Her motorcycle diaries: A Pakistani girl's boundary-breaking bike journey

Some really shitty people live in Chilas

I have heard this from other travelers as well

It is full of madressahs and a major Taliban support base

Taliban supporters? Not so much. Intolerant, uneducated, narrow minded, sectarian tribal people? Yes. And it's not just Chillas, the whole Kohistan stretch is like that; Bhesham, Pattan, Dassu, etc., and the long unsettled stretch between Chillas and Dassu is a popular bandit and dacoit travel destination where they go to hide from the authorities.
 
This would make a great movie - I wonder which actress could play the part?...................any thoughts!
 
Hats off to this girl.

Such a long journey and that too on this motorcycle O.O

The seat is too painful for me to sit even for half an hour.

Man these tourists do it right. I've seen videos of them hitch-hiking and bicycling through out GB. I've hitch-hiked from Skardu to Gilgit once. Bicycling and biking though? My spine says "no, thank you".
