So, my good friend “Jen” is in the Peace Corps and is stationed in Madagascar right now.
It’s true: I’m not doing anything with my life.
Anyway, we have this awesome app that lets us use a wifi signal to call/text each other, which is insane… because she’s in Madagascar and we shouldn’t be able to do that (plus, do that have wifi over there? I’m ignorant.)
Not the point. Jen was texting me about her awesome life of teaching people about water sanitation and stuff, when she informed me that she was seeing someone who was also stationed down there.
Me: What?!? Tell me everything!
Jen: He’s amazing, but currently working 12 hours away from me, so that’s a bummer.
Me: How often do you get to see each other?
Jen: Haha, funny question. So I met him a then we had a week together. Then he went to the moust southern part of the country and is working with an organization down there for a month and then he’s being relocated to… well, we don’t know where yet because there was literally an axe murderer in his old town so he may be moving close to me soon, but we won’t find out until Monday!
Me: Weirdest. Love story. Ever.
So yeah… apparently that’s a thing that’s totally normal in Madagascar, which was not included in the documentary I saw with all those adorable animated animals voiced by Chris Rock.
So… I feel misled.
