Hello expats.
My name is Thomas, I come from Denmark but I am now living in Antananarivo, Madagascar.
My wife and I are planning to move to Antsirabe very soon for professional and personal reasons.
We have visited Antsirabe one time on a short vacation, and we really enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of the city, compared to the crowded and polluted Antananarivo.
I am starting this thread in the hope of connecting with other expats living in Antsirabe, to share experiences and general information about life in this city.
I will start with some questions that I hope some of you guys out there can help me answer:
- Are there any English or International Schools currently operating in Antsirabe?
- What are the best hospitals in Antsirabe?
- What are the best maternity clinics?
- What supermarkets are available there?
- Where do YOU shop? Mainly at the supermarket, or do you buy your food at the tsena?
- What hobby activities can be pursued in Antsirabe?
- Do you know any good veterinarian in Antsirabe?
and finally
- What are some nice residential areas of Antsirabe?
Personally we like to live around all kinds of people, Malagasy and expats.
Those are my questions for now. If you guys know any answers, please feel free to post them here. I will also be posting my own answers as I learn more about the city.
Cheers!
Thomas Ottosen Jr.
