What’s it REALLY Like as a Tourist in AFGHANISTAN

???? UPDATE: SINCE MY TRIP TO AFGHANISTAN, THE TALIBAN HAVE BEEN TAKING OVER THE COUNTRY, KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE AND TAKING AWAY HOPE FROM A NATION ALREADY DESTABILIZED BY 40 YEARS OF WAR. PLEASE DONATE TO STAND IN SOLIDARITY WITH THE PEOPLE OF AFGHANISTAN AND HELP THEM SURVIVE THIS ORDEAL:

Did you ever expect Afghanistan to look like this? My local friends took me on an adventure in one of the most beautiful regions of Afghanistan, Bamyan. Walking on a frozen lake, staying in a local guesthouse and getting a taste of local food and shopping... This is what it's like to be a traveller in Afghanistan.

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

Inside Taliban-Controlled Afghanistan ???????? 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.

Inside the Taliban's Most Notorious City (Afghanistan) ????????

Located in southern Afghanistan, Kandahar City is a historic and culturally rich destination that boasts ancient traditions and modern influences. Join me as I navigate my way through winding lanes of the Old City, where tradition meets modernity. I explore the vibrant markets, where the colors, aromas, and sounds tell tales of a city that has stood the test of time. I also had the chance to talk to the locals, hearing their stories, and share in their traditions, to truly experience the true hospitality that makes Kandahar a city like no other.

I HAVE JUST RETURNED SAFELY FROM SPENDING 2.5 INCREDIBLE WEEKS IN AFGHANISTAN and I have SO MANY stories to tell you in this 9-part series! I can't even tell you how excited I am to share these untold stories with you, it's gonna be wild.

My last time in this country was 18 months ago and I have very amazing memories from that trip, but this time around has deepened my love and appreciation for Afghanistan's culture, history, nature and people. On my first few days back, I spent time in Kabul and visited completely new areas than before. This video highlights my experiences (and anxieties) from returning to one of the world's most dangerous countries.

I’m Back in Afghanistan! ????????

Nobody Shows You This Side of Kabul, Afghanistan! ????????

Walk through the busy streets of Kabul, Afghanistan with me.

I really didn’t know what to expect. The mainstream media and my Canadian government has painted Afghanistan as a deathtrap with zero chance of survival for tourists.

I’m not a huge fan of the evening news, and I don’t trust much of what they say. As a world traveller I’ve never in my life Googled “is a country safe…” because I know the answer will always be no in the eyes of an average tourist. Remember, I am not an average tourist.

Listen, I know Afghanistan has had a bad wrap for decades. Conflict after conflict, war after war. No question that a lot of bad stuff has occurred here. But it’s 2022 and i’m ready to give Afghanistan and the Taliban a chance. I will not be digging into the past, and I know my interaction with the Taliban will upset some viewers. I am only filming what I personally witness while being in Afghanistan. This is not my job, nor am I a journalist. Simply a man with a camera that loves to travel the globe.

Since it’s my first day in Kabul and I haven’t found a translator or fixer yet, I’ve decided to get lost on the streets and walk until I can’t feel my feet.

Today’s video is a 60 minute segment of my walk (Filmed: Sunday, October 16th, 2022). I hope you enjoy! Much more Afghanistan content coming very soon so subscribe if you are interested.

Lastly, add me on Instagram for the inside scoop:

Thanks!

Street Food in Afghanistan (Delicious & Cheap!)

✅ SUBSCRIBE for More Travel Videos:
???? Get My Top 100 Travel Pics FREE!

I've now spent over 3 weeks of my life in Afghanistan, and I have barely told you about the AMAZING food that exists in this country! In fact, I would honestly say that Afghanistan has some of the most underrated street food in the entire world. All of the dishes here are so delicious, so plentiful and SO CHEAP!

In today's video, I take you on the streets of Bamiyan (in the central region of the country) to try some of the best Afghan street foods - IS ANYONE HUNGRY OUT THERE?!

Please note that this video was extremely hard to edit because just 2 weeks after I left Bamiyan, there were 2 massive blasts that destroyed the main marketplace, leaving 14 people dead and dozens more wounded. 100% of this video was shot in that exact marketplace, which is now in ruins, and I am just devastated.

In any regard, Bamiyan (and Afghanistan as a whole) is one of my favorite places on earth -- the culture is so raw and authentic, and the people are some of the most hospitable in the world! I am loving every second of this trip and I can't wait to tell you more stories from the wonderful country of Afghanistan.

PS - Would you try any of these Afghan dishes? Comment below!

I traveled to AFGHANISTAN under T4LIBAN RULE (3 week trip)

In this video Chloe Jade Travels to Afghanistan under the t4liban rule

This video was recorded over 2 and a half weeks in November 2022

This is the REALITY of an AMERICAN WOMAN traveling to AFGHANISTAN under T4LIBAN RULE

Afghanistan is incredibly overlooked when it comes to the beauty of the country, only though of for what it is portrayed in the media and in movies.

Similar to what I have spoken about with Syria, people have dehumanized refugees when they have no idea how much these Afghan refugees have given up

I hope to share the realities of my trip, so you can understand how incredible this country is, and why Afghans would never CHOOSE to leave their country, and why many feel they've been forced to, in order to give their families a fair chance.

The main video is 48 minutes long, with a 30 minute Q&A at the end.

Please let me know any additional questions in the comments and I will do my best to answer.

Thank you for all your support ????

Afghanistan: Is it safe to visit?

Is it safe to visit Afghanistan?

This is the price that peace has to pay. This is the most stability the country has had in decades, and the situation that people are living in is still horrendous. There is no end to the suffering that Afghans endure.

Being able to visit as a foreigner, to enter and leave without any consequences IS a privilege. But just like in any other country, you have to respect the government, whether you agree with it or not. Especially if it's an authoritarian regime.

I'm not saying everyone is innocent, but there is more than meets the eye in Afghanistan. Many don't agree with what's happening but have no other choice but to abide by the new laws in place.
