Pakistan (7 Dec 2009)
Apparently there wasn't many foreigners traveling in this country. I pretty much hadn't seen one single foreigner even I walked miles during the day and night. In the most popular city, Lahore, sometimes there were only 10 people staying in the backpacker beloved hostel in a good day. Sometimes I thought it probably the number of all foreigners in the city, except Clinton and her fellows if she was around.
Personally I felt safe travelling here except some sensitive areas. Basically people were friendly. They said hi to me not because they want to sell me things. They liked to ask you to take pictures of them. Yes there were bombs almost everyday but I'd never felt being threaten by the locals.
Other than chaotic and vibrant traditional local markets, they did have some neat modern shopping centers where probably were for middle class or above people. I am impressed by the organised and well done highway in some part of the country.
