I spent my time almost in the village house when i was young. I have only one younger brother but twelve cousins. We spent our time together happily. When I was 7 years old, my father transferred to another town. I am very happy for new place but really sad for my cousins.
We traveled by boat first and then we take a bus to reach this town. On the way, we went through two tunnels and we slept at night on the road because security gate not allowed to pass through between 6 pm to 6 am. The town lie between the border of Myanmar and Bengal. 95 percent of citizens are Bengali and reminded are Rakhine and barmar. This town is called Moungdaw. Most citizens are very rich because they are merchants. At nigh,we can see adjacent city of Bengal under the electric light. We can travel to Bengal by boat along the Net river.
When I was 10 years old, my mother and I visited to adjancent city of Bengal. We go together with our neighbor, they can Speak Bengali but we can't. We left at 6am from Moungdaw and arrived at 7am to foreign city. It is borderline small city but the city is very nice. All roads are wide and clean. There are no high rise building in Myanmar at that time but I saw many high rise buildings in this city. We visit around the city by tricycles. On the road, every people looked around us, because they never seen Myanmar's women with longyi. I saw two storied buses on the road, but I never seen this buses untill 2016 in Myanmar. We also visted beautiful six storied hotel and new haspital with beautiful landscape.
And we went to market, there are many colorful clothes. And we bought beautiful carpets and clothes . And then my mother bought beautiful earrings and necklaces for me. Moreover, We bought some pots and sweets for my brother.. We visited all day and we came back to Myanmar at 4 pm. Now I am 39 years old, I forgot the name of city but I never forgot this trip.
