- In this video Chloe Jade Travels to Afghanistan under the t4liban rule
This video was recorded over 2 and a half weeks in November 2022
This is the REALITY of an AMERICAN WOMAN traveling to AFGHANISTAN under T4LIBAN RULE
Afghanistan is incredibly overlooked when it comes to the beauty of the country, only though of for what it is portrayed in the media and in movies.
Similar to what I have spoken about with Syria, people have dehumanized refugees when they have no idea how much these Afghan refugees have given up
I hope to share the realities of my trip, so you can understand how incredible this country is, and why Afghans would never CHOOSE to leave their country, and why many feel they've been forced to, in order to give their families a fair chance.
The main video is 48 minutes long, with a 30 minute Q&A at the end.
Please let me know any additional questions in the comments and I will do my best to answer.
Thank you for all your support 💜

It's so sad that the Afghan people cannot have things that we take for granted so often. Thank you for showing this.
yes unfortunately it is poorest country in the world . Hope they will do well in the future
At least they're not bombed by us air force
LOL she was so scared that she had to whisper during the entire video 😂
This country was invaded three times by the British and by the Soviets and the US in recent history. It’s non stop war. It takes generations of peace to rebuild.
At least they have safety from thieves unlike in the United States. They take their crime laws very seriously over there.
i hope nadia is safe and sound. She's a gem and i loved her confidence. It's sad to see how inaccessible the outside world is for them right now.
Hi Chloe, I am an afghan and love watching all vlogs about Afghanistan. However your Vlog was exceptionally the best one for many reasons. First of all It made me very emotional that If I go there as a woman currently, I can’t experience half of what you showed us so it felt empowering still to see you fulfill my dream.
You did an excellent job by showing many different clips with the most relevant information about each place and Event that took place. And I watched the whole video which i am usually incredibly impatient for. Thank you so much for showing us all this❤
It is sad. There were many Afghan women who studied in colleges here in North India who left when the COVID-19 pandemic started here in India and were never able to return.
Why all of you not start a protest?
Like iran
@@gaeigIndia can go to hell
@@gamergamer-nk7mu Yeah, start protest in armed country with strict rules, good idea

That is comprehensive. Thank you.
I appreciate the respect and sensitivity with which you describe Afghanistan and the Afghan people. It left me feeling sad for this beautiful country full of life and history that was overtaken by an exteemist regime :( thank you for this!
so your safe because your naked? your safe because u drink alcohol? your safe because you sleep around every weekend with different mens? your safe because your body been used by different men all the time?
afghan womans are covered their mens are earning money for their mother their sister their wife and kids they are oppressed? i say the laugh is on you liars, your country got more suiciders in daily basis then any muslim countries, you ppl are the oppressed, at the you buy a dog to live with because you cannot trust and live together with ur partners your partners are ur dogs u eat and sleep with them
your divorce rate is the highest
check muslim couples they live together til the day they die, they have kids together and their kids looks after their mother’s and fathers when they become older
but you westerners putting your mums into nursing homes your farhers into nursing home running away from one another, go worry about your future because when you die your dead body will be in hell forever
muslims will be in heaven forever those who obeys Allah and follows the way of islam
we are the winners. you ppl are the losers
Thank you for showing how beautiful Afghanistan is and the people living there. I felt like I wanted was to touch the buildings that are hundreds of years old. It’s so sad to see how the historical places were destroyed. I never knew there were Buddhist statues there. It must have been amazing when it existed before it was destroyed. I highly enjoyed this video❤
so many historical places are still there at least and the architecture is just sooo impressive. I hope some day it becomes a little easier for the "average" traveler to get there :)
And thank you so much for your nice comment ❤
@@Chloejadetravels You’re welcome! You are really good at travel vlogging. Cant wait to see other places you will visit in the future. Stay safe!🙂
She is lying Afghanistan is open for everyone and everyone can come here and enjoy
@@Imran-oc1nj how did I not say that it’s open for people to come enjoy?… it’s obvious you didn’t either understand the video or you’re just commenting and not watching it.
As a woman born in New York City I feel like one of the luckiest women in the world. Lately I haven’t been feeling great about the city but watching this gave me more appreciation for being a native here and free to do as I please in many ways with many resources. I give thanks to my ancestors and the entire universe for placing me right here right now safe sound and free. There is so much beauty there in Afghanistan and so much rich cultural history even if much of it has been suppressed. Thank you for sharing your journey with us 💚💚💗💗
We Afghans don't want your life. This lady lied about being Canadian and her translator or she herself lied about what those T'al'ib's said.
Thank you so much for sharing your journey to Afghanistan to the world. Through your eyes, everyone here is able to see the real Afghanistan. I really appreciate all the effort that you did to show us the beauty of Afghanistan and to make this hour long video. Thank you again, from the bottom of my heart. ❤
P.S: The bread looks sooooo delicious! Looking for Afghan recipes now! ❤
Wow! You just became my new favorite travel RUclipsr! Your bravery for doing that which I, as an American woman myself, thought was impossible, by travelling as a woman to Afghanistan under Taliban rule so that you could open your mind and your clearly compassionate, beautifully loving heart to the Afghan people is truly commendable! Thank you, so much, for sharing your journey with us, and in so doing sharing the voices, spirits, and culture of a people whose voices and spirits, both, it seems, have been so sadly quieted by the Taliban's rise to power! You really helped me open my own eyes, heart, and mind to this incredible country, and I thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for helping me do so! 💖
I have watched it twice! It’s so interesting and emotionally moving. I could feel the heaviness and sadness at times. I love that you added the QnA it really clarifies things and I really appreciate your heartfelt sharing. You are a very brave caring young woman and I love your videos so much!!!❤
Your voice is always so calm and the sheer intention of simply being a genuine informer really gets to me. Thanks for showing your perspective and showing what a beautiful country Afghanistan is! One request though - you have been to so many places and most of them are in your RUclips shorts. Would really really really be awesome if you could compile them (like for Afghanistan).
Again. Thank you so much for existing. For keeping it simple and honest and the best:)
I felt the same “pessimistic“ way when traveling through Palestine. Especially now, my heart is aching so much. ❤️🩹
The mountains in Afghanistan are even more spectacular and unique when you do the actual hiking with your best buddies. I can never get enough of it. It’s an experience like no other.
Hope your enjoyed your visit in Afghanistan, Chloe! Btw you nailed those head scarfs Chloe they were made for you 😊
New subscriber Afghan Australian
Thank you for sharing your experiences in Afghanistan! I really appreciate getting to see this side of the country through your travels. It’s a beautiful country.
Thank you so much for bringing us along on your travels in Afghanistan, and sharing your knowledge of history, art, culture, religions, and their diverse people. I appreciate and value how you respectfully explore and present your information and events in a cultural and spiritually respectful manner. Top tier documentary work. 👏 Thanks for sharing and letting us all armchair explore life, countries, and the world with you. ❤❤❤
Your Afghanistan video and edition is really one of the best travels you made. Because of its history, unique culture, and beautiful historical places.
Thank you so much for sharing this and your debrief at the end. Also I so respect that you are donating proceeds of the video
I really appreciate you making this video! Such raw and real content. Really informative
You did such an amazing job with this video! Thanks for sharing your honest experience and respecting the local's privacy. I look forward to seeing more of your content. (:
Thank you for this hugely interesting video. It feels like a wonderful holiday present to your subscribers. I've been to Sudan, Zimbabwe, Saudi Arabia and maybe one day Afghanistan. Your mode of travel is an inspiration.
What a wonderful video, thank you for taking us along for the ride 🤍 Afghanistan looks like a beautiful place, hope you will have a chance to return if you so choose and best of luck on your next adventure!!
Thank you so much for your work! I teach Afghani students in the US and love learning more about their home. You are very courageous!
I totally wanted to see a longer version about your trip to Afghanistan. Thanks for this! I’m glad you made it back safely. My heart goes out to those people. I wish things were better over there. I learned a lot, though.
Afghanistan currently has the best security, there is no problem...
I'm glad you video with your voice soft and not annoyingly boisterous 😊
Wonderful video, I really loved the respect and grace you showed when speaking of this country and people. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences!
I really appreciate to be able to see the current Afghanistan through your lens :)
Your vlogs feel like as if I am the one who is traveling even though i am sitting in my couch and chilling with your videos
I must say that you are one of the best travel channels on youtube
ahhh thank you so much 💜
What an educational video! I have learned a lot about things! Please keep doing long videos; they are more insightful. Thanks for your work and for showing us the world through your eyes!
such a beautiful intriguing and thoughtful video thank you so much for sharing this incredible experience with us hope you continue to go on even more journeys as cool as this one :)
I don’t normally comment on vids like this but I wanted to commend you for the raw footage you took. I really enjoyed you explaining everything on voiceover and showing all the foods you ate and what you wore. I send my prayers to the people of Afghanistan. Sometimes I forget how great I have it in the US… I pray these people’s economy strengthens and that they can be freed from the Taliban rule.
Their economy is boosted when sanctions are lifted. If all the countries of the world cannot defeat the Taliban, will the Afghan people be able to do so? Then Afghanistan was liberated two years ago from the United States.
I really enjoyed following your journey and your truly objective approach to the afghan culture. It was refreshing to watch. Thank you!
I just watched the whole video, thank you so much! I can’t believe you shot a +1h long video by yourself! You’re voice is so important, and you taught me a lot about Afghanistan. Just subscribed, can’t wait to see what adventure you’ll embark on next :)
You have the BEST channel for travel content. I don’t really watch travel content because of how cringey it can be but you are so respectful and insightful and give amazing real life perspective. Looking forward to seeing many more countries with you
thank you so much that means a lot
Well said! Especially Afghanistan videos are full of narcissistic and egoistic men boasting about their cool in such an absurd situation.
This is amazing, thank you for creating and compiling all this footage. Very interesting plus your voice is so relaxing
this is a wonderful video, thank you! its my dream to visit every country in the world someday. thank you for being so kind and compassionate and showing us what its like
I watched through your entire video and do not regret it. Thank you for your hard work! 😊
so glad you were ok with the heater! thats exactly how my father passed away in afghanistan during the winter
Thank you for showcasing the people and their hospitality and beauty. The beauty of the country. I loved my time there as a soldier helping the women in secret ❤
This is so inspiring, I've watched a few of your videos and you go to some of the most under appreciated places and they look amazing. I love watching you because you seem so generally respect of local traditions and customs while not allowing yourself to forget the harsh reality of these places. This particular one struck me because I'm fascinated by the countries of the old Silk Road and I would love to visit (I'd probably be too scared though).
Thank you for showing us a snapshot of the culture and people of Afghanistan, and helping the world not forget about them❤
Wow, that's so unfiltered and educational. Thank you for sharing your experience with others! It was very interesting to watch!
Wow, this video was so insightful and powerful. Thank you for being so respectful to the Afghan people and of the political climate. It is so complex and I'm glad you gave it a nuanced perspective.
best afghan travel video i’ve seen yet, and i’ve seen a lot. than you, you’ve earned a new subscriber
I haven’t enjoyed watching something this much in a very very long time. Thank you so much for this amazing video, i never thought i’d see Afghanistan. You’re great thank you ❤
This video blows EVERY single other one I’ve seen out of the water… it’s so real and you gave honest opinions and pain to d such a real picture. I’ve dreamed of making the same journey and your sharing this is very inspirational
This was simply fantastic !!! Thank you for sharing this experience with the world ❤
Thank you for showing this. Was very well done. It's so beautiful there and the food looks wonderful. What sadness going on there. I just found your channel and I'm happy I did.
Food looks amazing!!! Beautiful architecture and people look friendly ❤
Loved this! Most of the vlogs that we see of Afghanistan are from male vloggers. I can only imagine how different there experience must have been. This vlog was amazing. A peek into reality
Your Afghanistan journey was full beauties and amazing scenes. The way you beautifully explored ancient places of Afghanistan, traditional foods, culture, and hospitality of its people with foreigners was fantastic . Afghanistan is amazing country. Keep it on....
I never know the country is so beautiful. The people are so humble and ofcourse the food you shown. I would love to go and explore. Nice vedeo 👌
You are such an amazing journalist! Loved the long content! Great work!
She’s not a journalist. She just likes to act like one.
@@tiffanyregaudie3261 Why are you dissing her, she has said she is NOT a journalist but documenting here journeys, no need to be salty!!
Hey I just watched your video and it was so touching I really felt the moments especially the sadness in the air you mentioned. I slowly felt it and it's really heartbreaking to see these beautiful people suffer so much.
Very nice video and I love your voice over and the style of the video, especially if you’re watching it on a mobile. It’s good enjoy your travel around the world. God bless
Wow. Amazing. Thank you for such a courageous trip to show this.
thank you for taking that risk and visiting this beautiful country for us!
You are very brave. I clicked on this video not expecting to watch the entire thing, but I did. I see some people blasting you in the comments but unfortunately that comes with their culture. Don’t take it to heart. I wish you the best
At least we don't rape them unlike indian who rape their guests who go to india as tourist like Amy Manson tourist from England who went to mumbai and was raped by 4 indians or Carolina De Paolo 24 years old tourist from Germany raped in delhi ,india many others
I’ve never met a happy hindu. not once. They're always depressed, suicidal, being obsessed with Muslims,absorbing nationalism and drowning in endless trolling in Muslim channels to numb their pain.they're frustrated and can't get sex.their lives are their punishments
Culture? If I or any community were preached to about how God will condemn me to eternal hellfire for virtually every pleasurable action 24/7 I too would develop this culture.
You documented very well. The middle east is enchanting to me, despite the tension. Id love to see it one day.
I just found your page today. My wife and I watched the Antarctica video first and then this one. I find your videos very informative and well made. I love the history and the buildings and views but find it very sad that women don't really have lives there. Very sad. Keep up the great work
Loved every second of your video!!! 💖
Thank you for sharing this amazing Journey to Afghanistan ❤
Watching the video, I can feel how pick up on some of that intensity you talked about. Thank you for authenticity and sincere opinions. I enjoyed watching this.
Thanks so much for watching w an open mind and heart ❤️
Wow. Thank you for the great video!
Excited for this one ❤
Why is she whispering like the taliban is standing behind her 😅. Nice video. Brave of her to go
I mean tbh they were basically standing behind her a lot of times but that’s just her voice lol
Thank you for showing beautiful side of our Country
Amazing vlog. Thank you for sharing this trip.
I've never seen a travel video so good
i just watched this entire video i just want to let you know that it was really informative and interesting to watch
Thankyou for your fabulous video. Love your work.
I admire you for your courage. You made a very interesting video. Thank you so much ❤
Girl you are fearless . May G'd protect you on your journeys . It was nice to see Afgan and its people . I'm jewish American probably not the favorite of talibns so i will never go visit , but admire and love all of G'ds children. May humanity recognize the beauty divinity in diversity. While respecting history, a collective future and each other. I pray for peace ✌️
What do you mean by Jewish American ?
You are an American who practices Judaism ?
Such an interesting and good video!! Thanks for sharing
What an eye opening video. Amazing, thank you for showing this country from a woman’s point of view.
I hope the Afghan women who owned the Ice cream shop is still save. I am worried for her💔
Hi Chloe, if you wear hijab in any more of your travels, you might have an easier time keeping the hijab in place with hijab magnets and, if you wear an undercap, you can attach the hijab to the undercap with wardrobe tape. These tools should make it easier to wear hijab if there's wind or if you're moving a lot.
Just now watching this video. U are really bold woman. So brave to travel Taliban country where they don't feel women as human. Happy watching your videos dear 🥰🥰
It’s very common in the market places for shopkeepers to rinse their glass of water or tea with water and throw it outside their shops, which in many cases land on someone walking outside. It has happened to me and I have see it happen to others. I don’t think it was because you were not covering your face.
My guide told me that was the reason so that’s why I said it. I had my face covered there earlier in the day and had switched my scarf so wasn’t covering face anymore and just forgot and he didn’t want to force me and didn’t realize I just forgot. Anyway. I hope that’s it. But there was snickering afterwards so that why we suspected it. Kandahar was different from the rest of what I experienced unfortunately.
yes, some parts are alot more strict and Kandahar is one of those places. But disrespecting a women in a verbal or physical way (in this case throwing water) would be considered a big crime. No one would even dare to do something like that deliberately of the fear of being harmed by the family of the women. A women is an honour in Afghanistan. I'm not saying that it didn't, maybe it did happen in your case. but I just wanted to point out that, it would be very unusual and risky for someone to do that to a random woman@@Chloejadetravels
Thank you so much for posting longer content. I really enjoyed listening and watching your experience compared to other Western women who have visited. It is really great to get another perspective. Please continue posting longer content. I am now going to watch the remaining videos. 🍿
Thank you so much I definitely will make at least one for each country I go to :) they just take longer to push out 😂
Super sad to watch, my heart goes to all women are there. Super scary you are brave
I’m so glad I found your channel. This is amazing. It is such a beautiful place, but so sad that the Taliban has control :(
😂😂😂🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
why is it sad
@@fdsfsdgsdgfor the same reason people think the world's ending
Yes so sad that your country can't terrorize the afgan people anymore. fking hypocrite western terrorist.😂
Taliban is whole afghanistan
Recently came across your channel and I love your content 😊 I really appreciate how genuine and respectful you are towards the culture of the lands you visit. I don’t sense any arrogance or judgement in you, based on all the things you say. Your respect for their customs and beliefs regardless of how different they might be than yours, is so refreshing to see ❤️ looking forward to more content 😊
I’m curious if you’re willing to share, what’s your ethnic background? You identified yourself as a woman of color in another short, so it made me wonder.
Afghanistan land is full of wonders, excitements and beautiful places. You experience beautiful nature, traditional Afghani foods and delicious and landscapes in mountains. Enjoy it.
Love your videos ❤❤
As an afghan, thank you. Made my day ❤
I have read many books regarding Afghanistan. I’m so happy you went! My dream is to mountain bike there and be the first female mountain biker on many of those mountains and passes. Maybe one day. I love my afghan friends and we are always thinking about you ❤
Very interesting footage and as always, I love getting insights into the real live Afghanistan day to day. Question: do you have roots in this part of the world?
I believe she said in her Iraq video that she has some Iraqi ancestry
Great video thank you!
Great video!
I'm so happy you did this video. I have seen other women on RUclips with a lot of privilege painting afghanistan a certain way, ignoring the plight of actual afghany women.
Chloe I just talked to you on TT about Afghan. So weird I have picks from standing on this tank. Beautiful wonderous place. X (aka bananaman)
This video is gonna blow up
Love your content.
Thank you so much :)
This is very interesting but also super emotionally exhausting, especially hearing about that girl in the displaced persons camp. I hope she's ok.
I would love to go!
Thank u 🙏
i've really enjoyed your videos! i've travelled to every Asian country from india eastward and i do want to try central Asia next. Where could i find your travel guide?
Wow that’s awesome! & His IG is @sardar_sameem :) such a great man
That was absolutely incredible. Watching this made me feel
like I was there with you lol. Thank you for such an amazing travel doc. On a side note, I was just so confused by the Taliban rules. Why do they hate women so much? Banning of all kinds of music? How they expect to have a functioning society where women aren't allowed anywhere not even to work to help support their families in a such a poor country? My heart breaks for the women of that beautiful country 💔
Because apparently God will punish women on the day of judgement and condemn them to eternal hellfire if they weren't modest enough on this planet and so the lesser chances of being seen by men, the more secure the path to Paradise after the day of judgement. Likewise for people listening to music because music tends to be more supportive of "immodesty".
hey thankyou for this wonderful journey from your stay, do you habe a guide or contact that you can recommend for visiting?
My family went this year in October to Afghanistan for one month and women were allowed without man on the streets. And also there was girls going to school.
Depends what city and what age. Some places have school open for girls in elementary but not anything higher. Some places have school open for girls in university but no high school, etc. it’s complicated
I will say you looked incredible and graceful wearing what you wore there…the fabrics are incredible. I do find the full face covering oppressive. But I just want to say the style of dress in a lot of ways is quite lovely.
What a stunningly beautiful place, with such a sad history and present. I know its just a small thing compared to the things gping on there, but imagine music being illegal.
