My nationality is Malagasy. I was born in Port-Bergé in 1997 and that is where I live. I have three sisters and one brother and I am the youngest. When I was a little boy I liked to be with my dad. My dad wanted me to be intelligent so he taught me the story of Madagascar, the news he heard from the radio and television, Malagasy traditions, and the alphabet. I tried to ask him how to become famous like someone on the radio. I repeated the question and then he sent me to school when I was seven. When I came to the school, a teacher asked me, “where did you study before you came here?” I replied that my dad taught me in our house. The first time I went to school I already knew the alphabet because my Dad taught me it before. Unfortunately, there is no English in our school program so I didn’t speak English or French, just Malagasy. At this time, I would really like to speak more foreign languages like English and French. I am no longer discouraged because there is no problem that has no solution. My dad is my hero because he taught me everything. He wants me to be a journalist and to have a lot of knowledge about the world. I want to study abroad all over the world.
