Photographer’s Note

today i want to present to all of you a quick look on the ways of transports for malagasy people (and poor or searching authenticity tourists): the taxi brousse.
this one is a " Bâché" : sheet metal, tarpaulin,wood blanks,goods and luggages, and approximativly 100-150 people!
it's cheap of course!
but you can forget: comfort, space, strict hour of leaving( it goes when it's full!!), fastness ( but it is better to have an heavy slow vehicle than a fast one which with the driver can believe he is a formula 1 pilot and bring you in the ditch!)
for compensation, you win some unique funny moments, unforgetable complicity with the population!
mada without taxi brousse is not entirely mada!
i put in work shop a view of the inside of this taxi brousse taken by a friend
