Hillside Resort in the Bandarban

More than a week ago, a group of us went on a long weekend trip to the Bandarban. This is a forested, hilly region of Bangladesh on the Burma border. It was so good to get into the fresh air, amongst the greenery and away from the crowds of staring people.
Here's some pictures of the resort we stayed at: Hillside Resort

Our "home" for the weekend

What a view! This is from the verandah outside the restaurant at the Hillside Resort.

Going on holidays

At the end of this week I am off on holidays for almost 2 months, a chance to get out of Bangladesh for a while. I'm heading back to Morocco and also hopefully southern Spain, so if you want an update go to my Morocco blog: Moroccan Meanderings at http://moroccanmeanderings.blogspot.com/ .

Will I miss Bangladesh?
Getting stuck in traffic - no
Being continually stared at - no
Not being able to have a wine with my restaurant meal - no
The electricity cuts - no
The heat and humidity - humidity no, but I'll be heating to hotter or as hot of a place
Work - no it is nice to have a break
My apartment - maybe

Anyway, I'll be back in August, hopefully totally refreshed and ready for another working year!
