Why i left Afghanistan & some travel tips !

Why i left Afghanistan & some travel tips !

And now for guiding female tourists um talian don’t have any problem discovered that had been under investigation since last visit um he was told that there were many Afghans had made official reports against how old are you 16 16 16 17 surprise yes it’s me finally I am back

I’m finally making this video about just a catchup and about mainly about Afghanistan about why I left so quickly because basically I fled overnight uh I’ll tell you about that coming up it had nothing to do with the Taliban it had nothing to do with anyone from Afghanistan completely different

Thing and it it was pretty but I’ll explain coming up but I I’m just going to run over a few things of um Afghanistan I want I get so many questions about Afghanistan I have been trying to make this video for about two weeks H and I’ve tried it this must be

About my 10th time trying it I am so bad at talking to the camera like this I didn’t realize how bad I was until I had to do this video I can talk to this camera in front of a 100 people behind me at the airport but like this I find

It really really really difficult so bear with me so I’m going to um I’m I came home for Christmas to New York I’ve been in Scotland cuz my mother is some people know she’s sick uh I’ll be going back there I made a quick trip to Mexico

And I I came back from Scotland via Iceland on a really Budget Airline which I made a vlog on I just it’s been a stressful time anyway love to go back to Afghanistan but apparently I’m not welcome so we’ll talk about that in a bit I wrote some things

Down to help me but I don’t uh it’s not going to help me so I’m just going to have to try and do my best to Rattle everything off so I get so many questions lots of questions you know I I spent four months there I spent two

Months the first time and last year I spent two months in I went by myself I got my Visa in Pisha I crossed I took a taxi across toam land Crossing border and I went by myself and then I just met people when I was there I had nothing

Planned nothing organized or anything so I um the number one question everybody asks me is safety do I feel safe there uh you know yes I felt safe people uh you do not need a guide a guide is not mandatory you can go even for a solo

Female traveler you don’t need a guide you can do independent travel if you want to it’s completely up to you there’s many ways of doing guides so so they have the international tour companies which charge a fortune I I I can’t even believe how much some of them

Charge one company charged is like for a 15-day tour it’s $4,500 and that doesn’t even incl that’s not even your flights to get there and everything it’s just crazy and they offer Visa support but you don’t need visa support you you can do like I did

And other one you just walk into the console in P or something and you’ll get your visa in half an hour it’s very simple the Visa process not not all countries but um I mean not all countries uh give the Visa so easily if I was to make another video video on

This uh it would take an hour I mean if I was to talk about this in this video the Visa process the permits it would take another it would take an hour I’m happy to do another video on this if anybody wants me to but I’m going to put

Some links in the description there’s a another solo Travelers blog Diana I’ll link hers has it’s very detailed we have a Facebook group Afghanistan travel experience and through that you can join a WhatsApp Group which is very active and it’s uh it has some guys local guys it has Travelers sharing their

Experiences cheap hotels people asking you know how do I get from A to B what route did you take lots of advice and everything in there so and and local guides so that’s sometimes people find the best way to do it is you know you get to Kabul and then you’ll make your

Own way to take you know you’ll fly yourself to harat or something and you’ll meet a local guide there if you do decide to use um local guides and they you want to spend two weeks with this local guide make sure you have everything in writing uh I can’t tell

You how important that is even if it’s a text or anything have it written down this has happened a couple of times uh not just to me uh where a guide will give you a price and then you’ll get back and they’ll decide it’s double uh so make sure you have everything in

Writing and also what is included so if you have a local guide do you have to pay for their flight their accommodation their food um in this daily rate because you might get a daily rate of 50 bucks but you’ll have to pay for their flight their accommodation their food and

Everything while you’re away for 2 weeks that’s why a lot of people use local guides in different areas and travel by themselves some areas you can’t really do that like for panare it would be it would have been kind of impossible for me to go there by myself because uh

There’s not much public transport and to get there so I went with Sultan there I spent two days in panare I stayed overnight in a chakana which is a very low budget accommodation because there was no hotels and when I had gone there hadn’t been any other many other

Tourists there so they were really unfamiliar but safety I never felt unsafe anywhere I never felt threatened at all until I left but that part of the reason I left uh I felt safer walking around the streets of Kabul at night you know I would meet friends in a restaurant

15minute walk away I would walk by myself and I felt safer there than like walking in London for example I don’t know what people think is going to happen to them when people think say that I’m crazy for going there there um I have a death wish for going

There I I I don’t get it they must just be still listening to the Western media what western media is saying about Afghanistan it is still number one on the world’s most dangerous country list I don’t know why because I’ve been places that feel more dodgy than Afghanistan the security is super tight

The Taliban take tourists Safety and Security super seriously uh that’s why you need permits when you get there you need permits for each province you get them in Kabul and then when you’re in a province you’ll get a permit you have to go to the ministry of culture in that Province to

Let them know that you’re there and uh you’ll get another permit for that Province and it’s all about your safety they want to make sure nothing happens to you and if you have any problems any issues at all with anything like any other country what would you do you

Would go to the police it’s the same thing in Afghanistan the police are the Taliban so you would go to the Taliban and they will help you they are on your side they hate to see tourists being ripped off scammed or anything like that so they are on your side being there

Done it they’re they will help you people seem I don’t know I just I it I don’t know I don’t know what people think it’s going to happen to them especially Americans um I mean my passport is British so if you’re thinking of things like that my passport

Is no no different you know I think probably the worst moment for me was in in Kandahar uh sitting in a hotel room uh Taliban came in to check some other tourists uh was Bjorn from Norway I’m sure I don’t know if people know him he’s very well-known traveler they came

In to check his documents him and his friends and he just happened to look at my passport the tban and I have a British passport clearly British passport um he saw that and he said that his father was killed by a British bomb and how did I feel about that I honestly

I just wanted the grand to swallow me up I was absolutely not expecting that and I was mortified what do you say I I I said I was very sorry uh I don’t have anything to do with my government decisions I’m just a person so this is governments and

People are different you know and a lot of people have to remember that I have nothing to do with my government’s decisions nothing I can’t stop them doing any things and the same for everybody we’re just people on the ground we don’t have anything to do with our government decisions and people on

The ground and these War torn countries specifically even though it was Brits NATO America that did all this to them the the local people they don’t hold grudges and it seems like nobody holds grudges to us tourists they really don’t they still welcome you with open arms they’re so hospitable the people in

Afghanistan are the most hospitable people I have ever met in my life I have never ever experienced this before um Iraq also was like this but Afghanistan it’s just completely on on another level you know I would go to these the rural areas you know we camped in kunar by a

Village they had never seen tourists ever and we W go walking through this Village and the whole village came out uh they helped us the the governor I call him the governor the the the head of the village came at night and hooked

Up a a a l a light bulb to to the post to so that he could keep an eye on us because we weren’t near a Taliban there was no t tan around that when we first went up through kunar the safest place apparently for us to stay was next to a

Taliban checkpoint notified the checkpoint asked if we could camp there and they said that it was fine and they they would uh look out for us not that there was anything to look out for but occasionally in some of these countries you do get uh other groups that want to

Uh attack in all countries there’s always the there’s always other militant groups that want to uh cause damage so that’s what they are looking out for uh when they’re looking out for your safety and everything but I never honestly felt in any danger in all the times even

Driving from cabul all the way to Kandahar in the middle of nowhere I never felt uh threatened or worried at all at any time then I really didn’t um so that’s the number one thing is safety um I get a lot of people saying it’s it’s my white privilege it’s white

Privilege it’s not white privilege it’s uh I met tourists from Pakistan Bangladesh Canada Europe uh Africa China Japan everywhere America everywhere and all tourists are treated the same it does not matter where your passports from so it’s not white privilege i’ because they’re not all white i’ seen a lot of these tourists

Look like local people especially when they dress like a local even the women tourists uh they look like local women uh everybody’s treated the same as tourists every single tourist is treated the same I always felt treated with respect and uh you’ll find other tourists will say the same thing um

There is a tourist privilege which exists in every country in the world tourists have certain um privileges that other locals don’t have that’s not uh unusual but that’s not just in Afghanistan that’s in many many other countries so people can’t can’t really see it’s white privilege because it’s

Not uh look at black man The Traveler Amir he’s not white uh so that’s another thing that people say people say I’m naive to go there I have no idea if anything happens to me if I get kidnapped my fellow countrymen will have to come and put their lives at risk to

Rescue me but again that goes for these people obviously are just uh reading western media not only did I meet many tours from around the world this this time I met many many Afghans that have returned back last year for the first time in years to visit their family so

That happened a lot I met so many and many of them recognized me from my YouTube videos so they would come up and tell me that’s how I knew you know I met people from London uh Birmingham so many people from uh Germany a lot of people

From Germany many many many uh returning Afghans a couple the first year but more so this year also I many people seem to think I walk around bodyguards I I don’t or security I don’t I never ever had a bodyguard I’ve never had a bodyguard I walk around by myself or with another

Tourist the only time in Kabul I had Sultan I met Sultan randomly in a restaurant when I was with Marius the German we met him randomly and he decided he wanted to be a guide so we got him got him his paperwork and he helped me he took me to panier we would

Hang out and he was my interpreter CU he speaks peso this is another thing you need if you if you’re having a local guide make sure they speak PTO it’s very important especially if you’re vlogging and you need a good translation and everything and you want to interact with

The people many and I would say like out of all the guides most of the guides I’ve met and I have met a lot of guides they all say they speak PTO and I don’t know this until I read the comments like your comments in my uh SE my comment

Section that they have no clue how to speak PTO and I don’t know that when when they say they speak fluent PTO I believe them so anyone if it’s really important make them do a test find your hotel your hotel manager or something and have them do a like a Google

Translate test something in PTO so that you can know that they can communicate clearly in PTO CU most of the time Taliban especially in the rural rural areas they like to communicate in peso in uh where was I in nuristan it was a Taliban Commander came out on his

Motorbike and he’s like what kind of guide is this he doesn’t even speak my language that’s when also when I found out that the guy uh didn’t speak PTO the Taliban told me and I would have no idea so I would advise anybody to to give them a testos

You tell me about your feeling and what do you feel how do you feel here in in this Village oh this oh it’s beautiful I’ve never seen not the people is oh the people they just look they are checking with you they’re they’re very curious yeah they’re very curious just

All coming around it’s very nice uh I can speak five language because because now I can’t because my m is weak not working very well your English is is good my English is good yes okay thank you yes from your good idea this is a language to he is

Speaking it this is not my language you speak what language you speak my language is PT oh P he speaking I thought you don’t speak panan so when I go to a country everybody wants this is not just me this happens to people expect me to go there

Now I upload my videos when I’m in the country because I like to be current I up upload my Instagram so because locals will contact me uh give me advice they want to meet me uh so I upload while I’m in the country and I like to do that

Because I like to stay as current as I possibly can so that I can meet people or get ideas from people or people invite me to visit places um most other YouTubers I know they don’t upload anything until they’re long gone from the country but people expect me to be a

Journalist and report on the social issues of of Afghanistan and while Afghanistan has issues everybody knows about these issues everybody knows about the sad situation on girls education girls need their education um girls want their education it’s so important for girls to have their education and I just hope

That this will change um I know not all Taliban are against education for the for girls um but it’s politics and people think when I’m there that they tell me I should be reporting on this uh topic when I’m there I am there on a tourist visa I’m just a tourist I’m not

A reporter I’m not a journalist I’m not there I wouldn’t in any country go to a country and report on a country’s social issues while I’m there and it’s not my job that’s the job of a journalist it’s not the job of a tourist and I see many

Tourists going there and it’s kind of sad you know trying to show the positive sides of a country trying to show that it’s safe to go to and it’s an amazing country load of uh loads to see lots of historical things gorgeous scenery mountains lakes valleys it’s stunning country um but and

People upload this and you get slammed for it I got death threats the first time I went I literally got death threats for going there as a woman and showing that it was fine and safe to walk around it is safe for a tourist to walk around I saw me there’s many local

Women go around as normal they travel around as normal I’m not denying that it they have issues there of but you you don’t know this I had many people think it’s okay for you but the poor local women are locked up in home and they’re

Not allowed to go out without uh a meal that’s not the case at all and but you won’t know that until you go there I can’t go around videoing women all the time people ask asking my videos where are the women where are the women I made

One video particular when I think it was my first one there I was just walking down the street video in the in the morning there was hardly any people behind me if maybe a couple of men around and whatnot uh it’s not a place where women would have any real reason

To be walking anyway but everybody’s like it’s such a shame there’s no women around in there are women around but just not at that particular time I made other videos I I met some girls girls in dut dash toari at an ice cream shop and

They were happy to be in a video but other women they do not like to be photographed they do not like to be videoed uh and it’s not allowed so I’m not going to go chase women around with the camera when it’s not allowed and the women hate it it’s disrespectful it’s

Not in the culture it’s the same in some areas in Pakistan in Iraq also uh the more rural areas over these places the the women don’t like to be photographed especially not on social media so this is um I saw women driving uh but nobody believes me I drove and I said local

Women can drive they call me a lawyer uh Diana went she she got some horrific comments also for showing um positive sides we’re not journalists we’re just tourists uh a little bit better this year than last year with the heat I didn’t get get so much hatred this year

Than I got last year last year probably because I was one of the first uh female tourists to go there I didn’t get I got so much hatred but this year was a bit better so the Taliban are different in every Province now I’ve been to 11

Provinces now and I noticed that they’re different everywhere some are more uh relaxed some are more conservative depends where you go I went to one Province and walked in we were taken to a school a school with uh women with girls in it it was an all girl school

With girls up to 17 so I was completely shocked at this I could not believe it I had made a vlog on it but some guy from the uh the UN that I met in my hotel he told me not to upload it even though the

School head the head of the school uh the teachers wanted me to upload it because they desperately needed supplies like pens and books and everything they have 700 girls in this school uh some walked 2 hours to get there there’s a girl school here the boy school’s like

Miles away and they have an agreement with the Taliban to allow education here so that’s just one province that I’ve been to and seen this I don’t know if it happens in other areas have no idea I just know that it was allowed in this

Area I’ll put a clip in um from my phone I think I have a clip oh I seea of green look at to how are you I’m thank you oh you speak English where did you learn English here yes do you learn English at school yes

Yes oh very good very good how old are you 16 16 16 17 so it’s very much like a country of contradictions from what you see and hear and the only way that you’ll find these things out is if you actually go yourself and see these

Things I am not being paid by the Taliban uh like many people seem to think uh that me like Amir Blackman and all these other YouTubers people have these weird conspiracies that uh we’re being paid to uh promote Afghanistan and show that everything is okay I have not

Showed everything is okay I’ve been I’ve been to uh villages where they are extremely poor but that they’ve been like that for years and years uh that’s really nothing nothing new um I’ve shown last first time I went I went to a girl School uh no it was a private English

School and the girls talked I haven’t not just showed everything’s 100% groovy because no country is 100% groovy they have uh with the sanctions and everything it’s it’s sad these people have so much you know the these rug the carpets are stunning you know if you go

There buy some rugs buy some carpets uh buy some jewelry buy it it has amazing amazing for shopping take a take an extra suitcase for shopping I couldn’t fit much in my backpack uh been a year since my first visit and my second visit there was a year exactly and things already changed

There’s a lot I saw a lot of improvements you know even on the the first time I went there was lots of drug addicts around when I did that walk around Shino you can see it in what the video the first video I did when I first

Went and when I went this time uh there was no drug addicts on the street there uh so there was differences and I because tourism’s uh becoming more popular there it’s a little bit easier than it was the first time to it’s worth it it’s definitely worth it for for what

You will see H also night life the the restaurants in Kabul and other places they’re amazing and I can’t video these places because I as a woman go to the family section now the family sections in these restaurants are the most are the hive of activity they’re all

Bustling they’re full of uh kids families uh women uh grandmothers mothers uh grandfathers fathers the the family section especially my favorite one is the cafeteria uh it has the it’s like an oasis outside uh with uh trees and uh Birds Ducks walking around and everything and kids and uh water fountains and everything

That’s my favorite restaurant and within 5 minutes of any restaurant someone a woman some woman will come up to you and and say hello and talk ask where you’re from they’ll want to take selfies they’ll invite you to their home for dinner they’ll invite you right there

And then to come and be their guest uh these if you go alone don’t feel bad going out to a restaurant on your own don’t feel bad going out to a restaurant on your own especially as a woman uh the men that I was with you know like the

Male tourists or any male that I we went out for dinner they on their own would not be able to see uh all this activity and the women and everything unless they were with me because I’m a woman they’re not allowed into this family section so the women’s SE the family sections all

Fun it’s fun whereas the mail section is just a room just full of men so no man really they want they don’t want to sit in that place but they can’t get into the family section unless they’re with a female so and these are things I

Can’t record I can’t take videos of all the women at in a restaurant I can’t do that so again you have to go and see for yourself that’s another thing so many there’s just so many things I that I can’t even I have I can’t record because

Of the culture it’s just a culture of things uh I just can’t there’s so many things that you don’t know unless you go there yourself and you see it for yourself so yeah it’s hard to explain unless you go there for yourself and you’ll see for yourself what it really

Is like instead of uh judging uh people from their Instagram posts and uh YouTube videos and everything go go for yourself and see for yourself and then you’ll see the real Afghanistan uh and the challenges that they face cuz they do face some challenges uh you’ll see it for yourself

Oh uh female guides so there are female guides they’re Somaya and paresa I think her name is from harat so there are two female guides that I know of now I only know this uh they’ve only been doing it for a few months she did not know that

She could that there was such a thing as being a a guide she went to the ministry of culture I’m looking up the message here she went to the ministry of culture by by herself in herat and asked about being a guide and they helped her they

Had no problem with her being a guide I we were messaging back and forth and when next time I go I will definitely use her and when people ask when females ask me I send them to her and I’m going to link her and her friend Paris I think

Her name their Instagram below they’re allowed to take female tourists uh she has her own car she drives she again like I said she had no idea and I asked her what I’ll play this message and now for guiding female tourists um tan don’t have any problem and um I myself didn’t know

About this uh generally about guiding until I went to the ministry and I was curious about it and try to explain how um how this works uh they try to help me and until now everything was good and I guided so many tourists in my Province so um

Somaya it’s blurry I’ll put her her thing in the description and her friend also but uh yeah she’s working as a as a guide she they’re allowed to take uh female tourists they’re allowed to take uh couple a couple uh but with a male tourist they need to have a male I think

She said a male family member as far as that I got that from uh the the other girl yesterday uh I don’t know they had no idea this opportunity existed for them so now they’re very happy they’re earning money they’re working they’re meeting meeting tourists and everything

I don’t know if any other females will do this in any other provinces but it would be a really good idea because as a female tourist in areas like in nuristan for example I wasn’t able to interact with the women because the women hate

Men no I don’t mean I don’t mean it like that uh when a man comes around the women run away they from the from them it actually looks like they don’t really like but that’s their culture and it’s been like that for centuries it’s just how they are in

Nuristan uh a car will come past and they’ll hide their faces and turn their back it’s like they have a six sense for men but when they’re working in the valleys and everything men are not welcome there because they’re you know they’re planting crops so they’re squatting down and everything um but as

A woman I was able to go up to them washing clothes by the river but I couldn’t communicate with them because uh they don’t speak English and I couldn’t communicate I couldn’t ask my mail guide to come with to come because uh they wouldn’t communicate with with

Him either it’s that’s their culture so a female guide would have been super super helpful uh in situations like that so if I I’d love to go back to nuristan again with a female guide this time now I could go on and on and on but

I’m going to go and tell you about what happened I hate talking about this okay so there was a man a western man who tried to help he got involved with something well I had an issue and he oh let me start from the beginning so it was really

Weird so this is how what this is when everything started to go to basically for me uh I this man had come to my hotel a couple of times and left his phone number uh the hotel guy had told me that gave me a phone number gave me a piece

Of paper and said to call this guy I’m like well who is it at first he said I don’t know you know and then it happened a few times he went to my hotel because I upload while I’m in the country so I had uploaded where I was staying even

Although I had gone away for a week gone to nuristan I think when I got back from nuristan he’ come to my hotel again looking for me to leave his phone number and I just walked in at the time that he was there and I came down I’m I’m not

King you I came down like this and I I’m like you know who are you and he’s like he’s like don’t come any closer he says I’m a Muslim it was the most bizarre meeting I have ever had with anybody ever he says you have no idea how do you

Realize how bad this would be for me if anyone uh saw photographed us together everyone in the room is a Muslim he’s not the only Muslim there but right he he was taking it to the extreme so he he befriended me at first you know I I I

Didn’t know what his agenda was now I do uh so we went you know he he tried to help in something which he did not help he made things 10 times worse anyway then he he would text he wanted to go for coffee one day with me with um

Another tourist also he but he wanted to go to the cafeteria to the family section because he hadn’t been to the family section in a long time in years and he wanted to go there but he can’t go as a man he can’t go there alone he has to be with me or

Another woman to go in the family section so we went we met we went into the family section he had his coffee uh and then everything just went to basically every video I uploaded he would tell complain about it he would threat he would oh it was so bad I don’t

Know where to begin it all started with a Serena Vlog I had permission to go and make a vlog at Serena Hotel I was allowed to do the Garden area I I know what areas I was allowed to do so as soon as that Vlog uploaded he went

Straight to the Serena hotel to cause problems and he texted me and told me I had to delete that Vlog immediately uh that the manager there told he said the manager told me to contact you to delete that Vlog and I was causing an international incident with Pakistan and

It it was really it really was stressful cuz these texts were non-stop coming in and then I didn’t just stop there then he wanted to meet me he said we had to some issues we had to address some issues I’ll show you the texts he said I

Had been under investigation for a over a year since my last visit say I had been under investigation he had been told he had been told this right now I don’t know who would tell him high up officials I don’t know what high officials would tell him this and why they would tell

Him this uh he said I’m not welcome back into the country he said some uh local many local Afghans also have complained about me made official complaints his local Afghans had made official complaints about me that I’m just after Fame and Fortune uh Fortune it doesn’t even cover my my

Travel costs at all it it doesn’t I don’t get millions of views like other people so then he got really childish and he sent me this text written by himself to make out that it was me writing this text saying that I am happy to act as a facilitator I’ll show you

All these texts and I’m you know it was basic basically criticizing the government and their how they’re dealing with tourism saying that they need to get their act together otherwise tourists won’t come and I’m reading this I’m like what what you know I I have no

Idea what he was talking about and at the time he’d already freaked me out saying I was under investigation I had he he’d heard from some top level some top level government officials that I was under investigation that they were very unhappy with me and he he wanted to come

To my hotel and address some issues he we had to talk about some issues I had said no I don’t want to talk to you anymore please stay away from me and I had warned people anyone that follows me on Instagram will know what happened at

The end so yeah he sent me this whole text like it like it was me writing it I don’t know what his agenda was the only thing I can think of is that you show someone a text on your phone and say look look what she wrote that’s the only

Thing I can think of that the reason that he would have done that something like that but later on like maybe a month or so ago he used those words on his Twitter to say that they were my words um you know it’s like I I can’t even

Make this up I swear uh Emma wiers known as wondering Emma on the surface everything looks fine but it’s clear that blogger is only here for freebies Fame and Fortune I didn’t get any freebies in fame or fortune and but what he actually said his words I respect the Afghan government I’m happy

To serve as a facilitator but I will tell you my experience these are exactly the words that he had texted me so he twisted these words around and posted this on his t Twitter seeing that there were my words criticizing the government I would never do that I never ever did that ever

And I’m not the only vlogger he’s attacked he’s attacked other vloggers also but it it was um did all these things I’ll show you and then he like he said he will pray for me I don’t know if you can see that I will pray for you Emma and I’m

Like what are you talking about that all came from this one thing he constantly harassed me I had to tell the hotel managers that if he came around to say I was not staying there that I wasn’t there um and basically I just checked out and got out of there as soon as

Possible because I didn’t trust this man he can’t be trusted he fabricates lies and I don’t know what his agenda is it seems that he attacks uh anyone that’s I don’t know if it’s like a an attention thing I really don’t know I I can say that like from walking around when I

Walked around with him I would get asked for a lot of selfies from local people and he his nose was a bit put out of joint sometimes when that happens but when he would walk around kour I’m not kidding this is how he walk and someone he put

It put his hand out like this like you know for people people to kiss his hand basically think he walks around like he’s the king the king of Kabul so this man is living there and I’m not comfortable going back with him there he has said publicly he

Slandered me on Twitter so many times saying that I don’t respect the Afghan culture I walk around without a hijab um that I I think it’s somewhere like visiting New York or Istanbul or Dubai I have no idea yeah basically basically I’m one of those tourists who thinks

It’s like Dubai or New York or Istanbul and have no respect for the culture or or anything like that it’s all on his Twitter he publicly said it he said I lied I stole from local people I never did I never did he said uh I I spread

Gossip about the exam the the government I mean why would he say that to why would he say these things to get me in trouble when I’ve done absolutely nothing wrong and these other tourists that have been there these other YouTubers they’ve also done nothing

Wrong and he’s just I don’t know I don’t know how he’s getting away with this he’s he’s getting away with publicly telling these people that they’re not allowed back to Afghanistan so that’s what that’s where things stand I don’t know I know he’s he tell lies so I don’t

Know and he’s Australian and most people will know who I’m talking about yeah I’m I’m going to put this the texts so that you can see for yourself but that’s the story of why I left and I don’t know if I’ll go back again he’s living there and he’s going to be living

There he said uh he now works for the Department of Tourism so if he’s working for the Department of Tourism all I can say is good luck to their Department of Tourism anyway I am happy to make another Vlog after this with more details about permits and visas and all

That kind of stuff but for now I’m going to wrap this up I’m going to put the text his text and screenshots so that you can see those um in between I’ll probably chop them up in between all right so that’s it I hope this is not

Too long and uh I I’m not too like jip jip jip all over the place with this I tried my best and I will I’m not sure what’s next for me to be honest I don’t know after nowhere will compare to Afghanistan I love it so much I would

Is the one that was really weird I respect Afghan government I’m happy to serve as a facilitator for tourists but I will tell you my experience the government seems overwhelmed and tense because um sometimes you need a permit sometimes not blah blah blah Travelers come to the country and don’t get a stamp

Um in their passport and think it’s normal I get checked and the Taliban looks at my Indian sticker Visa uh then the guys so I don’t even have an Indian I’ve never been to India you need to connect with coordinate better with other if word Gets Out Among Travelers

Afghanistan 2023, this is the vlog thats taken ,e so long to do, to talk about the reason i left afghanistan, i am not showing anything here that this man hasnt already sown on his social media, in fact he had worse up there, but removed it and blocked me because i showed the proof he lied about me criticising the government… you can skip to the end to see that, this is about why i left and my feelings on Afghanistan, why i Love Afghanistan so much, and hope one day i can return to Afghanistan, as things stand now according to this man , he was told i am no longer welcome in Afghanistan, me as well as some other vloggers , he has told others they are no longer welcome in Afghanistan, whivh i find very strange that he can say all these things and he is not even Afghan himself. Afghanistan will still be my favourite country, id love to take a bunch of people with me sometime so i can show people the real Afghanistan,away from Western Media. The people of Afghanistan deserve everything after what they have been through for decades, if you could see how happy tourism makes the locals, you would go in a heartbeat. Go with an open mind, leave Politics behind and you will be amazed… thanks to everyone for their support .. i will put all travel links below ,
