10 recently published experiences http://www.hereorthere.com/countries/pakistan en-us Peshawar, the city in Pakistan notorious for harboring Taliban terrorists, smells surprisingly, absolutely lovely. Once you leave the polluted streets, the lush gardens of jasmine overtake the senses. I was in Peshawar to conduct interviews for a work project, and beyond the delicious scent of the streets, i was also surprised at how friendly the Pakistani's were. I was constantly invited for tea, meals, chats. The curiosity of who I was and what I was doing there was more than they could bare. There were many stories that could be told about my trip but I would prefer to spin a yarn about vignettes of my memories. Peshawar is a complex place politically, and my experience doesn't necessarily reflect the tone of the city, but I feel it encapsulates the generosity and kindness of those Pakistani's who did cross my path.
