As a foreigner

Certainly there are, but foreigner is still rare in Bangladesh.
People are not used to see us.

So, what do I encounter?

1. people stare at me.
you can feel like you are a famous person.
People look at you, children follow you, with curiosity.

Look at me.....
Watch me........

Stare at me.......
Observe me....
2. people doubt if I am Bangladeshi....
Some people ask me not my nationality, but
"Are you Bangladeshi......?"
in doubt.
I answered,
"Yes, Bangladeshi."
They doesn't seem convinced, but suspiciously kept looking at me.
Or.....children point out me, saying
"American!!"
A shop staff asked me
"German?"

That's interesting opinion....?
So, "foreigner" can be something unknown, curious thing in Bangladesh.
