After visiting 191 countries over the last 9 years, I can confidently say that AFGHANISTAN is the cheapest of them all! I have spent 3 weeks traveling around this beautiful Central Asian nation, and while there are so many things to admire about its culture and history -- the affordable prices make it THAT much more enjoyable.
In this video, I take you around the Western city called Herat (with my buddy Thomas from @YesTheory to purchase several random items so you guys can see how cheap it is!
In case you're wondering, the next cheapest countries (in my opinion) are Bangladesh, Pakistan, Vietnam, Uzbekistan, and Iran -- what do you think are the cheapest countries? Comment below!

I pray peace returns in Afghanistan soon. A country so rich in culture deserves much more. 🇮🇳❤🇦🇫
The country is so beautiful and sounds like a fun place if it weren't for the danger of going there.

Afghan properties: $7

Yeah, but then it gets bombed by your highschool dropout cousin the next day.

@@alukuhito u have never been to Afghanistan So plz Dont predict what will u see go and see it ur self yes i agree Afghanistan is not safe but u know there is only 0.000005% chance if u see a bomb blast with ur own eyes.

It's not 7 dollars bro everything is not that cheap
I like how drew literally always avoid the conflict 🇦🇫
When you buy anything from poor people, give them some tips or extra money. The greatness of Human is not being human but being humanity.

Because your actions devalued their currency and forced them to extreme poverty. Then you go there get greeted still because they have no idea what you did to them and you enjoy your relative " richness of dollar" but moral poverty overall

@Din Joekhannaz Afghans are tough, not bulletproof
80 cents for a beard trim?! Here in Norway a haircut costs like $50
If it was that expensive I would rather cut my own hair.
But in rural India a hair cut cost 0.55 even cheper than Afghanistan 😂😂
you get what you pay for.
Bro $50!!!!??!! What do they even do to hair?
In the philippines itll cost like $0.50
thanks for showing the positive sides of our homeland.
on every province of our homeland you will faced poor, harrassed people with warm and rich hearts and they always welcome guest.
hospitality has a deep root in our culture.
most welcome to our coutry. 😍
It’s like I’ve seen the world through your videos. This one particularly being one of my favourites. Thanks for doing a commendable job and making my lockdown time in this pandemic a bit interesting.

Peoples of Afganisthan are very sober & rich in heart. Nice country, nice people & I wish to visit this country someday. Best wishes from India.
I'll never trust mainstream media again, every country they deem "dangerous" is actually amazing! I remember how "dangerous" Mexico was, I hitchhiked all over the southern country and had the best time of my life, still my favorite place to travel. My next move, AFGHANISTAN!
You should never trust media in general as what was once good is now only used for manipulation, bad things happen all over the world it doesn’t define a place.
Im coming too. (I lived in Colombia, Bolivia and Brazil, everyone that watches too much news thought I was in danger, but I really wasnt)
I agree that the media def makes other nations seem like shit but some parts of Mexico are extremely dangerous. Just because you survived doesn't mean everyone does
Afghanistan is extremely dangerous. I don't know what you're on about but this is not a place you want to be hitchhiking around. Mexico is different. Cartels don't want to get mixed up with white tourists because it's pointless attention. The taliban would go out of their way to kill you and send your head back on a platter.
You're seeing the good parts of Afghanistan. Don't get it wrong.
Another fact about the media: once in the Netherlands the media told us that memes were racist pictures of non white people
i like how everything is 50 afs, but 50 afs are like 60, 70, 80 cents xD
Google it noob
lol true.
"40 afs, its like a dollar right?" - "yes."
"its about 30 afs" - "oh so its only 30-40 cents!"
It’s 60 - 70 cents

You can also hang out feeling comfortable with no local with you. It just might looks scary but isn’t scary at all
Is it me or did the exchange rate of 50 Afs constantly changed throughout the video.
inflation lol
It probly did.. yrs ago JA was diffrent ON THE STREET TRADE (BANKS N HOTELS DO AVE . MNTHLY RATES OR WK IF LUCKY... THIS WAY THEY GOT TIME TO CHANGE AND MAKE EVEN MORE MONEY THEN THE ONES ON ST.

they smoke too much. that is distorting their math calculations

I love the fact you don't travel just for the photo. You live the city. Even if it means getting stoned with some random strangers. That shows humbleness and curiosity, and not a need for another passport stamp.

At least he went there before all this crap happend

Dope ass video. I would love to visit Afghanistan. This is like the Afghani version of a Mexican kickback lol
Amazing culture of afghanistan... Love from India 🇮🇳
I think Drew often falls in the typical anglocentrist-rich attitude towards poor countries: like "oh, look how exotic it's that, they must be very happy living like this, with so little worries of the modern world".
Yeah dude is ignorant af. All these videos of how cheap things are further belittles the people. Good job exploiting them for those views though
I think part of the problem is America's obsession with putting a positive spin on everything. There's optimism and then there's American optimism which is another term for delusion. I was watching Afghan women giving their babies away to Americans to give them a better life, I was watching people cling on to the helicopter that was flying away to safety because they were so desperate to either escape or at least die from the mostly peaceful fall. People are not happy here.
Drew is not an anglo.... take a look at his face.
Sounds like you have watched one of his videos and immediately believe you know his entire world view intimately. Talk about small minded lol...
"The chaos is so beautiful" "look how poor and happy they are"
There's nothing more international than getting stoned together. Looks like one of my trips to Morocco.

I’m from Germany and we got a lot of ppl from Afghanistan and all they tell you is about the war. Now I got a different picture of it.
Ddss
for documents 😂😂😂😂
Aghan ppl there are trying to get not deport to afg that's why they're saying things like that.
@@badgenius89000
I mean I don’t think they would get deport to Afg just because they’re also telling about good things. They should actually start to talk more about the nice things about their country so ppl wouldn’t only think of war.
Also we barely have any problems in Germany with people from Afghanistan. They have another culture and all that but compared to other refugees they are very calm and nice.
God, when you are born as Nepali, you automatically understand Afghani, Urdu, Hindi and a dozen other languages. I just realized that I'm multi lingual.
AFGHANISTAN language is Dari/pashto not urdu/hindi they are in Central Asia persians/Turkic they don't understand urdu or hindi their pashto is also different then paksitan pashto
It’s not Afghani literally no language is called Afghani
@Edu Exam Aryan doesn't means mongols do you even know what does Aryan means ,If you educated little more you would know Farsi and Afghanistan pashto is not related to any languages you mentioned,Pakistan pashto is mix of urdu they can't understand Afghanistan pashto because its not indo-Aryan and Afghanistan was called at one point Aryana (Aryan) Afghanistan doesn't have 1 ethnic group that is same like SouthAsians ethnic groups,Afghanistan was persia before every Afghanistan group is from CentralAsia and the Country itself is 95%+ in CentralAsia,Afghans are Aryan/Persians/Turkic which non of SouthAsians are one of them pakistanis are all indo-Aryan and other groups same as india
How come

Hazaras are Afghans. One of the major ethnic groups.
Hi Drew, I really enjoy your videos and think you're very courageous. The scariest thing I've ever done was taking the wrong bus which took me through a dodgy area in Guadalajara, Mexico. The only issue I have with this video is that you don't present the cheap prices in relationship to how much the average Afghani citizen can afford. I'm also not sure how I would feel if you called my country the cheapest in the world.
