Ranohira
may seem very far away to us - but why not letting ourselves be enchanted and open our heart to the people of Ranohira in the south of Madagascar? May it be in visiting on 19 September 2011 the charity concert at "Le Divan du Monde" in Paris, or with a donation - to contribute to the project of "The Gardens of Light...
