my surprise she came with a good looking friend. After some talking we decided to go strait to the hotel. The new girls undressed, took a shower and I shaved her as promised too. She enjoined it much while the first watched Tv. After the shave I fucked her and the first was watching. I gave her 20 k and she left happy.

Dressed my self and we two went for diner. After diner, the same procedure as usual.

In the six weeks I shaved around 15 girls, moste of them did not have much to shave anyway, just a proper clean up. All enjoyed it and got hot wile I could examine their pussy and got hot again my self.

I was always at night with the first girl together, we visited the Vulcan lake, Lac Tritriva by Tuktuc 25 K. On the Way you passe THB. Either true or not she told me her story why she is doing so. Separat story.

Just walking of the Grand Avenue down to the thermal bath, there ist a public toilet to the right. Two attraktive good dressed girls do offer the service in there. Blow job, pee assistance and fuck.

Tulear to Morondava along the coast. Not in the Saison pluie. Maybe after the cyclone season. I'd say between May and September. There's several rivers to cross. Best take a Boutre which is doing Cabotage along the coast. They continue the asphalt road from Tulear to Morombe. After Morombe theres only adventure. From Tulear to Morombe there's now normal Taxi Brousse running. Besides the camion brousse. I was thinking to go but at that time last March Morombe city center was completely flooded after the last major cyclone hit of the Saison. And I was not in the mood to suffer.

Hi!

Along the coast from Tulear to Morondava: sand, sand, sand. An extreme trip with a well equipped 4 x 4. But wonderful stops in lodges in the different bays for 2 or 3 days: Salary bay, Ambohiotrabo, Morombe. Calculate min 7 days and the car for 100 EU a day minimum (if you find a crazy driver in Tulear).

2 month traveling solo, here are some thoughts and tips.

Its worked for me today also with mastercard 1. 2 million in one go no charges near pharmacy at ambatoaloka also it gives very good exchange rate for mastercard.

On banking note: I withdraw 800 k with SG, fee was 8 k (I think). But then on my statement, I was only charged 800 k, the 8 k just vaniched. Quite interesting really.

Card: Citi Mastercard.

With her parents? Haha.
By the way which hotel do you stay?

Ho yes, that's no surprise.

I once partied with Mother, daughter and cousins. Mother was telling me: "my daughter is drunk, don't fuck her tonight, fuck her tomorrow. " and then she implied I could fuck her (the mother) tonight instead.

Another time I meet this girl online, it's late already, and we agree to meet at my hotel. She lives in 67 ha (unsafe at nigh) so she explains that her cousin is going to hand-deliver her to me, which he then did. (FYI, this is a situation with no money involved). She is a very muslim girl. I then asked "doesn't you cousin mind you just come here to sleep with me? Answer: "no he agree that this is the best way to forget my ex-boyfriend who was not good to me". Unbelievable.

That's quite surprising, I had more than 20 girls, and they were all shaved already (if I recall well).

I just don't want people to think it's a jungle here.
