Chat With Tahir Shah. Chat With Tahir Shah. 1 What really urges you to travel and explore? Is it a hunger for adventure? Or a reality check on life? WHAT DRIVES ME IS AN EAGERNESS TO LEARN AND UNDERSTAND, NOT THE BIG PICTURE BUT THE ORDINARY STUFF. I’M OBSESSED ABOUT MICROCOSMS. I WANT TO SIT IN A CAFÉ AND WATCH THE WORLD GO BYE. IT’S THERE YOU SEE REAL LIFE, HUMANITY, CULTURE. I’M NOT INTERESTED IN HAVING MY PICTURE TAKEN AT NATIONAL MONUMENTS OR BESIDE THE SEVEN WONDERS OF THE WORLD. PERSPECTIVE IT’S A...

HOW DID YOU START TRAVELLING? Then, in my late teens, encouraged by my parents, I started to travel alone. First, I went to America and learned to fly.

BEYOND THE DEVIL'S TEETH. Beyond the Devil's Teeth. Forty-five million years ago, the supercontinent of Gondwanaland split apart. This created what are now known as India, Africa and South America.
