Madagascar links:

www.wildmadagascar.org - Probably my favorite site, this explains a lot of the environmental problems facing Madagascar, and has great pictures of lemurs and chameleons.

The World Factbook - General stuff about Madagascar

Cortez Travel - A traveler's guide to all things Malagasy.

From other PC Madagascar groups:

A picture from a PCV's blog - I love this picture, and I'll thank this guy for borrowing it if/when I see him. It's a map of Madagascar, and each pin represents a volunteer. Click on the picture for the enormous version.

Amanda - This is the girl from Atlanta that I had a brief correspondence with about what to bring and whatnot.

Random other PC blogs from people I don't know:

Clare, Senegal - I had to link this. It's too organized and well written not to.

Kwang, Malawi - When I was sure I was going to Malawi, I found his blog and LOVED that he copy-pasted the lyrics to Kelly Clarkston's Break Away. Strangely enough, I think about him whenever it comes on the radio. So weird. Oh, also, this link is important because my friend Sabrina is going to Malawi in May 2007!

Other:

Robin - A friend from GSU

Jennifer - A friend from GSU

Brendan - A cousin on my Mom's side that I haven't seen in probably almost 20 years. Happens to be in Zambia doing missionary health work on his own dime.

 

Peace Corps links:

http://www.peacecorps.gov/ - The official site.

peacecorps2 yahoo group - This group was absolutely invaluable to me in my application process. You need a yahoo account to join.

Peace Corps: Madagascar - The page on Madagascar from the official gov't site. Pretty general.
