Where Are You ?

In case you were afraid to ask, here is information about where we are living.Bangladesh is tucked into the far eastern portion of India sharing only a small portion of its border with Burma. Bangladesh is almost entirely composed of a huge river delta. The river delta is made up of the confluence of two major rivers: the Ganges (or Padma) and the Brahmaputra. Consequently, it is very flat and very fertile and often has trouble with flooding in periods of high rainfall.

We are living in the city of Rangpur, which has a population of a few hundred thousand. Rangpur is located in the northwestern part of the country about a 6-7 hour drive from the capital, Dhaka. It experiences less of the trouble with flooding and cyclones than other parts of the country.

We are still learning about the area, so I'm sure we will have more information in the future, but for now, at least anyone can point to where we are on a map.
