On the 17th of May 2003 I departed for Bangladesh. The reason I was
making this journey was for my uncle’s wedding. The day I departed it
was unexpectedly dull and chilly. I was excited because it would be
the first time I was travelling to Bangladesh, where I would also meet
my cousins from America. The journey was expected to take twenty-five
hours, because my destination was about a ten hours drive from the
Bangladesh International Airport, My uncle was going to meet me at the
airport. I had only seen photos of my uncle so I was worried whether I
would recognize him, but when I saw my uncle, I recognized him
straight away because he looked like a lot like my father.
Coincidentally he was also wearing similar clothes as to those in the
photograph. My uncle was of medium build, quite tall, with long black
hair and dark in complexion. He was very happy to see me because he
had never met me before.
The environment and surroundings were very different from England; it
was very hot and humid. It was also very different from how I imagined
it. The climate and environment was like a mixture of Africa and the
Amazon, where there were occasional jungles and open dry lands.
My uncle had a car waiting outside the airport, the driver loaded my
luggage into the car. I sat in the car, which was like a furnace. The
amazing thing was that all the windows were closed and the driver was
sitting there quite comfortably. Before I could ask why he had all the
windows closed, my uncle remarked ‘Don’t open the windows, it’ll just
let more heat in’. It sounded amusing to me. I did not want to disobey
my uncle at that instance so I tried opening the window a little after
he fell asleep. When I opened the window so much hot air entered the
car I felt like the car was about to take-off, so I immediately closed
it.
