    Yes I have also read it that Yousafzai in general migrated from Kandahar to the present day Pakistan and India including Swat.The original inhabitants of Swat defeated by Yousafzais called Swatis(also Pashtuns) now live in Hazara division mainly Mansehra area.

    Swat and Kandahar have many many things in common. Language, history, ethnicity, genealogy, anthropology, religion, culture, Pashtunwali and many other things. Indeed all Pashtuns share all these aspects thats why Pashtuns can be termed as an extended family of 70 million ,all like cousins.

    Swatians speak hard dialect not soft dialect of Kandahar. A very notable word is JO in Swatian accent as they may say/ Jo saba ba zam. Jo ta zama malgarey ye etc. This jo is a starter or a conjunction without meaning. Also por gharhis(people who live beyond swat river) use a word KOGO for Mr and others some times make a fun of it.

    Cuisine of swat is very distinct. You will find the most common dish as rice with yogurt or ghee(asil ghwarhi). Chokanrh or warjaley(rice with greens) is a typical dish there.

      True about the cuisine. We call it warjaley. Porgharri means people across the river call it chokaanrr and saaginrray also. Hay badlun how do you about swat. This is very typical.

                      I have very very good memories of Swat. There was a time when I was highly interested in Para-Psychology, Hypnotism, Mesmerism, Occult sciences,Spiritual sciences, meditations, Telepathy even black magic and Bengali jadu. I had a master from Mingora Swat and I used to visit him frequently and used to stay with him for weeks.

                      He and other masters used to send me to places like Mahodand lake(The most beautiful place I have ever seen on the surface of the earth, pure unadulterated natural beauty), Salendh sar(Near Manrhai Goda, Dir Swat border), Elum ghar sar, Sedgai danda near Chpryal Matta, Shagai near Gat Peuchar Matta and Qalagey near Dir Swat border and other places for doing various exercises and practices.

                      Thats why I learnt a lot about all these remote places and about the natural beauty, culture, history and cuisine of Swat.

                        Very true... these all places are really beautiful. But where do you originally come from ?
