What it's like exploring HUNZA, PAKISTAN as a solo female traveler 🇵🇰
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 มิ.ย. 2024
- It’s finally time to head back to Northern Pakistan, and explore the stunning beauty of Hunza.
Although this journey was supposed to be different, life had other plans, and I’m trying to embrace being a solo female traveler again.
In this video I dive deep into the culture and warm hospitality of Hunza, discovering its magic from a whole new perspective.
A HUGE thank you to everyone who made this video possible:
*Sunny aka / : Thank you for your incredible kindness and for sharing the true essence of Hunza with me.
*Best motorbike teacher Syed aka / majestik.sb
*Leif Larsen Music Center (LLMC) in Hunza aka / llmchunza . Make sure to pay them a visit in Altit whenever you're around!
𝙄𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙫𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙤:
*Solo Travel Challenges: From doing laundry with a view to adjusting to solitude, see how I navigated the ups and downs of solo travel.
*Local Culture: Meet Sunny and his dog Hachi, and see our visit to a local school to promote animal awareness. Discover the inspiring stories of women at Ciqam, an initiative empowering local women.
*New Skills: Watch as I try something new and attempt to learn how to ride a motorbike.
*Solo Hiking: Join me on a solo hike (and see me fail), reigniting my love for travel and adventure amidst the most beautiful scenery.
*Music School: Experience the healing power of music as I visit a music school in Hunza, a perfect end to this transformative journey.
This trip has been about more than just travel; it’s been a journey of growth, self-discovery, and embracing new experiences. Whether you're a solo traveler or just love exploring new places, this video is for you.

People in Pakistan are mostly stuck in politics while sharing things but I'm proud of "SUNNY" that he is making awareness about sharing love with not just humans but also animals. He is such a well educated man and has great level of patriotism. So much respect towards him.💝
Same here, such a beautiful soul and I’m so grateful I got to meet him! 🙌
@@floragonningare you come again to Pakistan
Love from gujjers
Seeing the positive side of my country being told in such a way is so comforting to watch. Thank you for showing that Pakistan is not only what they try to portray it as.
۔Pakistan🇵🇰 is not just country. This is a world where you will find a new adventure at every turn. Every person has a different world, no matter how worried each face is,But the guest will always be greeted with a smile. We have only one love to give to others, so we will continue to give it to others.We are loving people and every guest will get love from us and that too pure love. So I request the media of the whole world to show our real face to people and not to spread hatred to increase their ratings.
We are not terrorists. We may be poor, but we are not terrorists at all.
Sister, every Pakistani who sees you will have the same wish that one day you will be our guest and stay in our house, even if it is just for a short break.We are people who love humanity. My request to the people to whom my words are reaching is that once you come to our country, let us give you such love that you will have happy moments in your life in Pakistan...Maulana Rumi says , (that Love is a bridge between you and everything of the world)So we all should plant the seeds of love today,our future generations will be able to flourish from them❤❤
Love from Northern Pakistan
We love very very much when someone come here ❤
Thousands of times welcome ❤
You are not alone in Pakistan ❤🥰🥰🥰
i m other side of kashmir and miss this beauty, but i can feel it ,smell it.❤ from kashmir. Peace b upon you ,may Allah guide you.
Kashmir kahan se ho. Main gilgit baltistan say hoon.

Flora in Hunza has been brilliant. I can't imagine what K2 will be like through her videos? Prepare well for K2 its a tough beast of a trek. Stay fit.
In tough times like these where our country is suffering from political and economic crisis, vlogs from people like you are only sign of hope and initiatives like ciqam are motivation for youth of Pakistan and force us not to leave Pakistan but to work hard and change it for good. Thank you for sharing this initiative.
Greetings from Pakistan. Well that was incredible. A real moment where life suddenly takes a new turn. Beautifully narrated in a highly absorbing vlog. Loved every minute of it. Wishing the best for you at all times. With warm regards
Thank you, appreciate it 💛✨
love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Lots of love back!💛
Even the start of the video has hit my heart. You make your videos with so much love and compassion. May you prosper and keep smiling all your life. Thank you for visiting our beautiful country. Respect
Beautiful Representation ❤ with beautiful voice 🤩 Love From Pakistan 🇵🇰
This girls vibe is just so refreshing , you're editing is magic, thanks
your, not you're. :)
With each video you post the editing, the storytelling, the cinematic shots, the voice over are getting better and better.
Thank you that means a lot! Always trying to grow✨
I was wondering why you haven't uploaded anything since you mentioned you just arrived in Pakistan again in your last video. I'm so glad you're feeling better and made this video, it really brightened my day.
You've inspired me to someday visit Pakistan with a freaking BIKE
Wow. Blown away by the quality and the contents of your production. You’re so watchable because you connect with people and nature and project positivity, love, compassion and kindness. Sunny is a philosopher and I’d love to meet him one day and learn from him. His perspective on life and world view is so broad. When he questioned ‘why Flora is so blessed and why that working lady was not’ is a question that every searching soul should be asking. It’s a kind of question where finding the answer may not be possible or important, but the quest for the answer takes you down the path of enlightenment and enrichment of your soul.
Syd the motorbiker also sounded a progressive person. It is so refreshing to see people like these who defy the growing pressures of the regressive and mind numbing interpretations of religious indoctrination. These people are the finest specimen of human race, and you’ve discovered these gems because you yourself are a gem of a human being. I hope I can get to meet you one day and learn from your experiences. Hopefully this won’t be very difficult because Holland is not far from the UK where I am :)
With lots of well wishes and waiting for your next masterpiece ! :)
Your one of the bravest woman I've ever seen in my life .💫
And your vedios are awe so inspiring.
Thank you so much 🙏
“Calmness overloaded” as an expatriate I wish to turn back one day and visit these beautiful places.
Have been missing your videos since you arrived Islamabad, now i knew why you took the break, don't be sad. Your life is in your hands, no body can affect it without your permission, so don't give such permission. I loved every minute of your amazing narration. Lots of love and prayers from Pakistan
Stay strong and keep going .. lots of love from Pakistan !
Flora you are doing a great job! I am a Pakistani but haven't been to these lovely places but now i am visiting all these places thanks to you through the eyes of your camera :) You make beautiful videos with crisp and professional editing. Great job! Keep it up!
p.s. very good message at the end! Hats off!! Cheers!
I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how much I admire the incredible work you do on your TH-cam channel. Your travel vlogs are not just videos they are immersive experiences. The way you capture the essence of each place, the meticulous editing, and the storytelling are truly remarkable. It's clear that you pour your heart and soul into every single video.
I deeply appreciate your courage, storytelling, and editing skills. Your honesty in portraying a positive image of Pakistan is truly heartwarming and inspiring. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful and authentic narrative.
I dont know what to say but the way you are spreading positive about Pakistan, even Pakistanis are unable to, Im so Thankful for your contribution, The thing Im trying to do you are doing it perfectly so Thank You!
Finally shared ..good vibes are timeless 🌈⌛
I was waiting for your vlog Flora. I like your name and smile. THANK YOU so much for coming here . I wish I could meet you💕
Nice Bike ride flora you got that x factor 😅💃👌♥️♥️♥️
I love seeing how open minded the people of Gilgit Baltistan are! Let’s hope the rest of our Pakistan can become like this one day 🇵🇰❤️🔥
you gotta be a goree for them to like you more, dark skinned people need not apply :)
Pakistan is a country with a diverse nature and respect full people, they consider hospitality a part of faith.
Here every one are respected not according to their religion and caste,❤❤
After waiting so many days,, we have a new video of Fiona.
Thanks.
Great video Flora. You’re stronger than you know and very inspiring and I think you’re living your best life in a way very few people do. You got this.
Always looking forward to your videos. Makes me calm and escape reality for a bit!
Such a courageous and positive thinking person.God bless you.
Creative and interesting.
Very nice vibes and good luck.
I don’t know why you feel so in despair here, and on the verge of like giving up, and that be in Pakistan. Cause i have seen so many people, especially the foreigners, who find the true motives and grounds to live by, of their lives here, most of ‘em, and when they cogitate over the lives of Pakistani people, and how they manage everything so well. That’s when they, the outsiders, start to be grateful for what they have. Do not give up. Just like you said, ‘it’s okay to give up for a while’, but not on life. One bad day/week/month/year doesn’t mean your whole life is going to be the same. Good luck. Chin-chin lady!
the last guitar wow, keep going and best of luck for more
The last part of this video is just incredible!
Yet another amazing video!
Pakistan so beautiful country.
I am Pakistani
Welcome back ❤. Can't wait to see more videos 🎉
Love the way you describe Pakistan😍
Mashallah so beautiful thanks for you coming Pakistan thanks for your Pakistan promote I like it
Pakistan is Love ... Media only presents DARK SIDE of my country which is hardly 0.1% of random people ... We welcome everyone visit our beautiful and peaceful Country.
healing a heart in hunza is the perfect one..
You are a quick learner of auto bike.
It's easy to drive your vehicle in neat and clean Hunza. Difficult to drive in Lahore or Karachi due to chaotic traffic in those cities.
You are a beautiful brave lady Flora.
Love watching your vlogs from Islamabad Pakistan.
OH YEYYY🎉 YOU'RE BAACCK
Hey Flora, you are never alone, you got the whole world!... Glad you are back to the shangri-la!. (Yes, I know, it's there for sure :)
