A Tourist's Guide to Erbil, Iraq-Kurdistan

I fly into Erbil, Kurdistan-Iraq. But this is nothing like Baghdad; it's peaceful and full of culture. I wander around a bazaar, see a bit of the citadel, and then do a rip around the city in a taxi.

Erbil International Airport, Kurdistan Region of Iraq - Unravel Travel TV

Erbil International Airport (IATA: EBL, ICAO: ORER), is the main airport of Erbil city in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Erbil International Airport is centrally located on the Silk Road of the Airways. Following the liberation of Iraq in 2003, the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) decided to transform Erbil's former military base into a modern civil aviation airport to serve as a major gateway to the world. Erbil International Airport (EIA) officially opened on July 7, 2005, and it welcomed its first IATA carrier on 11th December 2006. The KRG has enacted favorable rules to attract foreign investors and to help citizens of the Kurdistan Region in exile return home. Domestic traffic, as well as regional traffic throughout the expansive Middle East, is growing. Kurdistan's great natural resources of oil, natural gas and other minerals are creating a flourishing and rapidly growing business environment. Kurdistan is previously in exile are returning, bringing with them connections to other lands. There is an ever stronger need for efficient air transport, for passengers as well as cargo. The Erbil area has a stable water supply, and is surrounded by scenic and accessible wilderness lands, with greenery, clean streams, waterfalls and caves. This stands in stark contrast to other Middle Eastern destinations,and visitors will fuel an important tourism industry in Kurdistan. These are some of the reasons that the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) and EIA have constructed and equipped an airport for the future, with capacity for three million passengers, and one of the world's longest runways, designed to accommodate the Airbus A380 and cargo aircraft of that class. The airport is the culmination of the vision and strategy put in place in 2003.

IRAQI KURDISTAN | MINUTE DIARY 03 | #71????

A short compilation of footage from my x5-day adventure around Iraqi Kurdistan in November 2019. Iraqi Kurdistan offers a rich culture with a fascinating history and beautiful landscapes. Check out my Instagram and Facebook page for photographs and stories:

The 'MINUTE DIARY' is a compilation of footage from my various adventures. They attempt to cinematically capture the essence of the places visited. These videos are great fun to make – the process basically involves overlaying footage over a soundtrack to create a video that flows seamlessly and tells a story.

I made this video as the Introduction clip to a x5 Day / x5-Episode TRAVEL DIARY. This video series will document my day-to-day activities as I go about my day traveling on a very tight budget (less than $50 for x5 days of travel). In this video series, I will show you how I minimize my costs, in particular, the x3 main costs incurred when traveling:
[1] TRANSPORT
[2] ACCOMMODATION
[3] FOOD
... using simple techniques, such as hitch-hiking, using local/public transport, CouchSurfing, Sharing Hotel Rooms and eating local food.

This video is made using a Canon G7 X Mark II (a simple point-and-shoot) and my phone (I do wish I'd had a drone at the time!). If you learn a decent video editing tool you can easily create these, I use Final Cut Pro X (FCPX). FCPX currently has a 90-day-free-trial which is more than enough time to learn the software and create content:
