I couldn’t have asked for a better first week of fieldwork!

I couldn’t have asked for a better first week of fieldwork. However, it sure has been a roller coaster of emotions. The landscape here is tough. And by tough I mean a four hour hike through forest, over mountains and through more forest, to get to one transect. However, it is beautiful – a rolling landscape of savanna, likely not what one expects when they think of Madagascar.
