😅yes that nearly made me cry

Agreed

💯💯💯💯💯

"you are safe with us" , are the best words to hear for a woman in this situation !!🌿

That was my feeling too! Respect!!

Indeed

It is great that he was there and found a simple solution!

he's a man. wired to solve REAL problems.😀😀😀😀😀

It's a button lol, not that hard to figure out. What's not good is that she wasn't ready to use this fix. If the bike stalled and she needed to get out quick, that's it...

@@WiseWikwisest answer on this post! Lots of ignorance in her posts by people who really lack real world experience.

I suspect the guy probably owns a motorbike. As soon as he started fiddling with the switch I knew he was going to find a fix.

@@Darubini2 In Africa, most of the youth know their way around motorbikes, it is their primary way of transport.

That’s guy was an angel at the right time

Most people dont want to know anything other than what they have been told to think :( Itchy boots has inspired me to learn how to ride a motorbike and Africa has always called loudly to my soul so I plan to make it there and meet all of the incredible people there who have hearts open instead of too much of the western world has closed their hearts and forgotten they have a soul and only want to know what they can get from other people.

I find that sad to hear. I’m British, have travelled to every continent (except Antarctica) and live in Asia. I have never felt anything close to the feeling I got in Africa anywhere else. It was a sense of being where I was supposed to be. From the animals to the people to the red earth, I loved my time there and have told my 7 year old daughter all about it and we plan to visit together one day. The hard part is choosing where as there are so many countries I wish to see. Be rightly proud.

I can only said it is well

I'm also African and not black, but what you are saying is so true man. Quite sad

Unfortunately many people live their lives with closed minds and cold hearts.

Words of Hope.

Definitely, that was welcoming words to Noraly’s ears!

That's really deep ❤

We're born kind

Yeah and those words came from the Chef is the village himself beautiful

We all have to be like that as Africans we don't throw anything away and we find ways to fix. I got some washer and dryer my neighbor put to the cab 10 years ago I took them in repaired the dryer by replacing a sensor and some belts rebalanced the washer. They are still running today and he has bought 2 sets since he trashed his. I alway make fun of him when he passes by

True

and the best part is that none of them even looked in her bags, they just wanted a photo

Why misbehaving? They asked and she told them to go ahead. Nothing wrong with that?

😅😅😅😅😅

Implication being, you are not safe without us. Think about it.

@@davidmende4438 what are you on about....

@@davidmende4438 Not necessarily.

And sharing whatever food they have with a stranger passing through ❤❤

​ Negative Norman, all doom and gloom, struggles to see positivity in life, always searching for ways to discredit goodness.

I did too! Such wonderful people!

"Bon appétit !?" pour le matin prochain ? Je l'espère.... ;-) 🤔

We all did ❤

YOU ARE SAFE WITH US ....

We Africans are a knowledgeable people, I leave in the united Arab Emirates where most companies will prefer hiring Africans because of our hardworking spirit and resilience just that the pay are so low

Because of the challenges of getting the proper tools to make things work we tend to be very innovative and create solutions to fix things.

Well motorbikes are the main way these people get around when they need to go somewhere outside of the village. So most of the guys there are going to be pretty familiar with how motorbikes work and how to fix the various issues that can occur, especially since they often lack the proper tools and parts for the repairs.

​@@SteveSmith88thanks for acknowledging that you're kind

Because the plastic button is just a mechanism to push down on the tiny button inside. Noraly with her training around big geology rigs would have figured it out eventually too.

Apparently kindness wont pave your roads.

​@seananon4893 we've adapted that way pliz and we like it this way

@@esphoneochengo so you folks prefer to not have infrastructure/economic development and just stay as primals?

@@kevinvjanc you know nothing about them so don't judge

In the rural areas that Noraly travels, she always finds herself in a situation where good people are close by to help her!

God bless Africa in Jesus name amen

Not sure how factual thay statement is, but if I t makes you feel better than go with it. Forget about Gobekli Tepe, underwater ruins found numerous places in the world etc.

@@georgebricker1010 Sorry having missed something in the chronology of human history . But as you are busy with that I focus more on the human aspect of Noraly's travel encounters. Good luck.

nah, all life came from Hawaiians. Look it up in the kumulipo. (except the Chinese, they had their own thing going on).

​@georgebricker1010 his opinion,u want to tell him that he doesn't know what he knows anymore?

❤❤❤❤❤

Of course Noraly also avoids known areas where the people might not be so friendly to strangers. If everywhere was safe there would be no need for the chief to say "you are safe with us".

​@@Dave-sw2dmthat is a silly way ot thinking. She is safe because some part of the country is having rebels that are fighting the central African Republic government.

@@jallojallow9664 , reread what I wrote. We are saying the same thing except I added that she is knowingly avoiding conflict areas.

yes that is really cool !

I absolutely agree with you! It was such a touching moment, opening my heart!

Especially as they were paid ...

@@mikanakayama-ss5co Noraly always pays if they will let her. She just doesn’t always show it.

Noraly was very fortunate to have help from such kind people! The younger boys were very interested in what they were doing.

They all set goals for themselves to get one..... they'll be staring at that picture for weeks

Mopanie wurms om te eet.

Boredom in the military is a real thing... can you imagine when a spaceship rides into town like that.

😂😂😂😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰

I am now addicted to watching you! You have a very positive spirit, humble person. And everywhere you go, people can feel your vibe. Keep it up. You are best ambassador for travel updates. Moreso for Africa. Go Itchy boots. Go Africa a continent full of love, kindness and humanity❤

I flunked mind reading in College but I will say as she has become somewhat “famous” on UKposts and internationally I doubt many would attempt to mess with her…

​@@drgonzo4714your imagination is insane. Get some professional help. Seriously

You should fear your government, not these people. These people are just living in their villages, minding their own business. They are more afraid of you than you are of them. They are not the ones invading your country with their army and doing what not.

Noraly you have more Mud than you need,bring back some for your compatriots Farmers???

Very well said my friend 👏

We do have roads. She just likes adventure. If she goes on asphalt it won't be that interesting to you. I'm sure you are eager to watch her next video.

She rides mostly in remote areas, not in the cities, so you won't see much tarred roads . Also, most people are not aware that asphalt isnt so great for tropical regions. It's a major cause of floods. The ground needs to be organic to soak up all the rain we get. Many people don't understand how much rain we get in West-Central Africa. You only have to come here to experience it for yourself.

Tell africans about their ORPHANAGES are very low standards.

Snap nog steets niet waarom je deze videos maakt en waarom je deze reis maakt

Some people just like adventure. Most of us would never see this part of Africa with out Noraly. She does a great service for us. Sadly there is nothing she can do about the pathetic infrastructure we see here, or the corrupt top officials that keep their people down.@@Just-Michael-NL

Yes........ My prejudices are revealed to be nonsense.....These people represent their countries VERY WELL.

corruption

I don’t trust people who are overly kind

@@mementomori5374 You get trust issues

@@mementomori5374In Africa, most will be genuine, a few will want to swindle you.

A lot could be better, mainly leadership.

🇿🇦 😊😊

That is why Africa got colonised we are weak at heart and just give out kindness to our enemies

There was never any stereotype of " dark heart of Africa". It was called the " Dark Continent" because it was unexplored by Europeans. Simple. Africans have been the most accommodating to foreigners of any other group of people worldwide. Reason why they lost so much of their land and culture to colonizers.

That old myth comes from Westerners.

An African on tour of Europe would receive same treatment.

And he was so excited when he was given a tip. May be he thought he was just helping. Pristine world not contaminated with capitalism. I did not see anyone begging. common in more developed parts of Africa

Commonly called an "African fix" and when one has next to nothing to work with one quickly learns to make do.

It's called common sense

​@@-W8WHAT so why can't noraly do it? Pls give credit. They are rural bikers on that road and have never fallen like noraly did so many times. These are real talents in africa

​​​@@deusdedittusubira315 it is capitalism that brought poverty to Africa. Before the advent of colonialism no one was poor in africa. They all had shelter, food and clothing. You could see in rural Africa largely un affected by capitalism no one begged noraly for arms. Rather they fed and housed her completely free of charge.

But of course we're kindness personified

Well done that you're still riding ! Safe travels ❤

Ride safe my friend! I’ve been riding over 55 years now and will be 70 this spring. I don’t plan to quit anytime soon!

Wish you many more riding years in good health. from a rider of 27years aged 49

She is off the road alright- literally!

I meant off the map,not rd,but that is true too!

You're probably more likely to get robbed or hurt in your own country.

Yeah, NL isn't what it used to be

OmG there are those rubbery worms again...My friend says he would prefer the deep fried grasshoppers 🦗 🦗 He was in Camaroon many years in the 80's. He deep fried porcupine in Cameraroon then. He said it was gamey but like pork.

Comparto plenamente lo que dices!! Gente muy buena en todo África! También allí en República Centroafricana!!!❤ "Con nosotros estás a salvo "😢❤❤❤ Desde Argentina sigo a Noraly, cuando partió de nuestra Patagonia antes de la Pandemia. Es un ser de luz!!❤🤗🙋🏻‍♂️

If one were to believe social media, we'd conclude that the only "good people" look a certain way, or speak a certain language. Thanks Noraly for showing that the true human spirit transcends race and location. Wishing you a safe journey from here in Nigeria.

That’s her energy! I think she knows how the Universe will always come through. We should all keep her attitude and the same applies to us all!

You CANNOT survive in that kind of environment without your sense of ingenuity being highly developed, else, you mostly cannot get anything done because most things are not ideal.

i mean its basic sense, to push the switch, even with a stick to see if start, good thing it was a spring loaded rod switch

And I have to say that she's the strongest woman in the world to do what she does and never fear anything God bless her heart ❤️

Alaska is a very tough motorcycle to endure the unknown conditions and just keep on going! Noraly takes excellent care of Alaska!

hello, what is the model of the motorcycle?

​@@WillysPerformanceCycleCtrhello, what is the model of the motorcycle?

@@n_c_1513 ….Alaska is a Honda CRF300 Rally

Good thing that they did ask for permission to get photos.....

@@preciousbanda5364 Yup, I think they asked like 2 or 3 times. Covering their 4ss in case the dude in the office hears about it!

It's the Dutch way

that's cordiality.

"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" is understated in how Noraly treats others. And how she is treated BY others! (Forgive the biblical reference, but she sure puts the "Christians I know to shame!)

@@jaykb6587 so true, agree with this! Nothing to forgive, That's what Jesus left us as the 'golden rule'.

⁠​⁠@@jaykb6587 just had to take the opportunity to bash Christians, which says more about you than it does Christianity. People are not perfect no matter how they worship

Exactly how I felt and you worded it so well .

Thank you

So well said!

She knows Kenya alright. She's been in Kenya before...as a backpacker. Long before she started her UKposts channel.

When they are not BLACK

⁠@@HephzibahYahudah-ow2thWut? Are you implying they are more willing to help foreigners than locals?

​@@NameName-ll2yxDon't mind these weirdos. Africans are warm and friendly to all. Skin color irrelevant

I lived in Nigeria for 9 yrs (from age 2 to 11), and Africans were always so friendly, polite, nice, and wonderful people.

The dish might be Mopane Worms (Emperor Moth Catepillar). Crunchy and mushroomy? Can't wait to see what Itchyboots thinks!

​@@spiritusinfinitus🤮... Even the insects that are Leviticus creator made to eat.. Locust! Don't think I could woah!

Really amazing! 👏 👏

Noraly has transformed me into an addict. I think it is that front camera perspective that makes me feel I am the one riding. Very exiting! I can barely sleep whilst waiting for the next episode.

Well said

To be fair he didn’t fix anything, he showed her how to start it without the button in place. It’s still broken.

So true ❤

@@mj_aussie_coaster_travels8310 he put it back together so she could start it up again, getting her to her out of that forest. I don't understand your point. your comment has a negative energy.. be positive it feels better 😁

@@lf1496 I confirm what the other commenter said that the fellow did not fix the switch. However, he did something at least as valuable in the circumstances -- he took a look at this bike that was a type he surely never saw before, and after briefly attempting to reinstall the broken-off switch button, he assessed that it was not easily going to go back into place. But he understood the principle of the thing and figured out that all that was needed was a pointy object to poke the internal switch mechanism, and that would get Noraly going again. So a good solution given the conditions, and prospects for a better fix when Noraly gets to a town.

You nailed it!

I used to live in Turkey and the village folks wee extremely friendly

Same in Brazil.

Well said

Isn't she wonderful and her charisma and courage God bless her heart ❤️

We're kindness personified

Yeah isn't she so beautiful and such charisma and courage God bless her soul In Jesus name amen 🙏

Speak for yourself only!

​@@TC-dw6wgI am speaking for myself. I hope you are not one of those people who leave the west to a developing country with western arrogance.

But I've seen her go into some desert areas of Africa and there's nobody for miles and if she was to fall down and hurt herself she would be in a little pickle you know I think if she had a three-wheeler with the two wheels in the back with big old nobbies she would never fall down or get hurt she just need to keep her speed down

@@kirkslayden834 I think the issue is to try and find a place before it gets dark. That apart of the world it gets dark the same hour about 18:00 hours.

Oh me. This is really like a film, at least to me watching it on my phone 🫣💜

Now you can go back further and watch season 6. Incredible. Peace!

@@jasonzerbini2375 yes, at the moment I am catching up on the videos in the 4 month break… just finished Spain… very nice.

Why wouldn't she? She makes money on a permanent sight seeing trip.

​​@@seananon4893that's right UKposts pays big money some of these people that make 10 million views get millions of dollars God I wish I had the brains to do what she does because I don't know anything about computers I'm definitely an idiot haha 😳😜

LMAO same, and believe me, I tried. Im just not as comfortable as I thought I would be walking in public filming myself, that little experiment lasted an entire 4 hours.@@kirkslayden834

Im guessing you hacked her bank account and got a rundown of all her banking transactions? Now im trapped between calling the NSA to report you, and telling Noraly about this mess you have caused.@@manuforti-jo9nl

Blessings to you dear Oregonian from a Washigtonian

I lived in Oregon a short time but I loved it but I grew up in California and in 78 I went to Oregon and left around 1980 and I worked at FMC making box cars along the Willamette River I really miss that job but when Reagan came into office I couldn't get a job washing dishes so I was forced to go back to California and work for my father but it gave me a new life and a new experience but after struggling most of my life I finally own a home in Apple valley California and I thank God everyday that I'm still alive and living pretty good God bless our world 🌎 God bless America in God we trust in Jesus name amen

​@@pamelaroberts-aue7984so here's another story my sister lives in Washington and she moved there around the beginning of the seventies and she bought this fairly new house for 37,000 unbelievable and now to buy a house a fairly decent one you're looking at paying over $500,000 it's just unbelievable the life we live in this country now it's impossible for a regular family to make it on only one person working in the household so I met a pretty good woman and when I moved up to Apple valley she paid off our house in 2020 and a doctor killed her and the medical board of California does absolutely nothing but what she left me was a house paid off and the money I get with social security and her money too because of her death I have to thank God everyday for what I have oh and another thing way back in the seventies when I was up there I drove in some places on the Washington side that blew my mind and I always wish that I could have traveled everywhere in Washington state because it's so beautiful there but also Oregon has some beautiful places to hopefully before I leave this earth I'll have a chance to go there again God bless in Jesus name amen
