A Trip Inside Taliban Controlled Afghanistan

"Backpacker Ben" - "bald and bankrupt" decide to visit Afghanistan. Here are both their videos starting with Backpacker Ben.




Something I observed with both of their many videos are the people. No matter where they go people seem friendly enough. Leaving politics aside the problem seems to be with their governments which create distrust and resentment among others. Seems to me most people just want to get through the day rather then be fraught with larger issues outside of their own immediate existence. The same could be useful for folks in this country. If we focus ourselves on our immediate personal sphere we might all be better off for it.

That said I'm most grateful of these two and others like them who take us to places and meeting people we'd never otherwise.
