My Trip in Covid-19 from South to North of Pakistan

I was blessed with my first son in the peak time of Covid, in the month of April 2020 where I was unable to share the happiness with others due to restrictions of Covid. However, just after couple of months, I decided to share the happiness with my most loved person, the head of our community who was residing in Mingora, Swat. It is the northern most part of Pakistan and I live in South most part of Pakistan i.e. Karachi.

I would love to share this story of mine travelling in the peak time of Covid just to share the happiness. It wasn’t easy though but I was very much positive about my trip. I took a bus from Karachi to Peshawar. It usually takes 22-24 hours but this time it took 36 hours because the bus A/C was not working properly and it took too many stops. I was too much tired because of this journey and finally after reaching Peshawar, took some rest at our community place and then very next day got ready for a fun ride with Mr. Shakeel to Mingora Swat.

This is not the first time travelling with him but yes, it was for the first time he was driving his own car, usually we hire a car from Peshawar to Mingora but due to Covid, there was not much movement and no entry in Swat. Mr. Shakeel got some useful links and contacts which helped us to pass the barriers.

I am sharing here some videos I made on my way to Mingora from Peshawar. This was a memorable ride, we had a lot of fun. Mr. Shakeel is a jolly person who non-stop made me laugh through his jokes. It is 4 hours of drive but time passed by very quickly. The path from mountains, ups and downs, curves, it is not easy to drive on these roads. A professional drive like Mr. Shakeel is needed to have a good journey. There were tunnels in the mountains, newly built and were still having construction work which helped us to reach our destination quickly. I really enjoyed this trip, full of mountain sceneries and adventurous road trip.

I was happy to reach Mingora safe and sound and then shared the sweets of happiness with my community. Spent couple of days there and then returned back to Karachi the same way. I hope you like the beauty of Pakistan which I shared through my video clips.
