Re: Traveling to pakistan in january
i am going back to my real place after just five months but it seems as if it has been a year, the reason being that the place i live now gives me no social atmosphere. i would rather say that the peolpe around seem to be like LIVING DEAD BODIES, hardly pass any smile or a positive gesture but i have to live here. i miss the people of pakistan as one hardly gets a chance to experience the hospitality of our people.
the pakistani weathers, the gool guppas, the useless hanging outs, the dinning outs, the usual phherri walas, one misses even the loadshedding out the country.
hehe =)
well, im pretty sure i wrote 75k
as in 75.000 rupees
on that note
can anyone give me some basic prices at the moment, as prices do go up and down
im thinking, sugar, milk,tea, average savari car fare,fruits and mangos
yeah, as one member wrote, bargaining in pakistan is an art, and they trace you're a foreigner before you even come to the stand :D
thats why i usually take a family member with me
im not much of a shopper, but i do enjoy some good sweets,tobacco,fruits(a'plenty) and i absolutely love desi raw milk, the carton milk we get here, doesnt even taste like it :D
hopefully im ordering my tickets tommorow
and hopefully ill be going the 3rd of january with my father and mother
i can see the weather down there is about 11 degrees and thats fine
since ive changed my plans to stay till june :D
that means ill be visting my lovely country and living there for atleast half a year :D:D
i hope my 75.000 will last me, my expesnes are, fruits,cigarettes,milk,tea,etc, but im gonna be getting about 20 or 30.000 in may if that doesnt last!!

Ps : Anyone from the islamabad area?
i myself am going to chakwal, which is about 2 or 3 hours from pindi!
I am from the Islamabad area, and can help you out! As for eating outside, the fancy places wont be that easy on your pocket if you go with just 75K, especially if you are planning on taking someone special out for dinner ;) The problem is, over the years, all the cheap places which were really really good are now super expensive too! Like for instance, there was an ancient shop in the Saddar area that sold unique samosas, and last time I remembered going there a samosa cost Rs. 5, and in just 2-3 years its upto Rs. 30 per plate! The inflation over the last few years is seriously mind boggling and it takes a while to get adjusted to it.

Saadia jee, savour started at Rs. 5 per plate! I still vaguely remember that! The owner used to have a thella, and look at him now! haha! I think its around Rs. 60 per plate now?
Savour is REALLY the best pallayo place ever! The in Islamabad tastes exactly the same as the original one in Pindi.

experience speaking!
has anyone had any rukawat in travelling in coming month cause our travel agent told us to hold on and postpone to wait and see casue army has been dispatched to karachi airport and hotel. so it will cause blackouts and probs for travellers.
anyone else is having this problem.

no i get my ticket without any problems
my gut says that nothing big is going to happen
people are too busy with things like weather disasters, and food shortages so hopefully the people dont want war
