IRAQ First Impressions | Walking the Streets of Erbil (friendliest people)

I just want to say that we need more of these kinds of videos! Such enlightenment about the Middle East and Iraq. As an American I feel like all we are taught about that part of the world is negative ☹️ You guys just keep sharing the love and opening some minds ❤️

Look at their faces they are glowing in happiness and from all the love and generosity they received from the Kurdish people. How lovely people!! Greetings from USA.

I'm Iraqi ... and I lived in Erbil for 5 years , Now In Australia . This Video brought back many memories , Thank you guys .

i loved this video so much, the people we're the heart of this entire video <3

آية في الكرم والخُلق والسخاء والود، تحية طيبة من السعودية إلى إخوتنا وأخواتنا في العراق العظيم وكوردستان❤️⁩

This is my FAVORITE video. I was smiling the whole time. I loved how friendly everyone was.

I always hear wonderful things about the people of Kurdistan. I am sure they appreciate tourists and are eager to show some hospitality.

اكو عراقي هنا لو بس انهني فرحانا كولش لأنج اجيتي الشمال اهل الغيرة ميقبلون ياخذون فلوس حية حب واحترام لكل اهلنا بكردستان

Omg I’m literally in tears just by watching this video it’s really nice to see other people come and visit my country because we really welcome our people and we have a lot of amazing people around but mostly our countries get ruined by wars and it’s really nice to see people understanding us 💞😭

Randomly came across this video and it has changed my views about Iraq. They are so good at hospitality. Love and Respect for Kurdistan from India 🇮🇳

The kindness of all these people made me cry too, Kara! So unexpectedly generous and beautiful people!

Before the war in Ukraine I'd been watching you guys for a few years. I was on the country 86/100 in the playlist. After a 3-month power blackout, I continued with the playlist. Every next country you went to was affected by war. As someone who unfortunately happened to know what is like, watching your experience there is still tremendously eye-opening and something I now can relate to. Everything we may hear or see on the media is often far from the truth. And most importantly, what everyday people are like. It melts my heart knowing that one day we can all live in peace again, travel safely, leave the prejudice behind and face a different reality from what we expected. Thank you so much for everything you do. Thank you for showing people the reality of life in different countries in the world! And thank you for your respect and kindness.

تحية حب واحترام لكل اهلنا بكردستان 😘 ولله اعشقكم يا اجمل ناس 💖💋 ... ..#البصرة

Kurds are the most welcoming people ever. Even as a kurd myself they are so friendly to locals too.

I have a lot of kurdish friends. And after seein this video i am even more sure. Kurdish people are the most friendly and warm hearted people in the world love them so much. Hbiji Kurdistan ❤❤❤

I’ve watched so many videos of theirs, and I can say this video had me smiling the whole time. Everyone was so excited and sweet, and I think it’s amazing to see how kind humanity can really be. I feel like we all have gotten so used to people being stand-offish but this is awesome to see!

You two have totally changed my attitude towards this region. For the first time I feel so different towards these people. Keep doing what you two are doing. You are making a difference in the world. Thank you.

It's amazing how nice people can be. You realize that only by traveling and it's total contrast to what the media portrays. I stopped watching the news 2 years ago, now I only watch YouTube including you guys, Kara and Nate who give a true representation of the world, keep it up guys! Joel.

Kindness brings people together far and wide!

You are a nice YouTuber. Showing the reality, love, kindness and simplicity of Iraqi people, you and any tourist are always welcome in Iraq 🇮🇶❤️🇮🇶❤️🇮🇶❤️
