Austria

During my 2024 trip, I traveled from Prague to Vienna, Austria, by FlixBus, and this visit was especially memorable as I was fasting that day. Upon arriving in Vienna, I met Mahabub Vai, a faculty member at NUST (Bangladesh) and currently a PhD student at Corvinus University in Hungary. He was in the city for […]

Czech Republic

In 2024, I had one of the most unplanned trips of my life — a visit to Prague, the beautiful capital of the Czech Republic.

Germany

I visited Germany twice, first in February 2024 and then in April 2025. I visited Aachen City and Singen City during these two visits.

Though short, my stay in Leuven was meaningful, and the experience left a lasting impression on my academic journey and personal growth. It was […]
