I Went on a Road Trip in Northern Pakistan (Crossing the Shandur Pass)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 чер 2024
- In the second and final part of my ‘road to Chitral’ series, I navigate the lesser-known roads of Pakistan, challenging assumptions and showing the true beauty of this incredible country. From unexpected hurdles to breathtaking landscapes, this was so much more than just a road trip.
The video will take you through Phander, crossing the Shandur pass, onto Mastuj, and lastly, towards the final destination Chitral.
🛣️ Journey Highlights:
* Phander: a hidden gem between Gilgit and Chitral. Great for hiking, as it offers immense natural beauty.
* Shandur Pass: brace yourself for the raw, untamed beauty of the Shandur Pass as I traverse its winding roads.
* Chitral: experience the city marked as a 'red zone' by the Dutch government. Contrary to the warnings, this might be the most hospitable place I’ve visited in Pakistan!
* Unexpected Twists: from road blockages to tricky police checks, I share the unfiltered realities of road tripping in Pakistan.
* Pakistan is Not What you Think: I reveal the truths beyond the warnings.
Thank you, your support means the world.💛

She is such a brave lady. Full marks to her confidence level. I have rarely seen such an adventurous lady like her. It seems that she is travelling without prior planning. As she told that she met her travel partner in a hotel in Hunza.
I'm half Pakistani half Irish. I hope u have a fantastic time. Cheers ❤
You're not tourists for us Guys. You're our Guest. ❤
These videos make me wanna explore the whole northern side of my own country before ever travelling abroad.

Awvee I just wanted to cry not because it's my own country but because what you said about genorusity about the people and kind hearted Muslims ethical people that's because of our religion and that's what we are so much proud of being humble and kind at always and both of you specially you have melted my heart with such a beautiful way of describing whole of your story it's a treat to watch and view the experience from UK
actually they didnt see so much foreigners that why they stare at u. and nothing is there to be scared. they are the people of respect and honour. and my Mom told me the story that when my Mom came 1st time in our village in Pakistan. All women of village came to see my Mom and gave gifts and hugs and love. bcz my Mom was also foreigner.😊❤. i hope You both will enjoy ur trip❤
The fact that its all shot on a phone makes it 10x better

Hi Flora! I rarely find myself commenting on UA-cam; typically, I prefer to immerse myself in the content. However, having just completed watching all the previous vlogs, including this latest one, I felt compelled to express my admiration. The storytelling and the exceptional quality of your vlogs are truly unparalleled. Your work is amazing, and I encourage you to continue delivering such outstanding content. Keep up the excellent work!

Greetings from Pakistan. Wow! That was another marvelous vlog. Simply amazing! And those sentences that you utter are out of this world making me emotional once again. Great great effort. Best wishes to your channel and yourself. With warm personal regards
Where the landscapes are so majestic, even the mountains might be getting altitude envy! But for real, Pakistan is one of those countries I am wishing my travel dart would land because it looks like a real-life adventure novel - from the stunning valleys of Hunza to the azure lakes of Skardu, every step feels like a chapter in the epic tale of Pakistan's breathtaking north.
The commentary of Your soothing voice paired with those wonderful music and beautiful scenery lighten my day up every time I watch your content especially in these depressing times of genocides.
Never seen any better vlogging content then yours, I feel incredibly fortunate to have found your channel. Please, continue to share your enchanting journey and sprinkle a bit of magic in our lives. Thank you for brightening my darkest days.
Wow that was such an amazing video to watch. It made my day and it was so relax & calming you’re doing an absolutely wonderful job and showing us around on your journey. Ohh my god! Northern Pakistan is so beautiful and it’s on my bucket list. Love from England 🏴

I am extremely excited to watch your videos because you are in that part of Pakistan which most people do not go due to being too far and mountainous. I have not gone yet. When I saw your conditions during the hitchhike and journey, if I had been there I felt dizzy. But thanks to you both, on a journey in Northern Pakistan which was difficult for even locals of Pakistan. Hi, from Rawalpindi.
It's such a beautiful country worth visiting and people are also very kind and friendly. I love Insane beauty of Pakistan.
