A Journey by Boat
A journey by boat is always an enjoyable and refreshing experience, especially in a riverine country like Bangladesh. Last month, I had the chance to go on a boat journey from my village to my uncle’s house, which is about ten kilometers away. It was a sunny morning, and the sky was clear. The river was calm, and the gentle breeze made the journey more pleasant.
We started our journey at 9 a.m. in a small country boat. There were five of us – my parents, my younger sister, and I, along with the boatman. As the boat moved slowly, I enjoyed watching the green fields, trees, and small huts along the riverbanks. Fishermen were catching fish, and children were bathing and playing in the water.
The sounds of birds and the splashing of water created a peaceful environment. I felt very close to nature. On the way, we saw other boats carrying goods and people. Some boats were motorized, while others were like ours, moving with the help of oars.
After about two hours, we reached my uncle’s house. The journey was smooth and memorable. I took some photos and captured videos to keep the memories alive.
In conclusion, the boat journey gave me great joy and a break from the busy life. It helped me appreciate the natural beauty of our country. I will never forget that peaceful ride, and I hope to enjoy more boat journeys in the future.

A Journey by Boat – A Peaceful Experience
Bangladesh
is known for its rivers, and a journey by boat is one of the most peaceful and
refreshing experiences one can enjoy here. Today, I want to share a recent boat
journey that gave me joy and helped me connect with nature in a special way.
Last month,
I visited my uncle’s village, which is about ten kilometers from my own.
Instead of taking a bus or rickshaw, we chose to travel by boat. It was a sunny
morning with a clear sky — the perfect day for a boat ride!
Our small
country boat set off around 9 a.m. There were five of us on board: my parents,
my younger sister, and me, along with the boatman. As we slowly moved forward,
I enjoyed the beautiful sights — green fields, trees, and little houses on the
riverbanks. Children were playing in the water, fishermen were busy catching
fish, and birds were flying overhead.
The sound of
the water and the cool breeze made everything feel calm and relaxing. On the
way, we saw other boats carrying goods and people. Some were powered by
engines, but ours was moved by oars, which made it feel even more traditional
and close to nature.
After two
peaceful hours, we reached my uncle’s house. I took some photos and videos to
keep the memory alive.
This simple
journey reminded me how beautiful our country is. I encourage everyone to
experience a boat journey at least once — it’s a wonderful way to relax and see
the real beauty of rural Bangladesh.
