    This is genuinely one of my favorite videos of all time. Media is quick to depict places like these as dangerous and filled with terrorists, and it breaks my heart to see it affecting the people. I can't lie, it is hard to break those biases, and it's nice to see a fellow new yorker go do this. Such nice people and such nice culture!!
    I'm glad to see that Iraq is like any other country and might be a place worth visiting for me :)

    I just came back from Baghdad last week and it was amazing. As a black British man I didn’t know what to expect but I was absolutely stunned by this beautiful country and it’s people. Iraqi people are the kindest, coolest people. Iraq will always have a special place in my heart and can’t wait to get back out there again!

    I am a university student from Iraq with a passion for hosting international tourists at my home. It’s a new experience that I truly enjoy. As a medical student fluent in English, I can easily communicate and make your stay comfortable. I also have a car, so there’s no need for you to rent a taxi. I provide a dedicated room in my house for my guests.
    Being a local, I can introduce you to Iraq’s rich culture, traditional cuisine, and take you to visit the most amazing places here. My goal is to ensure you have a memorable and authentic experience. You’ll feel at ease and welcomed in my home, where I strive to create a friendly and hospitable atmosphere.

    Kool video man, I always loved the fact that Abraham the father of the Jews was an Iraqi, thanks for the insight into the new Iraq!
