This solid gold Afghanistan travel charm recalls a country of craggy beauty, vivid (and often harrowing) history and some of the friendliest people on the planet. In clamorous Kabul, you can still find a few traces of expat hippie culture — though it's in rural villages where you'll find the real rhythms of Afghan life, often unchanged for centuries. You'll find a warm welcome indeed on the road to the Hindu Kush.
