Sunday, September 27, 2009. Moving on - new site. I realize I have left this blog to sit for longer than expected. The absence of postings is a result of me taking the time to shift my photography blog into a new space. With that I am excited to say the new blog is up an running. You can find it by clicking here. This is, therefore, my last posting to Floating Planet! Thank you one and all for following my first blog. I look forward to your comments and insights on the new version.

The story of my journey from privilege and partying in Oxford, to volunteering in rural Bangladesh. My home away from home, is a small town in Dinajpur district, north-western Bangladesh. It has a population of about 350 000 people, including a significant minority of indigenous communities. A major railway junction during the colonial era, it is now more of a sleepy backwater, dotted with crumbling red-brick bungaloes, where buffaloes are more common than cars.
