Last summer I traveled into the mountains of Afghanistan for a two week backpacking adventure. Not your typical summer vacation destination. Here’s what I witnessed on my journey.
What comes to mind when you think about Afghanistan? War? Terrorism? Osama Bin Laden? The Mother Of All Bombs?

I was able to get a glimpse of Afghanistan when I was traveling along the Wakhan Valley in Tajikistan and boy was my mind blown by the amazing mountain range at the border. I was literally a stone throw away from Afghanistan! Needless to say, this post by Matthew takes it to another level and really show what a beautiful and misunderstood country Afghanistan is! Highly recommended to read and enjoy his trip!
