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.

I'm glad that they are making their own rules now without any of the western countries Intervening.Who car3s if it's not on pair with the west.Let them build their own country however th3y want

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.

Hey where did you found a guide for the travels?

I gonna be you gonna be , nerelisin atash?

This is one of the reasons some afghans choose to do evil things like steal liltle poor boys to sexually abuse.Women exist in this country but are invisible, unfortunately 😢

The name "TALIBAN" is widely feared here in🇰🇪🤔....in Kenya we also love PILAU🎉🏝🏝🏝🤗🤗

Did anyone ever tell you that you look like RAGNA?

We offer a very beautiful and cozy holiday in the Pamir Mountains with an easy hike and meeting the indigenous peoples.

Hotel was not good for two reasons .
One the portions were very small and there were no naan which is basic in every afghan food but he forgot to give you naan with the side dish which comes with palaw.

No go zone

population of Kabul is around 5 millions

Y u need here a guide.?

Where are the women 😮😢

For all those OBSESSED with us females .. leave us ALONE! We don’t need your concern!

U said biryani is persian food ? 😂
Since they claim all the civilixation of middle east i guess theyve recently stolen this food too
Bcuz when i lived there theyve never heard of it and since afghans in iran made biryani or plov or what ever , they got to know it and they were shoced how tasty it is !
Funny part is that everyone who has nothing, claim to have everything , all the heritage they have in iran has the actual signature of language , architect , art and culture of neighbours.
The teuth about how fake iran is will come out soon , iran was an east indian company project .
All these fake history books are pumped from india aka east india trading company.
Theres so much questionable facts in iran history that nothing about it makes sense ,ur gonna be shocked how many things in iran history is controversial and contradictional , so much that even iran historians have lots of question.
They say for example sasanids conquers certain place, but later we found out sasanids were paying tax for the kings of that certain place.
Or they say this language is persian , but later we found out since the invention of this language it took 600 yrs till iran started using this language meanwhile in other regions it was national language .
Theres so so much things that i cant fit in one or even 10 comments !
The house of iran history cards will finally fall and everybody would know the role of east india trading company that made up this country after fall of ottoman empire

Take a good look. That's what your country looks like after the US & its Poodles leave.

Extreme?why extreme?

I want to travel here one day but I would be scared for my life going there by myself

This doesnt look like a country where 30pc of the population are starving and the economy has collapsed. Am I missing something?

❤❤❤ Afghanistan

You kinda look like a man from web series Viking the Ragnar 😮

Absolutely fascinating. I was living in Pakistan as a 4 year old.

I can tell within the first 5 minutes that your a very impatient person. 😅

I invite you to visit Bangladesh❤❤❤

You are a great traveller, generous, kind and very honest, you are matching Afghans hospitality and generosity 👌😊

Really like the guide ..... very professional.... Congrats Davud...... Your videos are very informative.

Assalamualaikum from 🇮🇩

Peace be upon you.
Seriously, you have the look
As the teacher.

When women populate the streets , schools and universities , shops and restaurants , then we will be able to say that Afghanistan is a beautiful country not now please. Respect for Afghan women.

Fellow Americans don't concern yourselves with middle east countries. You should be more worried about the corrupt Biden regime and his democrat cronies. Leave the middle east to be governed by their rules, laws and religions. America never belonged over there. Osama was trained and educated by the CIA before and during the war with Russia in the 70s. Saddam was given the keys to the city of Detroit to establish an arab American community there. Ho Chi Minh gave the US the opportunity to side with his cause before the Vietnam war. We've been duped by our own government for decades. You wanna use anger...use it against Biden and the government. Liars, war mongers, cheaters, racist leaders. And yes...I'm a veteran. Sick of the lies our own government perpetrates on the world. Research it all yourself..facts

تحيا الاماره الاسلاميه ❤❤

No women in this country? No mothers, no sisters, no daughters..

Thank you so much got the lovely show Davud. OMG u do look like an afghan 😊

Brother you look very much like Pashtoon. .

Divljaci nepismeni

Eu uso legging e tô pouco me lixando pra polícia moral kkkkk

Gente. Quero falar com a galera do taliban pra acabar com a moral dos Estados Unidos. Vamo????

That's a nicer hotel room than most of the ones in Canada.
And I am impressed with the hand-washing before eating. Most people in Canada don't wash their hands before they eat.

That's a very extensive bag security check, isnt it?

The pork curry in there was very nice I tried last time

MASHA ALLAH, I'M FROM TO BANGLADESH.

It's absolutely sick that you would support this women hating regime.

You are so beytifull looking ❤

Afghanistan was very westernized until middle of 1970s, when US backed Mujahideen, a tribal communities far away from Kabul to counter offensive the USSR that became Taliban that turned into an Afghan government.

Afghanistan has so much natural resources, but the current major setbacks are obviously the Taliban's radical views of religion, politics, judicial and economic development for all its citizens.

Smart attitude of afgan people mesmerise me!

Love from Bangladesh!

Afganisn the hub of terrorist and mad people

Davud you look like an actor called Travis Fimmel.

Do they have women there?

Thousands of Americans have lost their lives for absolutely nothing . United States hasn't made one bit of difference other than ask their men and women to die for a country that couldn't care less about them , United States has pulled out of every fight since 1951 and accomplished NOTHING . Politicians love these wars , their personal investments are in weapons , defense contractors , they make money on our children's lives .
