  Nomads

Mystery unveils right in front of my eyes when I enter Soatanana village. A large procession, everyone wearing white and singing religious hymns, moves towards the local church. It feels like I am an unwelcomed outsider, who will ruin the solemn moment by the sound of a camera shutter. Is it even possible to capture this divine light?

But for these people, I’m just a nomadic wanderer. So they humbly do whatever the church teaches them.

It feels even more marvellous when you realize that this truly biblical story revives right in the middle of rural highland Madagascar.
