I got to know an Afghani family many years ago whilst touring in India. Other members of their family lived in Hamburg, so consequently, I visited them and found them to be very hospitable. I have lost contact with the brothers in Hamburg, one of whom did impersonations of Michael Jackson and had won awards for doing so. Their father was a car salesman in Kabul, and the eldest son was in the car sale business in Hamburg. I'd love to get in touch with them somehow. They make lovely Tea.

Landlocked mountainous Afghanistan is called hear of Asia linking central Asian countries to south Asia countries, composite of several ethnic and groups, according to official statistics 35% Pushtons, 30% Tajiks, 15%Hazara, 9% Uzbek and Turkish and the rest is over 5 other ethnics, over 55% speaks Dari which the is language of Tajiks, similar to Iranian Persian, Hazara’s language is also Dari, very, very hospitable people, brave and warrior.

As this country has been invaded several times by several occupiers (Gengis, British Empire, Soviet Union and finally Pakistan trough extremist Taliban militias) Afghans are very sensitive against foreigners.

Any one goes to Afghanistan as tourist will have a lot of memory from the hospitality, generosity and friendship of Afghans, although they are very poor.

Very proud of their culture, traditions, religion, history and customs.

Well i have been in Afghanistan for a long time and i know the people quite well, they majority is Pashtoon about 70 % and the rest are tajik and other minorities.
the pashtoons are old warriors like sumarais in Japan. they are famous for thier bravery. but due to no education the country nieghboaring it named pakistan trained armed militia named taliban and sent them to Afghanistan and used the Powerful warrior pashtoons to destroy their own country and people.
After America came in they help alot of people come out of poverty but Pakistan has started training Sucide bombers telling them that America is an Invader. and Afghans really hate invaders they have destroyed the forces of Old Britain Empire and Russian Federation during thier past history.
