First Impressions of Kurdistan, Iraq 🇮🇶(I did not expect this)

Erbil, Kurdistan ➖ After waiting for the Iraqi heat to subside, I finally made a trip out to this region of the world. A country that has been devastated by war, conflict and politics, but also, a country filled with beauty, culture and history.

I start this journey arriving in Erbil, Kurdistan, an autonomous region in Iraq that has its own military, language and is a whole new country in itself. Kurdistan has been a well-visited destination for tourists for many years with easy visa on arrival facilities.

I actually met a subscriber in the terminal who had also come from Beirut, so I snagged a lift into the centre of town where my hotel awaited me. After checking in to the cheapest hotel in Iraq, I roamed the streets for dinner before meeting up with my friends @worldnomac and @YadVenturess
