But with changing times, the mainstream media – international, as well as local – has created this image of Pakistan as a brutal, war torn, savaged country where life is on a standstill.

To make sure they don’t take back memories like this, you need to make sure you don’t create opportunities for memories like this.

 

The vibrant hustle and bustle of our cities is extremely infectious

And Pakistan’s culture, beauty and the sun makes them fall in eternal love with it

Making them never want to leave, ever.
