Dangerous border crossing NIGERIA 🇳🇬vs CAMEROON 🇨🇲 [S7-E66]
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 гру 2024
- In this episode, I am trying to cross the only landborder between Nigeria and Cameroon that is currently open for foreigners to cross, due to safety concerns in the North as well as South. But before I get to the border, I have still some distance to cover on the Nigeria side, and these mountains are hard to get across...

I am retired, 65, and have had a heart attack and cancer in the last year. I have 2 small dogs and live in a small trailer. That is my world. Thank you for taking me away in your videos. You and your channel are priceless to me.
Seasons greetings to you & your little dogs, I'm 70 & live alone in a small shack that's bit remote along with my little dog Chloe in an old near ghost town near Death Valley in the California desert, Its sometimes tough at our age to deal with serious disabilities and medical issues living alone, At times i find myself immobile and somewhat useless.Thankfully we have the internet and wonderful people like Noraly along with all the fantastic places around the world and wonderfully happy people she meets to keep our old spirits up and bring smiles to our faces.The best to you & your little dogs in the new year
I am 50, living in cold and dark northern Canada. I hope you make a full recovery 😊.
God bless
May God keep you ,
It's comments like this that are really precious to content creators, being able to share experiences like this with so many people make the effort worthwhile. All the best, Sean and Emily
I vote Noraly "UA-camr of the year," for 2023. Consistently delivering the highest quality travel/adventure and educational videos like no one else on the net..She is a true international travel phenom.
I totally agree, she gets my vote 100%
Mine as well :-)
Par excellence Noraly.
I totally agree. She gets my vote every time.❤❤❤❤
She should easily get UA-camr of the year. And motorcycle adventurist of the year. I don’t read many MC mags but she should be in everyone of them. I see a book in her future as well.
As a Nigerian, born in Nigeria and living in Nigeria all through my life I never knew how beautiful this land called Nigeria is... Nigerians need to start moving around Nigeria... Thank you my sweetheart Foreigner for showing me the part of my country I never knew existed
That is quite strange to hear that the Nigerians are not aware that they have highlands like this. Nigerians should travel within Nigeria more. Maybe it is also because the roads are not paved and that's why not many people go to those places. It is indeed difficult to travel in those areas especially by car.
Those highlands are located in Taraba state. I was priveleged to experience part of it (Gembu Hills). I can assure you that it is the most beautiful scenery you'd see.
There's this wildlife park - Gashaka-Gumti spans thousands of miles, stretching to the borders of Cameroun and bounding other states. We made it late so we couldn't enjoy the complete tour.
Boy! it was amazing.
Do Nigerians have fully loaded bikes? Tutu Keke can’t make this journey o!
You should check out David Nkwa and also BigWillz (both UA-camrs) they have been to these places and other rarely visited locations around Nigeria.
@@juliusgodswill6577We also have highlands in cross rivers state too.
I actually sat in front of a map monitoring her adventures across Africa. What a great woman!
I cried for a bit while watching this. Didn’t know my country is this beautiful. Insecurity is our worst nightmare. Learning about other places just makes me wonder why we think we are different
Yes indeed Hundred percent agree Africa is the most beautiful continent insecurity is the big problems my greeting to all Nigerian from Eritrea
This is Taraba, one of the most beautiful states in Nigeria.
“I am convinced that the jealous, the angry, the bitter and the egotistical are the first to race to the top of mountains. A confident person enjoys the journey, the people they meet along the way and sees life not as a competition. They reach the summit last because they know God isn’t at the top waiting for them. He is down below helping his followers to understand that the view is glorious where ever you stand.”
― Shannon Alder.
@@ojooyebamiji875 thanks for solving the puzzle for me. I initially thought she was traveling through cross river state until I saw the northern attire. I was wondering if it was Adamawa State but then, the distance she covered so far didn’t fit into Adamawa state. I’m guessing she is traveling via Nasarawa Benue axis and then into Taraba State. Thank you very much.
i swear i didn't know too, that Nigeria is this gifted amd fine
She deserves a Guinness world record! The way she brings the raw nature of the every place she passes through is quite something. Not even the documentaries with huge financial backing beats her style! let's see how Cameroon looks like let's go Noraly.
agreed
that wouldnt be what a Guiness record is for. They're for doing something longer or better and in a certain period of time. She needs an Emmy award
If have a time try to watch Cherry Vlogs… he’s doing world ride right now he’s now at Central America
YES!!! 🎉🎉
Absolutly she is great🌹🌹🌹
Hi, as a Nigerian just wanted to say from the bottom of my heart - Thank you, thank you very much for doing this. Travel safe, travel far and may you always find favor and kind hearts on your travels. Thank you
Beautifully said!
What a great POV of Nigeria
Let's appreciate for a moment how fit, courageous and open-minded this lady is.
I say this every episode. My husband introduced me to this channel, and I have not left my house all weekend watching the season 7 playlist.
Open minded and kind, but totally irresponsible in my view. She is VERY LUCKY . The rule is : Never do such trips alone . Even here in Cambodia. An animal runs into the bike in the middle of nowhere, your leg is broken and .....no thanks. Alway 2 riders+!!!
@@zensamui2409I think she has an inreach for any emergencies. But yeah you’re right about the risk.
"You are nuts. You are no man" - that statement was so funny and it is exactly why I love watching your videos so much. You show the world that fearless women can do everything that men do. You are a role model for so many young women out there 🙌
I am a Nigerian filmmaker and I didn't even know We had such amazing breath-taking landscape that looked like Mordor without the fire and smoke. Wow. Thank You ma'am.
Lol... no be only Mordor, too much Lord of the Rings de worry you. But honestly, it was beautiful and alittle embarrassing for a foreigner to bring this to our knowledge, but its okay, not our fault.
@@Vistacraft82 🤣 I dey tell yu bro!
@@Vistacraft82As Nigerian am not Omniscient you do realize that this country is ~1000000km^2, like we have time and money to explore every place in Nigeria
This last 2 episodes of Nigeria is truly amazing. The landscape was amazing but the warmth of the people there just brightens up the world. That moment you stopped the guy to give him a cookie was so delightful to watch. Loved these last 2 episodes and personally one of the best ones in your African journey. A nice tribute to your 2million followers who just adore you Noraly. Be lovely and be safe. All the best !
Scenes like you mentioned, while just a several second time interval in the video have a massive impact. Those cookies kept giving. Seller "keep the change" and then she shares cookies with a random passerby. No wonder so many struggle to find words in the English language that do Noraly justice. She shines a bright light wherever she goes and serves as a role model for all humans. I've noticed she has been continuously constant regardless of what happens. The same yesterday, today and tomorrow. Peace!
Noraly is definitely the Ambassador of Adventure Travel! She has introduced us to kind people in every place she travels. Her videography is fantastic. The aerial scenes and background music are amazing. And, the educational content she shares is well worth watching alone.
The warmth of the people!
This is Africa!!! The people are wonderful ❤♥💖💕
Thank you for showing the world how Africa really is! Warm, kind and generous ❤
If only we were warm and kind towards one another
I would like to see reactions to black riders from our community
All 2 million of us are with you on this journey. Thanks for making the world a smaller place! ❤❤
You know, I never look at the numbers of subs, so this kind of surprised me. Wow!
@@edsyphan3425 Me too! Good heavens above! We all want to explore...
Noraly, you have become the accidental global ambassador reminding us that people (those without guns and a craving for power) are decent and kind. Given how the number of subscribers and views is growing exponentially, your generous sharing of your travels is much needed in the world. A heartfelt thank you from a grateful Canadian
Ms. Noraly actually conquered the world with her motorcycle, her courage, her kindness, her wit, her sheer determination, her belief that the world in reality is actually a beautiful place if we only try to explore!
It's incredible how friendly the people are in this region, the children who come out of the fields waving, everyone who smiles when they see a foreigner, which makes them happy. These people need love after what they have experienced in recent years. Noraly sows this joy.
Lol “need” love may not be the idea. We are happy giving love she is happy giving love, no one is on the “needy” end here
@@uel422my mind exactly.
I'm glad that you gave a full episode to show how good Nigeria is before you left. It left us with a positive impression of the country and the wonderful friendly people who live there.
Thanks
It’s the world governments that make us all scared to go anywhere
I see Nigeria as very danger, dreadfull dirty poor country, barely any food, no roads , mess and dirt, broken shucks, no fit for people what suppose to be a place to live in. Nothing but misery, and rode blocks everywhere. Shame...
@@annateresa9814 go cry elsewhere 😂
@@isra3638 I don't have to cry. I live in fine country. You can eat bugs and rats, as you like and bow to your dogs of war. That is " freedom". Now beg Putin for " help".
I love my Country, Nigeria!
We are beautiful people with lots of love, cheers and happiness
🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
And don’t forget Nigerian princess and scammers
The people in this video are so hospitable and kind.
@@veryrelitrans3025 just as every other country has bad people. It doesn't mean everyone in that country is bad. Generally Nigeria has lots of good people as every other country.
Indeed and I am glad that this episode could show some of it. It is a pity that the security situation didn't allow Noraly to visit as she usually does.
I have never been to Nigeria, only to Niger and Cameroon and both have awesome people and awesome landscapes. Greetings to you all from Europe.
Thriftless people ...
A big round of applause to Alaska for getting you through a seemingly relentless stream of tough conditions. What a great bike!!
👏
Alaska had an engine rebuild once on the road.
Honda
What I find amazing is that I feel as if Alaska is really a living entity. Her personality seems to carry through these videos almost as much as Noraly's.
You know the best part? This bike is a simple 286cc thumper. Less than 7000€, 27 hp. But it weighs 140kg empty!
And people think they need huge monstruous engines, we keep hearing these motorcycle youtubers that only go to their back yard yapping on and on about these 250kg monsters with 160hp and how they're perfect for adventure, how "you need this and that"
Hell no. This is what adv bikes should be. I don't know if Noraly did some work to it, but getting a high performance air filter and exhaust, and tuning it to perform better and outside EURO 5 regs would be all the bike needs to go everywhere.
I must say ; you’re quite courageous going to these isolated parts alone . A lot of Nigerians wouldn’t even consider embarking on anything similar
I won’t even try coming here alone fear go finish me
@@itobigift I wouldn't even go to the next street talkless of these places 😅
@@Siege_Wolfpack fr I won’t those places are scary mehn
@@dagerry LoL kidnap for ransome. That happens alot lately in Nigeria
I would. It will shock you that people out there are the most nicest and hospitable beings. And they are only kind and welcoming to travellers
I am happy that these last videos portray a somewhat balanced view of my country. in every society, you will get nuances and shades of experiences. Most commenters bashed and battered the country due to your initial experiences on the road to Abuja, but now all can see the huge diversity we have. No one was hostile to you all through your trip, everyone was welcoming and friendly, and you did not need police, military, or civilian escorts to cross Nigeria despite how some commenters try to be over the top with their prejudices. May Cameroon be nice to you as well. Best wishes.
the previous episode was good too. As for the N.E side, today was a story of the cocoa nuts from the rain forest which is echoing the Amazon rain forest clearing.
I’ve been following this series since the start and I think out of all the countries she passed she never got more praise than when going through Nigeria. 99% of the interactions she had with people where incredibly wholesome.
I think Nigerians everywhere should be proud of this culture where kindness and generosity seems as natural as breathing.
Yes!
She got lucky. Nigeria is in the top ten of countries with the highest murder rate.
@@BiffJackson-o4i She's being lucky a lot. Other top ten countries for Murder rates she has been to , Honduras, El Salvador, Belize, South Africa and Mexico.
It's not luck, it's planning , being sensible and a lot of common sense.
Hallo Noraly, herzlichen Glückwunsch zu 2 Millionen followern auf Deinem Kanal. Es gibt nur ganz wenige Frauen auf diesem Planeten, die so mutig wie Du ihr eigenes Leben gestalten und gleichzeitig so vielen Menschen soviel Freude bereiten. Ich bewundere Dich und danke Dir dafür!
Noraly, you are deserving of a humanitarian award! You have illuminated the world of people that are connected in compassion!
I lost track of how many times you said Hi in this video. Riding a remote back country trail and you greet people as nonchalantly as if they were well known neighbors living on your street. It makes my heart happy. What warm friendly people. We need more nuts in the world like you. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your over 2 million subscribers around the world.
not nuts but gems.
@@submit50 yeah right
This is some kind of National Geographic production level. She’s so good at editing this films, this are better then documentaries. Safe journeys Norali, you’re a beautiful human being.
She is an ambassador!
An ambassador for the plight of, but also for the un-self conscious beauty and spirit of, the common everyday folk around the world, treating all with equal respect and dignity. A very helpful thing to share in.
Some of the best vidiography of the trek so far!! I appreciate the extraordinary efforts to capture the views and interactions with people and places I may never get to experience in person. Thank you and continued safe travels!
I would've never envisioned Nigeria to be so beautiful with such friendly people! Everyone waving, saying hi, and the kids jumping around saying hi....it all warmed my heart. Another wonderfully entertaining voyage on this trip! Cheers Noraly!
Intimidating is not friendly
@@nps7742 Are you a recluse? People waving and saying hi is intimidating to you? I guess one could never please everybody.
@@diligenceeke3023
That guy is a Ghanaian 😂 or SA
It's not what she does, but how she does it. It's not the way she rides her motorcycle, and it's not the places she visits that make it all so special. She could have been a solo sailor, a scuba diver, or anything else.
What makes it all so special is the spirit of this woman, her smile to the world. To the people, to the animals, to the places she visits.
Never stop, girl. You are truly special and we love you.
Wonderful words! I agree!😉❤
It's just like I am always waiting for your uploads after I finish watching you, welldone, you just keep the spirits high even when it becomes so difficult, this road is hard today, sorry ❤.
Very nicely said, well written I 100% agree.
This is a masterpiece. I didn’t know Nigeria had such beautiful terrain.
Agreed, Eastern Nigeria is absolutely gorgeous. And those of us in the US cannot complain about the condition of the roads.😁
@@atticuskilby515 Really? Where in the US do you live with dirt bush paths as a main road? Let me know. Waiting to check those roads out. I am in Houston.
@@jossmaan2839 , I have lived in areas of old dirt roads, Vermont, Montana, Wyoming, Arizona.
@@atticuskilby515 I travelled all the lower 48 in 1992. Didn't see a single dirt road.
@@jossmaan2839I guess you didn't study geography in school from your statement. Are you now comparing soil texture similarities of both and their differences?
This is the best video for me so far. When you give charity to people and treat them not just as normal people but with genuine kindness, people like those truly deserve it. Look at the smiles on their faces at the end-I love it!
In Noraly's humble but confident way she breaks barriers with these roadside guards. A smile and friendly gesture goes a long way toward neutralizing aggressiveness. She almost always wins them over as we have seen all over the world.
totally agree with you there, starting the conversation with a smile takes the conversation in the right direction. It can't be easy being a border guard and their defenses must always be up. Great techniques for long term travel learnt here.
Thank you Nigeria.! You gave us great videos from the crazy check points to the beauty mountains. Thank you Noraly,now we know a little more about the the beauty of Nigeria❤
Hope everyone sees how nice, welcoming and friendly Nigerians are... even all the children show love and smile at strangers....

Sorry, my puppy loves Noraly, also...but my point was meant to be, these children obviously never have to learn: " Stranger Danger."
Thank you for the nice review
@@jaykb6587you will shocked that some of them are seeing a white person for the first time in their lives. And are so happy because their is no luxury nothing like electricity but happy with nature
Congratulations on 2 million subscribers 🎉! You have worked hard for it and are well deserving of all the accolades you get. This day was a tough one but seeing those happy people cheering you on must have been rewarding. I love how all the children are always so excited to see you. Beautiful drone footage! This was another great production Noraly!
Wow ❤❤❤ Beautiful people Nigeria 🇳🇬 love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
Love from West Africa Nigeria 🇳🇬
The guys who fixed Alaska in Ivory Coast seems to have done a wonderful job indeed.
yup
Damn it girl you’ve done it again,bringing an old man to tears. The videography on this particular episode was amazing,I was especially touched by the drone flight through the clouds was spectacular.
That's beautiful and I'm talking as a Nigerian, I was hoping you were able to see more of Nigeria rather than just cross over diagonally but you did exceptionally too to showcase the beauty of some of the mountain sides of Northwest part of the country. Thank you so much.
Exactly, because I really wanted her to visit that ikogosi where cold and hot water met each other, as well as waterfall. 🤦♂️
North East...
North East
North East my brother. That is Taraba state
Northeast of Nigeria. Stop the jealousy.
That guy who sold you water had a real language barrier but could not miss "beautiful baby"🤣🤣🤣🤣...it cracked me up
😂😂
That was very beautiful. I like how Noraly laughs, too. This is lovely.
men all over the world know when they see a beautiful woman.. Even if they are in remote areas of Africa
@@maryam-cd3gt if she was ugly, it would be a different story?
@@hanniaedithmartinezadame794 no woman is ugly..
So kind of norraly to offer a cookie to the biker guy.
Brought a tear to my eye.
Human kindness costs nothing.
You know the road is tough when Noraly starts using Dutch... Many Congratulations on 2m and thank you for the opportunity to see the world. Merry Christmas to you and your family 🙏🏽🎄
That is a mountain path, its supposed to be rocky.
Sharing cookies with a random passing fellow rider on a remote road in Nigeria. What a dream.
What a drastic change from the Nigerian city people to the hill tribes in the mountains. Just beautiful people with very positive personalities and outlook. Just seems everyone was so happy. Just amazing to see.
You’re really a very tough rider but the man was right, you’re completely nuts ! I love your style in communicating with the locals. Real empathy. Good for you.
As an African Kenyan living in Nairobi I've been watching Africa through your lenses and it melt my heart to see how beautiful this continent is most of the amazing scenes that is continent has to offer but then again I lay back and weep for this motherland with all this beauty and this so much potential what's happening with Africa when you know very well you can achieve Nigeria I've loved the terrains and I have loved the people to me they're like my brothers sisters from a distance and some of the since I just similar like those in my country and this makes me feel happy knowing that no matter what we will always be one. One Africa all Africa

Hello my brother Joshua Watching from Kitengela
I have to confess, Noraly, discovering your channel has been one of the highlights of my year. Your transformative journey has inspired me to embark on a new chapter in life, allowing me to appreciate the world's beauty through this virtual exploration with you.
May God continue to guide you all through this adventure
It really is worth watching it in chronological order from her first season till now, even if it takes a while.
Honestly, watching your videos is just giving me a very fresh view of Nigeria and indeed West Africa! Thank you for what you're doing and I'm sure it is inspiring so many people!
The beauty of the mountainous regions of Nigeria is so underrated
Yep! I wish she gets to see the beauty of Jos Plateau but it’s a little bit up north.
One needs a tank to see it though.
Well done madam!!! ❤There is nothing in this world that can take away Noraly's smile 😁. No rocky stretch,bad weather, crazy checkpoints, bad borders crossing etc.😮😮😮.
Normally, you are an athlete. The way you handle your ride over those seemingly endless conditions is beyond noteworthy. Also, outstanding content every time. You bring each country to life for us. THANK YOU!!!
A Nigerian watching from Dubai. I must say that you are a super-heroine. God bless you more lovely and generous Noraly, so cheerfully exploring my dear Nigeria and Africa at large. God be with you lovely. Kudos to Alaska, 1 in a million companion ❤👍
After watching a few dozen of your videos now, I am convinced that your smile and personality take you as far as the fuel you buy. What a great Ambassador you are.
We are all cheering you on too! Your optimism and spirit of adventure are a joy to behold. Amazing video! Noraly & Alaska, two adventurous girls going to explore and admire Africa.
I had mentioned how grateful I am for your adventures, but this time it helped me even more directly. I had never been claustrophobic before, and while getting an MRI I couldn't finish. At the next appointment I closed my eyes when I felt anxiety rise and imagined travelling with my favorite adventurers on UA-cam. I could just feel the open freedom of riding with you in so many places. It helped me through the MRI and I was so thankful I had watched these videos. As they mentioned to hold my breath or breathe while I was being scanned, I just imagined being high up on open mountain roads or beautiful drone shots. Thanks so much.
God Bless!
Best wishes to you on your health journey!!
@@plovenmark6424 Blessedly everything came out normal from the MRI. Everything they checked was OK!
One of the most peaceful continent in the world, no one stops you to ask if you’re legally allowed to be or route through the country. Beautiful people hailing you as you journey along. Everywhere is quiet and calm, peaceful and welcoming. You can help but love this people.
Nigeria is such a beautiful country with amazing landscape. Next time, travel to the southern areas
😂😂 Enjoy this because there will be no next time. You should travel south and share with the world!
the south has a rebel war going on lol she isnt going there. This place is already risky enough
It was a very emotional video for me to watch today. I was brought up in Garoua, Cameroon, and we had friends in Jimeta, Nigeria, who we visited regularly. Because there were (and still are) very few roads across the border, we would go down to Ngaoundéré, Tignère, Tibati and then Banyo and then up north again across the border. The landscapes along this itinerary in Adamawa are stunning. The roads were atrocious and absolutely unpassable in the rainy season. So, seeing that the roads 50 years later are still as atrocious as ever makes me sad that not much has changed. The people in that region are very friendly and very hard working. It is not simple to make a living up there.
I thought about your broken hand, just healed a short time ago, and I winced watching you mastering those incredibly challengings tracks. I hope you and your hand are OK! Safe travel! I am looking forward to your adventures in Cameroon!
😊😊😊 imagine if there were good roads and railway connections between Nigeria and Cameroon how travels and tourism could flourish and improve the economy and the people??? Africa my Africa 😢
They are not roads just tracks, many times thought you must be going the wrong way. I see a mosque so Moslem people, some trucks, how on earth on earth did they get there?
@@ragbag46 There are off-roads like this in Europe. The trucks and the new bikes in the petrol station should give you a hint that there is a major road.
@@franklinchukwuemeka53 not 100% sure and I know she loves off-roading, but I thought she said this is the most direct road to the border, I would not be at all surprised, knowing her propensity to take off roads when possible she was doing just that, a main highway would be just too boring for Noraly,he he, also for us, anyway it’s quite obvious the way she handled it all, nothing is going to trouble her too much, wether it’s pesky road guards bothering her for her telephone number or really challenging pathways. Looking forward to how the river crossings go and of course the Cameroon with its problems with rebels. Maybe she will get taken hostage, no, only joking I am sure she will talk herself out of that!
@@ragbag46 Very simply THIS IS the road. I know, because I habe been there many times in the past. The roads are so washed out after the rainy season that it will take time to put them a bit in order with a caterpillar if the region has got the ressouces for it. Communities also try to maintain their roads as best they can. You see it in Noraly's video when huge potholes have been filled with rocks. Another solution is to make a track around the worst bits if it is possible. You see that as well in the video. I know it is difficult to blieve, but it is so....Cars and trucks are confined to the villages during the rainy season (an average of 3 months a years) and yes those roads are true killing fields for them. A motorbike has more possibilities to naviguate the horror......Watch also other Videos from Noraly in the mud further North and you will understand what rain, no maintainance and heavily overloaded trucks do to roads in this part of the world.
Noraly, I applaud you. That was tough terrain and you aced it. Everyone knew what you had to go through to get to their villages, you definitely deserve the respect they gave you for overcoming those challenges. Stunning countryside views. I'm absolutely enjoying this series.
I like all the episodes but this one is really special so far, each and every interaction is expressed with sincerity , simplicity, authentic. We are human , we are beautiful, we are all connected and living in a beautiful world. Noraly (sorry if I misspelled ) when you shared the cookies with a passing biker I was in tears of joy. Thank you for being who you are ❤
For the Nigerians in the comment section that didn't know we have such beautiful landscapes, that is the Mambila Plateau in Taraba state. That state is perhaps one of the most blessed, but the government has not just done well. It is an amazing place to visit.
I'm a Nigerian. Thanks for sharing. :)
You mean Cross River State, Calabar
Are you saying theres no equalization subsidization between rich and poor states within nigeria?
@@GeraldBeagan-ee6senope not at all. It's a free market.
bro its taraba state the woman literally said that there was no boarder crossing for strangers in the south due to IPOB and ambazonians in cameroon yes obudu cattel ranch does look similar to taraba

They guy standing at the checkpoint was prepared for a desirable second encounter with Noraly with his phone number written down in a piece of paper. Self confidence and faith is everything. 😂❤
Who else looks forward to Itchy Boots videos like their favourite tv show?
Nigeria could be a top tourist destination. It just needs better roads and security. Thanks for sharing 🙏
Nigeria has good roads. She chose that shortcut because the main bder was closed.
@@Oliver-l4l7tNigeria doesn't have good roads. Stop deceiving yourself
@@save_theworld where are you from? Let's start from there.
The trek to the border was definitely challenging in places, the aerial drone footage in the clouds was phenomenal, and the people along the way so nice and friendly! Such beautiful views of the area from the drone! Ride safe Noraly!
Congratulations on the Noraly Nation now at more than 2 million subscriptions. Anyone watching this episode can see why you deserve every single one of them. Many thanks.
Noraly- All I can say is that your twice a week videos are the highlight of my week. You my dear, are a FANTASTIC woman like few others! Merry Christmas
The African continent’s landscape is breathtaking and it’s people are beautiful
It's like you've gone back to the roots of humanity over there. Amazing. There is something primal about that landscape.
This was an exceptional adventure. The elements of the journey pre-staged the drone flight that lifted us off a rugged road in the depths of Africa into an ethereal realm in mist among the clouds, floating over rich green hillsides. Absolutely beautiful. The music enchanting. Serene. Peaceful. Below, out of the clouds appears Noraly’s ‘road less traveled’ lined with trees surrounded by fields. Then the reality of you and your bike on that road to your adventure again. Out of the clouds and back into the dirt, gently encouraging cows with enchanting music blending both realms and on through countryside joyously greeting people waving, smiling. Remarkable. Beautiful. Extraordinary. Thank you again, Noraly for bringing us with you.
WOW! You have a way with words! Beautifully expressed! You should be a novelist! Appreciate your comment!!
Noraly и Аляска, отличная команда!!! Спасибо за прекрасные пейзажи, Африка удивительный континент!!! Нигерия страна контрастов!
You're witnessing beautiful scenaries, but also blessing these people with your presence. You're leaving a mark I tell you
Amazing how people change in the same country, from corrupt police and ferry scammers to smiling and friendly villagers.
This is much better than being very worried about you. Thank you and ride safely!
What nonsense are you saying?
@@Moon-factsYou dey mind the werey
@@Moon-facts is that an objective observation. why are you writing nonsense.
@@Tenofizzy oh again. why werey
He is referring to the policeman that was asking her for money a couple of videos ago and one ferry guy that charged her like mad to take her and her bike across a river.
There are beautiful and not so beautiful sides to Nigeria. Me sef I can’t do what she is doing for obvious reasons. Happy she is riding safe
This is so beautiful to see, thanks so much for doing this. Most Northerners (and Nigerians at large) are like this, friendly and happy people. The government is the problem that is stopping the country from fulfilling its potential, I just hope we get things right.
‘Keep the change’ that shows wisdom & character. Why I admire Itchy Boots.
Thank you for having the guts to go and produce this great film. I never plan on going to Africa as it always seemed very dangerous to me. Great music also by the way. Much love from Austria
África é um bom lugar o problema é o interesse de pessoas que querem seus recursos e promovem instabilidade
As my wife and I watch this, it occurs to us, wherever Noraly has just been, the rest of the world remains just ahead of her front tire. Incredible! What an interesting and courageous person. Thanks for bringing us along. 🙏❤️
A dam may be built here so some of the land would be lost to the man made lake that would build up because of the dam.
Whenever you activate your drone,the music that accompanies it is just heavenly. I wonder who picks the music/soundtrack. Just...insanely awe-inspiring. Thank you for all the amazing sceneries. May the powers that be, always guide and protect you.
Noraly Picks it she chooses it from a royalties free web site
This one was particularly inspired - we all floated away on the clouds to that pretty music!
Noraly shows us how beautiful the world is. And that basically people are nice humans everywhere. Thanks a lot for your episodes, Günter/Nürnberg
Thank you for the magnificent drone shots for allowing us to see the nobility of the villagers and the remote towns where their people are kind and helpful. Have a good trip, take care
I love everything about your episodes. The beautiful scenes, the beautiful people, the music, Alaska, and the way you interact with everyone. I do find myself holding my breath as you navigate such treacherous terrain! I don’t think you are nuts, but very brave and adventurous.
The reason that border crossing is open is because they do not think anyone would use that road . Chapeau Noraly. Amazing scenery, says Noraly ,if she dares to look on that road.
Those longhorned African cows are beautiful Your adventures are mindblowing Noraly
Congratulations on 2 million subscribers. You are the hardest working woman on UA-cam. You definitely deserve it. You are the bravest person I have ever known of.
Noraly had a much more enthusiastic riding after that small interaction at that store. It shows how much a good human connection can do to your energy and spirit. Always a pleasure watching you speak with the locals.
Lovely to see you here idol 😊
@@anthonyhomercycling Hahaha You're here too, lods! Nice! 😁👍
A testament to Honda and Adamo & friend who did the driveway total strip down, clean out and rebuild of Alaska's engine. Still running strong thru KMs of rough terrain.
You did a great job of capturing the many unseen landmarks of Nigeria 🇳🇬. I am forever grateful, because I don't believe I would have ever seen how kind my country men are and how beautiful my homeland is. THANK YOU ❤
This brought tears to my eyes. I’m from western Nigeria but born in the north and I miss the days we were together as one nation. 😢
The whole world is being made into enemies against itself.
@@jakewillits4678 it’s just a crazy world. God help us all
@@heznadastudios• Yes fore sure. HE, YAHWE promised to help us. HE is sending Yeshuwa to free us from the one who devides and tries to conquer us.
Amen to that
Such a beautiful scenery right there in Nigeria ! Imagine a peaceful country where the kids go to school cows eating grass, men going to their fields what can be a lovely life? So stunning !!!🎉🎉🎉🎉 congrats 2 milli subs
Africa roads at its best, love the landscapes and mountains shots. Cannot believe how friendly the people are, news media and social media sometimes give one the wrong impressions. Be safe.
Talk about nigeria, kenya roads are not this sh*tty
@@KIM-xl6zssame Kenya that Mr Beast was digging wells for, with terrible roads?
@@techtactics788 @techtactics788 I only saw good roads in the Mr Beast Kenyan video. I have visited Nigeria too but Kenya has better roads for sure. I love Abuja and Lagos but the interior parts of Nigeria are a bit tricky.
Now you know better not to believe news and media.
When it comes to respecting and being warm to foreigners, Nigerians are the top.
It is a value instilled in us to welcome and warm to outsiders.
@@techtactics788 yes same kenya, but am sure you need those wells than we do, come on, an un tarmaked highway, come to kenya and see roads, come and see what we call infrastructure, you are such a rich country with nothing to show, all that oil money and nothing, come on
am akenyan one of your biggest fan and i love the way you are so kind to people God Bless You Itchy Boots
Your humility is definitely something to mention. To see how you treat and respect everyone regardless of their social economic status makes your channel one of the greatest channels on this platform. Continue doing great and we'll continue watching. Much Love from W. Palm Beach Florida.
Even thru sketchy weather, almost impassable roads, worrisome check points and difficult admin requirements, you always approach with a smile, a lovely giggle and grim determination. You are a Shining Star that brings a much needed light to a sometimes dark world.
Your milestone of 2 million subs is testament to how much joy you bring to this community! Looking forward to Three Million!
Highest Respect Best Wishes and Happy Trails! Proud to be an IthcyBooter !!! 😁💖🏍🤠
I am deeply humbled by the warmth of humanity you find along your path! I believe you've found the heartbeat of Africa!
Randomly starting watching. About 5 episodes in, and as others have mentioned, it has brought some tears. What an amazing journey. Thank you
What a brave lady you are! I'm watching you since you started your world tour on the Himalayan from India. In real sense, you're the true role model of women empowerment! More power to you. God bless!
This was one of my favourite parts of Africa when I went from Cork Ireland 🇮🇪 to Cape Town on the West Coast of Africa
Very happy to see how supportive the Nigerian security and local people appear to be. Best wishes.
Well done! This is definitely one of my favorite videos because it evokes so many wonderful memories of the amazing people in Africa. They are incredibly kind and welcoming, always wishing you well simply because you are there.
Misty mountains indeed - but still beats transiting Moria below! The drone shots flying through the mist and clouds were spectacular, good job!
Thank you Itchy Boots you put a lot work into this video! Both on the rough road and filming/editing. The musical scores were perfect and I always enjoy the aerials. I'm so thankful you didn't break anything on the brutally rocky road, yourself or Alaska!
Congratulations on having two million people following you around the globe.
You show us how it is wherever you go. Both the tense atmosphere around the multiple checkpoints setup one after another to the friendly people that wave and welcome you as you are passing through their villages. The trek may be primitive but the people, roadside market owners, and the operators at the petrol stations treated you with honor.
Thank you for pausing to take a break and show us the dramatic scenery in the high country and fly us through the wispy clouds.
Driving a herd of cattle seems much easier than commuting from village to village in a jeep.
Stay safe and healthy as you lead us on our adventure.
Blessings, Don
The background music and the scenery over the mountains where she made a stop and launched a drone made me cry 😢. Beautiful country
Your drone footages,video editing and playlist arrangment are top notch. Infact i followed your Africa playlist from Morroco to Nigeria and every thing was perfectly arranged back to back not a single mix up all perfectly arranged. This is one of the best in Utube.👍
