  Bangladesh, Bhutan & Myanmar ( 2002-2004)

    

 

 

 

   

 

From 2002 until 2004 I lived in Dhaka, Bangladesh and was able to travel quite a bit around the region. I visited Bhutan in Feb. of 2004 stopping at Thimpu, Paro and a few other places. It was a pretty expensive trip, but we did get a discount on the visa and only had to pay $150 usd per day. Some tour companies charge over $250 usd, per day, to visit Bhutan.

      I made it over to Myanmar A.K.A Burma, in summer of 2003. It was an amazing trip, and one of the friendliest places that I have ever been. The Bagan ruins are incredible and pretty untouched. Bagan was a very peaceful area and there were hardly any tourists when we were there. We did have a problem with getting money though, since credit cards are not accepted anywhere in the country, but everything worked out in the end.
