Just to translate for everyone... (Very nice pictures. I am trying to learn Urdu(Pakistan's national language). I am trying to speak the little that I could.) So you are from Pakistan? BTW, another interesting fact is that the official language of the country is actually English. Link to comment

Oh well I have been to Afghanistan once in 2006 coming through the Kalaash valley. I only stayed for about 30 minutes before I made the 6 hour walk back to the Kalaash valley. I offcourse had Pakistani military permission and security to make that visit. Link to comment

doyathink Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 VERY beautiful pic's, Slashed. Thank you for sharing. I know nothing about your country really...I never knew it was that beautiful. What kind of climate do you have? When do your 4 seasons turn? Do women not have to veil their faces there? IS that a Catholic church? Link to comment
ProtestTheHero Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I'm very interested to see more pictures and maybe hear your take on the country as a whole. You can discuss its political structure and makeup and history and I doubt anyone would debate it since it's purely historical. Link to comment
stingray Posted May 9, 2009 Author Share Posted May 9, 2009 VERY beautiful pic's, Slashed. Thank you for sharing. I know nothing about your country really...I never knew it was that beautiful. I haven't even gotten to the beautiful part yet! What kind of climate do you have? When do your 4 seasons turn? Do women not have to veil their faces there? IS that a Catholic church? The climate is pretty much like the United States in the sense that we are very diverse. We pretty much get all sorts of weather depending on the region we are talking about... No, women don't have to veil their faces and they could wear whatever they would like...Pakistani law consists of Anglo-Saxon laws with a few "Islamic" laws that were inserted by a dictator. Those laws are slowly being removed so we are going back to our secular base. And yes thats a Catholic church...We have quite a few in Pakistan. I'm very interested to see more pictures and maybe hear your take on the country as a whole. You can discuss its political structure and makeup and history and I doubt anyone would debate it since it's purely historical. Alright, I will cover those details throughout the thread.
