I Shouldn't Have Come to Afghanistan

I've said on the show before multiple times that I think China is probably one of the most adventurous countries you can go to.

I actually recommend most people who have...

A decently high level of tolerance for bullshit to go to China.

And not to throw shade on the Jungoran by any means.

It's just the country is difficult to navigate if you're not in Beijing or Shanghai.

A lot of the signage is not in English.

And there's just not any English support on the apps.

And you have to have an app to do everything to buy fucking KFC and McDonald's.

But that's not why you're here.

I'm talking about Afghanistan.

um so i've said this before china is like to me like the perfect if you talk about like x versus like y-axis i don't know if i did that with my hands right x y-axis of like fun versus risk it's very low risk and it's very fun and it's extremely uh vibrant culturally and um There's just a lot to offer in China, and the risk is almost zero.

I mean, unless you're going to the North Korean border and filming the North Korean border.

And by the way, you can do that in Danang.

I've done that twice.

You can do that.

But me and Tommy went to Tumen.

It's so far up into the North Korean border.

It's almost to Russia.

So China, Russia, North Korea.

But unless you're intentionally seeking out those things, you will not experience troubles in China.

Whereas I feel like my first impression of Afghanistan before I came here, which I still can't believe I'm saying, every time the words come out of my mouth, I feel scared.

that I'm breaking some kind of rule.

But to me, the adventure is even higher and the risk is probably 100 times what is possible in China.

Now, I'm not saying it's likely to happen, the worst case scenario.

And I know exactly what you're thinking.
