On my third day in the Bagerhat disaster area caused by Cyclone Sidr, I teamed up with Nick Downie from Save the Children. We went to a remote region that could only be reached by boat. I brought some blankets (which I bought with my own money) to give away to the poorest of the poor. In addition, we also collected water samples from various areas to see if water filters could be attached to provide clean water for the locals.
