For every article praising Tyler Brule, there is one criticizing him. It’s not hard to see why – his persona is based on exclusivity, not something that plays well in the current economic climate. Yet it’s because of the current economic situation that Brule should be applauded. His success in creating Monocle and more recently, his launch of the Monocle 24 radio station is remarkable. In a shaky print market, he has put premium content to the forefront and demonstrated why quality print is still relevant. I just picked up the latest issue of Monocle and its brilliant – a mix of style, politics, design and reportage. The world needs more magazines like Monocle, and more entrepreneurs like Tyler Brule.

The Wndr Kabul mobile app is nearly ready – it’s the first mobile application guide to Kabul. It’s free, so download it at: www.wndrkabul.com or if you are an Android user, download here. There is still lots of content to be uploaded, which will be a continuous process over the coming months. We have a Facebook page and a Twitter account, so let us know what you think.
In my quest for new content, found this remarkable video. Showcases some of the stunning scenery the country has to offer. Planning a trip back there later this year, possibly to Mazar-e-Sharif and Herat.
