I enjoyed the video cuhz ❤ It has been a decade since I last had the opportunity to visit my homeland. Watching the video brought back fond memories, and I find myself longing for the charm of my country and the picturesque city of Kandahar. Greetings from Denmark!
Although, you might have already left Afghanistan. But for your future visits, I would suggest that whenever you want to visit this country, make sure you find a guide who is a native of Pashto or least fluent in the language. Your tour guide did a very bad job by not been able to utter a single meaningful sentence in Pashto. He was not able to make the local people understand. It doesn't leave a good impact on the local people.
@@BrownBoyTheTraveller lot? Every decision is made in Kandahar. From mere police chiefs to governors to cabinet ministers. Everyone is appointed by the emir himself who resides in rural Kandahar.
@@BrownBoyTheTraveller Having a tour guide with full knowledge of the Pashto language is a must if you are visiting Afghanistan. I am happy you've already taken notice of this. A minor correction. The language name is Pashto not Pashtun. Pashtun is the name of the ethnic group who speak Pashto.
@@WordsofHonesty What is the ethnicity of his guide? And is Pashto a national language of Afghanistan? Or at least is it the most spoken & taught in schools?
@@JohnTronto The ethnicity of his tour guide seems to be Tajik. Yes, Pashto is the national language of Afghanistan. It is written on the currency notes/bills of the country known as Afghani. Pashto is spoken mainly in the south, south west, and east of the country with some pockets in the north. Dari (a dialect of Persian) is another official language of Afghanistan and is spoken mainly in the north and central Afghanistan. The capital Kabul is an ethnically mixed city where the predominant language is Dari but most people are bilingual understanding both Dari and Pashto. Medium of education in the predominantly Pashtun areas is Pashto while it is Dari in the non-Pashtun areas. It is highly recommended that a tourist visiting Afghanistan select a guide who is fluent in both the official languages of the country.
@@WordsofHonesty Thanks for the explanation, tesekur or manana right? I guess I have to hire Noor (Travel with Noor) when I visit. Im most interested in nature, arts & crafts also myths like Kandahar giants :).
Hello I am from Kandahar I watched you video but you didn’t see best parts of Kandahar the person with you the guide don’t understand about Pashto language he only speak Persian so if you want to visit best parts of Kandahar you have to find a guide who is able to speak in Pashto and Dari languages and the person who have see all cities of Afghanistan not like this red jacket guide he don’t know anything about Kandahar
