    "I'm alive, and that's a reason to be happy"
    We forget that simple things in life we have that others don't , which if they had, they would be extremely happy, and yet, we are unhappy with our lives. We don't have cancer, we are not about to die from AIDS, we are not living on the street, all that shit, should be enough to make us happy, because with all that shit, someone out there would be endlessly happy. For someone out there, having you life, as bad as you might think it is, for them, it would be their life resolved. Even you, if you lost what you have, you would appreciate, so why not, be concious about it, and appreciate it now? Be happy now. You, I, we shoud be.

The people of Afghanistan are extremely nice and pleasant. Most welcome tourist and want tourist to enjoy Afghanistan and that is the reason I'm going to Afghanistan mid 2020. It also seems like the locals help tourist feel safe. At least that's how I see it.

I don't personally know him 5o pass judgement on his views and how he goes about things. Second I've gotten a lot older AND have not been to as many foreign countries but I've been around or pale blue dot a few times and I'll tell you from personally experiences... Live. Take those chances. Don't be stupid. If your white western or something that screams "spoiled western' then don't be dumb or loose going to that dark alley alone or flashing your fancy new GoPro at the wrong station.. but don't be super duper overly secure. You will miss out on ALOT. This guy has mastered this way of moving around the planet and has obviously earned great respect and seems to oozebit as well.

    Hello. I really thank you for this videos.
    I am from Austria and my wife is from Afghanistan. She had to leave the country in the age of twelve and came as a refugee to Austria where I met her. We are living at the moment in Australia. My wife is studying as a phd, how to empower women in Afghanistan.
    You helped me to see her country from different and beautiful sides. Thank you for that.
    And it was me an honour to donate to UNICEF.
    Merry Christmas

There is no democracy in Afghanistan thanks to the USA and contrary to popular pro-American propaganda, the people don't support Karzai or Ghani, who both US puppets who were not voted in by the people but installed in government by the US imperialist invaders.
