00:00 Back to our stories.

00:02 Today's story is like a chicken lentil soup.

00:06 We underestimate everything.

00:09 Our country is extremely beautiful.

00:11 We realize this when foreigners, tourists come to Pakistan and tell us how beautiful Pakistan is.

00:20 How delicious the food is and how good the people are.

00:26 They express their happiness when you praise their country.

00:29 People from all over the world come to Pakistan to see these views.

00:34 Whether it is the beautiful fields or the beautiful mountains.

00:38 Pakistan has beautiful weather and everything.

00:42 And what about the food?

00:44 What about the food and hospitality?

00:46 I have heard that Faisal has a vlogger who is from Poland.

00:50 And she wants to go back to Pakistan. Is that true?

00:54 Yes, it is true. When you come to Pakistan and drink tea in the mountains,

01:02 people say that they don't want money.

01:09 She is a travel blogger from Poland.

01:19 You can watch her videos. She is enjoying her time in Pakistan.

01:24 She is recreating how safe Pakistan is for female and solo travelers.

01:31 Gautam Giridh is with us now.

01:36 We welcome her because she is from Poland.

01:41 Welcome to the show.

01:50 Welcome Gautam. Welcome to Pakistan and to our show.

01:54 Thank you. Thank you for welcoming me.

01:58 I want to say it in my language. Welcome.

02:01 Thank you.

02:04 Gautam, how are you finding Pakistan? How are the people?

02:11 How long have you been traveling? How many days have you been here?

02:15 I have lived in Pakistan. I moved here last year.

02:19 I am doing my business here. I live in Islamabad now.

02:24 I found Pakistan as a very beautiful country.

02:27 Rich culture, beautiful people, which are very nice to us, especially to tourists.

02:34 So far, my experiences are very good.

02:37 How long have you been in Pakistan? I heard that you know some Urdu words as well.

02:43 Can you speak in Urdu?

02:45 I can also say like "cholo", "jaldi cholo", "mujhe kofik", "pinahe".

03:01 So there are some words. I am learning Urdu now.

03:06 That is so brilliant. Very impressive.

03:10 So, Gautam, which cities have you visited till now?

03:15 So far, I have visited Islamabad, Karachi, Lahore, Sialkot, Bahawalpur, Multan, Gilgit, Faisalabad, Karimabad, Muzaffarabad, Peshawar.

03:33 Can you tell me, I heard that you want to stay here.

03:39 So what did happen and when did you decide that you are not going back? Is it so?

03:46 Yes, that's true. I moved to Pakistan last year.

03:50 I am the owner of a travel agency and I am bringing nowadays European tourists to Pakistan,

03:55 which I am finding as a very, very good opportunity to soften the image of Pakistan,

04:00 to change the view of Pakistan on European market for European people, which is very important.

04:07 Now I feel it's like my mission. And it's a growing business. It's going very good.

04:12 So here, my stay in Pakistan is also very important, not only for my personal development,

04:18 because I found Pakistan as a country with many great opportunities.

04:23 I also would like to start other business here, because I am also a PhD in pharmaceutical science.

04:29 Maybe one day I will open a chain of pharmacies here in Pakistan, because it's related to my main profession.

04:38 So I have many ideas what to do in Pakistan, what to bring to Pakistan, like from Europe.

04:45 And that's my new way of life.

04:48 So, Gosia, that means you feel absolutely safe being a female traveler in Pakistan.

04:54 What message would you like to give to the world?

04:56 I want to add one thing more. What were your impressions about Pakistan earlier,

05:00 when you didn't visit here, when you didn't come over here?

05:05 And now what has changed over the course of one year?

05:09 Yes, my first impression, of course, what is shown in Western media, that it's not a safe country.

05:15 Of course, it's not good to travel, for example, alone.

05:18 But my impression here, of course, changed when I came here first time.

05:23 It was 2022, and that was the moment when I got a very good impression of the country.

05:28 And I realized that the people are very nice, especially to me.

05:33 And, for example, when I travel alone, they are always ready to help me.

05:37 I was traveling between many cities here in Pakistan by plane, by bus, by cars.

05:44 And everywhere when I was alone, people were eager to help me if I needed any help.

05:51 So that was a very great experience, which sometimes you don't even experience in Europe.

05:56 In Europe, you are more like alone with everything.

05:59 And here, people were really very nice to me.

06:02 And what do you like the most? What about the food?

06:05 Do you like our food? And which food do you think must be your favorite?

06:11 My favorite so far is biryani. I like so much the flavor of biryani and paratha.

06:18 And also golgappa. I love golgappa and biryani too.

06:22 And since you have mentioned that you have visited both Karachi and Lahore,

06:26 please tell us, Karachi's biryani is the best. Please go on. Please say it.

06:30 I was living in Karachi for a few months, so yeah, I can say that.

06:35 Because there's always been a huge debate between Lahoris and Karachiites,

06:39 whose biryani is the best. So you have decided that Karachi's biryani is the best. Right?

06:45 Yes. Authenticated.

06:48 So again, you visited from south of Pakistan to the north of Pakistan.

06:54 You visited the coastal beach. You visited the northern mountains.

06:59 Pakistan has got loads of potential.

07:02 What still Pakistan as a tourism industry, in your view, has to do to engage more and more tourists?

07:11 Especially I think it can be some improvement by the government.

07:16 When it's going about the infrastructure, about the hotels,

07:20 that there can be more and more hotels with better equipment and hot water, electricity,

07:29 infrastructure of the road.

07:31 So there are some of these things too which can make it easier to travel and even stay for European tourists.

07:36 Because in Europe, you know, the people have very high demands.

07:41 So when they came here, sometimes they are asking me many questions.

07:45 What about this? What about the hot water?

07:47 So I think this could be easier for travelers in the future,

07:51 and especially also safety in the country, like stabilization.

07:55 So it's also very important for politicians to give a good message, like to not have any problems.

08:02 The image of the country should be, of course, like a stable country, a safe country.

08:08 So this is the most important for tourism.

08:11 A very, very positive message.

08:13 Gershia, you want to give some message to the people who still haven't visited Pakistan.

08:20 Do you have anything in mind to tell them?

08:23 They should come to Pakistan.

08:26 And it's very important to change our point of view, to have a broadened mind.

08:32 And Pakistan gives the best memories.

08:36 It's my best trip when I came here in 2022.

08:39 Like mountains were calling me, and I still remember this.

08:43 And this is something that stays in your mind forever.

08:46 So Pakistan gives you an impression like no other country in the world.

08:51 So, so sweet of you.

08:53 Thank you so much for coming on our show and lovely chatting with you and meeting with you.

08:58 Thank you.

08:59 Thank you.

09:00 Thank you so much.

09:01 Thank you again.

09:02 I liked it.

09:03 It's been a year.

09:06 It's been a year since she learned.

09:08 It's so great that people are coming from abroad and improving the image of Pakistan.

09:15 Now it's up to us to keep our country clean and good.

09:21 So that our beauty can be enhanced.

09:27 We have good people, good natural scenery, everything is good.

09:31 If we work on our infrastructure, on our roads, on facilities, then a lot can be improved.
