It’s difficult to make Kurdish friends, though when you do the bond lasts.

Looking a little better, i just see it as a new adventure.

They are wary of Westerners and their cultural differences, which threaten to subvert Kurdish traditions.

Kurdistan is one of the fastest-developing and increasingly diverse places in the Middle East, but Kurds are highly aware of preserving their culture, and thus they keep foreign cultures at a distance.

Some claim that the Kurdish calendar starts at 700 BC; this was the year Deioces united the Medes according to Herodotus.

However, the claim of unification by Herodotus is proven wrong.
