lol, sorry again. im stepping on everyone's toes tonight!

[786]

thanks so much

i better get to bed i've got a 60 mile bike ride in the morning!

[786]

I hope you win your bike ride..

haha thank you but it's just for exercise not a time trial or anything.

[786]

you are into F1? Schumacher?

yes sir, i started karting at age 4. most scandinavians are into F1 or WRC

schumacher is back this year with mercedes, not going as well as expected but for a 41 year old to be able to compete with these low 20-something guys is incredible. he is a true teuton.

How is life in Texas? A lot of Kandahary family moved there. about 80 familes move to texas.

I am from New York.

it's good, pretty quiet. living expenses are very low. lots of open spaces and the people are very friendly. perfect for a family. dallas is very metropolitan as well, very progressive. austin is very liberal, like a mini california. houston and san antonio suck. my life is really quite nice here but i need to get back to europe. hows new york? i've had some connections through there but never had time to go out of the airport, really want to see the city some day.

Glad you've decided to be a part of our community, 786! Thanks for joining. I'm sure you'll enjoy your time here at least as much as the rest of us!

Oh, and Pashto-learning -- yep, you're at a great environment for that! I wish you had some Pashto friends you could practice with on a regular basis, though. But no worries You can practice here with us as well!

New York City is what it is. Its the fashion capital,cultural,financial and entertainment capital of the globe. We even gave London a ran for its money.

Which part of Europe sir? Sir, I am born in New York by the way.

im fascinated by new york, i will definitely spend some time there in the future.

well, i can transfer to germany once my contract in afghanistan is over but i may just stay longer in afghanistan (the hazard pay really makes it worthwhile) and move to monaco and retire after that. im 27 and i would like to at least be semi-retired by 30. if my missions in afghanistan are too dangerous ill likely transfer to germany at the first opportunity.

thanks! you know i just met an afghani girl so that should help but if anybody on here is in the dallas area PM me

[786]

Come to New York City. I will take you to local mosques and community centers.

thank you brother, if i get a chance to get out there i will definitely be in touch.

Welcome to the forum You need to engage in conversation with some Pukhtuns/Pashtuns/Pathans, to learn the language because thats what where you have to be perfect i mean your accent should also be near to perfect if you are going to work in Afghanistan.


BTW not a good idea to disclose what you are going to do in a war zone that too when you are affiliated with some sensitive body, work etc .

haha @ Pathan

There is no such thing as a Pathan. Dont confuse the new comer with a Hindu/Punjabi word.

salaam alaikum,

i was PM'd to introduce myself so i suppose i better. my name is wali khan, i am originally from copenhagen, denmark but currently living in dallas, tx. i will be going to afghanistan soon for work and need to be fluent in pashto so i was looking for a board that would help and it seems as if i've found it.

tia for the help.

Allah hafiz

You are going to help the crusaders in Afghanistan by spying on your own people and helping them to suppress and kill people.

I hope you enjoy your fat salary in US dollars you earn for participating in spilling the blood of poor and suffering people of Afghanistan.
