- In this episode I am visiting the Echelles de Lelouma - centuries old handmade staircases hugging the steep cliffs of Guinea. There is a fascinating history to these stairs and it baffles me that they are still being used until today...

Have you noticed how this amazing young woman never refuses a smile or a friendly word to anyone? It doesn't matter how tired or busy she is. Noraly is amazing!!! V🎉🎉😂😂
True words! Well seen...
@@kenvanlit402 Pindakaas!
That is the secret to getting along in foreign places.
If you haven't noticed by now, it's in her nature. She shows it over and over, again and again.
yep, it shows the true character of a lovely person.
Today I met a very petite lady with greying hair while standing in line at Popeyes for lunch. I noticed she had a slight accent, beautiful white teeth, a super friendly and very pleasant attitude/disposition, and asked her where she is from. She said Ghana. I mentioned that I'm watching Itchey Boots drive her moto thru West Africa and am so impressed with how friendly and helpful ALL the people there are to Noraly. She lit up like a sprarkler !! She offered me a coupon she had for a big discount on a meal, I accepted and then noticed she was very exacting on her purchase and counting her money very carefully. Then the cashier stepped away for a moment and I thought, "What would Noraly do??" When she returned I asked her to add the lady's ticket to mine. A friendly protest ensued but I prevailed and we were both very happy with the result.
THANK YOU Noraly for showing us the "best side" of people all over the world. THANK YOU, too, Noraly for inspiring one of the happiest moments I've had in a long time.
I would bet that this same type of happy encounter happens a thousand times a day everywhere, to a greater or lesser extent, due mainly to you showing all of us the other people in this world.
Lowndes that was truly a great respectful thing you did. Kudos to you !
Indeed, that was a great act of kindness! Thank you!
how sweeet you are !
Did the bus driver get up and start clapping?
LOVE THIS! NORALY INSPIRED❣
For those of you who don’t ride out there….what Noraly did today was insane! The ride would leave 90% of the men riding it begging for mercy….and she threw in a hike in boots and full gear! YOU GO GIRL!
Once again, great stuff with the interaction with the local people, taking the time to let them check you out. Also….I will say it again…Honda should be sponsoring you somehow. You are showcasing how good their bikes are.
Love and respect to you Itchy Boots!
Honda really should be giving her bikes for life - and shouting about it. How those fork seals don't explode, I'll never know. To fully support Noraly, It would cost Honda a fraction of Marquez's crash repairs for just one race weekend, and hold a lot more kudos.
@@davidmcmillan8408 MM crash repairs 😅😅😅
And she did it on just a mango and some bread and water.
A hike at 104 degrees fahrenheit in that gear and of course the ride to.
There are very few words to describe NORALY's courage, commitment, dedication to seeking out the unknown, the people, the lands, the scenery, the jungles, simply the marvel and richness of life.
Yes I find myself as well as noticing other commenters struggling to find words that do her justice. Noraly is just that special and I've never seen anyone like her. We are watching a legend in the making.
How on earth do those woman climb those Bamboo stairs with massive bundles on their heads? Absolutely unbelievable!
We don't see much conversation or sightings of women, but when we do it is very telling and so interesting.
i know scary
That's Africa,where things you might see impossible to the west is just a normal life style
no kidding - thats what i wanna know! wow
It’s more like a ladder than stairs. And I’m sure it’s not OSHA approved.
As usual, when you are respecful and interested in people...like ALWAYS asking their names....they respond in friendly ways. Such a great lesson to all of us!! Wonderful!!
How does one engage authentically with children? Just start by askung their names. Do as Noraly does.
@@NewSkiwi children like animals can sense it.
@@gordonpratt4110 Even if it were as you say, the comparison of children with animals seems at least, let's call it, awkward
Treat people the way you want them to treat you. This is a winning point.
@gedanst1
That's a common comparison actually and it's to do with innocence.
I'm amazed how you find decent overnight accommodations no matter where you are on the planet Noraly. We subscribers are watching you make history. Thanks for the privilege.
Noraly is the only adventure rider on CZcams that is actually doing real adventure riding. Lyndon and some others are just doing highway miles on their giant "Adv bike". Keep it up Noraly.🎉
In english? yes. In spanish there are two more guys, one of which, is also friend of Noraly. His channel is Charly Sinewan, 14 years traveling around the world. All his content is in Spanish, but he speaks English and travelled all around the US during some of those years
He is basically the same as Noraly but male version, they even have a couple of episodes together when they crossed paths in El Salvador (in Noraly's channel is season 6 episode 61 and 62). The only difference I see is that Charly tries to ride and meet the whole country while Noraly goes a lot faster. Charly started america in 2016 and stayed in the US close to 2 years, same in Mexico and in every single country he stays way too long, riding through small towns and meeting people and interviewing them.
The other guy is Agustín Ostos, his channel "Soy Tribu". 5 years on road and 18+ countries. He makes a ton of interviews of native American towns in his travels through south and central America, right now he is in Mexico.
for sure

@@ronmurray7349 I don't know what was his true intentions but I would never know for this two persons without his comment. It is the same how people did find out for C90 adventures and it is fun to watch them all. I think it is nice to share, because thanks to those kind of people more people is inspired to face their fears and they go to try the same. There was always this kind of brave people in any generation trough our history but the information wasn't so easily passed along. Peace to you!
lyndon as in lyndon poskit ?? the stuff he put that poor 690RR through would break the CRF in half
The children love being around an adult and showing off their skills. It is so exciting for them....Boundless energy
I don't know if you get to read these. I am 75 and as my life is winding down, I am so impressed with you. You are living life with courage and to the fullest. I stopped riding dirt bikes back in1989. I crashed hard and snapped four ribs in half two inches from my spine. So I only ride street bikes now. I really enjoy watching your videos and know that you have so much to do to make them. The most important thing about them is you are showing the beauty of God's creation. The lands and the people. Most of us here in my small part of the world only get to see places when they are in the news. We only hear about a place when there is a war or a disaster. Your videos show the amassing way humanity lives. Even in places were it is so backwards without running water or electricity. Yet they have so much dignity. I hope you know Jesus because you are showing His creation in His light. everywhere the good and loving people. Well done. May God bless you and keep you safe.
Be respectful like Noraly and do not bring any form of religion in to this.
At 75 you still have a lot to learn!
Have a good day.
[Phl 1:21 ESV] 21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
@S S How rude. You were raised with no morals or tack. Cringy. People like you always mess things up. Sad thing is you don't even know you're a horrible person.
@@human1513That was a bit harsh. The man made a very nice comment ……. I am not a religious person myself but I respect another person’s beliefs. Since Noraly has shown many churches in her videos i sense she has her own religious beliefs and would not have a problem with the mans comment.
Sorry Peter but I find "I hope you know Jesus" a wee bit aggressive.
one mango …
40 degrees of scorching heat…& telling us bout the story of 19th. century old ladder
Walking with full gear….it’s amazing ….
You are nothing less than special force soldier …
Salute your passion
02:25 Naraly ... famous like a Hollywood-Star! 🥰
Fortunately, Noraly is able to recognize the narrow border line between adventure and hazard. She is sometimes touching hazard but very sparsely. Her ability to survive difficult conditions is just WOW!
That is a great observation. She seems to have so few incidents because she knows how to manage risk. 🤞👍
@@Pesmog As she has said, when one is alone and the bike is fully loaded, one takes fewer risks than when with companions or if the heavy luggage is left at a hotel.
She does amazingly well, but the truth is the border between adventure and hazard is very unpredictable. Her faith in people is inspiring, but also more dangerous than she seems to realize. It's hard not to be concerned for her.
Noraly you are born to be an adventurer...and with your positiv energy, your smile and your empathy, you conquer hearts all over the world! Keep it up and stay safe🍀
Noraly you are doing something that l really wish that l could be doing. I feel like I am riding along with you as l watch your adventures. My wife and I can't wait for your next adventure. Thank you for taking us along with you. Bless you and stay safe!
She’s an example !
Agree with you 💯 👍 ❤
I don't believe she was not born to be an adventurer. I believe she had a motorcycle travel experience in India that became a passion. She is living that passion and sharing it with all of us.
When I was a kid I used to follow SUPERMAN. Now I follow SUPERNORALY !👍
Very very few tourists visit those ladders in Guineau. Noraly is unbelievable.
Your cinematography is so good. The locals marveling over your GPS and hiking with the young boys...wonderful. Hats off to you making those sketchy roads and single track look easy. Have a well deserved rest.
I love how all the locals are so curious and full of hospitality to someone that could be from another planet. This is TRUE HUMANITY! Not all the BS we see on the news. Inspiring! 👩🏿🧒👧🏼🧔🏾♂
This is why I'm addicted to Itchy Boots. Keep on rollin' Noraly.
No democrats there !
you mean another human being?

Good morning from St. Charles Missouri USA!!❤
Good afternoon from Cape Town South Africa.
I use to comment more, but this woman leaves me speechless. I’m an old guy and I wonder what Noraly will be thinking when she’s very old sitting on some chair staring out into the world. Will the mountains and trees and rivers she’s crossed or rode past, will they remember her. What a remarkable person she is. I might add lovable also. Ride on dear Noraly.❤
Those kids are so lighfooted over those rocks, running like mountain goats over it. Where you are now is so beautiful and way of the beaten track. 👍🏻
You look fine in this video.. red eyes or not!! Those children were precious and so were the villagers looking at your GPS... Friendly people everywhere!
Thank you Noraly and take care til next time.🙏❤
That's how it is here in West Africa, a lot of Mayo on the bread, Black Beans with African Pepper, or any other food they can put on the bread like eggs, or Sardines. Being here for 6 years now and having no running water for the last 3, as an American, I confess a less stressful life is not a bad way to spend my Senior years, plus the added cultures of different village's and customs is precious! I have been blessed. As you are also being Blessed! I love your channel! We are Blessed for sure! Some of these children grow up knowing multiple languages. Some as many as 5 languages, like my wife. I cannot imagine learning that many languages!
What country are you in?
Why did you choose to live there as an American?
Props to you for chosing a simpler lifestyle without commercialistic brow beat!
Yes, I'm 73, living in the jungle. Lovely quiet simple life. Whew ! We made it OUT of the concrete jungle. KUDOS!
Children in the "3rd world" are usually so mature & intelligent, more so than many adults in developed places, but still kids! Awesome 🤙
Oh, my dear…. I was really worried about you. Overheating can be very dangerous. I am glad those little ones were with you.
Noraly please don’t worry about how you look! In fact the more dusty you get on the outside the more your inner beauty shines through! 💚👌
That 'ladder' in the ravine show the ingenuity, toughness and strength of the local people.....what needs to be done to survive, will be done !! And Noraly....how you can remain so calm while riding such terrain AND give commentary, is beyond me......I salute you !!!!!
That is the difference with Noraly, she shows respect and always that big smile….of course people are going g. Yo like jet and respect her….I cannot stop watching her adventures, they make my day!
Exactly…her personality wins over difficult situations….
It amazes me how there are people living in a different era…….almost primitive…..the kids are wonderful….they sounded happy. God bless them all.
Interesting observation. I couldn't agree more with you.
I’m 75 and been riding since 15. I only have praise and admiration to all your efforts and determination. We envy your spirit and thankful for sharing your adventures with the likes of us of the same spirit. God bless you always, Noraly.
You are a master storyteller, videographer and entertainer
What a day!!! Oh, how I love seeing this country and the wonderment of all the people as you stop for a break. Kids are so curious and such a pleasure to see how they interact. I can only imagine how steep that ladder was as it looked steep on the GoPro lol. What a history and to think it’s still used! Alaska is definitely gonna need some looking over after this day...but she keeps on regardless, just like her fearless rider. Great video!
You can always rely on two things: the ingenuity of humans; and the fact that young kids will always show you up when it comes to dexterity. The country looks as hot as yourself and just as hospitable. As for Alaska ...... Honda give this rider mega support (and bucks)!
Always carry sweets or candies for children....give them. That will stick in their minds forever. They will never forget you.
Africa is incredibly beautiful and culturally rich. People are mostly good and smart. Nice that you show this to the world!!!!!
lol
Culturally rich? Is that another way of saying desperately poor? I love learning about cultures different than my own but feel for those who live in desperate conditions.
Lies.
Its stone AGE PLACE.
What really amazes me in your travels over the years is how you can find a place to stay at night (when you are in the middle of NO WHERE!) Amazing!
I am amazed you never seem to have to go to the bathroom. And where would you go? You are Superwoman for sure! I don't want to be too nosy about personal things like that, but if it were me I'd have to go every few hours!
@@pillaroflight88answer is easy, she films in between bathroom breaks!
@@pillaroflight88 Yes I was thinking the same thing about that! Pack a lot of toilet paper!
That I am asking me too.
@@pillaroflight88 That’s my question! How does she handle “going” all over the world?
Your interactions with the locals are so heartwarming, Noraly. You truly are the world's Ambassador of Kindness.
bonjour novaly , les guinéen sont adorable , et leur pays est trés beau , merci pour celle découverte que tu nous offre
Maximum Adventure Achieved! Once again you have taken us above and beyond what a normal tourist could ever experience. Thank you. Ride Free Noraly.
Your travels are a welcomed reminder of our humanity and man's innate ability to innovate, adapt and survive earth's continuing challenges. God bless Noraly. Safe travels.
Happy you found a nice place to sleep and rest, give Alaska some extra TLC too.
Amazing woman, many could learn how to behave in foreign countries from your example, great ambassador. Much love and respect for you Noraly 🤟
Do we need special behavior when we travel?? I think all is common sense
I begin to think, you are a spirit. The courage is too much ❤❤❤
If these stairs were in Britain you would have Ranulph Fiennes and a team of 14 helpers climbing them and an entire camera team from the BBC, yet here we have kids going up and down on a daily basis.
Well done kids you are heroes.
Noraly you are already a hero.
those kids, without you even expecting it, were your guides to the stairs. it was awesome to see.
That was like a movie. 🏞🎥
Yes those children were so excited to join her...and then show her the way....so So beautiful 😊
guiada por los niños... eso fue mágico...
Amazing to watch Noraly reach the edge of an extremely incredible adventure- literally. It seemed she was going to be the next kid climbing down the rope n vegetation ladder but thank god she desisted. Knowing one’s strengths and weaknesses is the most useful tool for survival in wilderness and Noraly definitely has it in her. No doubt it was a tough ride today and Noraly must’ve been thoroughly exhausted at the end of the day. It was greatly interesting to watch the vlog today just to find out where she wanted to reach finally. Good luck Itchy Boots, and thank you for taking us to almost inaccessible places. Ride Safe
Always amazed at how things on the bike don’t get stolen when Noraly leaves it unattended
I have always marveled at that as well.
@@11ms62 me to ?? unbeliverble ???
Not everyone is a thief and it goes to show that people in the countryside tend to have better behaviour but also the way Western media portrays the whole continent of Africa is famine war death and robbery.
But infact id trust my bike out in the countryside of Africa faster then in a city because I find you have every scumbag congregate in dense populated areas where they have more chance
These are different Africans.
Theft is only an issue where there is a demand for the stolen goods.
It is just amazing that you take time out to see all the interesting places on your way. It makes the whole ride so much more valuable and memorable. It's a real PIA to have to carry a camera- mounted helmet wherever you go, and to wear the protective clothing, ...especially in a freakin' jungle. But you always manage and we appreciate all you do!!
Wow. There's the middle of nowhere and there's the middle of nowhere...That really was the middle of nowhere!
Yet again you've dug out a treasure which few others would even attempt to find. Awesome stairway, lovely people and an epic ride. Well done you! and thank you for sharing it with us :)
OMGosh Noraly ! What a day ! Incredible that ladder ! Great kids to help you. They stuck around to help you remember the way back !
Despite you being tired , you look so so happy ! Thanks for sharing your adventures ! 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Noraly is such a champion! 🙂👍👍
Thank you for bringing us to the ladders . . . glad you didn't try, in your boots and exhaustion.
The bread with beans & mayo, sounds perfect!
Those boys will remember that mini-adventure with Noraly on the stairs for the rest of their lives. Kudos to little Alaska - she is almost as tough as Noraly! 😃
Noraly and Honda go together, because they are both Perfect....for the job !👍
What an amazing day over rocky ground, yet a smile and wave to all the friendly people. Thanks for an amazing adventure as you ride the world.
Noraly A big smile what journey you're on sée the all people warm greetings be strong and courageous safe travels great day thanks 😊🙏.
One thing that has struck me is the meticulous planning that Noraly has undertaken. It seems her itinerary is well -planned not a kind of random movement. Her rapport with the people is quite infectious - you cannot ignore her at all. Awesome!
I can’t figure out if Noraly is insane or super brilliant!! But either way I LOVE THIS CHANNEL❣️❣️❣️❣️
You are so beautiful,a super human being .
Brilliance and insanity are common bedfellows: Noraly is compelling.
@@tonynorris9139 I completely agree.
Think its a good mix of that two.😅
She is doing what atleast 2/3 of the people wish they could do. Most don't have the guts to travel how she is let alone country to country alone. Shes slightly insane for that making her extraordinary
Your appearance is as always amazing no worries,if Honda doesn’t have a contract with you they are missing out. So impressive every time you stop a group gathers and more friends made. The ride of a lifetime every day,these videos put smiles on faces around the world.
Noraly you are so chill. Kept those kids under control like a pro. Not even a curse word needed. They loved you.
**Hi Noraly!!**
It has been a minute since I have last seen a video of yours, albeit I did know that you were "tackling" the continent of Africa on Alaska, Impressive, very impressive indeed!!!
When you started doing the racing thing, I thought to myself.., "damn... good for you Noraly, as I absolutely believe in, and love seeing a brave, strong and beautiful young woman like you, taking on a "mostly male, sporting event," such as over-country, motorcycle racing...
👏... well done, you!!! HOWEVER, and having said that, I now have started abandoning that thought... because in ALL SERIOUSNESS... I HONESTLY BELIEVE THAT YOU HAVE FOUND YOUR TRUE CALLING....., and that is, exploring the entire world on an Enduro motorcycle, while documenting, sharing, in its entirety, every physical, every emotional and every crazy-fun moment along the way!!! I am going to go out on a limb here, and state this... I do believe in your future, and your very own "NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC," travel show!!!!! NOWWWWW, THAT TRULY WOULD BE EXCITING, while ushering in New breath in the tired old concept of travelling/exploring television shows!!!! Because, NO ONE, AND I MEAN ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, IS DOING IT AS WELL, AND WITH AS MUCH PASSION AS YOU ARE DOING IT!!!!!
ANYWAY, KEEP ON KEEPING ON SISTER EXPLORER!!!!!!!!!!😁
PEACE!!!!!!!!!!✌🏼
Quite the entourage of wonderful children guiding you on your hike👍
So much for us being the civilized people. If you were to abandon your bike anywhere I live, that would have been the last time you would have seen it. Another amazing video, thanks again.
i'm amazed that it was still intact when she got to it. no secure helmet storage, no locks. it would have been gone in any civilized place in under 5 minutes.
There is no question you are getting your exercise on this trip! The story of those stairs is fascinating! The kids were fun, too.
Thank you Noraly for going the extra mile to see the ladders. I will never forget seeing them. Fantastic and I feel so honored to see them at all. Them kids were fantastic, makes me wish I was there with them climbing those beautiful ladders barefoot! Of course it would have to be first thing in the morning when it's cooler. 😁
Noraly is the biggest reason I got back into motorcycling after 25 years.
Are you enjoying it?
@S Roberts I am, thanks. I bought a used 2012 Honda CBR250R, just a small bike to enjoy. I don't have much desire to tear around, this thing is fast enough to go highway speeds, and it's amazing on fuel.
@@ZackaryMac Brilliant, I'm thinking of doing the same myself - I actually do have reservations about the safety aspect these days though. We'll see!
@@sroberts605 I do too, but I'm out there.
Trust no one, see everything, dress for safety.
I'm 70 and took a MSF dirt bike class in April. Now my grandkids can say my grandma learned to ride a motorcycle when she was 70. It's all Noraly's fault. 😂. Thanks IB!
Terrific, Noraly!
Amazing to see the more lesser traveled parts of Guinea and all the awesome tracks and the Guinean people who use them and inhabit these little towns and villages.
Great riding - thank you for showing us these amazing areas and for your continued excellent videography and narrating skills!
Honda needs to send her a monthly stipend for her travels with Alaska. Amazing woman and amazing bike
Hi 👋🏽 Noraly what beautiful landscape how you explain history of it roped ladder people are extremely nice and also you and as always you be safe 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Noraly, I am a man in my seventies, world traveler and adventurer, sky diver, expert skier, hot air balloonist, parasailer, white water rafter, to name a few, and have the introvert advantage. Thank you for sharing your travels with me. Even I am impressed by the all round person you are!!!
She's my hero .John Wayne died. So.
What is the "introvert advantage" ?
@@TorJohan-kj5cr This is all covered by the pros in the book titled "The Introvert Advantage". God Bless!
@@kevinsworld5088 Thanks! God bless!
Good morning Noraly, thank you for allowing us to live these unique experiences through your trip through Africa and thus learn a little more about this beautiful continent, take care, have a good trip
What can you say about Noraly, How about, this channel and her skills and the way she interacts with the locals is fantastic, 3 or 4 seasons ago we thought it was amazing, but it just gets better and better with every episode. 😎🏍🏍🏍
My goodness, I have just read through maybe 200 comments! Such an impressive lady Noraly and her bike, Alaska. I was scared for you in the beginning of the video. Then I realised you speak enough languages to connect with the local people and they think you are great. I find it refreshing that they hold you and your bike with respect and don't thieve from you. That is truly uplifting.
And that ladder! Absolutely amazing. I vaguely remember something about it form my much younger years at school. My teacher was a man who wanted us to know everything and he showed us things from unusual parts of the world. But I have not heard of these ladders since. Epic to see them still in daily use 60yrs since I learned about them at school. And to hear they are 100s of years old is absolutely astonishing. I said to myself, those women walking with those long dresses on could not have come up those ladders. But apparently they did indeed come up those ladders only 30mins before! Just phenomenal.
I have watched 3 of your videos over the last few months and will endeavor to watch more if I have time. Great work and an amazing embassedor for all.
Loved your comment!!
I was bit scary for you in my country sierra Leone not to come across with the society men😂
The stairs, ladder are incredible. Great use of the environment. Thank you again for sharing your explorations with all of us.
Noraly, wherever you stop or maybe just slow down, you attract a curious crowd, especially kids. On trails the more remote and difficult the happier you seem. Good choice not to climb down the ancient ladder. Love your dirty face. 👍 ❤
Wow! Your tenacity never ceases to amaze me. The sites are beautiful. Thank you, Noraly, for bringing us along. And thanks to God, for keeping you safe. Amen. Love, from CVC USA
You are incredible in meeting people! Regardless of status, gender or what...
The agility of your young trail guides were impressive Noraly! I am thrilled that you were able to show us the ladders and tell us about their history after such a challenging trek to get there. I hope in the future you stop for at least two mangos and two bread and black beans with mayo sandwiches when taking on such tough physical days. 😉 Rest up as you tighten every bolt again on Alaska.
Noraly,
I’m enchanted by your strength and tenacity as you travel through parts unknown by many of your fans.
Thank you for continuing to entertain and educate those of us who may never be able to do so.
I have learned so much about the good people you meet in your travels. They are kind, inquisitive and sometimes in awe of you as am I.
May you continue to enjoy safe travels and adventures.
From a fellow biker and admirer.
Idk why, but this comment made me tear up. ❤❤
I just love the love of learning I guess! 😊
@@cailinanne……. Cailín Anne, I agree with you… some of the comments to Noraly are certainly from the heart!
African is a beautiful place with all the nature thank you for showing this amazing place
Well, first of all as for how you look, you are a Global motorcycle traveler/adventurer, a little dirt, dust, sweat, and exhausted looks are all part of the game, but even with all of that you still look great. The road roads have been incredibly rough and that had to take its toll on Alaska, and you but the scenery and the people especially those kids make it so worthwhile. Thank you for taking us along.
Taking me places I have never been. Thank you.
Those stairs were amazing! Another great day of adventure and exploration. Awesome job Noraly 👏
Hey Noraly, another great adventure. Time to get a drink, some food, a shower and stay away from the monkeys. Prayers Flying for safe travels
But as usual You reached Your Goal🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Take an good rest dear Noraly 😅😅😅😅May Gods Holy Blessings showers You minute by minute 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉👍👍🌞🌞🌞🌟🌟🌟☺️☺️🤗🤗
I admire your spirit. You are a true adventurer. I learned from your videos, how wonderful the people of Africa are. Please continue your quest. You give me hope and understanding how the rest of the world lives. I also am amazed how you speak so many languages. You are truly great person with fantastic spirt that soothes the soul. Thanks from Utah.
Noraly, it was good to see those kids playing around at Echelles de Lelouma, they all had smiles and looked like they were having fun. Thanks for capturing that moment.
Rough day but you and Alaska made it. You were possibly the first forign lady motorist around that area. Boys were so enthusiastic showing there skills on those ladders.
Looking forward to your next adventure. Bravo Madame.
I don't blame you for not trying those ladders, especially in motorcycle boots. Very interesting. You constantly show us things that most people never see.
you never cease to amaze, Noraly. i was sweating just watching you traverse with your pack of little friends! rest well, see you down the road.
Itchy Boots, it’s always a pleasure to watch your traveling adventures! You’re sharing information and locations that most of us would not have known about..... Have a Blessed journey and Safe travelings!!!
African kids are super cool. When I worked in the Central African Republic mining diamonds, I'd walk through town and only see a couple of kids. When the company flew my wife over to cover the Christmas period, we didn't have kids but most of the rest of the crew did so we volunteered to cover for them, she walked into town and the children came out of the woodwork. I was shocked...there were at least 100 kids in that town. They all came out to her because she might have had the wrong skin colour, but she had the curves in the right places. My first thought at that moment was, "OMG, we need to build a school." and we did. Hired a teacher that was sick and tired of living in the city and I gained a few more days out of purgatory.
Wow, here in India, in the western ghats we have many such paths. Some of them have been trade routes since centuries. Basically goods would come from other countries via ships and would get unloaded on the coast and from there traders would bring the goods inland.
Here in India, the central plain - also called Deccan plateau, is at 800m elevation and has western and eastern ranges on edges. The plateau is made of basalt rock and has fertile black soil.
And so is home to a bunch of cash crops like sugarcane, cotton, various lentils, millet etc. So a lot of that flowed to other countries via sea. And then the trade routes were very important.
Now-a-days these ghats make for spectacular twisties in any season and are favorite for all motorcycle riders.
What an experiance, thanks for taking us with you!
Never in a million years would I know of or get to see such wonders in the world without the help of our dear Noraly..Thank you..JUST amazing..
Simply beautiful and so wholesome video. Loved the interaction with the locals. Loved how they called each other to look at Alaska. They admired that mean machine of yours. Those kids live their best lives enjoying the best that nature has to offer. They are free to run around climbing mountains and trees. The best childhood ever. So care free. Your interaction with them was beautiful. At times kids do sense a good human being and they loved being with you and showing you their skills. In turn you showed your care for them, telling them to be careful and watching over them. Loved it.
What I love about your vids is your cool determination and the fantastic people you meet. Its life affirming that 99.999% of people are genuinely friendly.
This is what i love, meeting such wonderful people learning about their ways of life, it really brightens up my day! Thanks Noraly!
I am surprised that Honda has not stepped up and sponsored you, they couldn't get better advertisement for their little 300 capability.
You look even more beautiful covered in dirt IMO , you have taken me to places I didn't even know I wanted to go to thank you for showing us all how the remote places work with so little . Shows us all how good we have it.

I admire Noraly for many things, and one main thing is that she follows her Heart, and all the rest somehow falls into place. May she always be so true to herself and her worldly pursuits. ❤
What a day! Very challenging single track and a beautiful jungle ride! The geography and history of the plateau and plains is very interesting, with great aerial views. Thank you for sharing another day of your adventure! Ride safe Noraly!
Those ladders, centuries old with all those stories attached were awesome.I do thank you for educating us.Dont know how you are enduring all challenges and still have enough strength, interest and good humor to share the journey with us. Strength and Respect to you!
I agree with your comment. The conditions are becoming truly challenging but I believe Noraly thrives in these conditions!! Go Itchy Boots!!
I know I keep saying Noraly that you are amazing. The places you put yourself seem impossible to ride, but you finish each day shattered but smiling that beautiful smile. Love your channel!
