A very memorable last night in Nosy Be
I went out for meal on my last night in Nosy Be, and chose a restaurant that I had yet to visit. I got talking (via the google translate app) with one of the waitresses and I arranged to meet her after the restaurant closed at 10pm. She is 25 with a 16-month-old baby boy. We met up and went out for a late meal, then I asked her to come and stay with me that night, she agreed and we went back to my hotel. I asked her what time she had to leave, she said 8am which was fine by me. Just before we went to sleep she asked me if I could help her to buy something for her son, I said yes and we would discuss it in the morning.
She left the next morning just before 8am, and before she left I offered her 50k to 'help buy some clothes' for her son. She smiled, and sweetly asked if I could help a bit more. I offered another 20k and her face lit up, and she whispered "merci beaucoup" as I handed her the money. Did I overpay? I don't think so.
It was a very memorable last night in Nosy Be.
I was in Madagascar for about 3 weeks. It was my first visit and obviously not enough time to find the 'real' Madagascar, but I really had a great time (despite being an English guy who does NOT speak French!) and met some really nice girls.
After I left Nosy Be I went to Toa and Tana for a few days and had a nice session with a girl in Toa, I'll post some more pics in a few days.
Well done, congratulations!

.[/QUOTE]That's what is all about for a monger.
Ever since my first visit I read and watched a lot about Madagascar and I am more and more convinced that I am not interested to experience what some in the community call, refer to " the real Madagascar " .
Hostile to newcomers? / disappointed by community
I get the feeling newcomers like me are having a hard time getting some answers they need.
I've been a guest for since 2018 on this forum and a registered member for 2 years.
Finally I made the choice to pay for a membership to communicate with fellow members, but to be honest it hasn't paid off.
All of my posts and questions in this thread have been ignored without response, also private messages I wrote to other forum members.
I will travel to Madagascar very soon and I could write my first reports that I can share here.
But the more time passes I'm getting more and more disappointed by the community because I feel the negative attitude towards new forum members who are just starting out with mongering and can't compete against the real OG's (senior members) of this forum.
Also, if you read the last 5 pages alone you get the sense of bitterness, too many hate comments instead of constructive discussions.
I know it's all about status for you, but please be open to others and offer help. Otherwise, what's the point of this site. If insiders keep all the valuable information and secrets themselves, what do I need a forum for.
I want to contribute to this forum and write reports to help others out after my upcoming trip, but again, who should I contribute to, if everyone is acting like they are too important to reply.
Please don't destroy internationalsexguide. NL and bring back the times 2018-2019 where people would actually help out another.
Thank you.
