Bangladesh
I'm not going. My friend Hannah is. She is almost a doctor and will be providing medical care for folks in areas up in the mountains. Very remote. No electricity. She's tough.
So, I was reading about Bangladesh in order to help myself vicariously engage in the journey. Did you know that Bangladesh is the most densely populated country in the world, and 85% of the popluation is NOT in urban centers! And the political unrest they've experienced since 1971 when they separated from Pakistan is pretty unnerving. She's a brave girl.
So then I thought, maybe I should go there, too, someday! I wonder if they speak mandarin. Yeah. I doubt it.
