Thank you to Gilgit Serena Hotel for sponsoring our stay. Watch the entire Pakistani video series here: From Hunza Valley we drove on our way to Khunjerab Pass, a high elevation mountain pass along the Karakoram Highway at the border with China. At 16, 010 feet in elevation, its pretty high, and you start to feel a little dizzy. Before getting to Khunjerab Pass, we first stopped at Attabad Lake, a spectacular lake in the mountains, a result of an earthquake that changed the course of the mountains causing a dam along the Hunza River. Boat ride and tea was amazing. We continued driving and stopped in Sost, Pakistan, to eat a quick lunch, which happened to be my first vegetarian meal in Pakistan - including dal, beans, and mixed vegetables, all of which were delicious. Another couple of hours later, passing herds of yak and flocks of sheep and goats, we finally made it to Khunjerab Pass. It was cold, freezing cold, and the elevation was so high that if you just walk for a little while you start to lose your breath. But the views and location were otherworldly. From Khunjerab Pass we drove down to Gulmit Village, known for having a populations of Pamiri people, and therefore Pamiri food. Although similar to the food we had in Hunza Valley, it was also quite different, but again very unique, refreshing, healthy and wholesome, using lots of whole grains, nuts, and local produce. It was my first time to ever eat Pamiri food and to learn just a little about Pamiri culture and people. Another amazing day in Pakistan. The next day we traveled to Karachi Ali: Joel

Mark your videos are awesome everywhere you go. Did I miss a long-ago video on the provenance of Joel? I recall him joining you a couple years back. Vietnam? Thailand? as a friend you were meeting up with. But nothing beyond that. Then he started showing up in consecutive videos in 2018 and 2019. Anyway. I want to like him and understand his personality. He just is too close to mirroring your mannerisms, it just grinds on me like coarse sandpaper. If Joel is hanging around for the long-haul, can he please develop his food vocabulary and his own panache? It'd go a long way for you to have a complement, rather than a doppleganger.

I request all Indian friends to give a thumbs down to the Pakistani Series After the horrific attack on Indian Army by Pakistani Terrorist, I am stopping to follow you Mark. Been your ardent follower but hate to see you showing Pakistan as a peace loving country where it is just opposite. Sad to see you now going after sponsors and not caring for the truth.

We Indians and Pakistanis are soo close to each other but due to the worst diplomatic relation between India and Pakistan, Visa process is really very touch for the citizens of both the country. People of both india and pakistan are very good but due to media and politician nothing is happening good in the favour of citizen of both the country.
