Thank you, hope you enjoyed the video!

Thank you, I hope you liked the video, it’s been so amazing!

This is Iraq, not separatist US-backed so-called fake "Kurdistan".

Thank you! Glad you liked it, it took quite a while to make this one

It’s so beautiful!!

I'd love to return for sure!

Thank you 🙏🏽 I do feel thankful for being able to have done trips like these

Thank you!

The sights along the Hamilton road really show the beauty here

I'm glad you liked the video! Thank you!

I hope you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching!

A great day and my first outside of Erbil on that trip. This one's probably my favourite video but it's also the one that took the longest to make!

I visited many amazing places there, awesome trip!

Thank you so much! That’s the way this story felt to me and the way I felt I had to tell it. ❤️

So beautiful around there!

Thank you! I hope you enjoyed the video of these beautiful places

Thanks, glad you liked it. It was certainly a lot of fun to make, and that was just one day!

A beautiful place ❤️

Thanks! It was such a beautiful place I wanted the video to do it justice, as good as I can at least. A bunch of footage was sadly written off due to a combination of stupid mistakes and a camera issue, but I think it still came good :)

Thank you! I was happy with this one :-) Some of the earlier stuff was more of a test run, but I like this kind of mini-documentary style. It's the most work though!

Thank you! I was actually in Greece just before I started recording for KZfaq, I love it there! That time we were in Athens, Crete and Thessaloniki. Will be back some day for sure.

Are yu grekk

Thank you! It took effort to make it this way but I thought it was worth it!

@@ChrisKermis good luck on your journey. love from melbourne.

Thank you, I had an amazing time there! Thanks for watching ♥️

Thanks, glad you liked it!

Thank you, I thought this was a fascinating story and some beautiful places!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you! It's a beautiful place!

Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it!

@@ChrisKermis welcome to Kurdistan

It's an incredible place!

I mean no offence on this and hope you appreciate it's difficult for myself and others. If I use just Kurdistan then on the other side many will say "no this is Iraq". I want to stay away from that and simply show the beauty of your land.

Thank you! I did come to Erbil, in fact I stayed there for most of my time. Just spent 1 night away in Suli and another in Duhok. You can see a bit of Erbil in my first Kurdistan video, but there'll be another video coming which will show more. I've still got quite a lot of content to put together :-)

Well, I thank you for talking about my city. It's really a beautiful thing. I'm proud of you. Good luck for the next time.

@@zakaria_tahsin9424 Thank you so much for your kind words, I certainly hope to come back some day!

I would like to see you here again . It is more beautiful now

🤣🤣🤣

I hope you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching!

This is not iraq at all

Thank you!

@@ChrisKermis 😊

It’s not Iraq

🤣🤣

Interesting, I hadn't heard that side. Thanks for the info

My apologies, it is not my intention to go at all into the politics of a country - I simply want to show the beauty, particularly to those in other countries who may have negative images. I put "Iraqi Kurdistan" so as to represent the part of Kurdistan which is an autonomous region within the current borders of Iraq. No intention to cause offence to you or any other Kurdish people. I hope at least I have shown Kurdistan in a good light, as the beautiful place that it is.

Her biji heval biji kurdistan Vivi kurdistan ❤️🇹🇯🇹🇯

You are really funny that it is the borders of Iraq and it is called the Kurdistan region of Iraq. Do not lie and believe the lie. You are not a state. It is only a province. All of your salaries are from Baghdad and the Iraqi government. Your oil is from the Iraqi government. You live and eat from the Iraqi nuggets, your money is Iraqi, your passports are Iraqi, so shut up. When you are a country, which is impossible to happen, because once iraq separates, Turkey will take the whole north region according to the expenditures of Sais-Pico. You are just a child. You do not know that this is a serious issue and that it is not a child’s game or pride. You are not Iraqis, and I admit this, and we are not honored to be of you, but the land belongs to us historically. real history. Politically, if you were really good, you would have gone out, fought and died in order to obtain a homeland. Do not sit behind the screen and bark like dogs. Iraq will remain one from the north to the south. You are only able to talk like this about northern Iraq. You have Turkey, Iran and Syria. You become cowards when you talk about it. You are really funny.

@@ChrisKermisCan you not go into the politics and history of the country? How shameful it is for you to present the problem only from their biased side. Why do you not go to Turkey, Iran, and Syria and meet the Kurds there as well and demand the building of a state, but do not come only to Iraq and demand the building of a state for the Kurds only here. Why should only we give our land to them and the rest of the countries do not give. The three provinces that you see are all built by Massoud from Iraq's money and oil that he took from the government of Iraq. And you, do you think that separation is so easy, who will agree, neither Turkey, nor Iran, nor Syria, nor us, nor America, nor Israel, which they have a relationship with, nor Russia, nor any strong country will agree because the borders are built according to the Sais-Picot agreement, and if this agreement is broken. This means that there are no Arab countries, all of which belong to Turkey. Do America and Europe accept that? You are talking about something that is impossible to happen. It is the policy of countries and not just the policy of Iraq, and these people are brainwashed. If we do not have love or origin, interests will bring us together. The Kurds are the ones who will die if the separation occurs. Turkey will seize everything and it will become a war. Turkey is thousands of times larger than three provinces. It is represented by Kurdistan and the army as well. Do not forget that Turkey is allied with all countries and America will also enter. The only loser in this all is the Kurds who demand a homeland They walk with their emotions, they do not study the subject, they do not see the truth, and they do not think about what will happen to them in the future

Yes it’s Iraq I’m Kurd to but still we share with Iraq so Kurdistan open for everyone if you want be county you have to except everything black whiat brown this matter

I understand. With these videos I simply want to show the beauty of your home to a world that mostly doesn't realise it exists.

@@ChrisKermis yes but even in a good way. I don’t like my home to be called as another person’s house. 🥰 Anyway I didn’t mean bad. It’s a nice video but sometimes when I see foreigners come to here I even help them to show them the places that I think they will like the view or a historical place or something else that people would love to see. And I tell them this is not Iraq and it’s just our land got invaded ( uk / France ) and more then after some time. I see their videos. Wow you don’t believe this is Iraq. They don’t even share one word about Kurdistan. They call it like Kurdish area. 🤨 okay no if I visit my friends in Ukraine I will post a video. You don’t believe this is Russia. Wow 😯. Even if I would show the beauty of Ukraine. Ukrainian would hate that if I called it Russia. I think you got it. Thanks

@@bnarim I do get it. It's always tough making something like this. I could go into the history, politics and otherwise, but I think then less people (who don't already know) would watch it. Maybe by showing it in this way it helps to raise awareness. At least that is my hope. ❤️

@@ChrisKermis thanks for the video. ✌️❤️

Invaded!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

That makes sense, I will always see Haval as a friend!

@@ChrisKermis recently seen your videos. food videos are good but i love the way you do your documentary type videos.your voice is like a pro tv presenter.

@@billydylan4084 That's the one's I like to make the most. Just finding my way at the moment and seeing what is most popular. The food vids get the most views though I think they could be a lot better. I'll continue to do both styles for now. Thanks a lot for your feedback!

Hope you enjoyed the video!

Thank you, I will some day. I hope you enjoyed the video about your beautiful land.

Hahaha yup because this is kurdistan ❤️☀️💚✌🏻
