i have come here in an attempt to learn from you all about pashtun culture, history and future, and what your views are about the current state of affairs in the region of nwfp/fata in particular, especially if any of you have recently been there and seen the situation for yourself.
i'm not fond on giving my life story away over the internet, but my quest is personal. i wish to trace my grandfather's steps starting in peshawar, which is difficult, knowing next to nothing about him as he died when i was a baby, while my father was still young. i must say the traits and physique from that side of my family are remarkably strong, though i was born and raised a westerner. i have just recently began learning pashto (is ANY language a breeze?), and the urge to discover gets stronger by the day.
i am at present of no religion though i have had my 'calling', if you know what i mean.
so i will keep reading and learning, and when i feel the urge to ask questions or chip in, i will do so.
manana,
fk.
