Housing Opportunities

So if you are interested in buying property in Afghanistan, you should consider Ghor.  You can't beat the location - this is about a five minute drive from downtown Chagcharan.  OK, so technically there aren't any roads to drive over - that's not entirely fair; there is one stretch of two kilometers that has been paved, the first and only paved road in the entire province, which is about 450 kilometers wide and 220 or so tall.  On the other hand, there's not much traffic to deal with.  On this stretch of hilly dirt, people have sketched out rectangles where they will put the walls around their houses, and some of them, as you can see from the heaps of rocks, have even brought from the hills the raw materials for their walls.  Rock walls are fancy; most people just have mud walls.  Anyway, if you're interested, let me know, and I can probably get you a good deal.
