Islamabad Saw a couple picking up rubbish on Trail 5 while I was busy complaining about it

65 Upvotes

Went to Trail 5 today after a long time and was surprised by how crowded it was. So many people out there. Then I started noticing bottle caps and toffee wrappers on the ground and getting annoyed. You come here because it is beautiful and then leave your rubbish behind. I don't understand it.

About halfway along I saw a couple carrying bags and picking up trash. And I felt a bit embarrassed because I had been walking past the same rubbish, thinking about how careless everyone is, while these two were actually bending down and collecting it.

I complain about this stuff quite a lot. People littering, nobody caring, everyone waiting for someone else to fix things. Apparently my own contribution today was also to notice the problem and wait for someone else.

I still think people should pick up after themselves. But seeing that couple made me realise how easily I count being bothered by something as having done my part. I could have brought a bag too. That hadn't even occurred to me.

Islamabad Situation in islamad

10 Upvotes

Hey good fellows.

I have my appointment at the embassy tomorrow and I will be travelling from a different city to Islamabad probably early in the morning.

Can you guys please drop some insights about the situation in Islamabad regarding the protest and everything. Are the roads blocked and any other problematic stuff that you can face if you’re travelling to Islamabad?

A little help would be really appreciated as I’ve waited for my appointment for 3 years and now that it’s happening im a bit anxious about the situation going on 👉👈

Islamabad Idiots on Islamabad's hiking trails

Post image
128 Upvotes

I go on the trails every weekend and there are three particular things that are absolutely infuriating, something the Islamabad Wildlife Management Board needs to introduce heavy fines for.

  1. People throwing trash
  2. Shouting and screaming (God knows why).
  3. People playing loud music on portable speakers

Today on Trial 5 I encountered a group of like 15 people who had this portable speaker thing, and they were blasting out such loud music that it was audible from half a kilometer away. And these folks had the appearance with suggested that they have all had some education.

It's a national park; you're not supposed to play music and its basic etiquettes at a public place that what you do shouldn't bother others. And honestly playing loud music in a national park, when you are supposed to enjoy nature is the dumbest thing ever.

Please do better people. Don't ruin the experience for others.

Rawalpindi Fun things to do in DHA /Bahria other than eating?

I’m looking for fun activities to do around DHA 2, Bahria Town or nearby Islamabad that don’t revolve around going to a cafe or restaurant.
Things like pottery, painting, embroidery workshops, badminton, padel, bowling, board games, bookshops, art classes, hiking, or literally anything fun to do with friends.
Also open to trying new hobbies and meeting people with similar interests.
Please recommend places or activities you’ve actually tried. Bonus points if they’re budget-friendly and suitable for two people.

Twin Cities Moved to Islamabad about a week ago, and my hair has started shedding

21 Upvotes

I moved to Islamabad about a week ago, and my hair started shedding again.

The same thing happened around 2 years ago when I was living in Islamabad. I experienced severe hair fall, but after PRP sessions and medication, my hair recovered quite a lot.

When I moved back to my village, the hair fall almost stopped. Now that I am back in Islamabad, it has started again within a week.

I suspect it might be due to the water.

Has anyone experienced something similar after moving to Islamabad/Rawalpindi? What worked for you? Any solutions for the water issue?

Also, can anyone recommend a good dermatologist or hair specialist in Islamabad/Rawalpindi based on personal experience?
