The gas station scene in Sierra Leone is an instant classic. I was as if you had dropped in from Mars. All the way from Holland on that little bike with all your gadgets. Cinema verite
I love that you don’t sugar coat things and show the good and bad, I feel like a lot of travelers only show the bad and I hate that. I think you do not understand the magnitude of your work!... keep us all dreaming to be where you are, have the courage to drive where you are driving!, and project this positive loving human kind attitude!... we all appreciate you!
I think and really do hope she understands the magnitude of her work. She does a lot of good, surely she sees that. Here's a quote I found online referring to Dutch people, "They do not draw attention to themselves and do not value the accouterments of success highly prized by other western societies. They dislike displays of wealth, as they run counter to their egalitarian beliefs. They do not boast about their accomplishments or their material possessions."
Noraly, I love your videos and the attention you have brought, (in a good way,) not only for motorcyclist worldwide, but especially to duel sport riding. The history that you share is priceless. I have ridden most of my life and am as close to three quarters of a century in age as you can get without being there. Recently I watched the ABR 2023 videos. You were amazing! The way you conduct yourself is a talent many of us could learn from. The world is always looking for someone they can look up to as an example and you have fulfilled this many times over. You are not only a skilled rider, but a very classy lady. I wish you the very best and look forward to every adventure you share with your Internet family. May God continue to watch over you and bless you!
Best fuel stop ever! Giving the woman the money amongst all the men was the best! The woman walked away so proud! And you were so happy you gave her the money! The men laughed knowing what was going on! We can tell you are stopping more to let Alaska cool down! Now you have left us in total intrigue! 🙂
Wow! The gasoline pump crowd was really amazed about your travels! The people are so genuine, yet so depressed by the labor situation and disease. Another country entered and I hope Alaska started again soon! Thanks for another day in your adventure! Ride safe Noraly!
It's a little surprising that the gas pump guy just casually holding big wads of cash. Do robberies not happen there or the money is not worth much that they don't even try?
I'm from West Africa, precisely from Guinea-Bissau and I live here in Bissau, after having seen your video that you made in our country in Bissau, I decided to take my time and watch all your videos from this season 7 Africa, but my conclusion with your good interaction with people from all the countries you've been to, comes from your good way of being, your are friendly and respectful, keep it up and everything will be fine. Dear visitors of this channel, I assure you that West Africa has a very generous and kind people, maybe we are poor, but kind.
Hi first time watching your vlog I'm from Scotland are u not scarred going thru these countries I would love to see what motor cycle Ur on. Never tried , I use to road cycle racing bykes don't have licence as I'm 76 but what I've seen god bless and I will certainly watch from now on you are very cheerful it's better than watching TV 👍
Gosh, what a cliffhanger! Great episode Noraly, especially the enthusiastic interactions at the fuel station. Beautiful, peaceful countryside - quite enticing! PS: Enjoyed your informative ABR festival talk. Have SOOO much more respect for your hard work now. Really appreciated today's video as a result. Kudos Noraly.
GSE Gas Station Encounters, Sierra Leonne style ... great to see you sharing the interest in technology with local riders. Miles of smiles, Noraly! 🙂👍👍
Thanks for the video, I got to see Serra Leone. My friend is from SL, met him in my country at an internship in Pakistan. He went back home, I do miss hanging out with him though. Great guy. Intelligent guy, a good and hardworking student. My professor still compliments about the research and write-up he did.
@@jerrym3261 … and, as well, Noraly has lived a life and seen parts of the world most of us can only dream about (or watch her videos)! Lol…. You did indeed make a great point!
Loved those guys at the petrol station treating you like an Alien from Planet Zod. LOL. And that Woman holding out her hand for Money and you giving her some. Brilliant. See you on Sunday.
The largest Ebola outbreak ever recorded was in Guinea-Sierra Leone-Liberia in 2014/15. That region has been through a lot, like you said, but good to see the people are as resilient as ever and bouncing back from those challenges. Beautiful part of the world!
Hope that you got your bike problems got sorted out without too much hassle Noraly. Being stranded in foreing country with dead bike, not a best feeling. Been there done that. Luckily people are usually helpful and solution arises one way or another. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us!
Noraly I have to comment again you are so brave, always with a beautiful smile. You are the envy of all your supporters through this long journey. A life time of adventures, adrenaline and fortitude may God bless you. Keep safe.
Lisa & I feel so blessed to come across your channel. We are so proud of you and the interaction you have with the people you meet. Once in Luzon PI my buddy and I got lost with the Jeep in new a people’s army territory. We ran across a older man carrying wood stacked really tall on his back. He said is was dangerous there and we should go to his village. We gave him a ride home many miles away. The whole village told us to stay so we did and slept in a grass hut but kept hearing people moving around outside. The next morning we woke to find the whole village cooking some pigs for a party for us bringing their elder home. These people had very little yet gave us so much. As we left in the morning after we all ate they all ran after us. John and I went to a market to buy them 5 new pigs and supplies and again went to the village to give all and more back to them. To see their smiles and feel their gratitude make us all happy. Everyplace we went around the world the poorest people were the best, the kindness, the things they taught us and how happy and proud they were. Best days of my life. 👍 keep up the good work.
Itchyboots gathers motorbike riders around her wherever she goes, whether it’s Siera Leone or the ABR festival. And then there’s the cliff hanger ending, what a riveting vlog.
I spent four years in the Peace Corps in Sierra Leone many years ago, and traveled to many of the same places throughout West Africa. I taught at a teacher training college north of Kenema -which was where I did most of my weekly shopping. I enjoyed this and many other of your videos. So great to relive my African experiences through your travels. You are a wonderful ambassador to foreign lands, a savvy traveler, and just plain fun to listen. to. Thank You!!
I hope that you were able to get Alaska repaired! I watched “Blood Diamond” last night, about the Civil War in Sierra Leone. So much wealth coming from the earth, but so little going to the people mining it.
What is amazing wherever she go, she was the center of attention among the local especially among men who can’t believe she can do it traveling alone by herself . Her friendly smile makes everyone comfortable to talk to her. Keep up the good vibes and take care ! Thanks .
Motorbikes are used commercially in most African countries and risers are always men, that is why they are shocked with the lady Rider and more so the distance she has done.
Hello Noraly, each new adventure fills my life with energy and happiness, my mind with new knowledge, thank you for teaching us so much about each place you visit, good luck on each trip
Thanks for visiting my country SIERRA LEONE 🇸🇱. . hope you enjoyed the short time here. I wish you all the best in your next adventures, also i hope you will visit this country again someday. 🤍🙏🏾
NEW WORLD RECORD! --- for creating the most ball of fun, smiles, and curiosity at a gas station --- in the history of the internal combustion engine. Congratulations, Noraly!
The Lord watches over her ,and the angels in heaven like her too...she's going to always be one of those people that will always come though without a scratch .
Breakdown is never fun, but good thing it happen at the checkpoint than in the middle of nowhere like jungle. Hope everything is ok and started again at the next showing.
What a beautiful person you are. You always have a smile for everyone in every situation. You always trust people, I don't know how you do it, I would always be a little scared.
Unbelievable and amazing video today😍. Your friendly approach with locals and let them know how many kilometers you have traveled. They got so amazed. That's the same way for us. We are so impressed with your adventures. Thank you Noraly.
It's so much fun to ride in these kinds of countries. You feel like a rockstar just putting on petrol. But they're always respectful and nice, and love when you chat with them... ❤
Loved the WOW's... usually when you say you rode all the way from NL they are kind of "whatever", this crowd actually understood what you were saying and were truly impressed. Great to see that interaction.
Watching your videos I feel completely free... you are amazing, Thanks for share us your awesome trip, and your awesome life. a big hug for you and be safe.
I'm learning so much about how to treat people and be confident, strong but kind even in scary situations (when a lot of men surrounded you at the gas station for example). Thank you!
Now that ended with a **BAAM!!1!** indeed! 😳 That cliffhanger even outdoes Charly's! He usually announces looming dramas before. But as we saw in Sierra Leone you are guaranteed instant stardom, wherever you show up there. You could make a living with the "All singing - all dancing Itchy Boots Motorcycle Extravaganza"-stage show there while waiting for the parts for Alaska. 😊 Another lovely one, made my day! 🤗😍² Now wait until Sunday… 😵💫
South Africa is more scary than Sierra Leone. SL is one of the safest countries in Africa while SA is one of the most violent and dangerous IN THE WORLD. 😊
Oh my goodness Noraly, you left us with a cliffhanger!!! I sure hope everything turned out OK for you 😓!! Wow, you certainly attracted a big friendly crowd on the fuel stop!! Lots of love from Gene in Tennessee.
You always smile and laugh, I think it is contagious, and It helps break the ice. People find very friendly because of that. I love your videos I watch you all the way from Guatemalan, thank you for sharing you experience.❤
😍Thank you very much for your sincere kindness 😊 You have inspired immeasurably great enthusiasm and even started many to follow in your footsteps.. Itchy Boots is the best joy I have ever experienced, a new hobby and enthusiasm for new challenges🤩🤩🤩
I love the look of awe on the faces of the men. And I like that they were friendly and respectful. As a West African who once did a road trip from Lagos, Nigeria to Accra Ghana I know how challenging it is to travel these parts. Kudos Noraly. One day I hope to return to the continent and try get further west to Senegal , and maybe even drive further North.
Respectful friendliness is pretty much in the DNA of West African people. There are exceptions of course but in general this is one part of the world where you really can learn good manners.
Tough ride in Sierra Leone on wet, muddy roads. Hopefully, Alaska will not have any more starting problems and you are able to make it to Monrovia. Best of luck and hope things go well. Be safe, be careful, and have a great trip the rest of the way to Monrovia. Enjoy the journey and keep the faith!
That was so fun at the filling station and your "crowd". Nice that you all could communicate in English. Did that lady just want your change from the petrol? LOL! That was cool, seeing hardly any cars on the road in town, just motorbikes. Uh-oh. I hope your bike was just having a moment at the end, there. 😬 At least, we know from your UK trip, it got taken care of somehow. Whew!
Wow! You really know how to draw a crowd Noraly! Now you really left us hanging wondering why Alaska won't start. Anxiously awaiting your next episode to see what happens.
Incredible experience. As a person who travelled through many African countries decades ago, I have a real 'feel' for what I'm watching you do. Fearless and confident. I like your style... 🙂
Gives stopping at the border new meaning... I salute you in your journey of communicating with a smile and a laugh to stay safe in sticky outnumbered situations. Peace and safety to you always
Spectacular scenery but tough going on the bush track. We are left in suspense. I wish you all the best with Alaska your trusted and loyal transport. Safe travels
THE GAS STATION! My Anxiety Went through the roof! I couldnt handle that many people at my local gas station. I dont know how you are able to remain so calm and composed. I am, as always, amazed by your courage and strength! Ride On!
motorcycles are so much fun when they don't break...unexpectedly, for no apparent reason...and to think I look for smooth road watching this in amazement.
Gua gua gua , de admiración e increible lo q vas viajando en lo de la gasolineria. Y la gente del lugar se arrima a consultarte. Saludos Noraly, desde Argentina, Dios bendiga a la gente de África. Bendiciones.
You handled the gas station so well. And yes, being on a motorcycle is a huge advantage in this culture. It is fun to see how excited they get to see their town on a map on a computer on a motorcycle! Must seem like magic. Noraly, I have no idea why you are so determined to do this kind of exploration, but I can tell you it has been an enlightening, educational and inspiring experience to encounter all of these people with you. You are doing noble service as an international ambassador. By the way, your endurance is epic.
Nora must look like an astronaut if the GoPro looks like magic. She needs to be aware. In the Liberian war..they were eating the hearts of dead people. Fact
I'm Sierra Leonean and how is a Google map/GPS on table is a magic. I can say she is very brave but every technology she carries there can be found in Sierra Leone. Except that most of the young men she interacted with do not have the opportunity to come across such. However, you need to change your mentality about African countries. The West hid a lot of technology from us and China made so much available than you think.
@@fayiaforay Glad to hear man, but this will change now since Africa is moving away from West and creating Actual diplomatic and cooperation ties with Russia and China Wish the best and praying for Niger , Mali and Burkina Faso ! 🙏
I love your travel videos. Your are kind hearted and know how to connect with people. I just subscribed to your chanel . I love the way you engage us when riding your motorcycle. Love from kenya🇰🇪
For any non-bikers here, I feel the need to say that her skills are really impressive. The way she navigates such difficult terrain with so much gear is really impressive.
I see you now as an Ambassador of Africa. We may be decades behind the western world in terms of education and technology but Africa so far has shown how kind nd generous we are as a people.
I think you have understood everything about the African mentality. When I saw you surrounded by this large number of young men, and you showed no signs of nervousness when other Europeans would be put on alert, then I tip my hat to your calm. and your intelligence. Congratulations. 😍😍😍😍😍 from Morocco.
Coming from an Arab and knowing things you do in Europe to European women, I would argue she would be more scared if surrounded by you people, Sub-Saharan africans are different in my opinion.
@@mabhodlelajj1195 I am not Arab. I am amazigh and African. This woman, before to arrive in Sierra Leon, she spent a long time in Morocco and she was very good there. Go back to her previous videos. Please, Stop spreading hatred between peoples.
Great job Noraly and thanks for showing us Sierra Leone and Liberia especially the terrible roads in Sierra Leone. I really like your conversations with the Sierra Leoneans and Liberians and I am glad you were welcomed in both countries without any difficulties at all. It looks like you found love at the Liberian checkpoint because your motorcycle just turned off and refused to start............lol

As a West African who once did a road trip from Lagos, Nigeria to Accra Ghana I know how challenging it is to travel these parts. Kudos Noraly. One day I hope to return to the continent and try get further west to Senegal , and maybe even drive further North.
I imagine getting out of Lagos in one piece was the hardest part.
Respectful friendliness is pretty much in the DNA of West African people. There are exceptions of course but in general this is one part of the world where you really can learn good manners.
I thought she looked a bit worried ,did well just to get the hell out of there.
Why did she give that woman money
@@535832 Apparently she asked for it,kinda panhandling.
@@535832she wasn't not worried, you are just assuming she was.
I love the way all the African young boys come around your bike fascinated by it!!! Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Tough ride in Sierra Leone on wet, muddy roads. Hopefully, Alaska will not have any more starting problems and you are able to make it to Monrovia. Best of luck and hope things go well. Be safe, be careful, and have a great trip the rest of the way to Monrovia. Enjoy the journey and keep the faith!
That was so fun at the filling station and your "crowd". Nice that you all could communicate in English. Did that lady just want your change from the petrol? LOL! That was cool, seeing hardly any cars on the road in town, just motorbikes. Uh-oh. I hope your bike was just having a moment at the end, there. 😬 At least, we know from your UK trip, it got taken care of somehow. Whew!
I love how polite and vague you are with your responses to authority.
Wow! You really know how to draw a crowd Noraly! Now you really left us hanging wondering why Alaska won't start. Anxiously awaiting your next episode to see what happens.
Respect has to be earned and you definitely earned it. The world is yours, all of it.
Incredible experience. As a person who travelled through many African countries decades ago, I have a real 'feel' for what I'm watching you do. Fearless and confident. I like your style... 🙂
Thank you for visiting my country Sierra Leone, hope you enjoyed your short stay? Safe journeys over the border in Liberia and I hope you fix Alaska!
You have a beautiful country, many motorcycles like Latin America.
Thanks, motorcycles are cheaper for the locals and suit the roads better
It was like a pillion riding on Alaska with Noraly along the route enjoying the journey and the stories. Safe journey Itchy Boots!!
I love this woman for her courage, this is one of my dreams that one day I will travel on a motorcycle to Europe I love you so much stay bless
Gives stopping at the border new meaning...
I salute you in your journey of communicating with a smile and a laugh to stay safe in sticky outnumbered situations.
Peace and safety to you always
Spectacular scenery but tough going on the bush track. We are left in suspense. I wish you all the best with Alaska your trusted and loyal transport. Safe travels
Wow! is all I can say, bless your soul and good luck in your travels!
THE GAS STATION!
My Anxiety Went through the roof! I couldnt handle that many people at my local gas station. I dont know how you are able to remain so calm and composed.
I am, as always, amazed by your courage and strength!
Ride On!
In the USA gas stations can be dangerous late at night, but usually not during the day.
Yeah and at 4:40 that woman just straight up asking for money. Rude with the hand.
There was no need to worry in such a big crowd, she was very safe here. No shootings or robberies especially during day
motorcycles are so much fun when they don't break...unexpectedly, for no apparent reason...and to think I look for smooth road watching this in amazement.
Glad to see you having great time in my hometown Kenema. Have a wonderful journey 🙏😍
Gua gua gua , de admiración e increible lo q vas viajando en lo de la gasolineria. Y la gente del lugar se arrima a consultarte. Saludos Noraly, desde Argentina, Dios bendiga a la gente de África. Bendiciones.
You handled the gas station so well. And yes, being on a motorcycle is a huge advantage in this culture. It is fun to see how excited they get to see their town on a map on a computer on a motorcycle! Must seem like magic. Noraly, I have no idea why you are so determined to do this kind of exploration, but I can tell you it has been an enlightening, educational and inspiring experience to encounter all of these people with you. You are doing noble service as an international ambassador. By the way, your endurance is epic.
magic? no not really just feels like fun thing to do.
You see most of them on phones yet you still assume seeing a GPS is like magic to them. Typical passive-aggressive behavior.
Nora must look like an astronaut if the GoPro looks like magic. She needs to be aware. In the Liberian war..they were eating the hearts of dead people. Fact
I'm Sierra Leonean and how is a Google map/GPS on table is a magic. I can say she is very brave but every technology she carries there can be found in Sierra Leone. Except that most of the young men she interacted with do not have the opportunity to come across such. However, you need to change your mentality about African countries. The West hid a lot of technology from us and China made so much available than you think.
@@fayiaforay Glad to hear man, but this will change now since Africa is moving away from West and creating Actual diplomatic and cooperation ties with Russia and China
Wish the best and praying for Niger , Mali and Burkina Faso ! 🙏
I love your travel videos. Your are kind hearted and know how to connect with people. I just subscribed to your chanel . I love the way you engage us when riding your motorcycle. Love from kenya🇰🇪
I’m here smiling all through the video like I’m on the bike with you thank you so much for taking us through the journey
you know exactly that Noraly is doing a fantastic job with her travel vlogs when you just think "i hate these cliffhangers" at the end of the video ;)
For any non-bikers here, I feel the need to say that her skills are really impressive. The way she navigates such difficult terrain with so much gear is really impressive.
Noraly tackling hard single track sitting down is practically a meme at this point.
As a non-biker, the 4 people on 1 small bike doing the same track in sandals is kinda more impressing.
We all hope you stay safe. God bless you all.
Let's head off on another amazing Itchy Boots adventure!
I have really enjoyed your content, wish you peacefull road and cheers from Croatia..
Can I say, I am not a motorcycle fan by any means but so enjoy watching your adventures.
I’m the same! Noraly’s uploads are so addictive!
I'm a huge motorcycle fan, I have 10. That's not why I'm here and I have a good guess you and I are here for similar reasons.
@@jerrym3261 just a great adventure
Yep don't need to be a motorcycle fan to eat this up. Nothing better. Everyone loves to watch Wonder Woman
Oh no ! Possible bad fuel? Hopefully not serious. Stay safe, Noraly. Dan. ✌️🏍🇨🇦
I see you now as an Ambassador of Africa. We may be decades behind the western world in terms of education and technology but Africa so far has shown how kind nd generous we are as a people.
Noraly Voce causa comocao no povo por onde passa, o povo fica admirado de ver voce toda equipada , Voce e Uma lenda garota.☺️☺️☺️🇧🇷
I think you have understood everything about the African mentality. When I saw you surrounded by this large number of young men, and you showed no signs of nervousness when other Europeans would be put on alert, then I tip my hat to your calm. and your intelligence. Congratulations.
😍😍😍😍😍 from Morocco.
Who says?
The people in Sierra Leone are friendly , peaceful and mostly love strangers
She is incredibly warm. They were intrigued by her not wanting to cause harm
Coming from an Arab and knowing things you do in Europe to European women, I would argue she would be more scared if surrounded by you people, Sub-Saharan africans are different in my opinion.
@@mabhodlelajj1195 I am not Arab. I am amazigh and African. This woman, before to arrive in Sierra Leon, she spent a long time in Morocco and she was very good there. Go back to her previous videos. Please, Stop spreading hatred between peoples.
You are such a brave woman. I admire your courage & I wish you always stay strong, safe and healthy 👍🏻
Noo, now I have to wait till sunday to see how this ends!! Good to keep in mind that she uploaded this episode, so it probably all went well. 😁
Oh my dear!! How could you leave us stranded with Alaska not starting!? You will both be in my prayers!!!
What a cliffhanger, a guy that loves her and a bike that doesn't start somewhere in the middle of nowhere 😅
Middle of nowhere, Liberia...
Not a great situation to be in
@@BoycottChinaa dahhhh🤤
There's always a back up
In a country prone to civil wars
Great job Noraly and thanks for showing us Sierra Leone and Liberia especially the terrible roads in Sierra Leone. I really like your conversations with the Sierra Leoneans and Liberians and I am glad you were welcomed in both countries without any difficulties at all. It looks like you found love at the Liberian checkpoint because your motorcycle just turned off and refused to start............lol
I’ve traveled that road as a UN peacekeeper. It’s a very interesting drive. Unbelievably beautiful country Liberia.
