Just for Fun in Afghanistan

no pork sign in afghanistan

I know it is hard to believe, but my husband really did snap this picture during the Taliban rule of Afghanistan. The sign was at the Kabul airport, and was supposed to indicate a "No Parking" zone.


Fun in Afghanistan? War sometimes brings out humor as a coping mechanism. Here are some things we expatriates find funny in Afghanistan. I'll be adding more funny pics, so check back. Feel free to send what you find funny for me to add here.


Top 10 Reasons To Live In Kabul

  1. Freedom to (creatively) invent your own traffic laws
  2. The police are surprisingly friendly; they hold hands and drink tea together (in the middle of the road!)
  3. A flexible national airline that promotes prayer. Arrivals and departures (and staff) fluctuate, but prayer is constant. The Enshala Airline
  4. Compared to the water, your hands are always sanitary
  5. The chAdar: the ultimate remedy for bad hair days-- culturally acceptable and available in a wide array of colors
  6. Name that Garbage! A-When-the-Kabul-River-is-Flowing–Game
  7. Also known as the Kabul River Garbage Recycling and Demining Program
  8. Citywide quadruped waste management system. (Sheep chic © Waste Engineering LTD)
  9. Feel like a Hollywood Star! Gawking fans staring at you on every street corner! No autographs, please
  10. And the number 1 reason to live in Kabul...drum roll please...

  11. A Target on every corner (but no Wal-Mart)
