Hi, I was offered a job in Dhaka and I was wondering how is it to live around?

How are the clubs, is the nightlife good, there are a lot of young expats?

Thanks

Hello there,

I am also moving to Dhaka soon for work and I have heard that the night-life is somewhat limited, even for Westerners. The advice I have continuously heard (and I will have to see if it remains true) is that you can generally find fun things to do at Embassy's and clubs (particularly the American and Norwegian Clubs), where drinking is allowed (though is expensive) and there are Westerners and so forth.

That's certainly one type of fun, but as for more indigenous, local ways to enjoy Dhaka, I really don't know. I'm excited to find out, though!
