Bald and Bankrupt

I have always wanted to travel to mysterious Kafiristan which is nestled in a couple of small valleys in the north of Pakistan. However to reach the northern mountains I would first need to pass through Balochistan, a region of the country that had been fought over for millennia but never quite conquered. In fact just the day before i arrived Iran bombed it. So let's just say, things didn't quite go as expected when I met the Pakistani military...Join me as we cruise the streets of Quetta. Follow @SimonWilson12 and @BackpackerBen for their updates from Pakistan. Edit: it seems Alexander the Great didn’t go through the Bolan Pass as I thought ???? Ffs!

Britain; the world's sixth biggest economy. But what is life like for the average Brit outside of the capital city? Well, I went to investigate and what I found wasn't too promising. Join me on a journey into the provinces of this once great country for what might be my most brutal adventure yet... Thanks to @BackpackerBen for driving me around and please check his channel for his version of the trip.

Bulgaria is a land nestled between sea and mountains on the southern border of Europe. Its location made it a target for invaders but the although subjugated for 500 years, the Bulgarians never gave up their hope to one day be free again. Join me as we make our way towards one of the greatest examples of communist architecture as we explore the hidden past of this nation on our way to...Buzludzha.

Five times I applied for a Tajikistan visa and five times I was rejected without reason. Then someone told me they knew a way to 'cheat' the system and so despite the government seemingly not wanting me I managed to get in. Join me in our 13th former-Soviet republic as we see what exactly it was the Tajik government were trying to stop me from seeing...

What do you think of when you imagine the United Kingdom? Big cities? Football? Buckingham Palace? Well what if I told you there is another part of the UK which is culturally a million miles from those cliches. A place so wild that even most Brits have never heard of it. A place that doesn't even use the same calendar as the rest of the country and celebrates Christmas in January. Believe me? Well, watch and learn about it all for yourself as I take you to the edge of the nation.

Part One: Whilst visiting Kampala, the capital city of Uganda I took a visit to the central market and met a collective of guys who look after an area called the Bermuda Triangle. They took me on a tour and explained exactly what happens when thieves are caught. Mob justice Uganda style. Join me in the ghetto.

Part Two: Well I left the capital city of Kampala and headed south on a long journey across Uganda where I eventually found a bus station which doubled as a flashy watch market and also a place where locals introduce you to women to marry. Unfortunately nobody wanted. Join me... Regarding raising money for the school. I will post about it on my Instagram @realbaldandbankrupt when Ben releases his video about the school next Monday. If anyone wants to throw $5 in it will be appreciated by those little shoeless future porridge drinkers.

Ever since Britain began sending its illegal migrants to Rwanda I’ve wanted to go and see what the country was all about. Were they being sent to a third world hell hole or is Rwanda in fact quite alright? Watch and find out. Oh, and who the flipping heck is Paul Kagame?!

India, it's a bit mental isn't it! I returned to there country after six years away to see how it had progressed ( or not ). Join me in the most frustrating place to travel in the world. Warning: Do not attempt to do this trip yourself unless you are a professional traveller.

In 1975 the Khmer Rouge rolled in to Phnom Penh to begin four years of brutal oppression in Cambodia. Although there were eventually defeated by the Vietnamese in 1979, Pol Pot and his army never went away completely. Hanging on in a northern village until the 1990s. I went to investigate and meet their descendants.

China...what is the truth? Some say it is the future, a utopian world. Some say it is the opposite, a total dystopia where the buildings crumble in your very hands and food is cooked in oil strained from the gutters. I finally got my visa and went to investigate, and what I found surprised me. Maybe it will surprise you too.

With the recent and sudden collapse of the Syrian regime I headed back to the country, this time without a visa to cross the border illegally and explore the country post-Assad along with my friend and guide Rami where we uncovered some crimes including a narco factory that exported dr*gs all over the Middle East. Join me on a revolutionary adventure!

For over a decade there were rumours coming out of Syria of prisons where torture and executions were common place. Men, women and children all arrested on often trumped up charges and left in overcrowded cells to face uncertain but terrifying futures. I went to investigate.
