Yea, good episode today. Border crossings are sketchy for sure.

I wonder what would happen if she didn't have an escort.

Into Afghanistan...I hope she isn't going from 'bad' to 'worse'.

I get stressed just watching her cross these borders.

Another good one for sure. Some of the Taliban seemed to have no idea what or where Holland /Netherlands is. Must have been stopped 10 times.

Not sure if this is anything more than normal....but it can't be good news for her.

She really needs to get out of there. Has to be a better way to get to Japan.

It amazes me her knowledge of the area. I've forgot what she said 2 minutes later.
Why so many check points? It's like 1/2 the countries population are employed by the government. Just like here!

She is a courageous adventurer and has unlimited patience for all of the silly checkpoints and escorts but it only takes one bad dude and it is game over. I worry about her as if she was one of my own daughters.

I have extensive middle east experience (lived and worked there) and she has bigger balls than most folks. I have been to every country over there except for Yemen & Iran and it seems not to bother her. Really hope she does not have any issues over there.

Dang...she almost got wiped out in today's episode. They drive those trucks with no consideration to on-coming traffic.

Nice hotel room.
