🌈🧜🏼♀️Thanx beautiful , ive been binge watching you , since I found channel. It's been my dream to see India 🇮🇳 I appreciate the share. Much love to you and yours 🌻 ONELOVE xx ☯️🌸
@@KarlRock you actually understand a lot of hindi urdu, but you never went to China? Will they treat you in the same way as dissidents, take you hostage to replace Chinese spies. Like Russia or Iran does?
Thanks- it builds my confidence now that I am coming to Pakistan. Its much busier and friendly than a Melbourne street at night. Such a wonderful country Pakistan zindabad 😀😀
my brother works for a british american tobacco and for that reason he went in Pakistan several times. Everytime he has paid by the corporation 2-4 security guards with heavy weapons to protect him all the time. Pakistan is def not safe for any tourist. dont fool urself
I don't know why but it made me tear up a bit when you walked into that store where they were watching cricket and they offered you a seat and tea, such a lovely moment that captures the beauty of Pakistan
wait in pakistan for 1 month ,and you will see a live cricket of politicians fighting for seats ,and of course Imran khan would be leading one....and surely they will fail in it too.....😢😢😢😢😢😢😢A country is as good as its leaders and people.....They surely didn't get the leader part right...

I visited Pakistan 3 years ago and went to Lahore to see my friends for a day. I spent the whole night in Lahore and it never felt like it was ever quiet anywhere. At 4 in the morning, they got me Ras Malai which I hadn't had in 10 years. I think Lahore sleeps at 5am.
The hospitality of pakistani people's were awesome when I been to Pakistan. I been to India as well but Indian peoples scammed me many times. Love and respect from Nepal for Pakistan
Welcome brother any time and if you are coming to Pakistan I'll suggest you to directly land in Islamabad and then go to north because in south it's too hot around 45 50 celcius .

Pakistani people are awesome people. My favorite neighbour in my country was a Pakistani old lady and man. Their kids had moved out so they felt lonely. Lady would watch out her window when i was coming home from work and force me to join them for dinner, saying no was not allowed 😂
The fact that alcohol is basically non existent in public, makes these places much safer. May not look as nice as some places. But, I'd choose walking through random streets here, than random streets you don't know in LA, NY, Chicago.

I visited Pakistan a couple of years ago and I can say it is one of the places I loved the most on earth. People are probably the nicest I've ever met travelling and honestly at NO point did I feel in danger... I honestly feel more in danger in my own city!

Only big dangers of Pakistan are suicide attacks wich like to involve foregin country members or just terrorists kidnap for money. You must be very unlucky to get into one of these but its possible. For example in may young woman blow herself and killed some chinese students and teachers living in Karachi. There is no many real thieves and not as much scam as everyone think. Pakistan is as safe as other countries wich have their own problems. You not gonna feel more or less safe in Afghanistan Africa China or Uk. Everything everywhere can happen
I have been traveling a lot in Eastern Europe and after a nice evening with food and music in town I always walk home to the hotel or apartment and many friends ask me as well if I am not scared walking alone in the middle of the night in eastern europe. But I have never felt safer than in countries like Poland, Slovakia and the Czech Republic. People are generally friendlier and want to offer you help or food because they hear that you aren't speaking their language and they have been brought up to treat guests with love and kindness. I am from Sweden, where you basically can't go out at night alone in many cities anymore. I have not gone out after 21:00 in about 10 years now. Mafia, shootings, rape and lots of violence nowadays. :/ So traveling to countries where I feel safe is great for my mental health. It clears my mind from stress and negativity. I am glad you are showing the real Pakistan. This is NOT the picture they show us on the TV in Sweden. They just show us pain and misery. It's sad how western media uses fear and lies for their own profit. So what you are doing here is awesome. Have a great week Karl! Thanks for the videos :)
The countries you listed think of themselves as Central Europe, but you are right they are Eastern. Also, try doing the same in Russia, Ukraine, Serbia, Albania, and then tell me your thoughts. :) I think you will feel even safer.
@@surveyorsairinc2166 i agree. Most people think of serbia as unsafe, probably due to the war, but you could literally take a bike from Novi Sad to Nis and feel absolutely safe. Same thing can't be said about Northern Italy...
@@antalvic Yet, Italy has a homicide rate much, much lower than Serbia, and despite it's population much more important, there is more intentionnal murders in Serbia than in Italy. The same can't be said for Sweden, though, which has roughly the same homicide rate for 100 000 habitants than Serbia.
@3:10 you can tell the guy on the right was really curious as if he wanted to ask you where you’re from! Seems like genuine emotions as they don’t see that many tourists/foreigners and especially those who speak their language.
I can't thank you enough from the bottom of my heart Karl Rock. You are such an amazing person for not being biased against Pakistan and know that they are hospitable people and not at all a dangerous country. I looooove Pakistan and thank you so so so much for documenting your life there. It brings such a huge smile on my face because it is my dream to visit Pakistan and experience the richness of their culture which I somehow seem to see lacking in India. They seem to be such sweet and genuinely nice people. Absolutely am in love with the street culture. Keep the Pk vlogs on!!!
Bro, people on both sides are almost the same. Abundance of tourists in India have turned a few into vultures, unfortunately they represent your entire country which isn't fair. If the numbers of tourists raise here too, you might see same vultures here as well. It's natural. I guess.
Thanks Gaurika for your sweet comment. You are always welcome to Pakistan. I hope your dream come true soon. Being a Pakistani having spent 4 months in India for medical reason, I can honestly say it was the best time of my life coming across some of the most wonderful people in the world in new and old delhi. Because I was on a medical visa i could not go beyond the city.. Totally felt like home out there. India is as much amazing as my country if not more! Love and prayers 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
The western media vs reality. I expected scammers and hustlers and instead you got free milk , offer to have tea and watch cricket and all around friendly and welcoming people.
@@ArthurKingoftheBritons404 they don't want their women to turn into western women. Their culture punishes behavior that is not conducive to their way of life.
Notice all men litterly no women. If he was a women especially a non Muslim women he wouldn't have made it 20meters without being surrounded and Ra......
Nothing at all against india, id much prefer to visit there than most other countires, but I think Id visit Pakistan first. I feel this way because Pakistan comes accross more raw, traditional, pure, much less materialistic, and 'simple'. India , in my opinion, is more britishized, 'developed' , and synthetic. Just like my home country canada. An example for contrast.. Id much rather visit Iran than Dubai...
I really enjoy your videos. I’m from Las Vegas, Nevada USA and it’s so hot here. That cooler temperatures would feel great. I don’t drink alcohol or smoke tobacco, I to love milk and dairy products. I hope your wife is doing well. Take care.
@@KarlRock I’m glad you we’re able to visit. Karl please send me a message when you come back to Las Vegas sometime I’d love to meet you and maybe get a picture with you. Cheers, Robert
@@SpiderMan-hk1ee Not really. So many if not all Restaurants/eateries are smoke free establishments. Most casinos have smoke free areas to gamble as well. As far as alcohol is concerned I have no issue with someone drinking or for that matter smoking. I’m not telling nor suggesting anyone around me what do to or how to live their lives. Personal choice for me.
@@customdetailer0078 Lahore in summers is hot until the monsoons, I think karl rock went in winter, when it's really cold besides look at the latitude of both places, almost similar. If you want cooler weather then there are other places, Muree or Quetta.
Love this type of video Karl. I felt drawn into it, like I was there with you. Please yes, do more of these. I found myself a bit envious of the night scene. Here in my small US town there is nothing going on at night, on the streets, people are afraid to be out much past dark. I watch videos of many travelers and in so much of the world, cities and towns come alive after dark with street food, shops, markets, people strolling, talking, shopping, and yes having a hot tea, or milk, together on a chilly night...looks like such fun. How good it must feel to live that way. Thank you for posting, see you in the next one, all the best 🌸
There are not enough scammers here in Pakistan. You can only find a bunch of online scammers because people would literally beat the sh*t out of scammers if they find them. Note: Tourism is higher than Bangladesh SriLanka Nepal
@@saadahmed1153 because its mainly Muslims that buy the alcohol there. There is a big alcoholism issue in Pakistan behind closed doors and there are many alcoholics. It’s not a good thing
i loved those old buildings, they gave such magical vibes... so different from where i am from... my favorite part was when you entered the backstreets. Nice arquitecture and the narrow alleys filled with people demonstrate the communal life you speak of
Fascinating night walk! I loved seeing the raw, uncut visuals. So happy TH-cam suggested your video to us. Looking forward to checking out more of your videos. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦 ✨ 🥛
This world looks so much better than here in the UK. I know...maybe we have more material objects....but this is an actual community...the people interact with eachother and speak to eachother. Here in London...it's busy ..every moment is controlled by your bosses and laws. You can only drive this here if you pay this money etc.. ..and if you said hi to someone passing by it would upset them. It's like the polar opposite of London and looks so much nicer and safer.
Completely agree. Same here in the US. People keep their faces in their phones constantly and don’t give anyone else the time of day. Seems much better community here.
Really, I think you better do your research, here in the UK if your neighbour does not like you are still civil with each other. In Pakistan and India they will group up (mob culture) and make your life hell and kick you out, Just look how many non Muslims are left. Karl Rock is up to no good, he is making money from YT hence he is showing a one sided picture. Other side is very dangerous for him.
Hey Karl , hope you are well.. i have some news that i think might make you happy . Do you remember your favourite little breakfast place in Katmandu?.. of course you do .. well i have seen other vloggers ,one of whom watches your channel recently go there . One guy Craig asked the woman about business and she told him that she gets more business since you made a video and with other vloggers now visiting i believe even more people will go there too. Wonderful news dont you think . 😀😀😀
Hey Stefen! That's fabulous news. I'm glad. It feels good! It's hard to find that balance of fantastic food and wonderful owners, and then be able to make a video about them.
Thanks to all the people for showing our hospitality to the visitors. Specially that milk shop man who is already not having a good day in terms of sale but still didn't ask for any money Big Heart ♥. Not like any other country where people scam and trick with foreigners to charge super extra money for small service.
@@punjabiuniversitygeteducat71 that is possible, I didn't mean you will never be cheated in Pakistan. Its everywhere in the world. I hope you have learnt some lesson from it and it would have helped you in your life. Generally more good people then bad people.
@@punjabiuniversitygeteducat71 You can get scammed anywhere around the world. The point of the video was not claiming that it is impossible to be scammed in Pakistan, it 's just a demonstration that it 's relatively safe to walk around the streets at night.
Beautiful culture and beautiful people all serving God and acting the way God intended us to be. Streets not littered with drunkenness and rowdy behaviour, the women also modestly dressed a as well. This video makes me want to pray and thank God for all the blessings and this beautiful country. From Scotland 🏴 with love to Pakistan 🇵🇰
Fascinating night time exploration Karl. You do have the upper edge however since you can speak the language. For me to do it, sure I can walk around & let curiosity take over with my eyes but would not be able to chat it up with the locals like you do. Cheers mate
I've only come across your channel a few hours and already watched a few videos (mainly about Pakistan since my elders are from there). Can't wait to watch more videos 👍🏽
great karl rock, just a little thing. Hospitality being a noun ends with i sound so it is " mehmaan nawazi", a hospitable person will be called as "mehmaan nawaaz". Keep it up bro. super like ur vids.
Allahu Akbar I love too much Pakistan I'm in middle East county with many Pakistani my neighbor . Pakistani peoples friendly people religious people . I'm from Bangladesh , by the time we were a same country East Pakistan
thank you Karl for another great video always enjoy them as i will never get to see such nice places and people every one seems so kind peace fella much love from the UK
I love the hospitality & the kindness that you've been shown. Especially from the milk man...id love to be able to do what you do. I appreciate your work & how you show that normal people aren't the sterotypes people seem to believe. Keep showing the good in all the world. NAMASTE🙏
Lol, BC, They are Seeing any Foreign tourist after 40 years.. And Indians Seeing Spike in foreign Tourist Visit since 2000s after India launch of Tourism of Incredible India and Individual State Tourism Promotion.. We Indians makes 70% Local Tourist made our Country Tourism Worthy so now, Foreign Visit are More.. . Don't be Fooled by this Pakistan State Tourism where Government provides them Guided tour, tour guide, Good Hotel stay, Transport to Place to visit... KARL would have taken Special Permission to GO SOLO. . OTHERWISE, In Pakistan other than Punjab Province and Karachi city, Visiting any Place is given permission from "ESTABLISHMENT 🤣" to go visit Kashmir Pakistan, Kalash valley and BIG NO to BALUCHISTAAN, KPK.
Outstanding as always Karl. It's great to hear your beautiful wife doing the commentary as well. Best wish to you and your family from the UK 🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴
What have you done mate! I randomly saw one of your video about 6 hours ago. I don't know how but these videos are so engaging that I m still glued to the TV. It feels we all in cities miss that life. A BIG thank you! Keep em coming
Pakistan is a very sweet country. I never thought pakistan would be like this. I don't know why the media don't show this other side of pakistan. They just need TRP for their shows by spreading hate. I would love to visit there. I am crying now that we are not together. Why did the partition happened? We must have been very happy together but because of some political greed some people made us apart and made us enemy countries. The people are very sweet. Everything is similar to our country India. I wish we will be one again. ❤❤❤❤❤ Love you all (India+Pakistan ) 🤞🤞🤞🤞 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What???!!! We are brown people and 70% of northern Pakistanis in northern Punjab are medium brown only kpk and some parts of northern hilly areas like Gilgit, chitral, baltistan, hazara you will find light skinned people there in Punjab mostly you will find dark medium brown and pure darkest brown and in sindh mostly are darkest brown with few exceptions... etc we don't look a bit like Europeans thought we are wannabe Europeans I mean you know what I meant by that...
hello brother i am a chinese working in pakistan my friend i hope you have a smooth trip in pakistan but i want to remind you that some places in pakistan are very dangerous so you need to be careful
Sending good vibes your way bro, can't wait to watch this. I'll come to Pakistan one day, it'll confuse the locals when a brown dude speaks zero urdu/hindi hahaha
The best part was stopping for food or warm milk in this case. I enjoy when you engage with the locals! And it looks safer then most of the larger U.S. cities.
Love your videos karl , you really do show some interesting places and really enjoy seeing you just walk around meeting local people . Great work and please keep the videos coming .👍
drinkin milk with the boyz honestly so wholesome. I wish there were more places where people just hung out with strangers in the evenings without the presence of alcohol.
Karl, it's something new for me too!! We haven't seen the time VLogs of Pakistan in any traveller's Videos. It's good to see this. I hope you have more videos of Night time. 😃
Great vid from Lahore Karl, I love 🇵🇰, many at my school here in England when I was a kid, lovely people. When was this filmed Karl as it looked chilli?
Pakistanis are beautiful people, I had some Pashtun friends in China, they would give me the shirt off their back if I asked for it, i miss them dearly, Pakistan Zindabad!!!
Those streets reminded me of the street scenes in the movie Blade Runner. But instead of rain, you have smog. I am glad you showed how beautiful the people are and the friendliness of the locals. Excellent street level video, Karl !
when the sun comes up and glows through the smog...it's kinda beautiful over the Badshahi mosque but it's also depressing. I hope something can be done about the pollution
Where you had the milk, they have a Soda milk drink there which is pink. I saw it on Chris Lewis Chanel. But it's a cold drink. So you might not habe enjoyed ot as the war milk. Also you should have the tandoori Chai. It looks so cool. Thx for sharing your walk. And I'm also so happy for you, that you could return home ro your family.
Hey Karl Hope you're fine man 😄 Anyways I have one request 'Can you please explore other places like Japan, Baghdad or middle East countries I want to see the life out there through your videos ' Hope I get to watch those videos in future 🤞

For example in may young woman blow herself and killed some chinese students and teachers living in Karachi. There is no many real thieves and not as much scam as everyone think. Pakistan is as safe as other countries wich have their own problems. You not gonna feel more or less safe in Afghanistan Africa China or Uk. Everything everywhere can happen
Very similar to old delhi in 2000's. I can't even imaging how normal and beautiful is pakistani streets. This vedio gave me nostalgia. ❤🇵🇰
i hope i can send u my purring vedios too

I have been traveling a lot in Eastern Europe and after a nice evening with food and music in town I always walk home to the hotel or apartment
and many friends ask me as well if I am not scared walking alone in the middle of the night in eastern europe.
But I have never felt safer than in countries like Poland, Slovakia and the Czech Republic.
People are generally friendlier and want to offer you help or food because they hear that you aren't speaking their language and they have been brought up to treat guests with love and kindness.
I am from Sweden, where you basically can't go out at night alone in many cities anymore.
I have not gone out after 21:00 in about 10 years now.
Mafia, shootings, rape and lots of violence nowadays. :/
So traveling to countries where I feel safe is great for my mental health.
It clears my mind from stress and negativity.
I am glad you are showing the real Pakistan. This is NOT the picture they show us on the TV in Sweden.
They just show us pain and misery. It's sad how western media uses fear and lies for their own profit.
So what you are doing here is awesome.
Have a great week Karl! Thanks for the videos :)
The countries you listed think of themselves as Central Europe, but you are right they are Eastern. Also, try doing the same in Russia, Ukraine, Serbia, Albania, and then tell me your thoughts. :) I think you will feel even safer.
@@surveyorsairinc2166 i agree. Most people think of serbia as unsafe, probably due to the war, but you could literally take a bike from Novi Sad to Nis and feel absolutely safe. Same thing can't be said about Northern Italy...
@@antalvic or Sweden or definitely the UK!
@@antalvic Yet, Italy has a homicide rate much, much lower than Serbia, and despite it's population much more important, there is more intentionnal murders in Serbia than in Italy.
The same can't be said for Sweden, though, which has roughly the same homicide rate for 100 000 habitants than Serbia.
Czech people are nice
@3:10 you can tell the guy on the right was really curious as if he wanted to ask you where you’re from! Seems like genuine emotions as they don’t see that many tourists/foreigners and especially those who speak their language.
Thank you Karl. I am almost 50 years old and have never left Australia. I really enjoy your walks through these places. All the best mate.👍🇭🇲
I can't thank you enough from the bottom of my heart Karl Rock. You are such an amazing person for not being biased against Pakistan and know that they are hospitable people and not at all a dangerous country. I looooove Pakistan and thank you so so so much for documenting your life there. It brings such a huge smile on my face because it is my dream to visit Pakistan and experience the richness of their culture which I somehow seem to see lacking in India. They seem to be such sweet and genuinely nice people. Absolutely am in love with the street culture. Keep the Pk vlogs on!!!
Bro, people on both sides are almost the same. Abundance of tourists in India have turned a few into vultures, unfortunately they represent your entire country which isn't fair. If the numbers of tourists raise here too, you might see same vultures here as well. It's natural. I guess.
You’re welcome Dear😊
Jake Pakistan me hi shift ho jaa, nikal koi jarurat nhi teri yaha.
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thanks Gaurika for your sweet comment. You are always welcome to Pakistan. I hope your dream come true soon. Being a Pakistani having spent 4 months in India for medical reason, I can honestly say it was the best time of my life coming across some of the most wonderful people in the world in new and old delhi. Because I was on a medical visa i could not go beyond the city.. Totally felt like home out there. India is as much amazing as my country if not more! Love and prayers 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
So interesting! Thanks for taking us on the walk with you Karl!
This was such a cool video. Really makes it feel like you're there walking through those streets yourself. Thanks Karl!
The western media vs reality. I expected scammers and hustlers and instead you got free milk , offer to have tea and watch cricket and all around friendly and welcoming people.
If he swapped genders it would be a very different story.
@@ArthurKingoftheBritons404 they don't want their women to turn into western women. Their culture punishes behavior that is not conducive to their way of life.
Notice all men litterly no women. If he was a women especially a non Muslim women he wouldn't have made it 20meters without being surrounded and Ra......
Try that as a women at night. Notice not a single women out there.
@@ArthurKingoftheBritons404 thats probably advice you should you give to single women in London
Nothing at all against india, id much prefer to visit there than most other countires, but I think Id visit Pakistan first. I feel this way because Pakistan comes accross more raw, traditional, pure, much less materialistic, and 'simple'. India , in my opinion, is more britishized, 'developed' , and synthetic. Just like my home country canada. An example for contrast.. Id much rather visit Iran than Dubai...
Well its the less developed part of the city you will find that all over south asia we Pakistanis are little hospitable 😂 we will welcome you

Hey Mate. I've been to Vegas once. Arizona was so hot. But a cool place nonetheless. Hoping to get back to the US next year. Thanks
@@KarlRock I’m glad you we’re able to visit. Karl please send me a message when you come back to Las Vegas sometime I’d love to meet you and maybe get a picture with you.
Cheers, Robert
Isn't it hard living in Las Vegas without alcohol or tobacco?
@@SpiderMan-hk1ee Not really. So many if not all Restaurants/eateries are smoke free establishments. Most casinos have smoke free areas to gamble as well. As far as alcohol is concerned I have no issue with someone drinking or for that matter smoking.
I’m not telling nor suggesting anyone around me what do to or how to live their lives. Personal choice for me.
@@customdetailer0078 Lahore in summers is hot until the monsoons, I think karl rock went in winter, when it's really cold besides look at the latitude of both places, almost similar. If you want cooler weather then there are other places, Muree or Quetta.
A really nice video. You come across as very genuine, curious and authentic. Glad I found your channel.
Thanks so much. Welcome.
Love this type of video Karl. I felt drawn into it, like I was there with you. Please yes, do more of these. I found myself a bit envious of the night scene. Here in my small US town there is nothing going on at night, on the streets, people are afraid to be out much past dark. I watch videos of many travelers and in so much of the world, cities and towns come alive after dark with street food, shops, markets, people strolling, talking, shopping, and yes having a hot tea, or milk, together on a chilly night...looks like such fun. How good it must feel to live that way. Thank you for posting, see you in the next one, all the best 🌸
There are not enough scammers here in Pakistan. You can only find a bunch of online scammers because people would literally beat the sh*t out of scammers if they find them.
Note: Tourism is higher than Bangladesh SriLanka Nepal
Also unfortunately there are stores that sell alcohol and it’s available in many hotels for non Muslims only
@@TheR3negadeMaster how is it unfortunate?
@@saadahmed1153 because its mainly Muslims that buy the alcohol there. There is a big alcoholism issue in Pakistan behind closed doors and there are many alcoholics. It’s not a good thing

Because there are less tourists
i loved those old buildings, they gave such magical vibes... so different from where i am from... my favorite part was when you entered the backstreets. Nice arquitecture and the narrow alleys filled with people demonstrate the communal life you speak of
Greetings from Germany. This is one of your most interesting videos. Hope to see more like this walk.
Hi Karl, Lovely to see you just walking around and giving us an unedited version of Lahore. Im so happy your back where you belong.
Thanks for showing my beautiful country to the world
"I had seen many of his movies"
"Yes, Pewdiepie."
It was killing me from laugh... 🤣
I got a like from Karl himself. What a surprise. Hope everything is well with you and some day I can go visit and meet you at Pakistan or Delhi.
I'd be more afraid walking around American cities at night
No doubt about it!
Or british cities
Especially Detroit or St Louis
@@kaydenchan7093 damn is it actually that bad
I'm Pakistani american, can confirm
Fascinating night walk! I loved seeing the raw, uncut visuals. So happy TH-cam suggested your video to us. Looking forward to checking out more of your videos. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦 ✨ 🥛
Hey. Thanks for dropping by. Cheers 🥛
Agree thats just what I was thinking
This world looks so much better than here in the UK. I know...maybe we have more material objects....but this is an actual community...the people interact with eachother and speak to eachother. Here in London...it's busy ..every moment is controlled by your bosses and laws. You can only drive this here if you pay this money etc..
..and if you said hi to someone passing by it would upset them.
It's like the polar opposite of London and looks so much nicer and safer.
Grass looks always greener on the other side. Every place has it's good and bad.
Yes, I lived both in London and Asia (mainly India), and I feel much safer in India and love the community atmosphere.
Completely agree. Same here in the US. People keep their faces in their phones constantly and don’t give anyone else the time of day. Seems much better community here.
Really, I think you better do your research, here in the UK if your neighbour does not like you are still civil with each other. In Pakistan and India they will group up (mob culture) and make your life hell and kick you out, Just look how many non Muslims are left. Karl Rock is up to no good, he is making money from YT hence he is showing a one sided picture. Other side is very dangerous for him.
Same with the most places here in the states. I'm looking at this thinking it looks wonderful.
Love your vids, wish I could travel to some of these places, but glad I at least get to see them here!
Maybe one day mate :)
Hey Karl , hope you are
well.. i have some news that i think might make you happy .
Do you remember your favourite little breakfast place in Katmandu?.. of course you do .. well i have seen other vloggers ,one of whom watches your channel recently go there . One guy Craig asked the woman about business and she told him that she gets more business since you made a video and with other vloggers now visiting i believe even more people will go there too. Wonderful news dont you think . 😀😀😀
Hey Stefen! That's fabulous news. I'm glad. It feels good! It's hard to find that balance of fantastic food and wonderful owners, and then be able to make a video about them.
@@KarlRock sure is fantastic news . . You definitely found the right balance there 😀👍
Thanks to all the people for showing our hospitality to the visitors. Specially that milk shop man who is already not having a good day in terms of sale but still didn't ask for any money Big Heart ♥. Not like any other country where people scam and trick with foreigners to charge super extra money for small service.
i was scammed in pakistan thou
@@punjabiuniversitygeteducat71 that is possible, I didn't mean you will never be cheated in Pakistan. Its everywhere in the world. I hope you have learnt some lesson from it and it would have helped you in your life. Generally more good people then bad people.
@@punjabiuniversitygeteducat71 You can get scammed anywhere around the world. The point of the video was not claiming that it is impossible to be scammed in Pakistan, it 's just a demonstration that it 's relatively safe to walk around the streets at night.
I am from Pakistan....and I know my country is is good people help each other....thank you to visit my country...
Beautiful culture and beautiful people all serving God and acting the way God intended us to be. Streets not littered with drunkenness and rowdy behaviour, the women also modestly dressed a as well. This video makes me want to pray and thank God for all the blessings and this beautiful country. From Scotland 🏴 with love to Pakistan 🇵🇰
Fascinating night time exploration Karl. You do have the upper edge however since you can speak the language. For me to do it, sure I can walk around & let curiosity take over with my eyes but would not be able to chat it up with the locals like you do. Cheers mate
Actually, I should do it in English-only one time. Thanks!
There are more ways to communicate than just verbally
I've only come across your channel a few hours and already watched a few videos (mainly about Pakistan since my elders are from there). Can't wait to watch more videos 👍🏽

Truly admire their hospitality , we Indians could merely have done this.
What do you mean?
Kuchh bhi
Lol, BC, They are Seeing any Foreign tourist after 40 years.. And Indians Seeing Spike in foreign Tourist Visit since 2000s after India launch of Tourism of Incredible India and Individual State Tourism Promotion.. We Indians makes 70% Local Tourist made our Country Tourism Worthy so now, Foreign Visit are More..
.
Don't be Fooled by this Pakistan State Tourism where Government provides them Guided tour, tour guide, Good Hotel stay, Transport to Place to visit... KARL would have taken Special Permission to GO SOLO.
.
OTHERWISE, In Pakistan other than Punjab Province and Karachi city, Visiting any Place is given permission from "ESTABLISHMENT 🤣" to go visit Kashmir Pakistan, Kalash valley and BIG NO to BALUCHISTAAN, KPK.

Hi! Love the video and thanks for visiting my country and learning our National language. I hope you visit Karachi too.
The best part was stopping for food or warm milk in this case. I enjoy when you engage with the locals! And it looks safer then most of the larger U.S. cities.
WAY safer than U.S.
That milk tastes very different from the regular milk its delicious
Man, I absolutely love your videos! Thank you for sharing.
Love your videos karl , you really do show some interesting places and really enjoy seeing you just walk around meeting local people . Great work and please keep the videos coming .👍

drinkin milk with the boyz
honestly so wholesome. I wish there were more places where people just hung out with strangers in the evenings without the presence of alcohol.

You are wrong.
See many ladies visiting Pakistan.
They are loving the culture of Pakistan.
They got huge respect
loved the unedited footage!
They stay up all night and drink milk? That sounds awesome.
But you can't have a beer
Those streets reminded me of the street scenes in the movie Blade Runner. But instead of rain, you have smog. I am glad you showed how beautiful the people are and the friendliness of the locals. Excellent street level video, Karl !
when the sun comes up and glows through the smog...it's kinda beautiful over the Badshahi mosque but it's also depressing. I hope something can be done about the pollution
Where you had the milk, they have a Soda milk drink there which is pink. I saw it on Chris Lewis Chanel. But it's a cold drink. So you might not habe enjoyed ot as the war milk.
Also you should have the tandoori Chai. It looks so cool. Thx for sharing your walk. And I'm also so happy for you, that you could return home ro your family.
That was awesome! Thanks for the video guys!
