I'm turkish and I like these Kurdish people. That gesture what Muhammed did on 00:28:26:00 both hand on his forehaed means that you have a place on our head that(which is the most imporant part of human being) also means you are always welcome.
I was about to explain to noraly what the gesture meant while mohamed touched his forehead that's very top gesture one can show it meant big or kissing one forehead. A visitor is a special person in Islam teaching and followed by kindness both a very important to a Muslim. Thank you mohamed jazakallahu kheri bro
The look on Mohamed's face was priceless when you handed him the honey, Noraly. What a great ambassador you are! Thank you for sharing this beautiful country and people. ❤️
I love your adventures and the beautiful people you meet and also the beautiful countryside’s and scary roads/ trails you ride , I am a rider for more than 60 years now . May I say you have beautiful blue eyes 👀 and may god bless you and Frankie and keep you safe ..
He didn’t want to take it because he wanted to be the one offering hospitality - then he did, which was nice - and tapping on his forehead when she left - to me - meant “I’ll remember you” 😻
Welcome, it is our pleasure to have you come to Iraq, the cradle of civilizations. Brave Nouraleen. We are very excited to have you spread the news of Iraq to the world. Good luck.
As an Iraqi citizen, I thank you very much for publishing the bright side of Iraq and Iraqi Kurdistan. Everyone who publishes about Iraq publishes the dark side of it, but in reality, it is a place of security, stability, happiness, and a generous and loving people. I thank you very much, and my best regards to you.❤❤🇮🇶🇮🇶♥️♥️
I read the news and I feel bad, I'm worried and I wonder why humanity is so strange. I watch an episode of Itchy Boots and am happy that most people are kind, helpful and have a good heart. Thank you Noraly ♥
@@Riverdragon75 the media always made bad view abaout midle East, thanks a lot to mis noraly. She send message to the viewers who watching this video, the media so wrong about midle East ✌
@@nzsaltflatsracer8054 Telling someone to not watch TV or read too much news is some of the best advice one can give! They try to keep you in constant fear, because people that live in fear are easily controlable.
Went for tea,had a buffet 😅 Love it. May not know the native language, but the smile is the language everyone understands. Hoping you feel better. Appreciate you sharing your experiences with us. Be well Itchy Boots 😊
Noraly, fantastic video. Your off-road riding was on 'Hamilton's Road' which was made in 1920's by a NZ Royal Engineer Officer - Archibald Milne Hamilton. If you can read 'Road through Kurdistan' he tells the story of how he and the local Kurdish tribesmen built the road. It is an amazing story.
There's a Dutch saying: "Wie goed doet, goed ontmoet" (kindness begets kindness), and you, Noraly, embody that perfectly. As many viewers have mentioned, the news these days is often negative, so it's truly uplifting to experience the heartwarming hospitality of genuine people through your videos. While a few people in power may create chaos, ordinary people remain kind and generous. Thank you so much for taking us all along on this beautiful adventure!
Noraly thank for showing me this side of Iraq. As an American and post military service I’m so happy to see the peaceful side of this country. We did not do well there…very sad! I treasure your videos and reporting of locals and how you return their kindness! Shalom.
I thought you were just out of your mind when you signalled, whilst in Türkiye, that you were going to go through Iraq. I was just mortified and trembling for you. How gravely and pathetic we have been brainwashed, misled, and twisted to think the people of Iraq were savages and hostile to outsiders? The people are so charming, generous, friendly, and hospitable, I can’t believe my eyes. Thanks so much Noraly, for correcting the bad image most of us westerners had been having of Iraq. You bring the world together. Kudos!!
I will be in Greece this summer, on my bike, which I keep in France. Instead of coming home I am thinking about riding through the ME winding up in Thailand where my son may be living by then. I am concerned about the ME.
You see those puddles? In Morocco when the Atlas mountains I ran into puddles like that. Only problem is one of them was 3 1/2 feet deep but on the surface looked like everyone else.
I've found that most people are kind by default, and those that have lived through hardship are often even more kind by default. People just want to be happy, except those who seek power over anything else.
100%, most people are just good and don't have any wrong intentions. Its just the negatives that you hear the most about. It's why i hate the news since it feeds so much negativity. It's nice to see positivity and hospitality in all the different cultures.
Salam! No matter the politics of a country, the people - the restaurant owners, shopkeepers, farmers, office workers - are usually wonderful. I will admit that I' always slightly relieved to see a new Itchy Boots video; it means "our" Noraly is safe.
Get well soon! Your videos have opened my eyes to the beauty of this world and the kindness of people the world over. You are absolutely a world ambassador.
Exactly, tricking us into a war and make people believe that he/she is bad whilst these videos show an perfect example that 99% of the people in the world are only up to peace and love. 👍🏼
Iraq is beautiful, surprising and the locals are incredibly friendly. Pity that world conflict restricts tourism. Thanks for allowing us to see this country through your eyes. 👍
In an ever more xenophobic world, your videos are uplifting, heartwarming and perfectly illustrate we each have the capacity for love and kindness. To treat everyone as we wish to be treated isn't an abstract concept. You are a great ambassador of humanity and humility.
Because of the way the media in Germany reports on countries like Iraq, I often feel uneasy about them. But then I watch Noraly's videos and see how kind and welcoming the people there truly are. It’s incredible how she manages to paint such an authentic picture of the locals-so different from what we usually hear or see. It reminds me once again that we shouldn’t let ourselves be guided solely by the media. There’s so much more to these places than what’s typically portrayed, and Noraly shows how important it is to form our own perspective.
Most entertaining show on TH-cam, Television, or Movies!!! Noraly, you make me smile with every episode. You make me laugh with every laugh you make. Thank you for what you do to create your videos for us to experience the world through your eyes.
Those small human interactions, despite the language barrier, highlight how everyday people are genuine, generous and caring at their core. Bring us more of that, we need it to wash off our skepticism.
Whether it is the twinkle in your eye or the broad smile accompanied by a giggle you melt hearts where ever you go. Your next career could well be as an ambassador. The world would be at peace.
I just loved when you told the first guard "Kurdis, no" after he mentioned "Van Nistelrooy" - one of the greatest footbal player from Holland 😃😃 Greetings from Hungary! Love you, have a safe trip😃
You should be made official ambassador of the world since you have brought to light the good in so many places. I used to travel with an oil drilling company to the worst parts of the world, but always felt safer than I do in my own city as people with so little give so much and ask for nothing in return and the percentage of bad people is the same in your own town as it is in every other part of the world. Thank you for giving humanity hope and showing that.
So adventurous, I did some motorcycling too in Australia while ago, bought secondhand motorcycle in Darwin where I arrived from Holland, drove to Alice Springs, and Cairns, roads are very good, been there for 5 months, was in 1992. I am 70 now, I cannot afford a motorcycle, and I am sick too, lungcancer, and heartattack, so I am glad I can watch this series, thank you Noraly, the quality is very good.
the warm welcome in Iraq as well as in Turkey is a real eye-opener for me, so many prejudices regarding the people in and then specifically the men, they are an example for many people here and the hospitality is unprecedented a big big hug for the people there in Iraq greetings Marry from the Netherlands ❤️🙏
Good call Noraly, not to fly any drone in the area, which may have caused a lot of concern. And to the interaction with the family of Mohammed: giving back something other than money is so important, it shows people how much you care about them. I wish you a safe journey all the way!
Iraqi people are incredible - big shoutout from California! Mohammad and his family crew are unbelievable! And it's a killer view from your hotel room - that alone will heal you!
Evet ''Mezopotamya'' ve onun batısındaki ''altın hilal' dünyada ilk tarımın ve yerleşik yaşamın başladığı verimli topraklardan oluşuyor! Finikeliler, Sümerler, Urartulular, Hititler, Akadlar, Babilliler, Asurlular, Aramiler Ur'lular, Hurriler, Medler, Persler, Emeviler, Abbasiler, Selçuklular, İlhanlılar ve Osmanlılar uygarlıklarının damgasını vurmuşlardır. Şehir site devletleride M.Ö.ki yıllarda yerkürenin en çağdaş devletleridir. Sonuçmu; üzgünümki Araplardan sonra bu bölgeler uygarlıktan kopmuşlardır, bugünkü kargaşa bilimden kopuşun sonucudur.
Noraly touches hearts everywhere she goes. leaving a trail of broken hearted men. The more she travels, the more we see people are the same everywhere. Be safe.
Mohammed example is the main reason why travelling is so special. No landmarks, museums, beautiful nature, or anything....is the people like him that marks our lifes forever. Those moments became eternal. ❤
What I love & respect about Noraly is she doesn't make belittling remarks about the places or people . She understands the reason behind differences . Many documentaries made by westerners in less developed countries are full of such remarks ,arrogant in attitude. Enjoy the magnificent views.

Dear Noraly, get well soon. Please don't get sick again. Have a nice trip. I watch your videos with interest. Love from İzmir/Türkiye
Despite what we see and hear about the countries you visit it is clear to all that the everyday people you meet on your travels are very kind, generous, accepting and welcoming.
What lovely people in Iraq and although you feeling under the weather, you still remain the friendly, enthusiastic and sparkling lady, always smiling and appreciative.
Get well soon, Noraly. It’s amazing how generous and hospitable people are in these far reaching places like Kurdistan. Your genuine openness, simplicity, and cheer draws people towards you. God bless you, and all the people you encounter. Heal soon from whatever is bugging you. Hugs to Frankie ❤
Noraly, the fearless ambassador from Holland who goes to places and forms everlasting memories with the locals. Way to Go, Noraly!! People you met in the remotest part of the world will remember you and talk about you in their history lessons of a woman rider who once visited them carrying with her a warm smile.
I've said it before and will say it again - Noraly restores my faith in humanity. We see such horrible "news" from that area of the world but here we see the people. So gracious and caring. Thank you for sharing your journeys with us. As always, be safe, have fun, and we'll see you in the next video! 🏍
Thank you Noraly for taking us through Iraq. With all the news about conflicts in the region, the image I had in my mind was of life at standstill for the people of Iraq. But it is heartening to see that life goes on, and amazing to see the hospitality and love of the people of Iraq despite years of conflicts they have faced. I pray that you feel better soon and God bless you!
This is a heartwarming video. Everyone seems to be so hospitable and generous. Even though they can't communicate with you fluently, they make an effort to make you feel acknowledged and welcomed.
The case of the missing glove gave me a good giggle this morning. I needed that! 😂 Thank you Noraly and Frankie. Hope you feel better soon. Safe travels! 🇨🇦🧡
I have watched itchy boots traveling through Africa. Now I am watching her traveling through Iraq. People in these places are so warmful and welcoming. Makes you feel humanity is so alive in these parts of the world. It's the small gestures which lighten our hearts and spreads positivity in the world.
Your channel was recommended to me by a lovely couple I met while vacationing in France. I’m so glad for the recommendation. I just love your kind and adventurous spirit and I love seeing how men react to you. I had similar encounters while I was stationed in Central America in the late 90s. I was a crew chief on Blackhawk helicopters and at that time very few women did that job. I love your choice of travels to show the world even in these turbulent times kindness goes a long way. Thank you so much for what you do. I’m sending you good thoughts and blessings to get over that cold or flu quickly. Stay safe, and keep moving forward. 😊
The guard said Van nistelrooy actually football legend from holland. great video thanks for showing us about Kurdish people. love and big gratitude to the most welcoming people.
Noraly made me discover a little bit of your beautful Turkey !! We have few info about "inside Turkey" here, and your country is awesome and so beautiful !!!
I hope you get well soon Noraly. And thank you for the video. 🙏 i’m so glad all the men are so nice to you. ❤ You are a world ambassador. And teaching goodwill wherever you go.
Beautiful scenery! Yet again we see how genuinely lovely people really are compared to what the media portrays. Hope you've fully recovered, and feeling strong again Noraly.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Frankie is such a show stopper. She is a bloody cool bike with a ton of character and quite possible the most appropriate choice to ride around the world. I love her
Even in Iraqi Kurdistan they know Van Nistelrooy! Haha, that is what the man at the road block said... Wherever you are in the world, someone always knows a Dutch football player! Have a safe and good trip, Noraly, I enjoy your videos!
Awesome lady ! With that kind of friendly gesture and lovely smile , how can you say no for a lady like Noraly! She always touch the heart of so many local even us who just watching her vlog . Thanks for sharing and be safe !
Hi I am not from Kurdistan but I am very happy you are with visiting Kurdistan I love Kurdish people also I love your videos continue I am watching take care yourself thank you showing us Kurdistan love from Balochistan
Beautiful Noraly. I find it almost amazing that you find the most wonderful people all over the world. I would have expected the Iraqi people to be belligerent and wary after so many years of war and terror. You seem to find the most friendly people!
Hey Noraly. Spectacular views and mountain scenery, even without drone footage. Loved the reaction of Mohammed when you gave him the honey. Close to tears,I’m sure. Priceless. Hope you feel better soon and it doesn’t develop into anything more serious. Cheers and stay well. Dan ✌️🏍🇨🇦
It's so good to see people being so kind and good to each other in all parts of the world. Thank you, Noraly for showing us this human side of your journeys.
I really Liked this Video... gave it a BIG Thumbs Up, and I've been Subscribed down below for like 7 years! You were just a child when I first met you, lol. People still love you wherever you go, and it's because you love good people. Thanks for all the memories... AND HAVE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS wherever you may be! Happy Trails!
So thankful that you’re doing what you’re doing, but it’s more about HOW you do what you do - with kindness, joy, and inner resolve. And showing the world that places that have endured such hardship are beautiful and full of the most wonderful and generous people. What a beautiful insight. Thank you again!
Thank you Noraly for continuing these videos. Truly beautiful, and somehow it appears you capture the essence of global community more than any other travel series.
Keep well and hydrated NORALY. Such an intelligent, mature, well-educated tour guide. You are surely living your dream and at the same time allowing all who follow you, on that dream. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you Noraly for taking us with in parts of the world we were afraid of until a brave heart like yourself showed us otherwise. Please take good care of yourself. You’re part of the family of individuals I like now. Thank you for your work and for being you.
What views! To anyone watching this on their phone - STOP! Cast this onto your TV. You won't be disappointed! This footage deserves the biggest screen possible and is a real treat for the eyes.
The area is amazing! The scenery is so nice among the mountains! Great food and plenty of accommodating people. Thank you Noraly for bringing the world to us! Ride safe!
What a lovely introduction to the Kurdish people. Another group of people only known (previously) as a name in the news. Your shared videos help humanize our world in the very best way. Thanks!
Good morning from Missouri USA! Thank you for another stunning video Noraly. What wonderful people you introduce us to in every one of your videos. Stay safe and be sure to get enough rest Noraly. ❤ Take care until next week!
30:51 Noraly, you are the healthiest looking ‘sick’ person I have ever seen. Your smile and winning disposition NEVER LEAVES you. Once again you seem to meet the nicest people on your travels. It seems to me that many of the people you encounter certainly must know of you, at least because of the TH-cam channel. I do hope you have a swift recovery from whatever is ailing you, no fun travelling when you’re feeling unwell. We’ll be watching for good news on that front come Sunday…❤❤❤Rick
Hello, Noraly! Thank you, for bringing Kurdistan to me! If others are resonating to these videos as I am, I wouldn't be surprised to see an exponential increase in your viewers soon.
I was stationed in Kirkuk Iraq in 2004-2005 we were there when citizens had their first chance to vote and it's really great to see the Kurdish people thriving. Long Live Kurdistan!!!
There are Kurdish populations in Türkiye, Syria Iran and even Armenia, besides from Iraq. Are they all thriving? Or, do the US only protects the ones in Iraq because the Hussein gov. resisted the US? The biggest population concentration of Kurdish folks reside in Türkiye, as far as I know. Why the US does not support their fight for independence. Oh, wait! Türkiye is an NATO member. Never mind. My "bad"
Hi Noraly, thank you for sharing the beauty of Iraq that once into tragic history. I admire your adventurous tours there. You deserve to have an award - Friendship Ambassador. From now on, I consider you as my friend and I am a fan of yours. Keet it up and keep safe driving always.
wow you are so brave, am now hooked to watch every day your next adventure in this unseen part of the world. Get well soon, is important your health so take couple of days rest. Take care
Thank you, Noraly, for showing us the real, unfiltered world. ❤ Your TH-cam channel continues to break down the stereotypes we often hear about countries around the world. While you’ve been warmly welcomed in many places, the hospitality you’ve experienced in Iraq stands out as truly exceptional. Get some rest and stay well! P.S. - You, low on energy, is still more energy than what I have on a normal day 😂
Geweldig, hoe je met de lokale mensen omging, die je vandaag hebt ontmoet. En dan de rit door de kloof tussen de prachtige rotsformaties. Beterschap de komende dagen Noraly.
It's so special for you to show the incredible beauty and nice people in Iraq. My son served three tours over there during the war and was actually bombed, but we were so blessed because he received only minor injuries. The part I saw during the perilous times he saw that part of it was hard. This makes me feel so much better. Happy travels.
I'm turkish and I like these Kurdish people. That gesture what Muhammed did on 00:28:26:00 both hand on his forehaed means that you have a place on our head that(which is the most imporant part of human being) also means you are always welcome.
😎
I was about to explain to noraly what the gesture meant while mohamed touched his forehead that's very top gesture one can show it meant big or kissing one forehead. A visitor is a special person in Islam teaching and followed by kindness both a very important to a Muslim. Thank you mohamed jazakallahu kheri bro
Thanks from kurdistan ❤️🇹🇷
@@alimungirimohamed8034 Why don´t do that thy Muslim in Germany ?
It certainly was, Noraly is genuine and people get it. In my travels I have encountered many such Mohammeds❤
The look on Mohamed's face was priceless when you handed him the honey, Noraly. What a great ambassador you are! Thank you for sharing this beautiful country and people. ❤️
When 2 kind hearts collide ❤
He was already working on forgetting her and then she comes back to give him a present. How mean. 😂
I love your adventures and the beautiful people you meet and also the beautiful countryside’s and scary roads/ trails you ride , I am a rider for more than 60 years now . May I say you have beautiful blue eyes 👀 and may god bless you and Frankie and keep you safe ..

That`s how they are when they have guests over. Lovely down to earth people❤🙏

It’s funny when I saw that road I immediately wondered if it was part of the British Empire
I don't suppose it mentions what those regular square concrete pads jutting into the road were for.
Wow amazing, thanks for sharing that!
NZ . New Zealand.
Me from New Zealand. and NEVER have been told about that. Amazing thank you for telling

Yeah, the media always wants to portray other countries as bad people.
It's unbelievable very kind people of Iraq as compared to what we're fed in the world news, big up the people of Iraq.
I've found that most people are kind by default, and those that have lived through hardship are often even more kind by default. People just want to be happy, except those who seek power over anything else.

What I love & respect about Noraly is she doesn't make belittling remarks about the places or people . She understands the reason behind differences . Many documentaries made by westerners in less developed countries are full of such remarks ,arrogant in attitude. Enjoy the magnificent views.
Dear Noraly, get well soon. Please don't get sick again. Have a nice trip. I watch your videos with interest. Love from İzmir/Türkiye
Despite what we see and hear about the countries you visit it is clear to all that the everyday people you meet on your travels are very kind, generous, accepting and welcoming.
What lovely people in Iraq and although you feeling under the weather, you still remain the friendly, enthusiastic and sparkling lady, always smiling and appreciative.
Get well soon, Noraly. It’s amazing how generous and hospitable people are in these far reaching places like Kurdistan. Your genuine openness, simplicity, and cheer draws people towards you. God bless you, and all the people you encounter. Heal soon from whatever is bugging you. Hugs to Frankie ❤
Noraly, the fearless ambassador from Holland who goes to places and forms everlasting memories with the locals. Way to Go, Noraly!! People you met in the remotest part of the world will remember you and talk about you in their history lessons of a woman rider who once visited them carrying with her a warm smile.
how beautiful Iraq and Kudish people. Thanks Noraly for the video !
Why does everyone refuse to say Kurdistan? It’s an autonomous region- governed by the KRG. This isn’t Iraq, it’s rightfully Kurdistan.
I've said it before and will say it again - Noraly restores my faith in humanity. We see such horrible "news" from that area of the world but here we see the people. So gracious and caring. Thank you for sharing your journeys with us. As always, be safe, have fun, and we'll see you in the next video! 🏍
Thank you Noraly for taking us through Iraq. With all the news about conflicts in the region, the image I had in my mind was of life at standstill for the people of Iraq. But it is heartening to see that life goes on, and amazing to see the hospitality and love of the people of Iraq despite years of conflicts they have faced. I pray that you feel better soon and God bless you!
This is a heartwarming video. Everyone seems to be so hospitable and generous. Even though they can't communicate with you fluently, they make an effort to make you feel acknowledged and welcomed.
Amazing hospitality . Stop for tea and end up with a feast on the house. Wonderful. Get well soon Noraly , hope you don`t feel too too bad.
The case of the missing glove gave me a good giggle this morning. I needed that! 😂 Thank you Noraly and Frankie. Hope you feel better soon. Safe travels! 🇨🇦🧡
Lol, when editing is in on the joke!
I have watched itchy boots traveling through Africa. Now I am watching her traveling through Iraq. People in these places are so warmful and welcoming. Makes you feel humanity is so alive in these parts of the world. It's the small gestures which lighten our hearts and spreads positivity in the world.
Your channel was recommended to me by a lovely couple I met while vacationing in France. I’m so glad for the recommendation. I just love your kind and adventurous spirit and I love seeing how men react to you. I had similar encounters while I was stationed in Central America in the late 90s. I was a crew chief on Blackhawk helicopters and at that time very few women did that job. I love your choice of travels to show the world even in these turbulent times kindness goes a long way. Thank you so much for what you do. I’m sending you good thoughts and blessings to get over that cold or flu quickly. Stay safe, and keep moving forward. 😊
The guard said Van nistelrooy actually football legend from holland. great video thanks for showing us about Kurdish people. love and big gratitude to the most welcoming people.
As a Turk, I watch you with pleasure. I am grateful that you have visited my country. Love and greetings from Turkey :)
The journey and people throughout Turkjie was Epic! 😍🙏😎
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Noraly made me discover a little bit of your beautful Turkey !!
We have few info about "inside Turkey" here, and your country is awesome and so beautiful !!!
I hope you get well soon Noraly. And thank you for the video. 🙏 i’m so glad all the men are so nice to you. ❤ You are a world ambassador. And teaching goodwill wherever you go.
Beautiful scenery! Yet again we see how genuinely lovely people really are compared to what the media portrays. Hope you've fully recovered, and feeling strong again Noraly.
@@bridgetedwardslivelifefully so true. Her interactions are lovely.
@@essentialoilsbenefits 100% agreed 👍
Remember that these are Kurds, and the Kurdish people were victims of the war in Iraq.
The distortions created by major media are enough to make one avoid them. So negative. On the other hand, Noraly, so positive.
@@denjhill yup, you're so right.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Frankie is such a show stopper. She is a bloody cool bike with a ton of character and quite possible the most appropriate choice to ride around the world. I love her
Feel better very soon, Noraly. May your journeys be delightful. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with us!
Even in Iraqi Kurdistan they know Van Nistelrooy! Haha, that is what the man at the road block said... Wherever you are in the world, someone always knows a Dutch football player! Have a safe and good trip, Noraly, I enjoy your videos!
شمال العراق فقط
المشكلة هي أنك تفكر مثل حزب البعث، هناك حكومة إقليمية وحكومة إقليم كردستان KRG ، والمشكلة الأخرى هي أنك تصعد دائمًا إلى هناك.
Wesley Sneijderrrr😅
Awesome lady ! With that kind of friendly gesture and lovely smile , how can you say no for a lady like Noraly! She always touch the heart of so many local even us who just watching her vlog . Thanks for sharing and be safe !
Hello from Kentucky!Everyone is so friendly and accommodating! Hope you feel better soon.
I'm from Lexington. I'm out west now, traveling around and spending my retirement.
@ I’m in Lexington all the time.
Chill out Noraly, despite feeling below par, you treated us to an interesting run as usual. lovely people. 🕊💌 Liverpool UK
Hi I am not from Kurdistan but I am very happy you are with visiting Kurdistan I love Kurdish people also I love your videos continue I am watching take care yourself thank you showing us Kurdistan love from Balochistan
Beautiful Noraly. I find it almost amazing that you find the most wonderful people all over the world. I would have expected the Iraqi people to be belligerent and wary after so many years of war and terror. You seem to find the most friendly people!
Hey Noraly. Spectacular views and mountain scenery, even without drone footage. Loved the reaction of Mohammed when you gave him the honey. Close to tears,I’m sure. Priceless. Hope you feel better soon and it doesn’t develop into anything more serious. Cheers and stay well. Dan ✌️🏍🇨🇦
Noraly is sweet, she's got a smile for all the people she meets. 😊
It's so good to see people being so kind and good to each other in all parts of the world. Thank you, Noraly for showing us this human side of your journeys.
You are brave the media tells something else about this country. The scenery the people's kindness is something to admire
I really Liked this Video... gave it a BIG Thumbs Up, and I've been Subscribed down below for like 7 years! You were just a child when I first met you, lol. People still love you wherever you go, and it's because you love good people. Thanks for all the memories... AND HAVE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS wherever you may be!
Happy Trails!
Woohoo ! Always look forward to your uploads.
Breaking rules, loosing glove, having fun, fighting flue bug and always sharing with us ... Sopas.
Im so amazed at this entire series in Iraq. My mind is just racing at all the scenery. Im thankful you are being treated well❤
So thankful that you’re doing what you’re doing, but it’s more about HOW you do what you do - with kindness, joy, and inner resolve. And showing the world that places that have endured such hardship are beautiful and full of the most wonderful and generous people. What a beautiful insight. Thank you again!
For sure one of your top videos so far!
Noraly’s smile is so natural, sincere and good-hearted…
Thank you Noraly for continuing these videos. Truly beautiful, and somehow it appears you capture the essence of global community more than any other travel series.
Keep well and hydrated NORALY. Such an intelligent, mature, well-educated tour guide. You are surely living your dream and at the same time allowing all who follow you, on that dream. Thanks so much for sharing.
This was an amazing video, warm and funny too.
Interesting to see how Iraq people are so welcoming…
It always amazes me .. the generosity of people around the world
a kind person like you always meet kind people ....
helo to Iraqi from Indonesia
9:03 he say Van Nistelrooy.... a football player from holland :)
Good morning from 🇰🇪Kenya i have watched almost every video of you... You are the greatest explorer and youtuber of all time...
Thank you Noraly for taking us with in parts of the world we were afraid of until a brave heart like yourself showed us otherwise. Please take good care of yourself. You’re part of the family of individuals I like now. Thank you for your work and for being you.
The best videos from TH-cam and knowing before watching it’s gonna be fun 😊
What views! To anyone watching this on their phone - STOP! Cast this onto your TV. You won't be disappointed! This footage deserves the biggest screen possible and is a real treat for the eyes.
I have watched it on 4k big TV 😊😊😊
On Wednesday's I usually watch on my work break and then I watch again when I get home. Definitely super awesome on a big television.
I'm watching it on my phone. ;)
Some of us are on night shift and can't go past tablet screen but of cos it's a lot better on a big screen✌️
No I have a samsung smart tv😢😢😢
The area is amazing! The scenery is so nice among the mountains! Great food and plenty of accommodating people. Thank you Noraly for bringing the world to us! Ride safe!
Mohammad almost cried when you went back and gave him honey. What a genuine interaction and lovely people. Sopas Noraly .
What a lovely introduction to the Kurdish people. Another group of people only known (previously) as a name in the news. Your shared videos help humanize our world in the very best way. Thanks!
Good morning from Missouri USA! Thank you for another stunning video Noraly. What wonderful people you introduce us to in every one of your videos. Stay safe and be sure to get enough rest Noraly. ❤ Take care until next week!
Good people find good people.
30:51 Noraly, you are the healthiest looking ‘sick’ person I have ever seen. Your smile and winning disposition NEVER LEAVES you. Once again you seem to meet the nicest people on your travels. It seems to me that many of the people you encounter certainly must know of you, at least because of the TH-cam channel. I do hope you have a swift recovery from whatever is ailing you, no fun travelling when you’re feeling unwell. We’ll be watching for good news on that front come Sunday…❤❤❤Rick
Wonderful day. Mohammed was truly moved by your friendlyness. Great scenery today. Get well soon!!🙏
Feel better Noraly. No work!. Don't worry about us. We will be here when you're feeling better.
Hello, Noraly! Thank you, for bringing Kurdistan to me! If others are resonating to these videos as I am, I wouldn't be surprised to see an exponential increase in your viewers soon.
Thank you for taking us along with you on your adventures. You're so brave!!
Can we talk about how beautiful it is that gas station attendants wear blazers in Iraq! What a dignified people.
I was stationed in Kirkuk Iraq in 2004-2005 we were there when citizens had their first chance to vote and it's really great to see the Kurdish people thriving. Long Live Kurdistan!!!
There are Kurdish populations in Türkiye, Syria Iran and even Armenia, besides from Iraq. Are they all thriving? Or, do the US only protects the ones in Iraq because the Hussein gov. resisted the US? The biggest population concentration of Kurdish folks reside in Türkiye, as far as I know. Why the US does not support their fight for independence. Oh, wait! Türkiye is an NATO member. Never mind. My "bad"
Hi Noraly, thank you for sharing the beauty of Iraq that once into tragic history. I admire your adventurous tours there. You deserve to have an award - Friendship Ambassador. From now on, I consider you as my friend and I am a fan of yours. Keet it up and keep safe driving always.
wow you are so brave, am now hooked to watch every day your next adventure in this unseen part of the world. Get well soon, is important your health so take couple of days rest. Take care
Thank you, Noraly, for showing us the real, unfiltered world. ❤ Your TH-cam channel continues to break down the stereotypes we often hear about countries around the world. While you’ve been warmly welcomed in many places, the hospitality you’ve experienced in Iraq stands out as truly exceptional. Get some rest and stay well!
P.S. - You, low on energy, is still more energy than what I have on a normal day 😂
Noraly, you are a legend
Love your adventures so far!
Geweldig, hoe je met de lokale mensen omging, die je vandaag hebt ontmoet.
En dan de rit door de kloof tussen de prachtige rotsformaties.
Beterschap de komende dagen Noraly.
It's so special for you to show the incredible beauty and nice people in Iraq. My son served three tours over there during the war and was actually bombed, but we were so blessed because he received only minor injuries. The part I saw during the perilous times he saw that part of it was hard. This makes me feel so much better. Happy travels.
Your travels thus far have both opened my eyes and restored my faith in humanity - I do hope you are feeling much better soon.
