Is Bangladesh the Most Hospitable Country in the World? Spending time with my friend Mitul's family in Rajshahi and Naogaon, I share my experience living with a Bangladeshi family in the north of the country.

I'm Jason, a full-time British Travel Vlogger and KZbinr who's been to 61 countries. I've been travelling around the world full-time since 2017.
I have travel series' from many of the world's best (and least) known destinations. I filmed the first vlogs on my channel in the summer of 2016 after spending a year living in China. A proper solo trip around Eastern Europe followed after graduating from University in the summer of 2017, taking me to Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, North Macedonia and Kosovo. This marked the start of my efforts to turn vlogging into a full-time job.
After that European trip I explored much of Asia: visiting India, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Pakistan, the Philippines, South Korea and Kazakhstan.
I have also travelled to North Africa and the Middle East fairly extensively over the last five years, filming videos in Turkey, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Israel and Palestine.
I've travelled to North America just once as a KZbinr, visiting Mexico in 2021. Though I have been to both the USA and Canada, this was as a child on family holidays.
In 2022, I took my first trip to Sub Saharan Africa, visiting Kenya and Tanzania, before heading to the Middle East, stopping in Dubai and Lebanon. Europe followed, covering both the Greek and Turkish sides of Cyprus, and afterwards going back to Italy for the second time to cover Milan and Sicily. I then visited the Caribbean for the first time, covering the Dominican Republic, before heading to both Brussels and Amsterdam, then covering Taiwan and the Philippines in Asia. I finished off the year with a trip around Morocco.
I started my travels in 2023 by finally visiting Paris, taking the Eurostar from London. I then headed over to Qatar for a few days, before heading to Asia, with videos following from India, Singapore, Taiwan, Japan, Mongolia, Thailand and Sumatra (Indonesia). I began 2024 by revisiting Bangladesh.

Hey Jason. I'm from UK, currently in Sylhet, Bangladesh, observing Ramadan. If you visit Sylhet again, I'd be thrilled to host you for a day with my family. We'll take care of everything - food, travel, you name it! Honestly, it will be a pleasure.

Mr Jason, do you feel sorry for the atrocitites and barbaric tortures rendered to People Of Bengal, now Bangladesh and West Bengal, Assam in India over 200 years of occupation by UK and leaving the land parched and its prople in skin and bone? Please have a pleasant stay.

To answer the question in the video’s title: Yes. And Bangladeshi food is also among the best in the world (and criminally underrated). (I am from India, not Bangladesh, in case anyone thinks I am biased.) 😄😄

But I'm out here in Australia missing BD food 🥲 Best of luck and try to attend wedding ceremony if you get the chance. Hope you get to eat Mutton kacchi biriyani made with chinigura rice (Not bashmati). That is the real biriyani of BD

[@ArnavSinha2681]

@@IASrabon Ah, I can appreciate how much you must be missing home food. I did try mutton kacchi biryani and with chinigura rice. I had done a lot of research before going, so tried a lot of the most recommended stuff. You are right - the biryani with basmati is nothing in front of those delicious small grains. Will try to get an invitation to a wedding ceremony next time 😁

[@asadrana8046]

Its okay sister.we all are bengali whatever we are muslim or hundu.the first identity is we are bengali.we were the most smart rich and peace lover nation in indian subcontinent before British. The one thing hurts me that before separation of india our political leaders wanted the independence of united bengal and British were ready to declare bengal independence. But some main hindu leaders from west bengal opposed the deal and thats why bengal couldn't get independence. Later pakistan and then Bangladesh.

[@IftekarAlamMunna]

Bangladesh is a country full of love and hospitality. No matter what country you are from, they will try to get their best to give you company.

Most of the foreigners mistake that when they visit Bangladesh, they usually Don't have a tourist guide or a known friend like you...that's why they could not enjoy the culture & hospitality I would recommend every foreigners that when you are visting bangladesh.. Please try to have a tourist guide or known firend or a subscriber to help you to find the perfect spot & food Otherwise it is quite difficult

[@Comfortably0]

Thanks for the amazing content Billam! I'm an old subscriber of your channel back when I was in my city Dhaka. Now, living for over year in the UK as a foreign student from Bangladesh, this fills my heart with both joy and sadness. The hospitality of Bangladeshi people out weighs any first world nation where people are individualistic and formal. This shows it doesn't matter how rich you are, having loved ones in your life is as important as having a successful career.

In the U.K you would have to ask the BAME, in Bangladesh all the indigenous people( the 11 tribes) plus the Hindus, Christians, Buddhists. They would be able to depict the true picture of racism in a country. If you ask a white person in the U.K about the negligence faced on a daily basis by a member of the BAME community, they would have no idea as they have never had to face this in their life.
