Rickshaws

-Rose Zaman

As the daughter of 2 Bengali immigrants, I have had the opportunity to visit Bangladesh a few times. The last time I went was when I was in 5th grade, and my grandfather and I went to a store and bought these two miniature rickshaws, which are a common form of transportation. I have plenty of memories going on short trips to malls and relatives houses with my mom and aunt. My grandfather has since passed but I appreciate everything I have learned and received from him. Every time I pass by his gifts, such as the rickshaws, I feel connected to Bangladesh and all the memories I made when I was younger.
