Whether negotiating the mind-games of border security services or performing ablutions in a London bathroom, Mohammad Chowdhury's life travelling the world brings daily challenges.

Border Crossings takes you on a thrilling ride from the city of minarets to the heights of picture-perfect skyscrapers. A journey of finding one's own identity, Border Crossings is the story of a British born, Bangladeshi man of Muslim faith, trying to reconcile his western and eastern identities and the inconsistencies between the two.

As a nation of border crossers, hustling our way through days and nights negotiating one cultural micro-adjustment after another, Chowdhury's story reflects our own struggles to find a place where we truly belong.
