- In this part of crossing the Cameroon - Central African Republic border, I get myself into trouble. The rain made some stretches of jungle very, very slippery, and I crash hard. I can't believe that the start button of my motorcycle broke off in the crash!! Everything adds up, and I end up riding in the jungle in the dark still... I need to find a place to stay the night QUICK!

It really got to my heart when the chief said "you are safe here".
😅yes that nearly made me cry
Agreed
💯💯💯💯💯
"you are safe with us" , are the best words to hear for a woman in this situation !!🌿
That was my feeling too! Respect!!
"You are safe with us" that's exactly the sentence you need to hear in such a situation, what a nice bunch of people!
Implication being, you are not safe without us.
Think about it.
@@davidmende4438 what are you on about....
@@davidmende4438 Not necessarily.
And sharing whatever food they have with a stranger passing through ❤❤
Negative Norman, all doom and gloom, struggles to see positivity in life, always searching for ways to discredit goodness.
That guy with the key a talented mechanic. He knew the mechanism just by the way it came apart. Right guy at the right moment Itchy.
I suspect the guy probably owns a motorbike. As soon as he started fiddling with the switch I knew he was going to find a fix.
@@Darubini2 In Africa, most of the youth know their way around motorbikes, it is their primary way of transport.
That’s guy was an angel at the right time
I was born and raised in Africa. I left Africa when I was 25. I’m now 47. I’ve lived and travelled around the world in 13 countries for the last 22 years. Europe, North America, and Asia. Everywhere I go, and I really mean everywhere, Everybody talks about how backward Africa is, and how stupid the people are. They talk about Africa been this hell hole. They make so much fun of Africa. Many people don’t know I’m African because I’m not black, but it hurts me so much to my core that the people of the world most of them anyway, don’t know the true hearts of African people and how 99% of them are so kind, helpful and pleasant. Watching this video makes me proud but at the same time hurt.❤
Most people dont want to know anything other than what they have been told to think :(
Itchy boots has inspired me to learn how to ride a motorbike and Africa has always called loudly to my soul so I plan to make it there and meet all of the incredible people there who have hearts open instead of too much of the western world has closed their hearts and forgotten they have a soul and only want to know what they can get from other people.
I find that sad to hear. I’m British, have travelled to every continent (except Antarctica) and live in Asia. I have never felt anything close to the feeling I got in Africa anywhere else. It was a sense of being where I was supposed to be. From the animals to the people to the red earth, I loved my time there and have told my 7 year old daughter all about it and we plan to visit together one day. The hard part is choosing where as there are so many countries I wish to see. Be rightly proud.
I can only said it is well
I'm also African and not black, but what you are saying is so true man. Quite sad
Unfortunately many people live their lives with closed minds and cold hearts.
That on the spot mechanic is a great innovative guy. He understood the mechanics in a jiffy.
Indeed
It is great that he was there and found a simple solution!
he's a man. wired to solve REAL problems.😀😀😀😀😀
It's a button lol, not that hard to figure out. What's not good is that she wasn't ready to use this fix. If the bike stalled and she needed to get out quick, that's it...
@@WiseWikwisest answer on this post! Lots of ignorance in her posts by people who really lack real world experience.
those dudes who helped you were great, nice to see good souls on your show, gives me hope for humanity.
The man who fixed the starter button is a genius.Lucky to find such helpful people at the time of fall down.
We all have to be like that as Africans we don't throw anything away and we find ways to fix. I got some washer and dryer my neighbor put to the cab 10 years ago I took them in repaired the dryer by replacing a sensor and some belts rebalanced the washer. They are still running today and he has bought 2 sets since he trashed his. I alway make fun of him when he passes by
True
I got emotional when the guy said you are safe with us, and from the little they have they gave you dinner and a bed to sleep. Very kind people, God bless them.
"You are safe with us." What welcoming words to hear. ❤ I hope your hand is okay after that fall.
Words of Hope.
Definitely, that was welcoming words to Noraly’s ears!
That's really deep ❤
We're born kind
Yeah and those words came from the Chef is the village himself beautiful
I actually got choked up when the chief says, “You are safe with us”. Noraly obviously tired, politely and hopefully asking if staying there is possible, must have felt the same…. Forging on is the only choice and Noraly does so with aplomb. Admiration on every level.
I did too! Such wonderful people!
"Bon appétit !?" pour le matin prochain ? Je l'espère.... ;-) 🤔
We all did ❤
YOU ARE SAFE WITH US ....
The soldiers using Alaska for photo props (totally oblivious that they were being documented for posterity) and acting all cool like kids caught misbehaving will remain the funniest part of this episode to me. lol
and the best part is that none of them even looked in her bags, they just wanted a photo
Why misbehaving? They asked and she told them to go ahead. Nothing wrong with that?
😅😅😅😅😅
I was in awe of the way that guy “fixed” your starter switch (found a work-a-round)….how could he have such knowledge? And he “came along” just when he was needed. Astounding!!
We Africans are a knowledgeable people, I leave in the united Arab Emirates where most companies will prefer hiring Africans because of our hardworking spirit and resilience just that the pay are so low
Because of the challenges of getting the proper tools to make things work we tend to be very innovative and create solutions to fix things.
Well motorbikes are the main way these people get around when they need to go somewhere outside of the village. So most of the guys there are going to be pretty familiar with how motorbikes work and how to fix the various issues that can occur, especially since they often lack the proper tools and parts for the repairs.
@@SteveSmith88thanks for acknowledging that you're kind
Because the plastic button is just a mechanism to push down on the tiny button inside. Noraly with her training around big geology rigs would have figured it out eventually too.
The people in Africa make me so proud of them, they're so helpful and kind.
Apparently kindness wont pave your roads.
@seananon4893 we've adapted that way pliz and we like it this way
@@esphoneochengo so you folks prefer to not have infrastructure/economic development and just stay as primals?
@@kevinvjanc you know nothing about them so don't judge
In the rural areas that Noraly travels, she always finds herself in a situation where good people are close by to help her!
So cute the guys taking photos on the bike. They were so happy…
They all set goals for themselves to get one..... they'll be staring at that picture for weeks
Mopanie wurms om te eet.
Boredom in the military is a real thing... can you imagine when a spaceship rides into town like that.
😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰
After watching this video and the beautiful demonstration of kindness and caring I was reminded of how media outlets of all kinds peddles fear and mistrust of our fellows on earth. When I heard "You are safe with us" I could not help but think of the love these people have toward strangers.
Of course Noraly also avoids known areas where the people might not be so friendly to strangers. If everywhere was safe there would be no need for the chief to say "you are safe with us".
@@Dave-sw2dmthat is a silly way ot thinking. She is safe because some part of the country is having rebels that are fighting the central African Republic government.
@@jallojallow9664 , reread what I wrote. We are saying the same thing except I added that she is knowingly avoiding conflict areas.

This is my Africa. Always a helping hand when something happens. A bed to sleep and meals to share. Wonderful people of an amazing continent. No wonder human life was born here. Humanity in it's purest shape.
God bless Africa in Jesus name amen
Not sure how factual thay statement is, but if I t makes you feel better than go with it. Forget about Gobekli Tepe, underwater ruins found numerous places in the world etc.
@@georgebricker1010 Sorry having missed something in the chronology of human history . But as you are busy with that I focus more on the human aspect of Noraly's travel encounters. Good luck.
nah, all life came from Hawaiians. Look it up in the kumulipo. (except the Chinese, they had their own thing going on).
@georgebricker1010 his opinion,u want to tell him that he doesn't know what he knows anymore?
The kindness of African people amazes me every time. I just wish they had roads.
We do have roads. She just likes adventure. If she goes on asphalt it won't be that interesting to you. I'm sure you are eager to watch her next video.
She rides mostly in remote areas, not in the cities, so you won't see much tarred roads . Also, most people are not aware that asphalt isnt so great for tropical regions. It's a major cause of floods. The ground needs to be organic to soak up all the rain we get. Many people don't understand how much rain we get in West-Central Africa. You only have to come here to experience it for yourself.
Tell africans about their ORPHANAGES are very low standards.
Snap nog steets niet waarom je deze videos maakt en waarom je deze reis maakt
Some people just like adventure. Most of us would never see this part of Africa with out Noraly. She does a great service for us. Sadly there is nothing she can do about the pathetic infrastructure we see here, or the corrupt top officials that keep their people down.@@Just-Michael-NL
I'm consistently amazed by the kindness of African people. I only wish there were better road infrastructures.
corruption
I don’t trust people who are overly kind
@@mementomori5374 You get trust issues
@@mementomori5374In Africa, most will be genuine, a few will want to swindle you.
A lot could be better, mainly leadership.
"You are safe with us". was spoken with such kindness and truth. A fundamental goodness that shines out. A superb chance meeting at the close of day.
This just might be my new favorite episode. The beautiful men helping her when the starter button came off they came running to her rescue. I liked seeing the younger boys standing behind them learning....it brought tears to my eyes.
yes that is really cool !
I absolutely agree with you! It was such a touching moment, opening my heart!
Especially as they were paid ...
@@mikanakayama-ss5co Noraly always pays if they will let her. She just doesn’t always show it.
Noraly was very fortunate to have help from such kind people! The younger boys were very interested in what they were doing.
To all Cameroonian soldiers and immigration officers, thank you for being kind and respectful. Though your working conditions looks challenging but you keep the good spirit. Be blessed
Yes........ My prejudices are revealed to be nonsense.....These people represent their countries VERY WELL.
That's what I call a bush mechanic! Well done Sir!
One thing I’ve realised with West Africa is that , its green, unlike Our South where we only get a bit of green during summer! Beautiful video once again Noraly
Thanks to those kind men for representing us (Africans) so well! I wish they could have better infrastructure!
Each time I think, "her trip can't get any better than this" Noraly proves me wrong.
A unique blend of courage, craziness, adventure, and motivation, along with a nice video presentation
As a life long motorcyclist now 76 and still riding this lady is off the map when it comes to travel, adventure and dignity, simply amazing!
Well done that you're still riding ! Safe travels ❤
Ride safe my friend! I’ve been riding over 55 years now and will be 70 this spring. I don’t plan to quit anytime soon!
Wish you many more riding years in good health. from a rider of 27years aged 49
She is off the road alright- literally!
I meant off the map,not rd,but that is true too!
'No problem, you are safe with us' isn't that what every weary traveler wants to hear in such a circumstance, good on those guys for helping.
Those reds soils are notoriously bad for motoring of any kind, I've gotten stuck in them a couple of times back in the day in the part of Africa where I was raised. It is like driving/riding on banana peels.
i absolutely love the kindness of the African brothers and sisters...what a lovely warm bunch....so hospitable and respectful
But of course we're kindness personified
My government tells me to "Avoid all Travel" to Central African Republic and its border regions. While there are undoubtedly potential serious risks to travel in that region, that warning certainly does not tell the whole story. Once again Itchy Boots has shown us how good most people are---from the delighted Cameroon military checkpoint soldiers, to the amazing roadside (road top?) mechanic to the welcoming hosts at the mosque. Thanks for showing us this Noraly, and I hope the caterpillars were delicious!
You're probably more likely to get robbed or hurt in your own country.
Yeah, NL isn't what it used to be
OmG there are those rubbery worms again...My friend says he would prefer the deep fried grasshoppers 🦗 🦗 He was in Camaroon many years in the 80's. He deep fried porcupine in Cameraroon then. He said it was gamey but like pork.
Comparto plenamente lo que dices!! Gente muy buena en todo África! También allí en República Centroafricana!!!❤ "Con nosotros estás a salvo "😢❤❤❤
Desde Argentina sigo a Noraly, cuando partió de nuestra Patagonia antes de la Pandemia. Es un ser de luz!!❤🤗🙋🏻♂️
If one were to believe social media, we'd conclude that the only "good people" look a certain way, or speak a certain language. Thanks Noraly for showing that the true human spirit transcends race and location. Wishing you a safe journey from here in Nigeria.
It's amazing that wherever you stop, people magically appear to help. What a wonderful place.
That’s her energy! I think she knows how the Universe will always come through. We should all keep her attitude and the same applies to us all!
I got tensed when she fell, and then later on when it got dark.
But the thing is, that "You are safe with us" and that laughter of yours at the "you can sit" thing was such a relief. God bless you.
Noraly, if you only knew the amount of respect and admiration I have for you... What you do is truly incredible, breaking all barriers...
I am now addicted to watching you! You have a very positive spirit, humble person. And everywhere you go, people can feel your vibe. Keep it up. You are best ambassador for travel updates. Moreso for Africa. Go Itchy boots. Go Africa a continent full of love, kindness and humanity❤
The kindness, friendliness, politeness, ingenuity, and strength of spirit shown repeatedly by the local people whom Noraly encounters completely dispels the terrible old stereotype of the 'Dark Heart of Africa'! Love and Respect from South Africa.
🇿🇦
😊😊
That is why Africa got colonised we are weak at heart and just give out kindness to our enemies
There was never any stereotype of " dark heart of Africa".
It was called the " Dark Continent" because it was unexplored by Europeans.
Simple.
Africans have been the most accommodating to foreigners of any other group of people worldwide.
Reason why they lost so much of their land and culture to colonizers.
That old myth comes from Westerners.
An African on tour of Europe would receive same treatment.
" no problem you are safe with us", wonderful words to hear. The kindest people there including the men who ran to you when you dropped the bike.
Haven’t missed an episode this year. Sunday and Wednesday have become our favorite days of the week. We sure do feel for ya at times.
To see the kindness, concern, and help of a people with a total stranger traveling alone, I can only think we all could learn by this experience .
Noraly thank you for showing the incredible diversity in this world. Showing your viewers that you shouldn’t fear or hate people simply because they don’t share your same skin color. We sit in our own silos and fear what we know nothing about.
I flunked mind reading in College but I will say as she has become somewhat “famous” on CZcams and internationally I doubt many would attempt to mess with her…
@@drgonzo4714your imagination is insane.
Get some professional help. Seriously
You should fear your government, not these people. These people are just living in their villages, minding their own business. They are more afraid of you than you are of them. They are not the ones invading your country with their army and doing what not.
Noraly you have more Mud than you need,bring back some for your compatriots Farmers???
Very well said my friend 👏
This is hands down better than anything that might be on TV. What an adventure! Everyone was so friendly and kind hearted. Those cool guys wanting pictures, the resourceful man who figured out how to get the bike started and the hospitable people in the village. Everyday hereos, every one of them! Can't wait to find out if the stew was tasty too! An interesting combo!
The dish might be Mopane Worms (Emperor Moth Catepillar). Crunchy and mushroomy? Can't wait to see what Itchyboots thinks!
@@spiritusinfinitus🤮... Even the insects that are Leviticus creator made to eat.. Locust! Don't think I could woah!
After travelling with my husband in India on the back of a 1982 Royal Enfield I cannot tell you Noraly how much I love and look forwards to your CZcams videos. I'm amazed at how you engage with people on your travels . I admire your intelligence , people skills, your strength and feeling like I'm travelling with you . Poor you and poor Alaska have suffered a little bit lately ! But you can't keep a good woman or a good bike down for long ! Safe travels , and there are so many of us travelling with you in spirit ❤
I’m truly in awe and respect of Noraly. While the adventures that she goes on are some of my dream ones, when I put myself in her shoes, I can think of multiple situations in each episode where I would just want to give up and be bailed out. It takes immense courage and dedication to do what she does.
Whereever you go, the africans are so helpful, its quite amazing.
How this guys figured out what to do when Alaska's start button got broken is fascinating. The love that these villagers share, with the little that they have is just amazing and for Noraly, alway graceful and humble...thank you for another wonderful episode.
And he was so excited when he was given a tip. May be he thought he was just helping. Pristine world not contaminated with capitalism. I did not see anyone begging. common in more developed parts of Africa
Commonly called an "African fix" and when one has next to nothing to work with one quickly learns to make do.
It's called common sense
@@-W8WHAT so why can't noraly do it? Pls give credit.
They are rural bikers on that road and have never fallen like noraly did so many times. These are real talents in africa
@@deusdedittusubira315 it is capitalism that brought poverty to Africa. Before the advent of colonialism no one was poor in africa. They all had shelter, food and clothing. You could see in rural Africa largely un affected by capitalism no one begged noraly for arms. Rather they fed and housed her completely free of charge.
That bloke was incredible! Noraly would have been stuck without him. He knew exactly what to do in an instant. So glad she showed her thanks.
You CANNOT survive in that kind of environment without your sense of ingenuity being highly developed, else, you mostly cannot get anything done because most things are not ideal.
i mean its basic sense, to push the switch, even with a stick to see if start, good thing it was a spring loaded rod switch
Noraly, i cannot believe you will be visiting the village , Nola the Pearl, where i lived for two years! 'Du courage' to the good people of Nola and Central African Republic in general! The goodwill of these people is tempered by the hardship that they must endure on a daily basis. Everyday is a struggle to survive and yet they show such kindness to a complete stranger. That is generosity in its truest form .
Poor Alaska, she has suffered so much, its a miracle she has come so far on these roads, take care and be safe, there is news of unusually heavy rainfall in that part of the world, with Widespread flooding in Republic of Congo , as always Noraly will overcome all the difficulties, You are an inspiration for all of us.
And I have to say that she's the strongest woman in the world to do what she does and never fear anything God bless her heart ❤️
Alaska is a very tough motorcycle to endure the unknown conditions and just keep on going! Noraly takes excellent care of Alaska!
hello, what is the model of the motorcycle?
@@WillysPerformanceCycleCtrhello, what is the model of the motorcycle?

Thank you Norali for taking us to unimaginable places❤️❤️🥰
“You are safe with us”! Ahh, did anyone else burst out crying?! The beauty of human beings and the magic of travel - thank you for bringing it all to us, Noraly. 💚
Thanks for their hospitality, generosity of African people ❤️
I love you Africa ...I love you Africa .... See the way they are coming and helping ... One day I will come to Africa .
I must say, so far these videos are one hell of a win for Africa and its people who come across as so kind and helpful to a stranger. Safe travels - your videos are incredibly inspiring.
Your passion for travelling, exploring the world and sharing your experiences is unprecedented.
Really amazing! 👏 👏
Noraly, you are a true adventurer. You have all my respect! Thank you for showing us the world and just how kind people can be to strangers. ❤😊
There is a reason Noraly avoids big cities. Village people from everywhere are the same - good hardworking people, helpful, polite and welcoming. Africa is no different... Wish I could visit one day...
You nailed it!
I used to live in Turkey and the village folks wee extremely friendly
Same in Brazil.
Noraly is amazing. When she was clearing out of Cameroon, those young soldiers were very respectful because Noraly was respectful to them. They asked if they could photograph her bike and were very careful with her property. Noraly's respect for everyone and her cheerfulness makes her a special ambassador. In some parts of the world, one would not dare to even get off that bike, let alone let young people sit on it. While all of Noraly's videos are great, this one was really special.
Exactly how I felt and you worded it so well .
Thank you
So well said!
“You are safe with us” was like music in your ears, wonderful people out there.
I have been to Africa on two occasions Mozambique, South Africa and other countries and the continent and its people have amazed me the most of everywhere I went so far. It’s beautiful and very impressive. So happy Noraly is able to show the whole world the beauty of Africa and the kindness of its people!
The guys posing on your bike for photos, not realizing they were being filmed doing it.
And when you had to stop for the night - "No problem. You are safe with us" - beautiful! 😍
Good thing that they did ask for permission to get photos.....
@@preciousbanda5364 Yup, I think they asked like 2 or 3 times. Covering their 4ss in case the dude in the office hears about it!
I like how simple you are. You don't overly comment on various reactions you receive; instead, you respond with simplicity and an open heart. And you receive the same in return. Safe travels always.❤
It's the Dutch way
that's cordiality.
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" is understated in how Noraly treats others. And how she is treated BY others! (Forgive the biblical reference, but she sure puts the "Christians I know to shame!)
@@jaykb6587 so true, agree with this! Nothing to forgive, That's what Jesus left us as the 'golden rule'.
@@jaykb6587 just had to take the opportunity to bash Christians, which says more about you than it does Christianity. People are not perfect no matter how they worship
Oh poor Alaska, you are taking such a bad beating and yet you are still going strong. Let's Go Alaska and Itchy Boots! Prayers Flying for safe travels!
Ahhhh! Beautiful people of Africa ❤ It warms my heart every time she has an encounter with the locals 🙏❤️ such amazing people!! ❤️
Wow. Don't think I've seen CAR documented raw like this by a traveller/civilian. And this situation just elevates it to the next level. Was glued start to finish, massive respect to you.
Noraly has transformed me into an addict. I think it is that front camera perspective that makes me feel I am the one riding. Very exiting! I can barely sleep whilst waiting for the next episode.
African nations are civilized and hospitable nations Salute from Iran to my African brothers and sisters in all over Africa ❤
Salute brother keep safe over there in Tehran
those that have the least are the most generous and the first to offer aid and comfort. thank you for reminding us that there is still much good in this world ... a grateful Canadian
Your guardian angel continues to follow you when villagers show up to help you pick up Alaska when you fall. Glad the villager was able to help you start up Alaska so you could continue to go on. Amazing that you were able to find accommodations in the dark from friendly villagers. You are truly blessed! Be careful, be safe and best of luck getting to the next town & hopefully get the starter button repaired and you have no more falls on those nasty wet roads.
the kindness and helpfulness these complete strangers are showing you is so wonderful to see
It feels good to see fellow Africans helping out a stranger. If only we showed a bit of kindness to everyone, the world would be a better place. Keep up the good work Noraly, can't wait to see you explore my country Kenya.
She knows Kenya alright. She's been in Kenya before...as a backpacker. Long before she started her CZcams channel.
When they are not BLACK
@@HephzibahYahudah-ow2thWut? Are you implying they are more willing to help foreigners than locals?
@@NameName-ll2yxDon't mind these weirdos. Africans are warm and friendly to all. Skin color irrelevant
I lived in Nigeria for 9 yrs (from age 2 to 11), and Africans were always so friendly, polite, nice, and wonderful people.
Every difficulty is a golden content generator. Bravo Itchy. Yet again you dispel the false fears that the world is dangerous and people in exotic places need to be feared. We are all one.
How wonderful that so many people are so kind and welcoming all along these journeys. I'm heartened at it all, in all the series. I get it about the scenery too - the difference between what our eyes see and what the camera records. I imagine that what you actually see is ten times more spectacular than what we get to see (which is spectacular too, of course). But as an occasional solo tourer, I get a bit sad when I exclaim to myself in my helmet at a wondrous scene that can't be shared in the moment. My last trip was taken with my partner, and it struck me then how awesome it was to say to him, 'Oh wow! Look at that!!!', and get a reply because he was seeing it as gloriously as I was. So when you say 'Look at that', or 'Oh wow!' I know it's a lot better from your eyes than your camera. I rarely comment, but I have to say that your courage, endurance and fantastic attitude are things to be truly admired. Congratulations and all the very best for the remainder of the adventure :)
This is the right person who deserves to tell the African story. She has seen it with her own heart and eyes.
Well said
This was a 19 minute video and it just flew bye !! Noraly is an excellent story teller !!! Wow !! I will not be surprised that her subscriber base will skyrocket to 20 million !!! She is an inspiration to millions of both men and especially women worldwide !! It shows what one can achieve if you constantly dedicate to something you love !! Congratulations !!
Another beautiful video from you itchy boots, thanks! It is amazing how these locals are always willing to help. The guys from like 9:40 were just helping another stranger, even trying to help fix your start button. Just beautiful people. Your rides through these countries are showing how Africans are. KInd, hospitable, friendly, ever willing and open to help.
The hospitality of these people who have so little speaks volumes to me! Also the people who are right there to help in your times of need...what a blessing they are to you and to the watching world! ❤️ Thanks for your wonderful videos!
They immediately sought the counsel of the village elder ...
... you are safe to stay here. 🙂👍👍♥
How smart that guy was, how he fixed her starter button amazing skill and kindness. Africa makes me proud. Beautiful human exchanges is why I watch this channel. You go girl 👍🏾🙏🏾
Well said
To be fair he didn’t fix anything, he showed her how to start it without the button in place.
It’s still broken.
So true ❤
@@mj_aussie_coaster_travels8310 he put it back together so she could start it up again, getting her to her out of that forest. I don't understand your point. your comment has a negative energy.. be positive it feels better 😁
@@lf1496 I confirm what the other commenter said that the fellow did not fix the switch. However, he did something at least as valuable in the circumstances -- he took a look at this bike that was a type he surely never saw before, and after briefly attempting to reinstall the broken-off switch button, he assessed that it was not easily going to go back into place. But he understood the principle of the thing and figured out that all that was needed was a pointy object to poke the internal switch mechanism, and that would get Noraly going again. So a good solution given the conditions, and prospects for a better fix when Noraly gets to a town.
Africans are extremely kind and helpful to you itchy! Blessed!
We are praying for you Noraly that God keeps you safe wherever you travel.
Poor Alaska survives crash after crash and keeps on going, even if she is starting to fall apart.. refuses to quit! And it's so heartwarming to see communities coming together to support travelers in need!
Norali am cameroonian but youve made me see and know my country like never before. Thanks.
Isn't she wonderful and her charisma and courage God bless her heart ❤️
Those guys taking turns on your bike to take pictures, just like kids would, put a smile on my face. So cool 😅
Am speechless, the simplicity, genuineness, the greatness of humanity without the interpreters (cooked politicians). Beautiful..
The assurance "you are safe with us" is so satisfying.
I hate seeing Noraly fall, but I love seeing the stranger locals immediately running to pick her up. Gives me so much more optimism for the world. Save travels
The less people have, the more helpful & community minded they are. What wonderful people you have encountered ☺
Face the bike and hold the front tire between your knees as you turn the handle bars where you want them. Done it many many times riding motocross. Or even wedge the front tire between something solid (two trees close together) and then turn the bars. Love your channel! You are awesome!!
Another breathtaking episode - the challenges, the kindness of humanity and your commitment to your objectives are stunning.
Who else wanted to see more? 😊❤
Oh me. This is really like a film, at least to me watching it on my phone 🫣💜
Quite nail- biting episodes now with the difficult roads, bike issues, lack of resources. The people are so helpful and welcoming, it's lovely to see. Love to see all of Africa so far.
That was very kind of the villagers to take you in for the night & feed you. The people are very kind & helpful. 👍
The people are so helpful. Beautiful people with next to nothing but rich with heart.
You have shown us we, are safer in most African countries then we are in most cities in the United States!
Imagine a woman riding after dark into some areas of Chicago, Portland, DC, LA, NY, Philly etc in USA without knowing anyone or having a place to stay. No thanks I'll take my chances in Cameroon or CAR! Peace! But in USA, just like we see in these other countries Noraly travels, once one gets out of the cities into the country and or remote areas , people will give you the shirt off their back if you need it.
@@jasonzerbini2375You need to stop watching FAUX news.
😂😂😂. Only places are the hood in NY and other cities. All the places that are enabled.
The guys at the border were so excited to see you and Alaska! The day of riding was definitely a challenge. It was so nice of the guys to help you pick up Alaska and find a quick fix for the starter button! And, then you found a safe place to stay after dark! Can’t wait for the next episode!!! Ride safe Noraly!
The generosity of people is out of the charts. Humanity at its finest. Thank you all Africans who helped Noraly throughout her journey. It was a honor to meet you all, kind, resourceful, beautiful, and understanding people. Besides, your continent is incredibly extraordinary. All the very best to you all and your families. I hope you all always find reciprocity in regard to your kindness. Yes, it was beautiful the chief saying that Noraly was safe there. Touching, very touching! One of those moments in life when someone's kindness gives that peace of mind that becomes an unforgettable gratitude.
The rider ! The bike ! The roads ! The people ! Superb 🌞🌞🌞🌞🥰🥰🥰
"You are safe with us" ❤️❤️❤️ Your travels and encounters never cease to restore hope in the heart of this soured man.
Yes!! Once again, you manage to capture the unlimited kindness of people and present it to the world. I really think what you are doing is a great service for the reputation of less travelled countries! Thanks!
I am blown away by the kindness of the African People I see again and again in your videos!
We're kindness personified
This is the best episode of them all. 🍀
In many videos, it appears there are no people close by, but if you get into a predicament, they materialize very quickly.
But I've seen her go into some desert areas of Africa and there's nobody for miles and if she was to fall down and hurt herself she would be in a little pickle you know
I think if she had a three-wheeler with the two wheels in the back with big old nobbies she would never fall down or get hurt she just need to keep her speed down
@@kirkslayden834 I think the issue is to try and find a place before it gets dark. That apart of the world it gets dark the same hour about 18:00 hours.
Noraly is adventure and excitement 😮. My respect to you, Noraly, your adventures and hard work is big as the continent of Africa, Europe, America,Asia etc.🙏👍🤗
Bringing the world closer to our doorstep.

The Lord is your strength 🙏
Good job itchy boots. A lot of people are watching your journeys. 😊
