    that is my hometown( Lashkar Gah), i was born and raised here, that butchers' place is where we would buy meat all the time and behind it is the very popular market called ( Landay soop ) meaning the " short market" , it feels very special that a foreigner walks through those same areas that are very unpopular globally and you relate with it 100 % just amazing, i wish i was there home and would have walked you through some more places and have helped you in translating with the locals, anyways huge respect from a Helmandi to you Emma❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

    People in Kandahar and especially Helmand were suffering in the past 20 years and they were discriminated and kept neglected just to push them to fight. The government officials stold hundred of millions just from Helmand budget, the budget was to rebuild the old historical castles and the old city of Alexander the Great and sultan Mahmood. Emma I appreciate that you are showing these to the world and I hope the relevant international organisations take a step to rebuild and preserve these castles and ancient city. Regards

    Emma, you have really been inspiring me. I am 27, and I dream to travel like this! I have only done solo travel around the US in my car, but I hope to do something like this and document it! I haven't been out of my country yet. The countries I want to see are the mid-east or Asian countries but let's be real I will go anywhere! My boyfriend is from Afghanistan and hasn't been back for close to ten years, and We hope to get out there. He has watched some of your Afghanistan videos with me and just smiles. He wants to do travel vlogs as well after we get married! Anyway yeah, I have been watching you for a few months like every day when I drink my coffee. If I don't travel any time soon I hope I will travel when I'm older too! So many people become so afraid of everything, for example, my mom is scared to drive in the dark she's your age lol... You are so fuckin cool! Your spirit is so energetic and sweet!

    WALK - ABOUT
    I'm on one of my walk abouts again as I wander around Helmand
    I'm overwhelmed by the kindness, generosity and love I receive everywhere I go
    Everywhere I go my face is well known
    There's no getting away
    As crowd's follow me around their numbers getting larger and larger
    Taking selfies with the crowd posing for the camera with my pearly white teeth
    I say cheese as I smile
    As I look for a quiet spot for a smoke or a vape
    A few quick puffs all I need
    Can you adam and eve it
    They've even named a pet snake and motorbike after me
    How crazy is that
    I'm not quite sure if I should take that as a compliment or not
    A snake I'm certainly not
    I'm not deceitful or untrustworthy in any way
    I've reached celebrity status as my ratings go up
    My followers can't seem to get enough
    As I try my best to upload every day
    Lack of sleep and late nights trying to edit my vlogs
    Pulling my hair out I just want to scream
    It's all to much at times running around like a headless chicken from one destination to another
    How all this happened so fast is baffling to me just as it is to you
    Listening to Matt and Luke my favourite band Bros back in my teens
    As they sang their hit song WHEN WILL I BE FAMOUS
    Little did I know I'll be famous one day
    To the doubters who doubted me I would just like to say I told you so
    Ha ha ha
    Dreams can come true if you have the will
    Just like me follow your heart
    Wander and explore.....
