Changes

Pakistan has borders with [[Iran]], [[Afghanistan]], [[China]] and [[India]].

I hitchhiked from Islamabad North through Abbottabad, Naran, Babusa Top. Till there getting picked up was very easy, however, to explain hitchhiking was not that easy. But people were nice and helpful. From Babusa Top I hitchhiked down and at some point police stoped the car I was in and told me I have to go with them, as I didn't register at the top and I was illegal now and have to go back. As it was already pretty late in the afternoon it would have taken too long to get up again to register me and then to go back, so they decided (or rather the tribes, that stopped the police) decided that I should go to Chilas. In Chilas I was not allowed to stay in my tent, but had to go to a hotel and the police or one policeman would always be next to me and stay in front of my hotel room. Explaining that I do not want this would not help. (Chilas is considered a dangerous area, there were fights between the tribes and different shiites and sunnis happening. soon the Area around Chilas will be flood, they are building the Diamer-Bash-Damm there at the moment.) Later in that evening in Chilas a policeman would come and interview me (similar like in Quetta). And I had to sign some papers, do some selfies.

From Chilas police would not allow me to hitchhike and they had actually no idea how to deal with me. (being a woman and alone, they seem to have never seen something like this) they kept on asking me where my brother or my husband would are.
