Konglak hill - The highest point of Sajek Valley aka the Queen of Hills! *One of the major attractions of Sajek Valley is seeing the sunrise & sunset from Konglak hill. The hill is suited in the north of Chittagong Hill Tracts- Bangladesh, is about 400 feet but the valley is around 2000 feet from the sea level. That ensures getting the best mountain view with greenery and an unadulterated combination of clouds.* It takes 30-40 minutes of tracking to reach the top of the…

The architectural beauty of the Community Village's Sanatorium (resort). *What could be a perfect hideaway from city life and have a relaxed weekend or spend a few days surrounded by nature than this?

Gardening - My FEEL GOOD Way. Taking care of the plants is the only escape from the hustle and bustle of this city life. *My son's school exam is going on. We are not stressed out but the work schedule has changed a bit because of the exam and study routine. I'm not getting any time to spend on my garden for a few days. And that's actually stressing me out more than the exams. lol* I was thinking to plant some Culantro/spiny coriander for a few days and finally today, I got…

What could be better than a walk in the Mountain? This was the walk I have dreaming of for a long while! *I had the opportunity to explore the mountain a few days ago.

But farming becoming more challenging day by day.* *Drought-affected land* We own some farmland in our countryside but we don't have a direct connection with…

Beautiful Greylag Geese swimming on the pond. Goose scares me. Probably because I have many encounters with them when I was a child. But they are undoubtedly beautiful creatures! A few days ago, while visiting a park I found some graylag goose was gently swimming on the pond. They were not making any noises, just calming going around; it feels so peaceful to see them. This is the pond. Isn't it beautiful? *We walk around the whole pond, there were a few benches to seat down…

What a day, what a day! We are relocating our house for the second time. If you ever shift your house, you know how much the work is. On top of everything, living in one dwelling and settling in another comes with some emotional ups & downs too. I was too sure to live in our current house for another few years. But some things have changed, we are admitting our son to a renowned school and it's better to choose a place near the location. We have been searching for a home for…

Do you want to be a bird for a day? ***Tareng*** *was one of the best places on my last trip to the mountain. The place is significant for its view. This mountain top is on Alutila Hill of Khagrachari, about 1000 feet high. Standing at this place and looking at the horizon, it seems like the sky has merged with the mountains. The rolling mountains and the spiraling Chengi River in the distance instantly captivate your mind.* The place is well maintained by Bangladesh Army,…
