Day 1: Arriving In Kabul (extreme travel) - Afghanistan Under Taliban 🇦🇫

Since I started to travel and explore Asia, Afghanistan has always been my dream country. The movies I have watched and the books I have read about Afghanistan have built dreamy expectations in my head of the country that I would not be able to experience anywhere else. My visit did not disappoint - Afghanistan was time travel from bustling & unorganized bazaars, street shaves, same clothing in different colors, no brands, magnificent landscapes, and the bravest people with the biggest hearts of hospitality. In my trip, we covered Mazar-i-Sharif, Kabul & Bamyan. Visiting Afghanistan is a sensitive topic for many people. As in any country I go to, the main objective is to share the day-to-day life and spotlight the ordinary people that the mass media fail to capture. No matter how you feel about my trip, here is my summary. Despite facing significant challenges, Afghanistan has many positive aspects that deserve recognition: diverse landscapes, rich history, warm hospitality, delicious cuisine, resilient people, and more! Safety: This was the biggest concern of many people I have talked to, and naturally, that has been the main worry when you enter a war-torn country over the last 40 years. With the takeover of the Taliban, the country is much safer than before; at least no conflicts are going on. My Persian surname, which is the same as the current supreme leader of the Taliban, my cultural background, being a man with a +3 years long beard, and looking like one of the locals do not qualify me to talk about safety much when it comes to being a tourist. I had a significant advantage, considering the above. Disclaimer: This is not a travel advisory. Afghanistan has a government that has not been recognized by any country, with no embassies and international relations. I am a professional traveler who explored the country with an organized guide.

My heart goes out to the women and young girls in that country.

Hope a good life Afgan people , more respect and freedom for thr women

For the next instalment, we’ll have a woman travelling in her own as a tourist to Afghanistan…should be exciting

I did several deployments to Afghanistan. This is heartwarming to see the human side of this beautiful country. Thank you for these videos.

I am watching you from the UK, and I am from Afghanistan. When I am watching you with this interpreter, I appreciate him the most, whatever he is telling in your background for the people in my language is all for your benefit that makes me proud, he is trying his best to show you we (Afghans) are nice, fair, and welcoming.

I love traveling but its highly unlikely that I’ll be able to visit Afghanistan so thank you for showing me what it would be like.

As an American, I'd love to visit Afghanistan. I'd also love to visit Iran. To bad governments get in the way of the people and make it hard for us to coexist, enjoy each other as people, and experience cultures outside of our own. Much love to all of the people of Afghanistan.

Damn … not going to lie, doesn’t seem like a spot I would travel to.

not only are you a world traveller but you also make this world a better place,if more travellers can be like you ,this world will be a far better place. I take my hat off to you, a golden heart. I had two azerbaijan friends who studied with me in KL one was Kamal and the other mehdi. great guys ,greetings from CT.

Thank you so much for giving us more views on Afghanistan 🇦🇫. When I saw the title and flag I clicked so fast. I love your tour guide I saw how they're protecting you in the first video even from their own 😊 but I cannot forget the humanity...God bless you richly dear. Am loving Afghanistan vlogs

Shows that worldwide people are basically the same, food, shelter, commerce, travel.

Afghanistan is one of those countries that I really want to visit before I die. Growing up, I always heard bad things because of the war, but after seeing it through a different lens (you, Bald and Bankrupt) I really feel like I need to see it for myself.

Thank u so much davud for showing us and sharing the beauty of places we can't go to like Afghanistan. We wish Afghanistan to develop more.much love from srilanka.we adore u very much and God bless .From the whole world the most kind people exist in Afghanistan and we saw it because of u.❤🇱🇰🇱🇰❤ love you
