Reza: Pashtun Tribal Zone


Pashtun Tribal Zone, Afghanistan
With eyes that seem older than her years, this Afghan girl lives near Tora Bora, once home to Osama bin Laden. High in the mountains, the Pashtun tribal region offers many trails that lead to Pakistan. The Pashtun have never recognized the formal border cut through their territory, the 'Durand line' drawn by the British diplomat Sir Henry Mortimer Durand in 1893 to separate British India from Afghanistan, and later used as the basis for the border between Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Reference: Reza.

Piercing green eyes, careless eye makeup, and face propped up like so, all of which make this Afghan girl curiously seem as if she were modeling.  She must've had a cold, and she must not have had anyone to wipe the sniffle from her face.
