      I know Karl is anti-indian now. He cut out the part with the guy carrying a TV because he was rude toward him when Karl said Hi.
      Only in India does Karl show negative aspects (dont bring up the drug thing, because that exists everywhere).
      Karl is probably hired by Pakistans propaganda minister
      I think it would be more fun and honest to show rude people too
      And if you got cured of depression by a youtube video, then you never had depression lol

      @Nonameisperfect I was happy to get off my Super Nintendo and into the PS1. I like wrestling, GTA, and shooters. So Nintendo never really Impressed me. Then I got Halo and that converted me to Xbox, as well as them having the best shooter line up. I was never into Japanese games. But I’ve always owned a PS for the great exclusives. I bought a Switch OLED only a few months ago (a video is coming about that store). Breath of the Wild is amazing 🤩 So I’m enjoying the Switch atm, cause I don’t have a TV currently.

    The actual "Smuggling Market" was at the time when USSR was in Afghanistan (1979 to 1992). There were a lot of smuggle Russian stuff in these markets like electronics, fabrics, karakri, stationery, Russia army uniforms and boats etc and of course original "AK47". I still remember that time as a kid. The russian air conditions, fridge and TVs were the most famous items among the other in Peshawari people.

    I love learning about foreign cultures, because I am intrested in seeing how other people live their lifes. I am German and have never been to Pakistan, India, Afghanistan all those places (I think Tunisia is the most foreign place I've seen and that was like 10 years ago when I was 11 or 12 years old). I stumbled about this Channel by pure chance and I had a great intrest in this channel.

    Excellent vlog Karl. Just wanted to point out that since you were trying to speak Urdu, you used some Hindi words instead in your talk. Here are the Urdu equivalents:
    Sundar (Hindi) = Khoobsoorat (Urdu)
    Shanti (Hindi) = Aman (Urdu)

    You missed the first 2 markets at the start of your videos. At the start is the Sitara Market, where most of the items are from abroad ranging from shoes, edible items, batteries, chocolates, toffees, golf sticks to all kinds of cosmetics, perfumes, sprays and many other things.

    My late father, a veteran of WW2 1st marine division. Told me of how they were going through a small village on an island Guadalcanal, Okinawa or Pellieu can’t remember now. But the old ladies were sitting outside making tea and invited him to sit and drink with them. He did and told me the Japanese were just like us in many ways. Despite the horrors inflicted on each side, he had respect for the soldiers he fought against and spoke of the horrible waste of life on both sides. They were all just doing their jobs for country or emperor.

    Come visit Bangladesh and West Bengal too. The language is very similar to Hindi. You'll find no trouble mixing with the locals.
