Great experience
February 06, 2025by: Bucheli FabriceProgram: GVI Internships in MadagascarI really enjoyed my stay at GVI Madagascar. It was a great experience and I would recommend it to everyone. The nature is breathtaking and very unique. You can discover new things every day. Also it is a great opportunity to meet new friends and a new culture. Would definitely do it again!

You will get the opportunity to travel and, more importantly, immerse yourself in the rich culture of the Malagasy people. The locals are incredibly respectful, and the warm, welcoming community will make you feel right at home. Nosy Be is not only beautiful but also very safe. There is something here for everyone whether you are interested in wildlife, teaching, or community work. And on the weekends, you can relax and explore the surrounding islands.
