Fact: I came to Pakistan and I haven't spent any money.

Why?

Because nobody will let me. Seriously. This is the world's best hospitality, by a long shot.

Anywhere I go in the world, I always insist on paying -- whether it be for dinners, gifts, taxi rides, experiences, you name it. But the people here in Pakistan (aggressively) won't let me pay. It's insane!!

I LOVE PAKISTAN 🇵🇰
