After almost 6 months living in Bangladesh, I left BD in 1 quickly week. When the visa issue was “solve” I had 7 days to leave the country. And I was happy! After 6 months in that country, I was tired. Bangladesh is definitely not an easy country to live and maybe till now, I am asking myself what I was looking there. Absolutely, my Ogilvy’s experience was great! Had the opportunity to work in a company that has a “name” in Advertise was great and I hope with can give me more opportunities in the future! But, the full experience in BD was different. The work is an important part of AIESEC experience, but personal life is important. This is a way to balance life. So maybe, cuz that, I cried so much when I left Dhaka. I left especial people there. Even I was tired of poverty, poor quality of life, AIESEC problems and a big list of more problems… I left especial people where I was my home for the last 6 months!
I was happy when the immigration police allowed me to leave, I was crossing finger when he was handing my passport, but I was sad. I was sad to say bye. And even knowing that “we always can meet twice” people that we loved, that time was a good-bye. For my roommates I hope it was a shortly good-bye, cuz now, that I am at Kuala Lumpur waiting for a possible backpacker trip with my them. But for the others, I don’t know… I still not sure what I realized in BD for my life, but I am sure that I found especial people. I also hope, that especial people keep me in their hearts for a long time, I hope that especial people remember me not only cuz the BD environment make us friends, I hope they remember me for what I am or what I were for them. There is still some many things in my mind, in some way I miss BD. Probably, cuz I miss whom I left there.
In the other hand, I don’t know how I lived in BD for so long time! Kuala Lumpur is nice; it is definatly a “city”. I don’t need wear scarfs all time, and it is easy find “white people” on the street and there is no people standing to watch u! A big city with nice places to go! NICE food! AMAZING coffee! OW, how I missed that life style! Travel, be free, walk, have good moments…
After a scared first-moments here, now things are more calm. :]
I should say “Thanks BD!” to introduce me for many especial people and be glad for this. And be happy for this opportunity to travel. I hope, it will be a good good trip! :]
