Kalash is a small and one of the more visited valleys of Pakistan by foreigners so unlikely first time. Kids having a good time though.

You think that the foreigner would have explained to them how to turn the camera around 90 degrees so that people can/will actually watch the video …. duh!

I had a very similar experience in a very small rural village in Uganda in the early 1990s

This is how americans encounter us as europeans.

Before anyone brings this up, no they are not descendants of Alexander the Great’s army who settled there. It’s been disproven with the genetic data.
Ps: They have their own distinct religion about animism with just 3000 followers. Which is pretty cool
Edit:I thought they were kalash people. They aren’t. Sorry for misinformation 😭

For a minute at the end, I thought the cameraman was gonna teach those boys the circle game.

I was on dubai airport few days ago, and for the first time in my 22 year life I saw actual black people with their braid hairstyles.
Before that I had seen them only on Internet and YouTube

Pakistani north is probably one of the most underrated tourist destinations in the world. Amazing people and hospitality with stunning landscape.

My wife and I were in India some years back, and the folks in smaller villages were astonished to see a white westerner. The women wanted to take pictures with my wife to show their friends they met a westerner. It was cute but also strange.

They look like the afghan girl that was featured on the national geographic cover many years ago

My wife and I had this experience in a village in Zambia. There was a school we walked by with young kids playing outside, and when they saw us, they stopped and looked. Then, they started yelling “Booya!” to us, and assuming that meant hello, we said it back.
Immediately, a horde of these kids ran over to us and were all talking excitedly at once and rubbing our pale skin. Later, we were told by one of the teachers that booya actually means “come here” in their language and they thought we had something on our skin and were trying to rub it off to show the dark skin underneath.
It was very cute and honestly a pretty great welcome to the village after stepping off a 12 hour bus ride.

Never saw someone from Mongolia, should I touch their face and hair as if they look like aliens with eyes displaced and 5 limbs? Or is just another variation of human, and not that fucking surprising….
The kids have very similar complexion to the ‘turist’ I fail to see the amazement here

We had a similar few experiences in India last year. People wanted to take photos with my wife and I in them. We only realised when they asked for a photo and I thought they meant for me to take one of them, and that’s how we ended up in a selfie…
Much less than this extent of course, but still an odd feeling
