Pakistan Part 2

So, my aunty came down on the weekend and I strictly (asked very politely) for her to bring down her laptop as I mentioned before it has all my photos from my holiday up in Pakistan... So I'm please to announce that I do in fact have all my photos and can now share with you all my wonderful experience and just ah I'm too excited. I just hope you enjoy my photos, okay here we go!

Okay, so these first two are shots taken from my grandmothers roof. Where I was living for the duration of my stay there. It's the best place to stay, because everyone lives in one house. As this is my mothers side, she has five brothers and three sisters now within our culture the female moves in with the male and in this case the females who were fortunate enough to marry my Uncles move into my grandma's house. So you can imagine how packed it is? Not forgetting their kids! So the house is basically like an council flat, whereby there are different floors and stuff so two houses on the ground floor, two on the second and one on the top... But there more like 'rooms' rather than houses but yeah you get the point. So this is the view from the very top.~



Football/ Cricket - as you can imagine sport is very popular up in Pakistan the kids... As well as the adults love playing it as well as watching. ~




Farmhouse! So a week before leaving for England we took a road trip down to my cousins 'Farmhouse' and well through the photos you can see for yourself that it was absolutely gorgeous. The weather, was also perfect. Blue sky a soft breeze and the sun shining not only that but there was a swimming pool too ah. It was perfect, although the water in the swimming pool was freezing (to my family) to me it was fine. Maybe, because I enjoy cold things weather, food, drinks etc but yeah I enjoyed it. So as we visited the farmhouse we also had a little BBQ and used the 'outdoors/ old fashioned kitchen' which gave the food a more 'smokey' taste too it the food was however, way too spicy! My aunts added well to say 'a bit too many' chillies would be an understatement.

So at the farmhouse there were also a variety of animals, my favourites were the birds. Ahh, the birds were absolutely adorable and I actually have a video of the 'pink one' attempting to eat my camera which I shall post in part three!









This is just part one! - Apologies for the late post, I've been busy with coursework and stuff but hopefully I will be posting regularly again!

Peace & Love
