A fuller picture of Bangladeshi New York

As I mentioned earlier a few posts earlier that a friend of mine managed to get some ghost shot of Bengali capital of USA. Here is how they look in the daytime. The big apple had been favorite destination as a starting point for almost all the alien nations making their roots to the wild west. The matter of fact same applied for the Bangladeshi community.

To all my surprise I found someone who had taken the trouble of taking detailed photograph of Bangladeshi community of New York especially of everyone's favorite hang around Jackson Heights. With his permission I'm sharing some of the photos with you lot as well. I'm giving the link to his flickr stream and his blog as well. Quite a few interesting stories to be told as well.

Long gone the days of the Roman Empire but the strong economic and financial power Italy still survives. Past two decades seen an unprecedented flow of immigrants from Bangladesh to Italy. Scattered all over the country doing mostly physical labors and street side trades. Good luck champions.

Chestnut Guy
I love peanuts all the way. That used to be my tiffin most of my school days. On the same way we see chestnut guys in London all the time specially in summer. But for no reason this chestnut guy in Rome made me feel sad....

You'd be surprised if you'd have asked him how much money he's invested to come to the country
