This BLOG is about my experiences while in Madagascar and is not meant to express the views of the Peace Corps, Peace Corps Staff, Peace Corps Volunteers, Peace Corps Trainees, or the U.S. Government. These are solely my opinion and observations.

- Matthieu
- I graduated from Kansas State University in 2009 with a bachelor of science in Social Work. I was to serve as a Peace Corps Community Health Education volunteer in Niger from Oct. 2009 to Dec. 2011, but now have been moved to Madagascar.
Send me mail, please!
Instructions:
-Write the address label in red.
-Write “Par Avion” and “Air Mail” on envelopes, boxes.
-Number your letters. Don’t send money.
-If you have stickers from church or any charity you’ve donated to, stick them over the taped edges of a box or packing envelope so that it’s easy to see if the package has been tampered with.
-If you send a box, tape the inside (as well as the outside) flaps shut and tape the corners.
-Don’t declare a value over $20, and be general with customs declarations (i.e. “personal hygiene items,” not “perfume”—one of them looks more appealing than the other!)

BTW I most likely pay tax on boxes I recieve so def. keep stuff small and make it sound cheap when declaring.. also.. padded envelopes are less likely to make me pay tax!
