Wasfia to return home Saturday
Wasfia Nazreen, the second Bangladeshi woman to conquer Mount Everest, is all set to return to Dhaka on Saturday instead of the earlier scheduled Friday.
She will be taking a flight of Biman Bangladesh Airlines from Kathmandu and hopes to land in Dhaka around 12:40pm on Saturday, Wasfia told The Daily Star over phone yesterday.
Upon her arrival, the mountaineer is scheduled to visit the capital's Rayerbazar killing field to pay tribute to the country's martyred freedom fighters.
Wasfia has already received the certificate from the Mountaineering Division under the Ministry of Tourism in Nepal for her feat.
She launched her Everest expedition on March 26 under a campaign titled 'Bangladesh on Seven Summits' supported by the Liberation War Museum of Bangladesh. She reached the summit on May 26.
