I was born in Gilgit-Baltistan, where the Karakoram, Hindukush, and Himalaya converge and I've spent my entire life exploring it. I started Seasonal Sights because most online guides to northern Pakistan are written by people who visited once, stayed in tourist hotels, and left. That's not good enough for a region this complex. I know which jeep tracks wash out in July. I know which Hunza guesthouses are actually run by locals. I know that the cherry blossoms in Altit peak 10 days later than the ones in Karimabad and that most travel blogs get this wrong. Everything I publish is based on ground-truth experience, not recycled information. If I haven't been somewhere myself, I won't pretend I have.
