161/365.

Dhaka. Day One.

What is the most appropriate thing for a girl to do in a new city? Go shopping, of course!
Here we found some batik fabric makers showing off their skill and art with beautiful designs and techniques.




My New Target.

And this will be Kroger.

160/365.

Arrived.

Exhausted from travel and time zone delirium, this was the only shot I could muster today.
Seeing a cat within the first few hours of my arrival should have been a sign that more were to come...

159/365.

Almost there...

Today I was in Indiaaaa (said like Sarah, from The Little Princess).


On this final flight into Dhaka, I watched the sun rise over the delta...

..and studied (literally) how to exit Dhaka airport.


Here she is: my home for the next six months. :)

158/365.

Losing a day...

Today I board a plane and travel forward in time to land in Asia after many hours in the air.

157/365.

New York City.

My journey across the world starts today.


156/365.

Today I said some final goodbyes.

Yogurt and a mall trip with Hutlas.


I'm gonna miss these people...

155/365.

The time nears.

Today I enjoyed some of my farewell gifts:

A treasure box of notes and photos from my most dearly loved ones to bring with me on my journey.


Some beautifully presented educational material about my destination.


Scenes of my family.





What immeasurable gifts...
