No more masquerade…

A mask is more than an objet d'art made by the able hands of an artisan, hung on the walls of an atelier or an uptown art shop for the connoisseurs to rave, the critic to piece passionate reviews about, sending kudos to the artist, appreciating creative exuberance at its finest!

For the mother in you

The first few weeks have passed in a rush and finally you have settled into a happy camaraderie with your little one. The initial wave of overwhelming baby duties has finally subsided and you sort of know your way around your baby now.

The Minimalist Living

How many things can you live without? I asked myself not once, but many times. And every time I asked myself, a voice in my head answered, “You can live without most of the things you own right now!”

An Asian success story?

Much was expected prior to the Chinese President's visit to Bangladesh, and surely enough, he did not disappoint. The milestone visit — the first to Bangladesh by a Chinese President in 30 years — was capped off by the largest ever pledge of assistance to Bangladesh by any single country.

Missing home in Ramadan

While some of us still prepare ‘chhola’, ‘peyaju’, ‘beguni’ and lemonade to break our fasts, others do not. We drag our drowsy selves from the bed to eat the early morning meal, yet it does not feel the same. Fasting in a foreign country is a different experience altogether.
