Backpacking in Afghanistan?

  • Backpacking in Afghanistan can be wonderful. The people are incredibly friendly and hospitable and the food is delicious. Unfortunately, there have been many conflicts. But, perhaps against your expectations, Afghanistan is currently safer than in recent years. There is little crime and the Taliban no longer carry out attacks because they are in power. Afghanistan is slowly opening its borders to tourists again, but it is important to investigate where it is safe and to keep an eye on the security situation. Be aware of the rules and women's rights in the country. Furthermore, it is difficult to find budget options for accommodation outside of Kabul.
  • Characteristics: Strict laws, difficult to travel, friendly people, good food and a lot of ancient history.

Traveling in Afghanistan?

  • Traveling in Afghanistan is quite a culture shock, even if it is safe enough. It is a beautiful country with beautiful nature and historical sites that were once popular among backpackers, but the political situation is unstable and there are many problems surrounding human rights. Nevertheless, you can have a wonderful trip, as long as you adapt to the local customs.
  • City spotting: Kabul, Mazar-e Sharif, Herat.
  • Activities spotting: Exploring the Silk Road, visiting archaeological sites, eating, cooking classes, attending Sufi Zikr ceremony, chatting with locals over a cup of tea, trying kebabs, hiking.
  • Nature spotting: Afghanistan has incredibly impressive natural landscapes, such as the Band-e Amir National Park with its deep blue lakes surrounded by rugged mountains. The Panjshir Valley with snow-capped mountains. The Wakhan Corridor with rare animals and nomadic communities. The Pamir Mountains - the Roof of the World. And Dasht-e Margo (Desert of Death).
  • Animal spotting: Snow leopard, Afghan ibex, Marco Polo sheep, Bengal steppe eagle, scrub fox, striped hyena. Food Spotting: Kabuli pulao, mantu, bolani, ashak, shorwa, chapli kebab, firni and korme kofta.

Studying in Afghanistan?

  • Education in Afghanistan: The education system in Afghanistan is suffering from the current political situation. Recent reports indicate that the Taliban are further restricting education for women and girls.
  • Language: Dari (Afghan-Persian)
  • Studies: Islamic theology, poetry, ancient languages.
  • Study cities: Kabul, Herat, Mazer-e Sharif, Jalalabad.
  • Language learning: At universities or private institutes.
Back to top

Internships in Afghanistan?

  • Internships: Internships in Afghanistan are not the most common option. If it is safe, it can be a good country for nature conservation, sustainable agriculture (irrigation), humanitarian aid, archaeology, education and journalism.
  • Competencies: Coping with change, development aid, knowledge of Islamic societies, adaptability, intercultural communication, learning new languages.
Back to top

Volunteering in Afghanistan?

  • Volunteering is mainly in development aid - reconstruction, education, health care.
  • Animal/nature projects: Research and nature conservation projects.
  • Characteristics: Hard work, unsafe situation, great contribution.
Back to top

  • Jobs: Most jobs can be found in the NGO and humanitarian aid sector. In addition, there may be jobs at universities and in journalism.
  • Work culture: hierarchy and respect, relationships and networking, working from Saturday to Thursday and conservative clothing.
  • Characteristics: risks, very different from the West, traditional norms, mainly work in the aid sector until the country is safe again.

Working as a digital nomad in Afghanistan?

  • Afghanistan is not a safe or well-equipped country (yet) for digital nomads.
Back to top

Living in Afghanistan?

  • The comfort depends greatly on the region and political situation. In cities such as Kabul, Herat, Mazar-e Sharif and Kandahar there are modern apartments, houses and villas available. International neighborhoods can be more luxurious and have better amenities. The cost of living is cheaper than in Western countries. Basic services such as electricity and running water are unreliable in some areas, and many homes use generators and water tanks.
  • Language: Pashto and Dari.
  • Quality of life: Not all services are reliable. For example, phone reception can be limited and electricity can be unstable.
  • Culture: Neighbors and family play a major role in daily life. Social control is strong, especially in villages. There is a large gender gap and contact between the two is minimal except with family. In a peaceful Afghanistan, expats and foreign workers would settle in well-secured areas, where extra security measures such as guards and checkpoints may be common.
  • Characteristics: Large cultural differences, strict rules, gender differences, warmth, beautiful scenery, limited freedom.
  • Health care: Very limited, private clinics are better, but more expensive. Make sure you have a good health insurance that covers Afghanistan (most don’t!).

To pack and check:
  • Documents: passport valid for at least another 6 months and a pre-arranged visa. Backup copies of important documents.
  • Money: sufficient cash. International payment cards and ATMs are scarce.
  • Clothing: conservative, covering clothing. A headscarf is necessary for women.
  • Personal care: sunscreen, lip balm, and moisturizer for sun, dust, and dry air.
  • Shoes: sturdy hiking boots or other closed shoes.
  • Medicines and travel First Aid Kit: a comprehensive first aid kit and sufficient personal medication.

What knowledge comes in handy when traveling to Afghanistan?

  • Knowledge of the current security situation is essential. The situation varies greatly by region and can change rapidly.
  • Additionally, knowledge of local customs helps enormously. Afghanistan is a conservative society where clothing, behavior, and social etiquette are important.
  • A few words of Dari or Pashto can open doors. Hospitality plays a major role in Afghan culture, and visitors are often received with great friendliness.
  • Also useful to know: Afghanistan consists largely of mountainous terrain. Altitude differences, cold nights, and long travel distances are often underestimated.

Health, Insurance & Safety

How does healthcare work in Afghanistan, and what travel insurance, health insurance or expat insurance do you need?

How does the healthcare system work in Afghanistan, and which insurance do you need?

Back to top

What is the quality of healthcare in Afghanistan?

  • Afghanistan’s health system faces significant challenges and is severely underperforming, especially since the change of government in 2021. Previously, much of the health care was funded from abroad, but since the Taliban takeover, foreign funding has virtually collapsed, severely limiting access to essential health services for millions of Afghans.
  • The health system is divided between both public and private providers, but both are fraught with problems and shortages. This means that for any critical medical issue, you have to be flown abroad.
  • In urban centres, there are slightly more facilities and better trained medical professionals available. In remote areas, there is a severe shortage of medical supplies and staff. This also affects local populations.
  • Female patients and children are particularly affected by the shortage of female doctors and because cultural norms limit access to care. For example, only women are allowed to interview women in their homes, and women must be accompanied by a male family member. There is also an increasing shortage of female health workers due to the ban on education for women.
  • Medical equipment is scarce, especially in public hospitals. Expats and emigrants in need of serious medical care often travel to India, Turkey or the UAE for treatment.
  • Pharmacies are available in urban areas, but don’t always count on supplies. It may be wise to bring your own supply of essential medicines, but make sure you keep them in their original packaging and bring your doctor’s prescription.
  • There is no national emergency number in Afghanistan, so make sure you are well informed about how to get emergency help if needed.
Back to top

How does the public healthcare system work in Afghanistan?

  • Public healthcare is extremely challenging and cannot be compared to the well-developed healthcare systems in some other countries. Basic hygiene is lacking, as are the necessary equipment and medicines.
  • Public healthcare can almost be called private, as it is mainly provided by international donors and NGOs. For example, HealthNet TPO is an important organisation that supports the delivery of primary and secondary healthcare by improving the infrastructure and services of health facilities. Foreigners living in Afghanistan can use public healthcare (although there may be exceptions for women), but this is strongly discouraged due to the state of healthcare.
Back to top

How does the private healthcare system work in Afghanistan?

  • Private healthcare consists of both clinics and hospitals. Healthcare is mainly concentrated in and around urban areas (particularly Kabul).
  • In case of emergency, you can contact the CURE International Hospital, Kaisha Health Care or the Shino Zada ​​Hospital in Kabul.
  • The healthcare is often of better quality, but the costs are also higher. It is often not affordable for the average Afghan.
  • Foreigners are strongly advised to have comprehensive, international health insurance that covers the expatriation for medical care abroad.
Back to top

How is the family doctor or general practitioner arranged in Afghanistan?

  • There is no real GP system in Afghanistan. Access to primary care is limited and people usually go directly to a hospital or specialist if they can afford it.
  • Some private clinics do offer general consultations.
Back to top

How is the dental care and dentist arranged in Afghanistan?

  • Like other healthcare, dental care in Afghanistan is also quite limited. The quality also varies considerably.
  • There is no national database of dentists. It is best to rely on advice from other foreigners and the best chance of good care is in Kabul, at private clinics.
Back to top

How is pregnancy and maternity care arranged in Afghanistan?

  • Access to maternity care is a major problem in Afghanistan. Infant mortality is high, partly due to limited access to medical care and a shortage of female health workers. The country also has one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the world.
  • Support and information about breastfeeding are very limited.
Back to top

How safe or unsafe is a trip or stay in Afghanistan?

What should you pay attention to in terms of safety in Afghanistan?

  • Afghanistan is considered a very unsafe country. There is a high risk of terrorist attacks, kidnappings and other forms of violence.
  • It is strongly discouraged to travel to Afghanistan. Government buildings, embassies and catering establishments are also often not safe from terrorist attacks or kidnappings.
  • There are many explosives in the country, there are many road accidents and the country also experiences the consequences of earthquakes. Because emergency care is so limited, the risks to safety are even greater as a result.
  • Another risk is the strict Islamic law. It is easy to break laws if you are not well informed. So make sure you know the rules well and follow everything.
  • Expats are advised to be extremely careful and only live in secure compounds. Foreign aid workers are often accompanied by armed security.

What should you look out for in terms of diseases in Afghanistan?

  • There are also significant health risks such as malnutrition and limited access to clean drinking water in Afghanistan, especially for locals. Diarrhoea and typhoid are also a problem for foreigners.
  • The air quality in cities can cause respiratory problems.
  • Vaccinations against diseases such as hepatitis, polio and tetanus are strongly recommended.

What should you pay attention to when it comes to traffic in Afghanistan?

  • Road traffic in Afghanistan is chaotic and dangerous. Traffic rules are often ignored, and roads are poorly maintained. Checkpoints and roadside bombs also increase the danger.
  • There is a high risk of traffic accidents, and road travel is discouraged, especially outside urban areas.
  • Taxis and buses are unreliable and potentially unsafe.
  • Expats are advised to use only transport suggested by their organisation or to secure private drivers.

What is insurance for working abroad?

  • Insuring yourself for working abroad means taking out insurance that continues to provide coverage during your paid work abroad.
Back to top

Why take out insurance, and when is normal travel insurance no longer sufficient?

  • There may be several reasons why you need separate insurance for paid work abroad.
  • During your work, local employers generally offer no or limited insurance that does not provide sufficient coverage.
  • The risk of accidents is sometimes greater during your work, for example because you are doing work with which you have little experience or because of the nature of the work.
  • During specific work abroad, additional requirements may apply as soon as you start performing work that involves additional risks. Only special insurance policies offer coverage during this type of work.
  • During work, internships, or volunteer work abroad where you receive a salary or compensation (for example, food or housing), your local health insurance coverage will normally lapse. You will then need special insurance to remain insured for illness and accidents.
  • Standard travel insurance policies generally do not provide sufficient coverage to apply for a work visa or working holiday visa.
  • Standard travel insurance policies generally only cover stays abroad for a limited number of days. If your trip or stay abroad exceeds the maximum number of days, this generally means that there will be no coverage for the entire travel period.
  • Standard travel insurance policies generally only provide coverage for recreational travel without study, internship, or work. If you engage in activities other than recreational activities, this generally means that you will no longer be covered for the entire travel period.
Back to top

What is insurance for working with animals abroad?

  • Insuring yourself for working abroad with animals means taking out insurance that continues to provide coverage during your paid, unpaid, or internship work abroad, where minor or major risks are involved.
Back to top

Why take out insurance, and when is normal travel insurance no longer sufficient?

  • There may be several reasons why you need separate insurance for work abroad.
  • During specific work abroad, additional requirements may apply as soon as you start performing work that involves additional risks. Only special insurance policies offer coverage during this type of work. Almost all standard insurers exclude working with animals from coverage.
  • The risk of accidents is sometimes greater during your work, for example because you are doing work with which you have little experience or because of the nature of the work. All over the world, there are reserves, rescue centers, and zoos where you can roll up your sleeves as a veterinarian, intern, or volunteer. Working with animals or wildlife is not without danger. No matter how cute they may look, or how tame they may behave. All animals can suddenly bite viciously or lash out with a claw or beak. Not only can this result in nasty injuries, but it can also transmit diseases that you would rather not have, and certainly not abroad.
  • During work, internships, or volunteer work abroad where you receive a salary or compensation (for example, food or housing), your local health insurance coverage will normally lapse. You will then need special insurance to remain insured for illness and accidents.

  • Study insurance continues to provide coverage if you start working during your trip, whether planned or unplanned. If you have not taken out insurance before departure that allows you to work, there is no guarantee that you will be able to take out insurance abroad that provides coverage.
  • Study insurance continues to provide coverage if your own country's health insurance no longer provides coverage.
  • Student insurance also covers your healthcare costs above the rates in your own country; with regular insurance, you have to pay the extra costs yourself.
  • Student insurance can also continue to provide coverage if (study) visa issuers impose additional requirements on how you insure yourself, for example if you are going to the US and applying for a J-1 visa.
  • Student insurance continues to provide coverage if you are staying abroad for a longer period of time and want to visit your own country in between.

  • That you have insurance that is valid in the country or countries where you are going to travel and work.
  • That you are adequately insured for the sports and activities you are going to participate in during your period abroad
  • That you are insured for emergency assistance and early return if something happens to you or your immediate family.

  • That you insure your luggage and take sufficient precautions against theft or damage.
  • That you are well insured against personal liability.
  • That you are well insured in case of accidents.
  • That you only insure yourself for legal assistance if there is an immediate reason to do so, unless coverage is already automatically included in the insurance.

Veerkracht en talent ontwikkelen: Zahra uit Kabul

Veerkracht en talent ontwikkelen: Zahra uit Kabul

Image

Ik lees het verhaal van Zahra uit Kabul, opgetekend door Monique Keeris. Een verhaal over een jonge vrouw uit Afghanistan, die ondanks oorlog en dreiging haar kracht hervindt.

Zahra vluchtte zonder haar ouders naar Nederland, waar ze haar oom en zijn gezin herontmoette. Ze vond hier niet alleen veiligheid, maar ook iemand die haar kracht zag: oud-atletiekkampioen Miranda. Twee keer per week mag Zahra inmiddels met haar meetrainen. Dat alleen al is zó waardevol: iemand die je ziet, die zegt “kom erbij”, en je de kans geeft om je talent en je veerkracht verder te ontwikkelen.

Ik kan me zó niet voorstellen hoe het is om als tienermeisje uit je eigen land-in-oorlog te moeten vluchten, zonder je vertrouwde gezin. Zahra laat zien hoe belangrijk sport kan zijn om opnieuw kracht te vinden. En Miranda laat zien hoe belangrijk het is dat iemand je de ruimte geeft om die kracht te ontdekken. Dáár zit de kern van veerkracht: samen optrekken, zodat je zelf weer verder kunt.

Het besef dat veerkracht universeel is — in Kabul, maar eigenlijk in elke levenssituatie — maakt dat dit verhaal me raakt. We kunnen veel van mensen als Zahra én Miranda leren.

Op de foto zie je niet daadwerkelijk Zahra, uit respect voor haar privacy.

Activities abroad

    What social activities can you do abroad?

    • Opportunities are found in the areas of helping, learning or studying. You can get involved to volunteer in a social project at a school in Africa, Asia or Latin America. You can get involved in nature, in a project with animals or cleaning the sea or beaches. Those who want to learn more can choose for example a language course in Latin America, Spain or South Africa.

    What work related activities can you do abroad?

    • If you want to gain work experience, and/or also earn money, go and work abroad. You can combine backpacking in Australia with temporary work. You can work on campsites in Europe or bush camps in Africa. You can pretty much go all over the world to work in the hospitality industry, hotels and hostels, in the healthcare sector or for example at a diving school.
    Back to top

    What sports activities to do abroad?

    • Have you ever thought of mountain biking, rafting (going down a wild river on a raft or rubber dinghy, climbing or canoeing), survival (which involves building rafts, climbing or canoeing), abseiling (descending a rock face while secured to ropes), zip-lining (whizzing down a cable), canyoning (starting at the top of a river and then climbing, swimming, diving down the bed) or caving (scrambling, wriggling and crawling through caves and crevices)?
    • Maybe you feel more comfortable on a bodyboard (on a half-wave surfboard, you surf the high waves lying down-with flippers), on a hang glider or while paragliding (with a parachute you float down a mountain or dune), hydrospeeding (on a bodyboard with flippers and a wetsuit on you go down a wild river via rapids) or Tiefschneeskiing (racing down through powder snow)?
