Entry

View from our hotel room in a small village at the Karakorum Highway, in Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan.
If I would look more to the left I could see the Nanga Parbat, one of the highest mountains on earth.

We are enjoying the march sun, in front of our room.

After some days rest here we continued our travel to Astore.
Pakistan 2009

First we came to Pakistan to travel overland from India to China, there is no other way. But then we spend three month in this country. It was an extraordinary time. We came with a difficult feeling, met outstanding, friendly, hospitable people and we were overhelmed from this awesome mountains in the north.
More from our travel in Pakistan in some previous posts.
