Still, we enjoyed a full moonlit night with the river blows which was amazing. After four days rest, we prepared to go to a new field in Chandpur, which is known for being abundant with fish.\u00a0 Above all, I like to describe my happy moments, however, I think I hold this memory in the corner of my heart.\u00a0 Thanks to RMMRU for this excellent trip, I eagerly await the next opportunity.<\/p>\n<p> <p class=\"wpsm-hide\" style=\"color: #cc0000; font-size: 100%; text-align: left;\"> show less<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Shihab Nowadays, migration and climate change are talked about regularly.
