Tomorrow I am flying to Turkey with the intention of reaching Kurdistan in Northern Iraq.
What do you know about Kurds?
It is one of the largest ethnic groups that have been deprived of their own state for hundreds of years. It is estimated that there are about 40 million of them in the world, most of them live in Turkey, Iraq, Iran and Syria. The current government of Iraq has agreed to create an autonomous region for the Kurds with its own government, army and flag. It is, for now, such a “quasi-country”…
I wonder what it looks like and what they are like.
This is definitely not a tourist destination and it is not known exactly how the trip will turn out.
Please keep your fingers crossed! 🙂
