Bangladesh

Hey friends. I am back on this side of the globe. I spent last week in Bangladesh in preparation to build a hospital in Chittagong. I had originally been planning to move to Bangladesh at the beginning of the year, but the trip has been postponed until mid-year. There is a lot of work to be done between now and then!

I spent most of my trip in meetings, but here are some photos of my adventures:











Arrived 36 hours, no sleep.

Showered. 48 hours no sleep for any of us...go team













Dinner after our presentation to the board. Totally rocked it!

Listening and taking notes at a government hospital











The maternity ward
The delivery room












Rickshaws were EVERYWHERE
The market










Visiting the site of the nursing school.

Locals watching the c
razy whities

The locals brought Grace and I coconuts. I think I am going to like it here.
