Country chapter · Afghanistan
More than one way into a country
My first connection to Afghanistan began through food: a study snack beside my notes, a large dinner shared with my family and, on another day, handmade Mantu.
This page is the doorway to everything I collect over time—recipes first, then culture, personal reflections and resources that help me look deeper.

The Culinary Journey is the first complete chapter. It follows the project across several days and keeps the recipes separate from the personal story.
