- In this episode I am riding to a cattle farm in Namibia, where I help herd the cows for the afternoon! As you do of course! This is another stunning and remote part of Namibia where the nearest town consists of just a petrol station, shop and hotel!

My goodness, the ending drone footage was just absolutely stunning!! Then top it off with the music you chose, wow. To think someone can look at the most desolate, vast area of this land and say this is going to be a fantastic cattle farm boggles my mind. Most of us would look and say get me out of here. In my opinion your channel is one of the best on TH-cam for entertainment as well as educational. Fantastic job young lady. Fantastic!!
And I remembered the movie Out of Africa
"Young lady". 🤣 😂 😁 😉
Agreed. Brilliant 👍
@@matty-ud7dx so did I 🫶🏼
@@matty-ud7dx I think that's what she was going for
The final drone footage - ABSOLUTELY STUNNING.
My feelings exactly.
Yes just beautiful
Yes , and music fits.
@@jamesbarrie2458
What beauty??? The drone recording shows even more how desolate that place is, all desert.
@@DonauweIIe Are you blind?
I live in Namibia and regards the country as one of the most beautiful on earth. The way that you capture the " moment" and are able to convey the serene pristine beauty of nature is extraordinary. The mixing of music and landscaping footage is just beautiful.
Be safe and I cannot wait for the rest of your videos.
Does anyone know what the logo at :36 is?
@@antoniostuurmann6496 LOL i got that .... does it have a meaning ?
@@journeyman553 •I will try my best, LOL, itchy boots "IS" Noraly, it's her channel-TH-cam,Instagram,Facebook. In my opinion Noraly chose "itchy boots" because she is a very adventurous person & wants to see the world, so she has "itchy boots" 😉 to Travel & better yet to take us with her! That's the "meaning". Pretty 😎 (I hope I answered your question 😁)
@@CharleyMK9867 "(I hope I answered your question 😁) " LOL not really, but maybe you're just not that good at answering stupid questions. I get "itchy boots" but at first i didn't get the logo until i saw it morph into spelling itchy boots.

There's something magical that happens when I watch your videos as if I'm being transported to another time, another place where most of today's world issues and problems seem to fade in the distance. I think one day you'll be responsible for world peace and appreciation of each other's different cultures as humans more than any politician could ever hope to achieve. You seem to capture the essence of what we are all looking for, longing for!! Words can do no justice to what you are accomplishing!
I completely agree 🫶🏼✊
💯% agree!
When you're a Namibian and you've never been to this places but plan to because of Noraly.
That's wonderful Otja N Ngaisiue! I hope you do get a chance to visit those places,just stunning!
She is so amazing. Love her happy positive attitude no matter what she encounters. ❤❤❤
Me watching in botswana wanting to visit now 😅
Not only Noraly becomes a Namibian farmer for a day, but also manages to provide us with some glorious music which complements so well with the stunning drone photography. Thank you Itchy Boots.
I love how the little white pup immediately identifies Noraly as a soulmate and hops up on her lap. 😊
Your content is soo informative and beautiful....and thank you for visiting NAMIBIA 🇳🇦 and AFRICA at large ❤ 💙
1: Last time it was geology, now we're in the cow herding business… Itchy Boots is a topic to include all topics!
2: "The most random collection of foods, no idea how to make a meal out of that!" -Welcome in a bloke's misery! That's daily routine here! :op ^^)
3: You have changed your way of selecting music it seems. And you made a big step ahead with it. Those drone shots of the farm at the end were beautiful, but the music made them half magical. Very, very, very nice! :oD
@chilinad You chose to delete your reply to my comment, but the email notification with it included did still reach me. Yes, Sir David Attenborough's comment would add a degree of nobility. But then, wouldn't it be nobility squared? I think the very Noraly Schoenmaker is currently building her own skill and legacy of presenting beautiful pictures of our beautiful planet and our wonderful fellow humans with her own loving and respectful parallax added.
She already achieved a basically cinematic quality of pictures and, with the recent change in style of music playing with landscape scenes, a degree of emotional impact of the scenes that is just remarkable. I guess Sir David himself would sit back and watch and listen, not wanting to disturb the Itchy Boots original. There's no one better at what she's doing than Noraly herself.
As a biker myself, I continue to be impressed at the performance and endurance of this little Honda. Perhaps because it is so light. I am sure that bigger bikes would have shaken themselves to pieces by now. I just shows that you don't need a big budget to have big adventures.
My R1200 GSA held up just fine in Namibia though ...
I wonder how much fun I could have on these roads with my 400kg Yamaha?
-250s are excellent off road and on. Years of race, desert sand, mountain, and commute. No limits to logical, reasonable transportation,.... interspersed with unreasonable ;}
There isn't a better bike without going heavy 😉
Jerry Paladino, Police mc trainer, advises "Do NOT take your Harley on dirt!"
Start of video, smiling, happy Noraly, long shadows in the morning sun. End of video, smiling, happy Noraly, long shadows in the evening sun. In between, 300km of stunning countryside, lots of hard riding, filming for our enjoyment and herding cattle in the heat and dust. Who else could do this? Only Noraly. Thank you from us all.
Beautiful, beautiful Namibia : I hold you in my heart like my country South Africa
Thank you Noraly, for showing off Namibia to the world.
Josua. I only spent a week in Namibia, but I loved every minute of it. The people were some of the friendliest I have ever met. I would like one day to bring my children to see it.
I want move there now.😂😂
I just said to my husband, “ Namibia is a really special place.”
What a beautiful place
I was trail riding with a couple of friends yesterday and you came up in conversation more than once. You are a world influencer and we all appreciate you for it.
I was at a party and met a random guy who loves bikes. He said he follows you and we clicked immediately. I have never ridden but I love Africa
Madam u try India 🇮🇳 travel by bike ride it’s my request ,please travel plan 😊🙏

Sheck seson 1 then she buy a royal einfeald in India and drive it home to Nedelands.
When she misses something she is honest to mention it. Such a frankness. A must avoid road for us is a must ride for Noraly. And what appears to be a barren landscape is a treasure for the geologist in her. Kudos Noraly
The Farmer keeps speaking Afrikaans with you and it's so funny. And I understand what he's saying and he's really trying his best with the English. You'll still meet a lot. Lol..😀😂
True 😂😂😂
I tried speaking Afrikaans with Dutch speakers too. I must say I could not understand them much.
Holy FFs, that outro was something else... could have been the start of one epic movie!
Wow!
It's Central Australia but it's in Namibia. And it is magnificent!
No, it’s Namibia.. in Namibia 🤣
I guess wanted to say the place look exactly like central Australia
Where most people feel totally hopeless and desperate, Itchy Boots enjoys the ride, laughing and being happy! Godspeed girl!
I ❤️you Noraly.. safe travels in the motherland Namibia!! Stumbling upon your channel was the best thing ever..
your drone shots are getting better every episode.. beautiful music too.
I concur, Noraly, the drone captures the wonderment of the land, and your music is magical....you've got very good taste!
Drone footage at the end is out of this world fantastic love also the human interaction know the country by knowing the people who live there. Big thumbs up 👍👍( troostrijke video na ons roemloze oranje avontuur ⚽️)
Ach...wat stelt Oranje voor als je dit ziet?
another thing I learned on this channel: when Noraly says "see you in the next video", dont turn it off yet! sometimes the best is saved for last!! what an awesome episode again!!
This was not something I expected. Namibia is much more beautiful than I thought. And I must add that it's so nice to see how friendly and inviting the locals are. It seems to be the same wherever you go. And the last footage on the sunset it's just aaaww! So beautiful!
The closing drone video with the musical accompaniment was stunning. You have brought us so far and am looking forward to what is next.
I could watch the drone vids all day...
There is nothing I can add to the many comments here, except to say that now that I have gone through all of your previous adventures, your skills of photography, editing and commentary have grown to an exceptional level. Mostly, I want to thank you for taking us all along for the ride.Brilliant!
Every. Single. Video. Is. A. BLAST!
Thank you so much for sharing the world with us! Appreciate it! And please stay safe.
another day of hard work Noraly, but you gave us absolutely beautiful views of a lovely country. Thank you for all of this, and enjoy your stay there
Hi Noraly! Greetings this morning from Colorado. Safe riding! Really enjoying your hard word on the videos. So few appreciate the effort. It's not just fun riding (although that is a part of it) it takes a lot of work and skill. Thank you.
Thank you for taking me through my country, I never got a chance to explore 🇳🇦 but thanks to you
I am planning to start traveling around my country as from next year. So beautiful sceneries and amazing landscapes. Namibia is so 🔥👌😍
Grew up in Namibia in the 80's and now live in Canada. Namibia is a spectacular place of indescribable, sometimes completely isolating beauty. I miss it dearly.
Thanks Noraly for the ride 👍🏻😎
Just when I'm thinking "Wow what a desolate and miserable looking place", Noraly says "I'm so happy I chose this road, it's so beautiful".
She has completely lost it, hasn't she? :D
yes thing depends on the eyes that see 😉
I think she has no fear.
Elaaaaaa
@@andersfalck6633 I've been following Noraly since India. This African trip is the most boring one I've seen - even the landscape is boring. Sorry, this isn't to my taste
That "drone" music at the end is just like from ... Once upon a time in Namibia
I too immediately felt that Ennio Morricone vibe in the music.
@@TerraPosse me too definitely ennio morreconi vibe to it. Beautiful 🎶
The day old calf is so adorable
Agree with Thor8640..... The final drone footage plus the music selected, could win an Photo Oscar!!!
The Dutch are conquering the world - Max Verstappen, Dafne Schippers … and now Itchy Boots! Love your website Noraly, will check it out some more.

Also Pilot Bambi, spend some time flying in South Africa
...and Goldmember!
@@macclift9956 Unfortunately, crime is a global problem.
Max verstappen? You're joking....
The ending of that video was so beautiful!!!!!! The whole thing was fun
I absolutely love Namibía, lived there, had my first child there and been back a few times. You have to go there to experience the land , its people, the silence and beauty of the country.
Wonderful! Namibia looks much like the desert southwest. Life has taken me to some remote and beautiful places. A gift that I cherish. Thanks for letting us in on your adventure.
I never know what to expect from Noraly, I only know it’s going to be excellent. The final sequence of drone footage along with the music was absolutely fantastic. 1000 likes from me. Alan.
One 👍 is not enough !
Excellent episode Noraly, loved the epic cinematic ending. You capture the beauty and spirit of this earth both in your images and your knowledge and interactions with it and the people you meet. Thanks for inspiring !
I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one who talks to the animals I encounter during my rides - mostly cows, deer, raccoons, cranes, herons and an occasional house cat. Stay well and stay safe, Noraly.
This is what freedom is all about. Living your life to the fullest. No body controlling your life, go wherever you want to go and your own time and pace.
I've really enjoyed the SA and Namibian series. I love how you are including a variety of local activities and features. Right now it seems your career has no upper limit! Way to go! God bless!
An intelligent eye, a beautiful landscape, music that touches a man's heart, and dive deep into it, tear your sole open, and for a short moment, became part of our incredible short journey on earth. At the end of your video, you capture it all. Thanks.
To experience this vast beautiful country, virtually alone, must be soul expanding. The drone footage set to music really is. I still grit my teeth and get heavy on the pegs when you ride sand, though! It's fabulous to go with you. Bless you.

Savannah, the motorcycle being ridden in the savannah! 👍
Namibia is so beautiful and for an Australian who hasn't been able to go outback for too long, it would be an amazing place to be.
Thanks for taking us there!
You're great Noraly, I'd say the cattle salt lick had some minerals and urea in it to help the young cattle digest the dry feed. The nitrogen of the urea helps to make protein from the dry grass feed. Bit of a Farmer myself. 😊
Lick includes trace elements including copper, magnesium, selenium, and possibly cobalt, as well as sodium, as a minimum.
Same.

When I was a kid we. used to take my grandpa 's cows and goats to some natural salt licks in the Kenyan Rift Valley and watch them tear up the ground and slurp away.😂
I believe your birthday is around the 3 of July, so Happy Birthday to you! [I know it early]. I really enjoy your travelling videos they are great. I was hoping for Swaziland and Lesotho but I understand so it great! Keep Safe!
Noraly, you give a whole new meaning fo the term “off the beaten path”! I so thoroughly enjoy your adventures.
Greetings from a Dutch girl in Canada. Stay safe.
Well thats what I call living off the grid. Noraly, the farm with the cattle, mountain back drop, the drone shots, and the music really speak about your desires of exploring adventure and serenity. You journey is fantastic in expressing your feelings and emotions to the world👍
Holy Cow Noraly! 🐮
Noraly: “These Cows kick up more dust than Savannah!”
Fans: Noraly can herd cows too 😳
Conclusion: there is nothing our fearless Noraly cannot do. 🙌
I never heard of this country before your visit Noraly. Thank you for bringing the world to me from the view of a motorcycle seat.
WHAT??? ... you never heard TRUMP talking about NAMBIA!!! LOL ;)))
@@elektrolyte , please consider deleting your post. Let's not pollute Noraly's most excellent channel with politics. Thank you.
You're a great Lady lone rider Ms Noraly. I was really amazed with your endurance doing this kind road ride in various continent. Im very sure, moment by moment, this precious travel you made are part of your long journey and it's our pleasure seeing you around the globe, just like we do traveling with you on every journey you take. Have a safe ride all the time.
I found this Chanel by mistake and I'm finally liking it... I don't wanna miss any episode...🇳🇦
I remember that town. It was a relief to find it after running low on fuel, (and then realising it we had taken a wrong turn 600k in the wrong direction). It hasn’t changed in 20 years!
Already beautiful, intelligent, insightful, brave, friendly, and curious, Noraly keeps elevating all of these qualities, as she travels. A woman of character and dignity. Southern Africa
seems to agree with her. Thanks for bringing us along, Noraly.
Just love your programs
Well Missy, I didn't know you could herd cattle. You're welcome to come to the Texas Panhandle and move cattle anytime you'd take a notion to enjoy the open skies where the stars are big and bright deep in the heart of Texas. I reckon you could ride your motorbike if you didn't want to ride one of our horses. The chuck wagon is loaded with some good grub and cookie makes a fine biscuit and the coffee is hot. Some of the older cowboys speak German as they come from the Hill Country.
Namibia is a very beautiful, untamed country. Thanks for taking us there, Noraly. Great sights and soundtrack.
I smiled most of the way through this video. I could sense your excitement and joy with the dogs on your lap while driving around herding cattle. Beautiful !!!
WOW Noraly, love your Drone footage, and while your riding too. Must say it's beautiful country but you have a real talent controlling your drone and riding. Well done, keep safe and upright. Love from Banbasa, Northern India.
Most decent drones have a "follow me" feature
Nice to see you Noraly. Another great experience… Love the drone footage with the sunset, how beautiful is Namibia x
You sure do some isolated traveling . I’m to much of a negative thinking person to try what you do . I always think the worst will happen, but enjoy watching you and the beautiful way you make your videos . Safe travels.
beautiful end drone shots to some great music ... love it !!
Noraly, through your videos, you make our travel dreams come true!
What an interesting day of playing cowgirl or the day and speaking a mix of Duct, English, and Afrikaans. No wonder that you are exhausted by now, but We have an idea how Namibia looks and how the people are. Thank you again Noraly for a day on the farm.
Thank You for taking us with You on this Journey, giving us beautiful.x2 place to see. I never miss Your videos, i watch every single one of them. Love from Northeastern region of India ❤🇮🇳
Ok, everybody needs to go sign up for the amazing new web sight Noraly is to shy and humble to talk about in a video. We love you Noraly.
Link please?
Hi this is manju from india 🇮🇳 u🙏 ur bike travel &of road raiding very nice 👍😊
@@HairyMTB It's under Noraly's show more tab where here comment on the video is.
Noraly, you have done it again- it's absolutely beautiful! I love your sense of adventure. It's a joy to share in this ride and in your interactions at the ranch. I loved the little dog on your lap and the sweet newborn calf. The landscapes are strikingly beautiful and the drone shots gave a great view to enjoy them even more. Such beautiful music chosen to go with the views. Lovely. This entire day of adventure was so much fun! I love your life!
Thanks, Noraly, for another fantastic video. Love your interaction with the local people and the animals. Be safe! 🎀🌷⚡
What a great video. So entertaining and so vital to genuinely experience our fellow man and their cultures. This video was exceptional up until the last few minutes where you transported the viewers to depths of feeling that were unreal. The raw emotion of landscape and what it communicates is jaw dropping. The people of South Africa are beautiful and wonderful ... so is their land. Thank you for sharing.
Hi, enjoying the videos since i used to visit that areas as a child (9 years old) 51 years ago. My grandfather had a farm called brackwasser at Goageb not far from you. Wish so that someone can take video of it and post it ?. The farmhouse next to the road opposite the the old Goageb garage etc is where my grandfather Piet Lourens stayed and that i so wish to see again.
Namibia ! What natural beauty 👍
Your channel is fast becoming my favorite in all of TH-cam. The locations are always interesting ( yes even a cow ranch) and your videography skills seem to improve with every episode. Your sand riding skills are improving as well, you hardly mentioned it this time. I have ridden in sand before and it's no picnic. Plus you are genuinely nice! Thanks for taking the time to share your adventures!
This episode again showed real cinematic qualities. The earlier panoramic drone footages on the road showed beautifully the morning sun over the savanna. And the serenity of the vast landscape illuminated by the sunset, very evocative and stunning! Noraly if you showed this clip right after viewing the movie "Out of Africa" by Sidney Pollack, I would swear it was filmed by the same director! That's some serious filming and editing talent! 🙏🌸😊😊😊 Incidentally that movie won 7 Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Director in 1985.
Noraly it warmed my heart so much to see so many people welcoming and helping you in so many videos. Greetings from Bosnia.
That was superb, Noraly. And by heck, that drone footage at the end AND your exceptional choice in music to accompany it, was just sublime.
Alleen maar heimwee...... Dank voor de prachtige beelden en goede reis! Janneke
Namibia is just simply an extraordinary place; people, landscape, environment. I miss it so. And, Noraly, you have just scratched the surface at this point! Cheers!
LOL ... for someone who says she doesn't enjoy riding in sand, Noraly sure has a knack for finding sand to ride in😂
Most of this trip has been off road
Omg you are so funny... no I'm kidding
I think the sand finds her!
Well, she is in Africa after all.
What more can our Itchy Boots do. Add to your list Noraly, Cattle Farming.
🤣
"Our Itchy Boots" Yes. She belongs to the world. Our Itchy Boots.
Im waiting fore the time she rides with the National park rangers and tell them how to ride a bike in the sand 😊😊😊😊
Cattle farming, rough terrain. I’m guessing a rodeo would be child’s play for Itchy Boots.
Ma wonder woman has done it again.
Watching from Sydney Australia
Your content creation is on another level
Your Dutch 'accent' (especially vowels) certainly has come out while you've been in Africa. Lovely.
Phenomal!! That farm was amazing.... I can't even imagine owning something so vast and beautiful.
Hi Noraly, I live in Ongwediva
North of Namibia. Just wanted to say that you're doing a great job of showing us places we've never been to ❤🙏
Bro south is a good place,we need to start .The southern people needs to own land in the north and the northen people also in the south
live from oshakati
What a lovely episode, excellent drone footage, great Dutch farming skills with motorcycle kit and what a wonderful view from where you are staying. I just hope that the one day old baby calf was reunited with its mother!
The end footage made hairs stand up on my arms. Thank you Noraly for sharing🙏🏻
The drone-shots at the end😍
Goue lokkies....jy stap diep spore in die Afrika sand. Ek is verslaaf aan jou reisbeskrywings!!! Dit is pret, leersaam en erg professioneel gedoen. Doet so voort!!! 📹🎬📷⛽
Im from the US. Have some Namibian friends. They always speak of the beauty of their country. Very beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful. Thank you, Noraly
Drone shot of the last moment was just...wow!
Hello, Noraly! I never thought that South Africa could be so inviting! Boy, was I wrong!:) I never was a Farmer, either, but it seems that you got to see for yourself how hard it is... Thank you for showing us your 'Travels'! Semper Fidelis
Its Namibia
Wow..a big thanks to Noraly for placing Namibia in a global map 🗺️...
Wow, what a great episode!
That arid, rugged landscape is so beautiful.
The cattle ranch was quite interesting.
You did an excellent job filming and editing it all.
Thanks for taking us along.
Thumbs Up, for sure!
Happy Trails
From Japan I love it !
Great drone shots and background music as usual. :-)
Some of my best memories growing up in SA was riding in the back of pickup trucks, tooling around farms.
Prachtig. Namibia is exotic. Love your cow herding for a day😀Stunning. Would love the experience. Dankjewel:)
