Hey All,
I've been given a pretty good job offer in Afganistan but, have no idea what nightlife would be like there... Have any of you heard? It's not a djing job...
Thanks, Beetz

I know a few friends who are working at the university in Kabul. From what I hear you stay in these fairly big walled up hotels with all the other international people. Which I guess can be kind of fun. You get picked up and driven to work and go straight back to the Hotel at night.
If you are interested I can try and put you in contact with this friend. He has gone over there several times. Though he didnt go for the money, he is doing it as a volunteer to help setup the University.
I was asked to go too, but they wanted someone for a year. I remember my mother: "I know I cannot forbid you to do anything since you are adult, but I forbid you to go". Anyways, the winter is harsh, you will have little opportunity to interact with local people. In the end I felt it could be interesting, but one year is way too long.

And, I'd get enough vacation to hit Carnival, visit Thailand, and come home a couple times as well.
That would be cool to meet your friend lsmith! I'll let you know if I decide to do it.
Thanks
i saw a documentary about the middle east and I can't remember what country but the young people weren't allowed to party in public. These guys they were interviewing had a rock band and the only place they could play was their own basement in secrecy. If they wanted to party they had to do it discretely and at their own home.
Afganistan is the new ibiza, haven't you all heard?
if you are a westerner in Afghanistan people want to kill you!!! thats why you'd be getting paid so much. its doubtfull that you would be able to go out during the day, let alone at night, which there is most likely a curfew in effect ( for everybody, not just westerners )
