- In this episode, I am riding to Léon, in Nicaragua. After some walking around town, I find a local, Norlan, who joins me while motorcycling to volcano Cerro Negro, some 20 kilometers from Leon. We hike up the active volcano, and I get to board down it again. So much laughter and fun!

You just haven't lived if you haven't ridden a motorbike through a restaurant😂. And then slid down an active volcano on a piece of board, nogal. This series has had the most incredible variety. As a South African, I thought nothing could top your African adventure, but this whole series has had me eating "humble pie". Brilliant stuff. Please keep it coming.
@Eleanor James ... I laughed out loud when she rode her bike through the restaurant.
That blew my mind.
Truth has been spoken.
😍
Yes this series is terrific, but South Africa was epic as well. Really opened my eyes to a beautiful country.
Truly pure entertainment! I am in my late 60's and have had a fairly adventuresome life, lots of motorcycle riding, serving in the armed services, overseeing construction projects in many places and have been so fortunate in so many ways. But, you Noraly, are one of few people of whom I am envious of your experiences and explorer spirit. What an amazing person and superb chronicler of your shared experiences. Thank you so much for sharing this with us mere mortals. Boarding down volcanic outflows has to be so exhilarating. Safe travels.
I was in your live chat yesterday and you opened up about your stresses, anxieties, and the overwhelming support and hate. I didn't realize these were things you struggled with because you were always so upbeat and positive. Please don't be so hard on yourself. We deeply appreciate all the content you put out. At the end of the day, what matters most is being good enough for yourself and setting out to do things that lives rent free in your heart.
Brilliant video. How many people have rode a bike through a restaurant and bar and then had food somewhere else.Keep it up Noraly.
Beautifully said. 😍
I couldn’t agree more, people go their whole lives with the regret of not trying, not traveling, or not feeling fulfilled. I can speak for many, you help inspire people to get out and go. Even if it’s just on a short ride or some where new.
Exactly true. You are well loved by tons of folks you've never met. And by everyone you do meet. Ride with joy.
Well said!
I am speechless! You have no comparison! 👍 Nothing compares to you!
I am here for the inspiration to live life larger and the message that the world and the people in it are not nearly as dangerous as I thought. I live in the US, was thinking of visiting Ecuador with the possibility of moving there. That's how I found this channel, it was posted on a Ecuador expat channel when Itchy Boots was there in January. I've watched all but a very few of the 418 episodes. My plan is now to put some stuff in storage, sell my house that doesn't fit me anymore and get out in the world without the worry of what is going on with my home. It's easy to see that Noraly is the perfect medicine for me right now. Thank you, Noraly!
Right there with you Jerry! Hope to be in Ecuador in June.
@@donminecuador6044 If I were guessing I would say June would be my month too. It will be how long it takes to get my stuff down to where it fits in a 10x20 storage unit and getting the house in shape to sell. Last week, one house very near me went pending in 7 days another in 2 so quick to sell, the closing may take longer. I'm planning to start in Olon. Do you have a locale picked out?
@@jerrym3261 I don't have a house to sell, but I have a lifetime of stuff to sell, and it's going slowly - very slowly. Putting stuff in storage is like putting good money after bad. I know because I've been doing it for many years. 🤣
It is great that you have a house to sell. Prices are insanely high and not sustainable IMHO. So you are probably getting out at just the right time. Good luck!
I've all but decided to start out in Cuenca and hope that I don't have a problem with elevation sickness. If that doesn't work out, I might try Loja. I want to live where there is excellent public infrastructure and everything I need is an easy commute. Also, healthcare is an issue, as is fluency in Spanish so that limits my choices. For a long time, I considered Manta but I think it is too small and frankly, I've had my fill of heat and humidity.
@@donminecuador6044 I have lived on the beach and know I can be quite entertained sitting/ walking on the beach. I might consider moving to elevation for the climate knowing the beach is a short motorcycle ride away. I recently got the idea that the tourist visa you get when you get off the plane is good for 90 days in a rolling 365 days so, you can suspend your 90 days. I could stay in Ecuador 40 days, go to a different country and come back to Ecuador with 50 days left. I'm thinking to maybe look at Nigaragua, Panama, Costa Rico, maybe others before I commit to getting a visa in one of them. As far as stuff, there's very little my son will want when I'm gone and there is very little I use or even see often. For example, I have 11 motorcycles but, most of them sit unused. I'm only getting a storage space in case I end up back home. I like having options. I did learn from Dr Robert Holden to ask myself, what do I need right now to find my happiness? The answer is always, nothing. IHTH
@@jerrym3261 Sounds like a plan. I wish you well. I can well imagine how much you're enjoying Noraly's adventures - she is truly special!!
I never imagined the Sandbord ride on the volcano was so much fun. Thanks Noraly to introduce to new adventure sport. Volcanos are always a fascination to geologist.
Nice seeing you on the livestream yesterday Noraly. Happy Wednesday!
Noraly....your videos give me so much inspiration. You are such a brave and adventurous soul. Stay safe and keep up the great videos.
I tap out, I give up trying to predict your next adventure. Stay safe, be yourself and don't worry about entertaining strangers and what we might think... this is your journey and we are blessed you're sharing it with us.
What's more exciting than riding a motorcycle through sand? Riding a board down a volcano! What constantly amazes me is how you find these things. I love the comment below from Rodriguez Rey - you gave him a few things to visit in his own country. Thanks again for an amazing half hour. A million subscribers who should all be smiling today.
First time riding a bike in a restaurant !!! And everybody seems to find it normal. You're easy on sand trails, Alaska's likes it. And then lava boarding down volcano slopes... Nothing stops you, Noraly !!! 😄😄😄😎
😀👍
That downhill shot was out of this world. Some other planet.
This was my favorite video to date! I loved the happy laughs and screams going down that volcano.
I felt like I was going down it with you...lol I found my self smiling and laughing with you at times...
I loved the smiles and the happy energy. Such a fun video!
I live in Nicaragua.thaks for you visit Nicaragua
THAT WAS FANTASTIC!!!! Talk about an infectious giggle. I have this one running on a loop.
I said it once and I'll say it again.
You are the Jacques Cousteau of motorcycle exploring. The part that makes the big difference is your interpretation of your experience. Always remember that that is something unique you have: The way you can make other people feel 😊😊😊👏👏👏
This IS noraly! Adventure, travel, joy, happiness. My fav episode.
Another “Great Escape” from the doldrums of Engineering life. Love the laughter and squealing down the mountain. Thanks Noraly. Godspeed
you've really perfected that sand motorcycling riding!
The lil guy did an awesome job keeping the camera steady whilst running behind the board....super super fun. As someone else commented, a surprise in each video.
What a ride! What a country!
Noraly...omg...you are just the best!!!
I’m so glad you are enjoying Nicaragua. Hoping to see more content! 🔥
Thanks for the ride Noraly! Both up the volcano and then back down! Thanks again for the live chat too. We enjoyed spending the time with you.
See you Friday.
Good to see you letting your tyre pressure down. I always tell people the importance of doing that when off road. Our last 2 month trip into the little and great sandy deserts in Western Australia we came across many city people exploring that did not know to do that. Makes driving on sand so much easier.
Park in the restaurant. Board down a volcano. Happens every day here 😂😅🤣👏🏼👏🏼. Loved it.
Noraly, you are the best channel on UA-cam.
You are truly living life to the fullest.
How the hell did anyone think of riding down the side of a volcano on a board.
You had a lot of fun with that cool young lad.
He knew the minute he saw you that you would be game to do that.
Great video, bigger picture's and maximum fun, sharing your ride down the volcano 😆
Many thanks for sharing and take care for yourself.
Always a pleasure to watch what's your next "plan for today"! 😉
Your ride down the volcano was so awesome! I would be squealing all the way down too! LOL! Your videos really open me eyes. There are still so many off the beaten path places to immerse in and just enjoy the simplicity of nature and finding good people willing to show what their area has to offer. Thanks for sharing.🙂
Noraly, you just keep surprising us with your every adventure…thanks.
What a fantastic episode again. Another infusion of a lot of fun!! ❤
Who knew basalt could dub as snow? 🤷🏿♂️🙃🤣😂😂 I love this episode. I believe this is the first time I've ever seen the Ring of Fire outside of a book or map.
Eres realmente una querrera , me encanta tu canal. Tienes un espíritu aventurero, realmente te admiro.cuidate mucho
That was HECTIC!!!😂. What fun that volcano sledding must have been! Epic!! Thank you, Noraly, for delighting us 3x/week with your incredible, informative,adventurous, stunning, beautiful, fun-filled videos!! Love them!!
Oooooo that volcano surfing was fabulous! Norlan was so cute and funny, the perfect guide for such craziness!😂😂😂😂
I love seeing you enjoying a ride like it's look like a lot of fun hearing you screaming and laughing.. actually I'm watching your videos since season 1. Be safe always
Oh my! Way too much fun this episode, your laughter is infectious! ❤️❤️❤️
That reminds me of when at winter time when I was a child we went down local hill on a metal kitchen tray. No earth warming then cold winters and lots of snow🫠
I really cannot believe you drove your bike in and out through the restaurant... The volcano board ride was fantastic.
What a day! howling monkeys, riding through bars, surfing a volcano. Oh forgot the roosters! Noraly you never fail to delight. Stay safe.
Good morning Ms Noraly and the Mighty Ms Alaska... Yes your wake up callers did their job correctly... albeit a tad earlier than normal...
But they just wanted to make sure that you did not miss out on the great opportunity to board down a Volcano and to end up riding 20kms each way of a sandy road.
And what a great adventure it was with over 1 million people of us, riding that board with you. I do think one or two may have fallen off and are still walking back along the 20km of sandy road.
I found you by accident. I gotta say.... you are one amazing woman! I've been watching this series and after the first video, I was HOOKED!!! I've been riding Motorcycles all my life. Started on Mini-Bikes, went to dirt bikes and then to street bikes. Well, after many miles & years with multiple injuries and a few accidents (not from bikes), and I'm slowing down and back to the ADV Dual-Sport Bikes (road/dirt) again. Your videos are GREAT! You have more balls than 1/2 the guys I went to high school with! I bet you can ride as good or better than 1/2 the guys I ride with! Be careful out there! Hate to see something happen to a fellow Dutchmen! OK.... its been 3 or 4 generations since we came to Holland, Michigan USA but still, one rider to another, keep the rubber side down and when in doubt, GAS IT!!! ;-)
Continuo andando com voce
Maravilhoso vulcão
Brasil
The girl knows how to have fun, geologist-style.
Speechless...your video surfing down the volcano 👍 ...keep on riding and thanks for sharing your journey with us...from🇲🇾good luck and be safe always
Killing me with the driving through the restaurant. Cheers!
I didn't think it was possible to be inspired and appreciate you more but after the live chat then that's gone through the roof. Sending all my good vibes and love to you Noraly
aka Itchy Boots :-)
As a male... I have never had the courage to travel the whole world on a motorcycle You are very brave
I don’t know what to say anymore, your videos keep getting better and better and better. You are incredible
In science to be known by one name is the ultimate acknowledgement of expertise: DiVinci or Einstein. In the arts to be recognized soley as Elvis, or Sting or Beyoncé is the sign of success. On UA-cam, content providers dream of being a "Noraly". Wow.. this lady's posts are unmatched, unequalled!
OMG. Now I know what you were like as an 8 year old. Lol. I giggled down the whole way too 😆
What an amazing adventure 👍always a treat
Talking about a "drive thru" restaurant!!!! That's a new one for me.
Certainly you are a world treasure! 🌹🌹🏍
Your are full of surprises, what a wonderful day of adventure. Thank you again for my excitement ration for today.
Simply AMAZING! another adventure and wishing we could do the traveling that you are experiencing. Thank you for the amazing videos.
You always give us such amazing adventure Noraly. Be safe, be well, go have some fun.
That run you made down the volcano looked like the climb up was worth it! You brought a smile to my face! Thank you!
Hey Noraly, a similar thing happened to me on my motorcycle travels - I rode through the hotel lobby & kitchen in Norway to park my bike behind the hotel where it would be safe - clearly motorcycle lovers! Really enjoying this series, I've been watching your travels since India. Good luck, ride safe and most of all enjoy the experience of your travels!
Girls just wanna have fun - excellent !!!!!!!!! Cool!!!!!!😁👍One moment to forget all strange and bad headlines around the world. Thank you and Norlan for all the nice views around. See you soon ....
That view at Matagalpa is simply breathtaking. Nice one 👍🏽
Almost like snowboarding....too fun!
That ride was incredible 👏 so good
Every new video in this season is even better than the last. Amazing how Noraly edits these videos together.
What a ride. Better than a roller coaster.
OMG the bike parking in the restaurant is unbelievable.
Wow! Thank you for the experience you share
Aways so much fun to ride along.
My heels were digging into the carpet with you sliding down the volcano. Such fun and it really showed by your laughter and giggles how much fun you were having. Ride Safe!
This was fun to watch, squeals was the sound track of this episode. What an episode. 👏👏
Loved the video. You were having so much fun, it was 👍💪
I looked up in the dictionary the word “fearless” and found your picture there. Way beyond an extraordinary video.
Zo leuk om jou regelmatig "joh!" te horen zeggen 😀
That cheeky laughter at 7:17…..😂hilarious!!
Your crazy ideas will never run out!
And this sandy road was like a piece of cake for you now :-)
What fun that would be to slide down the side of a mountain/volcano, it's a bit far to go back up for a second run at it but a fun ride at least once.
waaaahhhhh I got goosebumps there...
That was so very cool rides from the top... You're just like a cannon ball from the sky falling ....the hill top view were so amazing.. much fun of it. Just stay safe take care and God bless always.
How Cool is that...Wild..How fun!!!
Ha, you used to fear sand, now, you are the QUEEN of the sand! It was amazing to watch you read the sand and put the hammer down on the Kalahari. Secretly, you love the stuff...
Riding Alaska through a restaurant gives a whole new meaning to fine dining. Noraly parks Alaska inside the restaurant, then leaves the restaurant to buy corn on the cob from a vendor🤣
Rock spitting volcano! Wow
what a nice adventure ma'am
Great fun while sliding down d volcano 👍
Hello Noraly, I almost had as much fun, as you did in this video.
Awesome journey. New experience.
Absolutely magical! It looks like a lot of fun, but it is also dangerous. Noraly, you are superb, a great Christmas present. Best to you and Godspeed. "Vaya con Dios".
What a fantastic descent! I want to do that too!
Thank you!
Absolutely 💯 experience you had 💥
Need to buy that guy leading some good tires!!!
Loved the adventure
Great idea, sounds like you might have enjoyed the boarding, coming off would be quite hazardous, lot of ‘road rash’, must be a specially tough suit. Hilarious they let you ride through that restaurant, nice people, makes me want to go there, biker friendly, brilliant episode, your sand riding is really right up there.
that corn on a stick looked SO good. Think that was a merengue playing while you ate. Good music
Ai ai ai, what an adventure
That was one great ride..thanks
One of your very best.
Such awesome adventure.
Parking through a restaurant, whoa LOL. so fun
Hahahaha..estás loca, y eso me encanta. Muy bien por un vídeo super divertido.....bravo😝
Thank you for sharing your video!
