NEW !

Dopeness is all over the world. The best way not to miss it is to have a dope local friend who can show you around and discover places that no average travel guide mentions.

For all those who do not have this chance, there is Dope people in the city, a blog where you will find interviews of dope locals presenting their city favorite places and events.

Enjoy !

Skateistan: To Live And Skate Kabul

SKATEISTAN: TO LIVE AND SKATE KABUL from Diesel New Voices on Vimeo.

"Skateistan: To Live And Skate Kabul is a beautifully shot film that follows the lives of a group of young skateboarders in Afghanistan. Operating against the backdrop of war and bleak prospects, the Skateistan charity project is the world’s first co-educational skateboarding school, where a team of international volunteers work with girls and boys between the ages of 5 and 17, an age group largely untouched by other aid programmes."
