His Camera is 100 Years Old (he took my portrait!)

My name is Drew Binsky and I am going to all 197 countries in the world. I make daily travel videos about people, culture and anything else I find interesting on the road. My ultimate goal is to inspire you to travel far and wide, because our planet is beautiful!

While wandering the streets of Kabul, Afghanistan the other day, I came across an old man named Haji, who is the last remaining person in the country (and likely the world) who still uses this ancient box camera to take portraits! This vintage device is over 100 years old and it was just FASCINATING to get my portrait taken — it was like straight out of a movie! Here is the full story of Haji and his mind-blowing box camera, which he uses not only as a hobby but as a profession. I think this photo is the best souvenir in my life!
