The infinite Beauty of Dust - Afghanistan

Riding around the world on motorcycles is always most fun by going completely off the beaten track.

On our trip through Afghanistan we found a shortcut on the map leading from Mazar-e-Sharif/Balkh straight south through the mountains towards Band-e Amir National Park.

The road started off promising: the asphalt was… let’s say “medium good” but it actually rode pretty smoothly.

We kept passing small villages made of mud-brick houses. Hardly anyone on the streets, just kids and men on donkeys, waving and smiling as we pass.

Afghanistan keeps surprising us – with its calm, its vastness, and its warmth.
