I would love to visit Pekhawar

[BLS_1919v2.0]

I have been wanting to go to Peshawar since i left it, 16 years ago. I do not remember Hayatabad at all, though it is my birthplace. I plan to visit in the near future. My mother worked in a medical hospital there, she wants to visit sometime in the next 2 years.

I still have my relatives there.

I guess just try to fit in with others, dont make yourself stand out as a foreigner. Try to stay in good places, at the right time. Dont go during the summer, I have heard the heat is bad, especially when it causes black outs.

Did your mom work at Rahman medical centre? Last I remembered that was the major medical complex there.

Khaariji on your face? How so?

She worked in Khyber Medical College. She did her residency there, then did her medicine practice there too. I was born there

My father also worked in Peshawar too, not sure the name of the medical center.

Khaariji....ohhhhh man. They automatically know. Just by how you naturally act, talk, look, man people automatically know.

Amira, most Pashtuns are extremely tall, naturally well-built, and strong. All you have to do is change your style of walking, wear traditional Pashtun clothes, and try to put a serious face on, I'm sure you will be fine. Are you also visiting the motherland?

P.S
Grow your hair.

putting on a Mad Dog look, and throwing on a mean Langota with Afghan clothes wont be the issue, but what do you mean your style of walking?

Does that mean no cwalking?

This is not concrete, its a tentative plan for next fall...and yes Id like to visit all of Afghanistan

Whats sad is that I want to visit all of the Pakhtun areas from Khyber to Waziristan to Kunduz...but thats not possible

btw, My hair is already long as hell and I got the beard...I look intimidating here in Canada, dont know how much I can intimidate Pekhawarians lol

[AnGaaR]

heres another issue

I am 6"7, now Im sure there are tons of tall Pakhtuns, but I have KHARIJI written all over my pretty face

And my Pashto is spoken in a Canadian accent lol

It is therefore, IMPOSSIBLE, not to draw attention to myself

pretend to be benazir bhutu's cousin caz u r tall tel them jiyai bhutto and they wil let u go



Bro therez np with being tall.. if you see ppl of Momand agency and ppl of chitral, you will forget ur height and your white skin.. they look exactly like europeans or white americans..

Many of Peshwar Pashtuns have lost Pashtunwali due to heavy influence by Hindko in the city. It has been commercialized. Sawabi, Swat,Buner,Malakand,Waziristan you will be treated good here. But in Peshwar Afghan = Khar..

Eh!Really?Hindokowaans are actually not at all that prominent. If anything has heavily influenced the Pashtuns of Pekhawar, it has to be "mutalae Pakistan", "1947 Jashn-e-Azad"i, Urdu, Jinnah/ Allma Iqbal/Sir syed Ahmad Khan, and "PTV 9pm Khabaranama". Still, they speak Pashto, they are as hospitable as any Pashtun should be, and they have typical Pashtun mindset.
I do agree that there were people who mistreated Afghans but then there were also those who embraced them like their brothers.Nonetheless,one should be careful when making such blanket statements.

But I agree, I admire Feroz Afridi and he is from Peshawar.

I admire him too! =)

@Amir:

It is fine if you like to risk your life

[PFgulalai]

if you are that pretty then you better move to Banu .

ROFL!!!

[Amir al Ghaznavi]

Dont listen to any of these morons , just come and be my guest.

I roam here on road at 2 am in the morning and nothing happened to me yet.

I have room mate who is afghan and police could never harass him until now.

Police wouldnt mess unless they could find some valid reason.

[Amir al Ghaznavi]

[Laila]

*Ahem Ahem*

Amir, when you do visit Peshawar. Let me know how it is, i have been so eager to visit for so long.

Dont forget plenty of pixies

If you ever get the chance to go to Hayatabad, let Lailo know

Indeed. Honestly, expect proper treatment. Don't fall for any of the rumors. Good and bad exist in all. You cant judge New York City based on Harlem or Bedford-Stuyvesant now can you? Same notion applies for Peshawar. You can't satisfy everyone. Every city in the world has its pros and cons, but you being a Pashtun and a Pashto speaker, you will receive nothing but love from your Pashtun brothers.

Just don't ask a Peshawari to Su-woop or throw some B's up and I am sure you will be in compliance. So leave the C-walk and all that in Toronto. What I meant by your walk was, don't walk like the man, you are Pashtun to the bone, with that being said, no Peshawaris will disturb your peace.

Bro, pekhawar is an awesome place to visit. my ancenstral village is not far from the city. My family also has a city house in faqirabad which is inside pekhawar so i have the opportunity to chill there also when i go over.

how long do you want to go for and for what reason? sight-seeing? shopping? short-break? education?

pekhawar is a bustling city, there's loads of places you can visit that will cater for just about all your needs.

ignore all the BS about how afghans are treated poorly, all you need to remember is dress well, avoid police and when purchasing anything don't accept the first price ever.

This is the part where we hire some one to beat the crap out of him once he gets there.
