Hey Ron - kind words! Have you been to PK as a tourist? Where did you get to cover, if you don’t mind me asking .. and where are you based? Out of curiosity..
Iam also shina from india but want to say Pakistan government has made you Buddhists in the name of promoting and preserving culture please rebel against this bastard Pakistan government and army
What on earth was that 😱 interesting & unique hmm...never seen this kind of culture. It is important to preserve their cultural heritage thereby defining their national identity , this festival keeps the community together 👍 that's fantastic 👍
Vloggers mostly prefer to visit Gilgit Baltistan in summers between June -Sept and people think that people of Gilgit Baltistan are living in heaven, but u people have shown this harsh weather of Gilgit Baltistan. Only few people might have seen this before..... Now people would realize that how tough it is to live there in winters but still they are happy.. Hats off to Steve & Luana❤️.. lots of love
You both are so fortunate to have such memorable experiences and meet such wonderful people. We are so fortunate to see your videos. Another informative video! Keep safe, healthy and happy.
OMG. I would like to congratulate you guys for covering such a hidden gem of a culture and tradition from masses including us Pakistanis. You guys are having a real treat. What an amazing vlog. Great job. One day I will visit the Beautiful people of shimshal. Insha Allah
Wow! Saw this festival for the 1st time, thanks to you guys! . Huge respect for the people of Shimshal for wearing masks in a festival during Pandemic, this is what unity alongside responsibility looks like side by side👍
I sit here, in my comfort zone in Karachi, exploring and experiencing the North through your eyes for the first time. Thank you for introducing me to this experience.
Very interesting and unique indeed! Wow! I never knew or heard of this place! The yak oil, the festival, the people... I noticed there's no overweight/obese ppl there...all good-looking, in good size and height, beautiful ladies, children...and Steve just fit in right there! Ivana you sure look cold, almost shivering... Thanks for showing these unique place. 👍👍👍
Yes! Northern Pakistanis are descendants from Alexander the Great and look quite European. People often thought I was a Pakistani, when I had my beard and was wearing my Pakistani cricket shirt especially :)
The people of Shimshal seem really special. I wish there was a safer way of getting there - the government of Pakistan should really help these people out with the infastructure they need!
Ramadhan is starting in Pakistan within 2-3 days and you will not get food to eat before dusk 😁 just reminding you to get ready this is the best month to stay as there will be blessings around everywhere
Hey ! I’m from Scotland stuck in Islamabad due to the lockdown in the UK & I have some sort of freedom in their nation instead of being bored in the UK. I just wanted to say that I am so happy that you guys are experiencing the real Pakistan instead of listening to what the media say about the nation. Absolutely honoured to watch to videos & it satisfies my soul you & other westerners are here sharing your experiences. I have travelled to various Countries such as Colombia, the USA, France, Italy, Austria, Turkey, Russia, Vietnam, Malaysia & Israel. Travelling is fatal to the prejudice to the intolerance & to the negativity of the mind. Keep on experiencing & sharing your videos. I love to learn about my nation as well as other nations. Massive love 💙
Shogun bohor Muborak We celebrate tagham festival you may call it spring festival we welcome spring in a unique way and start our cultivation Thankyou bro for the beautiful video ❤️❤️
An awesome, interesting and knowledgeable vlog... learned and saw so much about the culture, tradition of the people in Northern Pakistan. Great work, Steve lvana. Your vlogs are absolutely interesting as always. Massive thanks to you both ❣️❣️
I would recommend you to visit Quetta. South West city in Pakistan.. and in Quetta plz visit Mariabad or Hazara town.. the most educated minority in Pakistan with the best hospitality and lovely hearts.. Hazara nation is waiting for you.. go and enjoy
Steve you did a great job with that local dance so for us the high light of event was steve and evana :) bravo .......there is some mystery hidden in juniper tree branches. This tradition probably comes from the ancient greek who used to wear wraths made of juniper tree and juniper tree was venerated in many ancient tribal cultures. Alexander the great brought with him greek culture to these lands (north pakistan). I have seen local dresses from our north region with greek sun motif. I have one in mh collection i wish i could show you tha here.
@@h-sam2733 I didn't mean it. We all have our part. Punjabis n Muhajireen suffered during partition, Kashmiris suffered during wars, KPK n Balochistan suffered during War on Terror. My forefathers maybe not Muhajir but they were not kinda landlords either but just a "Qabaili". Am proud of my roots and wish some day our concealed culture get same recognition as those in big cities. Peace out!
Awesome! such a cool experience, smoke, the yak man, the food, tug of war, dances. Steve you are a natural 😃 Ivana, get the offwhite pakhol it suited you. These shimshal vlogs are so captivating for some reason, as they channel your excitement so well, amazing!!
You guys are really putting the nooks and crannies of Pakistan out there on the map. As a British born Pakistani with an intense love for my country l didn't even know that Shimshal existed! You're showing us traditional festivals that we would not normally get to see.... So excited and looking forward to what else we're about to see upon your travels..
that was the purest village style butter.. common in villages throughout Pakistan (would be the same I guess in India too).. the desi ghee (different than Clarified butter) (what you called yak-oil) isn't served like that in a plate.. and is served w/ meals and warm in a bowl. you don't put that butter in the tea.. you're given those parathas and you take a bite of it w/ that butter and or the omelet you have there.. next time try a paratha/chapati bite w/ omelet and butter together.. you'll love it.
O my my dat was great the funniest part of the vlog when steve participating the game Dat was hilarious😁😍awosum I really enjoyed keep up da gud work "what could b better Dan dis👍"
Fabulanatastic! I laughed so much when Steve played tug of war. Also I could feel how much love Ivana had for the lady after she tried the hats and was having tea. It actually got me teary eyed. Every day you guys take us on a different journey and we really appreciate all your efforts. Looking forward to the next one. Keep ‘em coming guys! 😍

Shimshal Jeep Road was built by our community elders on their own in 18 years.
Respect for our brethren in high mountain areas
Oh yeah... Steve and ivana have been discovering somethings that majority people don’t know about.. including Malaysia... they are awesome...
I'm excited for when they visit kalash valley. The kalash people are even more isolated and follow pagan religion.
I'm Pakistani even i don't know about that
Wow what a beautiful culture of shimshal I really love that tree 🎄 burning and making smoke 🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰
Shimshal people are very energetic because they can eat healthiest food
You both are so fortunate to have such memorable experiences and meet such wonderful people. We are so fortunate to see your videos. Another informative video! Keep safe, healthy and happy.

Tourists leave Pakistan, eventually. But the Pak memories don't leave them till the life ends.
This is how WE are.
Love from Lahore
Being Pakistani, I didn't know about this festival.
Pakistan is so diverse!!!
Wow! Saw this festival for the 1st time, thanks to you guys! . Huge respect for the people of Shimshal for wearing masks in a festival during Pandemic, this is what unity alongside responsibility looks like side by side👍
Thank you for the kind words.
These festivals is cleberated all over Gilgit baltistan and chitral but with different names due to language diversity .
I sit here, in my comfort zone in Karachi, exploring and experiencing the North through your eyes for the first time. Thank you for introducing me to this experience.
Thank you

@@JetLagWarriors Thank you so much.
Mashallah these people are so beautiful and this area in Pakistan is just wow! Amazing content as always. ❤️
No doubt "Shimshal is Bamisal" the people are still preserving their ancient festivals. Thanks @jetlag warrior for covering it beautifully.
The people of Shimshal seem really special. I wish there was a safer way of getting there - the government of Pakistan should really help these people out with the infastructure they need!

Wow ... I wonder why don’t Pakistani media show or highlights these kinds of activities...

Their cultural interest circles around just Karachi and Lahore where the majority of people are not even indigenous but came from india 7 decades ago
