Where is the guesthouse?

Goodmorning Bed & BreakfastFor a number of years the 'Goodmorning Bed & Breakfast', located in Bonani, has been a safe haven for visitors from many different countries.  The guesthouse was suppose to be a training facility for young underprivilegde youth in Dhaka, and run by the Vialisa Foundation. However due to sickness of the founder of the foundation, the guesthouse had to close it's doors. An honest attempt to keep the guesthouse alive on a different location, with a legal status and a different management, turned out to be an idealistic, but impossible task.

So I decided to use this website for all you people who are planning to visit Bangladesh and can use some real life information about this city. I hope you find it usefull and if you do, please share and spread the word! We thank the people who have supported us and trusted us to be their host during their stay in crazy Dhaka.


Just another surprising moment

Not an uncommon picture

When I was walking from Gulshan 2 to Gulshan 1, I observed a rikshaw driver who was stopped by the police because he was driving his rikshaw on the main road, which was not allowed at that time of day.

 

 I first took a photo of the rikshaw, which was put into a position that would make it impossible for the driver to do his job. Then the driver sat next to his rikshaw and in the he dcided to lay down for a while.... Well, that's what I thought.

 

Just sitting

Truth is that the heat\ got to the guy and he just passed out. It took some time before people (including me) realised this and I just took another photo.... how stupid...I know.  Anyway, the guy was given some water and after that the policeman who stopped him decided to let him go.

 

Is he dead?
