My name is Alvi. I live in Dhaka, but my family is from Chilmari in Kurigram. My grandmother and many of my relatives still live there. Last June, I went to visit my grandmother, my uncle and cousins in Chilmari. Their house is near the Jamuna River.
My uncle is a fisherman. My grandfather was a fisherman, but he died about 10 years ago. I didn’t know him. When my sister and I visited Chilmari in June, we had so much fun! Our grandmother told us stories about our family and about the history of Bangladesh.
My uncle caught a lot of fish. My favourite fish is “Chapila.” It is thin, white fish. It’s delicious! We helped our grandmother make the fish every night. We also made rice and vegetables.
It was a very special trip. We talked with our relatives and learned about our family and our country. We also sang song together.
