  • It’s finally time to head back to Northern Pakistan, and explore the stunning beauty of Hunza.
    Although this journey was supposed to be different, life had other plans, and I’m trying to embrace being a solo female traveler again.
    In this video I dive deep into the culture and warm hospitality of Hunza, discovering its magic from a whole new perspective.
    A HUGE thank you to everyone who made this video possible:
    *Sunny aka / : Thank you for your incredible kindness and for sharing the true essence of Hunza with me.
    *Best motorbike teacher Syed aka / majestik.sb
    *Leif Larsen Music Center (LLMC) in Hunza aka / llmchunza . Make sure to pay them a visit in Altit whenever you're around!
    𝙄𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙫𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙤:
    *Solo Travel Challenges: From doing laundry with a view to adjusting to solitude, see how I navigated the ups and downs of solo travel.
    *Local Culture: Meet Sunny and his dog Hachi, and see our visit to a local school to promote animal awareness. Discover the inspiring stories of women at Ciqam, an initiative empowering local women.
    *New Skills: Watch as I try something new and attempt to learn how to ride a motorbike.
    *Solo Hiking: Join me on a solo hike (and see me fail), reigniting my love for travel and adventure amidst the most beautiful scenery.
    *Music School: Experience the healing power of music as I visit a music school in Hunza, a perfect end to this transformative journey.
    This trip has been about more than just travel; it’s been a journey of growth, self-discovery, and embracing new experiences. Whether you're a solo traveler or just love exploring new places, this video is for you.

    People in Pakistan are mostly stuck in politics while sharing things but I'm proud of "SUNNY" that he is making awareness about sharing love with not just humans but also animals. He is such a well educated man and has great level of patriotism. So much respect towards him.💝

    ۔Pakistan🇵🇰 is not just country. This is a world where you will find a new adventure at every turn. Every person has a different world, no matter how worried each face is,But the guest will always be greeted with a smile. We have only one love to give to others, so we will continue to give it to others.We are loving people and every guest will get love from us and that too pure love. So I request the media of the whole world to show our real face to people and not to spread hatred to increase their ratings.
    We are not terrorists. We may be poor, but we are not terrorists at all.
    Sister, every Pakistani who sees you will have the same wish that one day you will be our guest and stay in our house, even if it is just for a short break.We are people who love humanity. My request to the people to whom my words are reaching is that once you come to our country, let us give you such love that you will have happy moments in your life in Pakistan...Maulana Rumi says , (that Love is a bridge between you and everything of the world)So we all should plant the seeds of love today,our future generations will be able to flourish from them❤❤

    Wow. Blown away by the quality and the contents of your production. You’re so watchable because you connect with people and nature and project positivity, love, compassion and kindness. Sunny is a philosopher and I’d love to meet him one day and learn from him. His perspective on life and world view is so broad. When he questioned ‘why Flora is so blessed and why that working lady was not’ is a question that every searching soul should be asking. It’s a kind of question where finding the answer may not be possible or important, but the quest for the answer takes you down the path of enlightenment and enrichment of your soul.
    Syd the motorbiker also sounded a progressive person. It is so refreshing to see people like these who defy the growing pressures of the regressive and mind numbing interpretations of religious indoctrination. These people are the finest specimen of human race, and you’ve discovered these gems because you yourself are a gem of a human being. I hope I can get to meet you one day and learn from your experiences. Hopefully this won’t be very difficult because Holland is not far from the UK where I am :)
    With lots of well wishes and waiting for your next masterpiece ! :)

    I don’t know why you feel so in despair here, and on the verge of like giving up, and that be in Pakistan. Cause i have seen so many people, especially the foreigners, who find the true motives and grounds to live by, of their lives here, most of ‘em, and when they cogitate over the lives of Pakistani people, and how they manage everything so well. That’s when they, the outsiders, start to be grateful for what they have. Do not give up. Just like you said, ‘it’s okay to give up for a while’, but not on life. One bad day/week/month/year doesn’t mean your whole life is going to be the same. Good luck. Chin-chin lady!

    Though i would recommend you to go to naltar valley and explore. You will be amazed to see the place. i was there in 2021 and felt that this place is so magical and peaceful that one connects with god.
    Go to zero point from where you can have a complete view of the valley.
