BANGLADESH (Dhaka)

My LDR love lives in Bangladesh and I am planning to travel there to marry him. I'll be staying there for at least five years . it is hard to find travel information on Bangladesh as it is not a popular tourist destination. If you live in Bangladesh or have travelled there then please share your experience. I have a few burning questions that I'd like to ask. Thanks in advance !

▪ Is Shahjalal International Airport very busy and is it hard to navigate ?

▪ Does a Canadian citizen need a visa to travel to Bangladesh and how much money does it cost ? (CAD)

▪Is the tap safe to drink or is it best to stick with bottled water ?

▪ Should I brush up on some Bengali or can I get around just fine speaking English ?

▪What does a plane ticket from Winnipeg to Dhaka cost roughly ?

▪ Is it safe for women to roam the streets of Bangladesh by themselves?

▪ Is there a dress code?

▪Is there anything happening in Bangladesh that I should be aware of ?

▪ Do foreign debit/credit cards work in ATMS?

▪ What is the typical cost of food, rent and other expenses per month?

▪ Is there anything about Bangladesh that I should know ?
