Dhaka

I arrived at the Dhaka airport around noon. After waiting in line for several hours to pass immigration I walked outside and my glasses immediately fogged up. The humidity was unreal. Then a swarm of taxi drivers descended on me. Amidst the chaos, I was grabbed up by one of them and whisked away towards the city. What I saw during my trip was incredible, but unsettling. Click on any photo to enlarge.



Traffic was a jarring experience. With seemingly no stoplights or any other form of regulation, cars darted in out and out like the three-man weave.



The visible signs of a poverty stricken nation begin to set in...







That's all for now. It's difficult uploading photos using the current setup, but i'll aim to as frequently as I can.
