If a legitimate award existed for best UA-cam videos, Noraly’s work would without question be a frontrunner. Her ability to translate personal experiences into visual and audio feasts (every couple days, no less!) is beyond impressive. An adventurer and artist extraordinaire who clearly demonstrates the many advantages of independent and decentralized videography. Thank you Noraly!
Thank you Noraly. Without doubt Exceptional. This planet is a wondrous living entity and I through your senses and immense abilities do appreciate this opportunity. 🙏.
I can't get enough of this episode, I have rewatched it several times already. Have not enough words to give it the praise it deserves :, the pure beauty of the desert, the music you chose, the feeling, a true out of this world experience. It moved me to tears. You have such a gift for capturing so much more than a ride, you are a Whisperer on Wheels. Thank you for this most magnificent experience...
As a Namibian woman I ABSOLUTELY LOVE your journey through my country! Thank you Noraly for showing the world this extraordinary beautiful place I call home! Greatly appreciate every detail of your tour, thank you!
Had a chance to stay in your country but finances too expensive but maybe I will go there my mates own a trucking company called Rolling thunder you truly come from a beautiful place Marty Australia
I’m an S-African - and from the few minuscule visits to Namibia I can only but agree: arguably the most magical place on earth. I can understand and relate to when someone says “I love this land”. You should be proud indeed!
That sunset drone shot is SPECTACULAR, really breathtaking! Probably one of the best shots in UA-cam, thank you for regaling us with your traveling and experiences, we enjoy every second of it
This is what paradise looks like: loving the place you are in, being the only person there, having it all to yourself, surrounded by nature, feeling happy, safe, healthy, and never needing a doctor!!
That just a lone young Dutch lady can put in all these miles and still put out such incredible content with such spectacular cinematic quality every few days, is amazing. I always look forward to these videos.
@@MB-qk5it @M B And that money is way better deserved than brainless kicking around silly footballs. Such talented youtubers should be well paid, of course.
What an amazing lodge to see out in isolation like that. For someone in the US it's unreal how far you can ride without even passing another vehicle. Your journey is taking adventure to another level and we are so lucky to be able to travel along with you.
The one thing this series does time and time again is show the grandeur and vastness of the world! Happy birthday and thanks for brightening my day one more time.
I've been watching Noraly since her trek in India, and every new season and episode I'm amazed by her. Noraly is truly living life to the fullest, and graciously allowing millions of people to join her. What a beautiful person she is inside and out. Her videos make me happy and moved after watching them.
In Germany, it`s usual, if someone has his birthday, he gets birthday gifts from his friends. Today, WE got another amazing present from you, your actual desert episode. Thank you so much, Noraly !!!
@@tee8839 Dude, don´t be rude.He just wanted to express that usualy it´s the birthday girl that gets presents from friends .And that we are all lucky bc its the other way around here with this beautiful video. No reason to mock s.o about not being a native speaker ... you totally understood that just fine.
Have you seen the Hawk comming for the drone at the end?? Many thanks for the beautyful videos! Namibia, one of the most beautyful countrys in thw World! 🇳🇦 Hei from 🇸🇯
This will always be one of your favorite videos for me. What a stunning landscape, what colors, the deserted lodge and your amazing ride through deepest sand. Thumbs up. That was incredible.
I love the Easter egg that Noralys gives those viewers that hang around for the end. A bird chases the drone, at 21:44, and is positively Disney-esque. What a treat!
As a Namibian I am so proud to hear these kind words from you. Your are so right, even so the desert is dry, it reflects so many colors and panoramic views, it’s just incredible. As we would say, the desert is alive.
I get very emotional watching the drone footage, especially with the music you play along side it. I lost my dear wife two years ago and I just know how much she would have loved and followed you Noraly. Happy Birthday and stay safe young lady.
Hello Noraly, for me as middle european it is unbeleavable how vast this area of our good earth is. Your dronage shows it as well what a great scenery it is because how tiny tiny you are on your bike. I am speechless i have to admit and thankfull to see this beautyness thru your camera eyes. Stay save and healthy and as always keep the rubber to the road, greetings from Germany.
Noraly: You really outdid yourself on this episode! The drone scenes starting at minute 5 are unbelieveable. I never knew that a desert could be so beautiful!
@itchyboots One of the things I really love about these videos is the attention to detail in editing. Like at 12:17 when you make the extra effort to fade out the sound of the air pump as the drone flies off. Those little things are the things that make these videos next-level good.
@@mreverly I think she did it very clever in this case. Her back is facing the camera, so she's probably holding the remote controller between her and the bike, so it looks like she's still messing with the tire pressure, but meanwhile she's actually flying the drone. The other drone shots of her riding is probably the drone autopilot. I'm not sure what drone she uses, but I've flown a DJI Phantom a few years back, and it had an auto-tracking mode. So you would just point at an object on the screen, and it would follow that object, and keep it in frame very smoothly. I can imagine the technology of newer drones only got better.
In the heart of Africa, where the landscapes unfold, Namibia's beauty, a story to be told. Under the Namibian sky, where the sunsets gleam, A love for Namibia, like a timeless dream. I love Namibia, where the deserts dance, Mountains whisper secrets, in a wild romance. From Etosha's grace to the ocean's embrace, In every sunrise, love takes its place Sands of Sossusvlei, shifting with grace, Footprints of love, in this vast embrace. Namibia's spirit, wild and free, A love that echoes, through eternity. Beneath the starry canvas, we find our way, Through the dunes and deltas, love will stay. In the rhythm of the Kalahari's beat, Our love for Namibia, forever sweet. From Fish River Canyon to the Zambezi's flow, Namibia's love, like a river, continues to grow. In the whispers of the wind, in the lion's roar, Our love for Namibia, forevermore. Under the Namibian sky, our hearts entwine, A love for Namibia, a love so divine. In every sunset, in every moonlit kiss, Forever in love with Namibia's bliss.
This was one of my most favorite vids of your travels in S. Africa and Namibia to date. Also, the episode with you and the security team at the diamond mine was great. Totally opposite in context, this episode features you literally alone in nature, while diamond mine episode shows you in interaction with total strangers in a foreign land! Many of the other vids in this series showed awesome features, but these two showed you and your relationship in different circumstances!
I have introduced my 80 yo dad to your channel. I am now bored of telling him, "Yes, she is on her own" and "No, she does not have a camera crew with her." Great videography. Keep up the great work. Inspirational in so many ways.
Thanks for opening my eyes to Namibia ! I was aware of it's existence before but didn't know much about it other than it was country in a desert. Your drone shots are just outstanding Noraly !
Some superb drone footage, absolutely stunning scenery and that lodge at the end was unbelievable. It's hard to imagine anywhere so far removed from civilisation, the ultimate getaway.
I said it before and I will say it again. WONDERESS, scenery with the sound track fits like a glove. This lady should get her own "channel" and just ride. I would invest.
It never ceases to amaze me that there is a modern, beautiful lodge in what looks like the middle of nowhere. And how does she find these places. It was fun to see the little bird in front of the drone near the end of the episode. Be safe please.
The drone footage took my breath away at the conclusion. The desert is ominous, I don't always see what your trained eye sees, and often wonder how you manage to find the most modern, safe place to stay in the middle of absolutely no where! A swimming pool ~ !! What an oasis!
@@thetessellater9163 Namibia is a very popular tourist destination mainly for people from Europe and is well known and promoted. I expect the pandemic is keeping people away at this time. That swimming pool looks inviting but I know that in winter the temperature can fall well below freezing.
Staggering , staggering, staggering episode with incredible Drone footage, accompanied by the perfect sound track. Like something out of a big budget movie. This woman deserves her own series on Discovery Chanel. Should at least be nominated for some kind of movie award.
Speechless. I've used "epic" before. "Epic" was just the opening take. What can I say. The drone shots - perfect. Now I have to recover from the smile on my face of over 23 minutes. Wow.
Every episode seems to get better and better....the scenery, the geological lessons, the music, the lessons on motorcycling. Being a photographer, I pay attention to the composition, colors and light as well as the editing and music. Simply amazing. Now I am looking for a new episode everyday..... but do rest some Noraly. I received my t-shirt and tube scarf. I love them both. I got the same for a friend and he says that they are his favorites. I wanted to get this surprise for him because he turned me on to these amazing videos. It's like going to school and on vacation at the same time. Thank you Noraly.
Yeah, I could live there. No neighbors and no grass to cut. Just an occasional visitor every few years. As others have said, the drone footage is great.
Just beautiful scenery, especially when you were putting air in your tires. The place you were staying looks awesome. Everyone hit the thumbs up button…thanks for the ride.
Noraly, this is definitly one of the most beautiful videos you have made so far ! The images and the music are perfect ! It is very moving! Stay safe and thanks again for sharing these world wonders with us all
A David Attenborough without the expensive crew and vast equipment and travelling mostly on a very environmentally friendly machine instead of flying everywhere then criticising everyone else about global warming/climate change - Norally, for me, is doing a far better job in making the world and it's people, it's flora & fauna a beautiful place without being hypocritical, sanctimonious and duplicitous - there's another word but my brain is frazzled from the beautiful content I've just thoroughly enjoyed. Happy Birthday Norally
In the middle of the definition of "nowhere", next to a pile of rocks, there's a lodge... unreal, amazing... no better way of getting close to nature. I was in Namibia a few years back, re-visiting old memories from the war... what a magical place... "Itchy Boots", you have a unique way to bring a human back to it's roots! fantastic channel! Well done!
I have always been fascinated by Namibia. This episode definitely reinforces my conviction to visit it some day. Thanks, Noraly, for showing us around. The Namibian tourist board owes you ;-)
This country is absolutely gorgeous! And to think some are spending millions to establish a colony on Mars! What a waste! Prachtig werk Noraly! Hartelijk gefeliciteerd met jou verjaardag! God bless you!
Noraly my name is james and I have been following your journey for some time. I have to say I agree with you whole heartedly about the views Crossing the Namib Desert Eps -45 they where absolutly spectecular. I know I'm year behind but those views do not age, like a lot of the comments if it hasn't already happened you deserve an award of some sort for your photograhy it is magnifencent one clip of the place you stayed in with the Red Granite back drop beggers beleaf. Love your work & your journey and I understand your want for solitude . Some yrs ago we owned a small 5 ac place 45 mn out of the city, we made the mastake of moving back. that was 20 yr ago I can still hear the back ground noise of traffic & people. Take care stay safe my friend .⚘❤👍jf
Wow yet another video full of incredible footage the drone shots at the end are fantastic. Be honest how many wanted to see Noraly jump into the swimming pool at the end. This should be a national television series. Stay safe Noraly xxx
Really, really, REALLY, appreciate your taking the time and effort to setup and record your drone shots (05:03, 05:31, 10:16, 10:45, etc.). They are absolutely breathtaking and you are majorly AWESOME!
Noraly, I Have been with you sense season 1 Esp 5 this is one of the most epic videos yet. I never like to repeat what 40 other people have already said but time I must. I have a special place in my hart for you mainly because my wife is Dutch and you inspired me to get back into riding after a near fatal motorcycle accident .
It's amazing that there's A lodge in the middle of the vast Namib desert! Wow! Never cease to discover new things on your channel. Would be great if you could share the location of these accommodations as well in your description, in case one day some of us wants to come visit, following the itchy trails 😊. Anyways, Happy Birthday Noraly. Oh, we loving the cinematic ending on these last 2 videos!
In the video are enough hints to find these accommodations with a little help of google maps. I found Gästefarm Tiras in 2 min. Greenfire Desert Lodge took me half an hour because there are 2 locations where the C27 and D826 meet . The prices that pop up are the prices German tourists have to pay. Usually 1 million tourists a year , now a handfull. When you give them call 1 or 2 days in advance you can get a mindblowing deal. Searching for this is a learning adventure by itself. Next time it's up to you.
Generally what media shows about nature is greenary and snow capes of Europe and other asian countries but while watching your African series made me amazed how beautiful these deserts and mountains. Especially those drone shots in this video 😍😍😍
Stunning video, thanks! Sociable veawer bird nests is the name! My beautiful Namibia. You've shown me some incredible places that haven't seen before! Thanks again! 🙏❤️💐
I would’ve never thought there would be a lodge out in the Desert like that. I’m assuming it may be a hunting lodge. A truly beautiful area to relax the body and soul. I’ve followed you since India and you have taken me to some amazing places. Africa has really been a treat. Ride safe and have fun. 🇺🇸
Hi Noraly. A message for your supporters. I bought a pair of riding jeans this week and I bought Rev’it only because they help you. And also, your videography, editing and soundtrack is first class. If it was left to me I’d finish the day with half a dozen centre frame bike shots with empty foreground and fuzzy background. I don’t know what makes technically perfect cinematography but it’s really enjoyable to watch and that’s what matters. I hope your work gets recognised by someone in the game.
Completely alone in the desert. With a fantastic accommodation for yourself. And a mountain with incredible boulders of various minerals just behind. Congratulations! You deserve it 🙏🥰💪🏼
One of the most impressive videos, mixed with epic music and also with your gentle personality and smile, kept us stuck in the armchair.Thanks for sharing
That overly happy smile in your outro moderation was infectuous. Am smiles all over! Noraly: "This is the most incredible place I ever stayed!" Lodge: "I bet you say that to all the lodges… **sigh**" Have a happy birthday and a happy new year, Noraly! I already celebrated the day with some strawberries here. :oD
This brings so many memories for me that spend my childhood years in Namibia. Thank you very much and best wishes. Hope to show my wife Namibia soon. K
This clip just redefines “epic” to be EPIC. Fantastic. For info, a Boomslang (translated as tree snake) is an extremely venomous snake that specialises in hunting small creatures. They do not fall from a tree, rather they drop down out of a tree to surprise their prey. Saving grace for adult humans is that this snake has a fairly small mouth and would struggle bite anything other than a finger.

So clever to self-produce a scene like that. I let out a "Niiiiice" for that one.

Love it as well. Reminds me of the song Caravans by Mike Bat.

A David Attenborough without the expensive crew and vast equipment and travelling mostly on a very environmentally friendly machine instead of flying everywhere then criticising everyone else about global warming/climate change - Norally, for me, is doing a far better job in making the world and it's people, it's flora & fauna a beautiful place without being hypocritical, sanctimonious and duplicitous - there's another word but my brain is frazzled from the beautiful content I've just thoroughly enjoyed.
Happy Birthday Norally
Itchy - It is amazing that you make the most desolate places on earth interesting and beautiful!
So many wallpapers can come out of those stunning landscape drone shots! And you are glowing Noraly!
In the middle of the definition of "nowhere", next to a pile of rocks, there's a lodge... unreal, amazing... no better way of getting close to nature. I was in Namibia a few years back, re-visiting old memories from the war... what a magical place... "Itchy Boots", you have a unique way to bring a human back to it's roots! fantastic channel! Well done!
I have always been fascinated by Namibia. This episode definitely reinforces my conviction to visit it some day. Thanks, Noraly, for showing us around. The Namibian tourist board owes you ;-)
The drone shots really emphasis how insignificant we are in the vast landscape of earth. Beautiful. You find the most amazing places to stay.
We get the Drone , footage view but you get the best view most of the time as I see you fly , some sort of a glider.
This country is absolutely gorgeous! And to think some are spending millions to establish a colony on Mars! What a waste! Prachtig werk Noraly! Hartelijk gefeliciteerd met jou verjaardag! God bless you!
@@markmark2080 Agreed. Why not use those billions of dollars to make areas here on Earth (more) liveable?
"Run Forrest!" 😂😂😂
No other people and surrounded by nature... absolutely agree with you. Awesome...
Noraly my name is james and I have been following your journey for some time. I have to say I agree with you whole heartedly about the views Crossing the Namib Desert Eps -45 they where absolutly spectecular. I know I'm year behind but those views do not age, like a lot of the comments if it hasn't already happened you deserve an award of some sort for your photograhy it is magnifencent one clip of the place you stayed in with the Red Granite back drop beggers beleaf. Love your work & your journey and I understand your want for solitude . Some yrs ago we owned a small 5 ac place 45 mn out of the city, we made the mastake of moving back. that was 20 yr ago I can still hear the back ground noise of traffic & people. Take care stay safe my friend .⚘❤👍jf
Wow yet another video full of incredible footage the drone shots at the end are fantastic. Be honest how many wanted to see Noraly jump into the swimming pool at the end. This should be a national television series. Stay safe Noraly xxx
I echo all the sentiments expressed.
Really, really, REALLY, appreciate your taking the time and effort to setup and record your drone shots (05:03, 05:31, 10:16, 10:45, etc.). They are absolutely breathtaking and you are majorly AWESOME!
Rojer any idea about the title of those music
Namibia is a surprising country to explore. Glad you’re doing the ride.
These drone transitions are getting better and better. And the music choices! Giving me chills! 🤩
Absolutely Spectacular! When BBC Earth calls and offers you a job making documentaries for them, Please don't accept. Keep making them for us. Thanks
"Run Forest" made me laugh out loud!! We love to watch your adventures Noraly!
Noraly, I Have been with you sense season 1 Esp 5 this is one of the most epic videos yet. I never like to repeat what 40 other people have already said but time I must. I have a special place in my hart for you mainly because my wife is Dutch and you inspired me to get back into riding after a near fatal motorcycle accident .
Yes Jim, she is such an inspiration, wonderful to know you are riding again....may you have safe journeys.
It's amazing that there's A lodge in the middle of the vast Namib desert! Wow! Never cease to discover new things on your channel.
Would be great if you could share the location of these accommodations as well in your description, in case one day some of us wants to come visit, following the itchy trails 😊.
Anyways, Happy Birthday Noraly.
Oh, we loving the cinematic ending on these last 2 videos!
In the video are enough hints to find these accommodations with a little help of google maps. I found Gästefarm Tiras in 2 min. Greenfire Desert Lodge took me half an hour because there are 2 locations where the C27 and D826 meet . The prices that pop up are the prices German tourists have to pay. Usually 1 million tourists a year , now a handfull. When you give them call 1 or 2 days in advance you can get a mindblowing deal. Searching for this is a learning adventure by itself. Next time it's up to you.
Generally what media shows about nature is greenary and snow capes of Europe and other asian countries but while watching your African series made me amazed how beautiful these deserts and mountains. Especially those drone shots in this video 😍😍😍
Stunning video, thanks! Sociable veawer bird nests is the name! My beautiful Namibia. You've shown me some incredible places that haven't seen before! Thanks again! 🙏❤️💐
one of the best so far. a desolate but magnificent road with stunning landscape, just the way noraly likes it :)
One of your best videos so far, I enjoyed everything about it - especially the shots from the drone.
I would’ve never thought there would be a lodge out in the Desert like that. I’m assuming it may be a hunting lodge. A truly beautiful area to relax the body and soul. I’ve followed you since India and you have taken me to some amazing places. Africa has really been a treat. Ride safe and have fun. 🇺🇸
😲 wow that last lodge...just magnificent!!!
Hi Noraly. A message for your supporters. I bought a pair of riding jeans this week and I bought Rev’it only because they help you. And also, your videography, editing and soundtrack is first class. If it was left to me I’d finish the day with half a dozen centre frame bike shots with empty foreground and fuzzy background. I don’t know what makes technically perfect cinematography but it’s really enjoyable to watch and that’s what matters. I hope your work gets recognised by someone in the game.
Completely alone in the desert. With a fantastic accommodation for yourself. And a mountain with incredible boulders of various minerals just behind. Congratulations! You deserve it 🙏🥰💪🏼
One of the most impressive videos, mixed with epic music and also with your gentle personality and smile, kept us stuck in the armchair.Thanks for sharing
This video was so beautiful it brought tears to my eyes. What an amazing place. Noraly you and what you do is such an amazing Gift.
The young oryx was thinking: "I'm going to be on Noraly's channel!" and had to run with you for a while.
Aaaaaaaaa
I’ve gone back and re-watched this. The Namib desert is a treasure. Thank you so much for taking us on this wonderful journey.
That overly happy smile in your outro moderation was infectuous. Am smiles all over!
Noraly: "This is the most incredible place I ever stayed!"
Lodge: "I bet you say that to all the lodges… **sigh**"
Have a happy birthday and a happy new year, Noraly! I already celebrated the day with some strawberries here. :oD
Just stunning Noraly, again. That place is what one would call isolated.
Yep. It's the place to go to when you need some space !
Desolate, even.
This brings so many memories for me that spend my childhood years in Namibia. Thank you very much and best wishes. Hope to show my wife Namibia soon. K
Wow!... Spectacular scenery and excellent footage. Thank you so much 👍
NAMIBIAN DESERTS LOOKS OUT OF THIS WORLD; AND GOOD DRONE SHOTS TO COMPLIMENT THE VIEW.
Out of this world the music and the video both amazing.
I can’t wait for every video you post
Hello, ı have a question. Do you know which the music between 10.05 and 11.25?
This, dear lady, is stunning! and that last shot, with that music... simply the best. Thank you so much!
Happy birthday Noraly. This episode is yet another feather in your crown.
The last scene, with the sun disappearing behind the mountains...... speachless.
This clip just redefines “epic” to be EPIC. Fantastic.
For info, a Boomslang (translated as tree snake) is an extremely venomous snake that specialises in hunting small creatures. They do not fall from a tree, rather they drop down out of a tree to surprise their prey. Saving grace for adult humans is that this snake has a fairly small mouth and would struggle bite anything other than a finger.
