The photos in our Photo Album and quotes below tell the story of the market and street walk about and the initial meeting with the Rotary Club of Dhaka’s Sleeping Children’s (Overseas Volunteer Organization) committee.

| From Bangladesh 2011 |
The impressions: are:
- “Amazingly friendly people just wanting to interact, find out where we were from, use a Canadian flag pin as their earring and have their picture taken – all without any expectation of money - interesting and refreshing.”
- “We are in the best part of the city and the crumbling infrastructure or lack of it is surprising – power outages numerous times a day are the norm.”
- “The Rotarian members are passionate and committed about Sleeping Children. They welcomed us at the airport at 4 AM and are friendly and inclusive to the new members of the team”

Dhaka is a city so different than one we are used to with 15 million citizens living with very high density land use.
