    The landscape in the northern part of Iraq looks stunning. I was in 03/04 in Iraq and was stationed near the beautiful Euphrates river. One of my highlights was the ancient city Uruk established 4000 BC. It's located at Al-Warka, Muthanna.

    I must have missed your videos on Kurdistan! It was nice to see this video.
    I went to Kurdistan in July 2019 and had one of the best experiences ever. This region is full of history, culture, delicious food, hospitality unmatched anywhere else. Locals would always invite over for tea or dinner and they always wanted to engage in conversation. I did hire a local guide to take me around and he was great. I’m an American female and had no problem saying so, they were always even more interested in knowing more and were glad to hear Americans want to travel there. I was always asked where I was from, not sure if that was just because I don’t look white, I’m a light skin toned Latina and had dyed my hair with blonde highlights a few months before.
