This is Bejoda and her son Javed, as I enter their house for tea. There are only about 70.000 Wakhis and they are split between Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Pakistan and China, all in the Pamir mountains. They speak an Indo-European language, it’s a very poetic language. The traditional life of the Wakhi people, in the Wakhan corridor, amongst the Pamir mountains.
