Reflection

On Thursday we had a guess speaker, Mr.John Golden. He talked about his time in Bangladesh and the Peace Corp. Before the conference about Bangladesh I use to think that Bangladesh was scary and full of extremists. But actually Bangladesh was full of nice people and we should not judge a book by it's cover. I learned that in Bangladesh it is the #1 country that has Dengue Fever, and that is why Mr. John has to use a mosquito net. In Bangladesh, there are ponds everywhere. Bangladesh is very hot and he very hard to breathe because of it's pollution. Bangladesh is less strict about covering your head and what you should wear. Bangladesh is a 94% Muslim community. Bangladesh people are very nice, even though they are poor they would invite us in to have lunch with them. In Bangladesh Mr.John teaches at the P.T.I.-Primary Teaching Institute. At there Mr.John teaches adults to teach primary students. Once his students asked him that did he ever took a bath. he actually did but he took it in a bath, not in a pond where is it not private. In the first 3 months Mr.John lived with his host family. He lived there for 20 months, he was suppose to live there for 7 more months but back at the US, there was an extremist who drove a plane to the twin tower and killed around 3000 citizens so Mr.John had to retrieve back to the US.
