Patuakhali Field Visit






Our group of new volunteers spilt up this past weekend to go to two different field sites. Each group was hosted by current field volunteer. Four of us headed down south to the Khulna district town of Patuakhali. I would like to be able to describe every last detail- but am unable to for to capture the essence of the journey would take volumes. Some highlights though included tea with the captain of our ferry ride (the longest of three ferry rides to get to our site); a late night ride in tom-tom (hard to truly explain); and hordes of people everywhere we went. As some more time passes I will be able write in greater detail all the thoughts that are swimming around my head. For now enjoy a few pictures from the journey.
