Default 7 things young foreigners are likely to do in Dhaka!!

Just found this blog recently and thought I can share!! Interesting!!

================================================== ============




Start a blog. Your blog will possibly include a description of your arrival at Dhaka airport and will mention humidity, people and humidity. Your blog will probably include a description of your first night in Bangladesh. Once the “newness” of the experience wears off, your blog posts will consist of rants, observations of cockroaches, traffic, street cows, rickshaws, spitting, and your longing for a selection of more than three beers. These posts will probably serve no purpose to humanity.


Likelihood: 10 percent will start a blog. One percent will write something of worth.


Get a big f*ck-off camera. Somewhat related to the blog thing: you want to record your experience of Bangladesh. What better way to do so than spending half of your lifetime income on an extremely specialized, complex piece of ubertechnology? You will probably never venture into the realm of “not Auto mode”, and you will probably bring it out only when you’re sh*t-faced at some party, that Guide Tours boat trip, or that one time you ventured outside your apartment to take photos of stuff on the streets of Dhaka until you realized the gathering crowd just wasn’t worth the hassle.


Likelihood: 20 percent will get a big f*ck-off camera. Two percent will take at least one worthy photo.


Play tennis at least once. This one is actually reserved primarily for young foreigners who join an expat club in Dhaka. You will either persevere, or, far more likely, you will give up due to humidity or the old guys on the other side of the net who kick your *** every time you muster up the energy to get on the court. The several hundred dollars you spent on a racket, racket bag, wristbands and headbands will turn your one tennis experience into the most expensive hour of entertainment in your life.


Likelihood: Thirty percent will play tennis at least once. Three percent will play more than once.

Interesting.

Definitely what they won't like to do is driving in busy streets of DHK.
