Ya probably a little less risky too, she is taking some big gambles out there all alone, interesting, but a little over the top sometimes don't you think with this going down unknown trails not properly equipped for breakdown......by that I mean not mechanically inclined so much.......A bent shift lever and a few small holes in plastic airbox clearly put her into a panic.....Several other examples in this video stream.....blown fork seals, tool boxes rubbing on wheels....those require somewhat immediate attention....or crashes result....that is a fact.
@@greyfisher3897 I agree, and I get scared for all the crazy people that are out there. Most people are friendly, but it only takes one. I am scared for her
@الفصول الاربعة It does seem like such an amazing country. I've met many Moroccan people in my years and always enjoyed our passing. Always bad people in places but they are certainly outnumbered in most places by kind and helpful people. All the best and peace be with you all 👍
As a dispirited citizen of South Africa, a nation currently undergoing terminal decline, it is heartwarming to see how developed and clean and organised Morocco is. I wish our politicians would take note of what is possible in Africa.
A brief history about Western Sahara: It's a Moroccan territory that was colonised by the Spanish, but they gave it back to Morocco in 1975, unlike the French that did not give back the land below the Western Sahara to Morocco, and instead created a new state in 1960 called Mauritania!! Yes, Morocco had borders with Senegal, and was divided into pieces that we are still trying to get back now! I hope you find this informative. Have a safe trip.
That's exactly what I learned from reading about the Kingdom of Morocco's history. Colonialism and imperialism destroyed not only African countries but created intentionally tensions and conflicts among their people. Thus, there is no such thing as "Western Sahara ", it's just a distraction created by colonialism to serve its interest and keep Morocco and Algeria in conflict.
Prepare well for the side winds from Smara to Guerguerat on the border with Mauritania. I wish you, my lady, a beautiful challenge full of energy and positivity. You are in the Kingdom of Morocco, the kingdom of love, peace, stunning landscapes, and diverse customs and traditions.
What is fascinating about Morocco is its landscape. You can be in a snowy mountain at one time and in a couple of hours you are in the desert. Thank you Noraly for sharing this experience.
there's beautiful beaches too on mediterranean sea and atlantic ocean and big cities too, and as a moroccan i've never had the chance to visit the majority of these regions
Very true, that is the reason why Morocco has been used as the location for big movies. One of the few places where you can be in a dusty desert town yet have a backdrop of snow covered mountains.

“The force of water, not to be underestimated,” said Noraly. The force and determination of Noraly, not to be underestimated. That’s why we love to follow her on her journey,
@mtnman3MTA3 ….. good to know you’re a traditional Southerner like myself. Lifetime SCV member here from Tennessee. TSSRA! Look away, look away, look away……….
I thought this episode was choc full of interesting things to see; the trip itself was fascinating... even the two little birds living inside the wall of the first hotel were amusing. The pleasant people Noraly met along the way - even the checkpoint guards. The sand, the mountains in the distance... it all worked beautifully. I think I'm falling for Morocco.
I feel emotional when you converse with others in a variety of languages. It is such a beautiful thing to see that people can get along and share in a sense of adventure.
I am Morrocan I live in the states and I watch every single episode of your travel in Morocco and I loved it so amazing the way you promote tourists to come and check more of this beautiful peaceful country of Morocco and as well as I got hurt every time I see the map cut off but finally finally finally you put it the way how it’s supposed to be & thanks you very much enjoy your trip
I felt same, but then those giant river beds are there. The thing I was thinking was if climate change might bring an actual rainy season to any of the desert? Of course it was not always a desert. That would be something to see.
Wow, what wild and unusual weather 😳 Hope no casualties. You have an incredible ability to win people over so easily and quickly. Sounds like an exciting adventure ahead (next episode).
I really liked this video, and while the majestic views of Morocco's landscapes are undeniably awesome, I equally enjoy seeing the villages, towns, cities, and most importantly interaction with the people 🥰
Noraly: "The force of water it's not to be underestimated." You know that's so true when said by someone from the Netherlands! They have quite the history dealing with the force of water. Check out Naroly's videos on how the Netherlands tackled this problem.
Another great video. Highlighting the wonderful, friendly people of Morocco, and the amazing weather conditions the planet can throw at us! Thank you 😃❤️👍
A day in city traffic, dealing with hungry lawyers, no time for lunch, I got back home, found Itchy Boots and I was instantly transported to the Sahara desert... what more could I ask to redress this dreary day? Thank you Noraly, for some fresh air in my life.
Thank you for your line and I totally agree. With eighty years on my bones I recently bought myself for the first time a Royal Enfield Meteor 350 motorcycle to roll the easy back roads of Colombia. Incredible natural mountain landscapes and cosy villages. Perhaps sixty years late, but at the time one could not find motorcycles in this country. @@noelbowerman1562
Some parts in the high atlas saw almost 2 meters of snow drop in a couple of days, the less high parts had all that precipitation in the form of rain which eventually finds its way to lower parts of Morocco. Even during summer when it is 40C, if a thunderstorm hits the high atlas you can have boulders as big as a house be dragged into the rapid river of water downstream. Nature is beautiful but immensely powerful. And once again we see how helpful Moroccans are with the key, just love these positive vibes.
"Not much happened"??? I love every bit of it. Things I've never seen before or expected to see happened in front of my eyes. The best travel log I've ever watched. ❤❤❤
Even your ride on paved roads is a treat. A lot of variation in this ride, starting through the flooded areas, into the windy desert, the large town and then the checkpoints. Even your bent key is "interesting" because it is just "life" & very relatable. THANKS!
"For want of a nail, a kingdom was lost" For a broken key a trip could have been delayed. Thank goodness Noraly had a backup key, but of course! :) Thank you Noraly for bringing us along on your adventures, never boring, ever. How many of us have or ever will travel to the places you take us! :)
Hi Noraly, super video today. We are loving Morocco! Nothing you see or do is ever boring! Thank you for sharing all your fabulous adventures. Happy and safe travels are wished for you from Sydney, Australia
Oh my Goodness!! The scenery with the town and the beautiful palm trees ... just makes me wish I was there... thank you for taking us along with you on your journey Noraly!! Take care.❤
You may have not seen as I commented on your older video but your airbox is missing the splash guard which protects the airbox itself, the shock absorber and the suspension linkage. It screws onto the back of the airbox where the holes were and runs down between the tyre and the swing arm. They can get ripped off, either by a stone/tree root etc catching in the tyre or commonly when the bike rolls backwards and the guard catches in the tyre tread which levers it upwards and damages/rips it off. The part number is 17218-KIT-ED. The traditional emergency repair is with a piece of truck innertube riveted on. It is essential, we've destroyed linkage systems in two days riding in wet sand.
So would you agree that "This is serious", or would you say this is a minor problem that could be temporarily repaired with few layers of duct tape? I wonder what a hole in one her side cases would be from one of her many slow speed drops in sharp rocky terrain be called...."very serious"? Similarly was the slight minimal bend of her gear shift lever warranting such a panic reaction.....but like this comment stream seams to state often....she is incredible (not so much in mechanics though.....which is kinda part of don't you think)? She heavily relies on mechanics on these journeys, and being able to find and get to them..and pay them. Your advice is sound, but wouldn't you agree that this comment stream is a little over bit over praising of her incredible (ness).
I truly appreciate the great effort Noraly @ItchyBoots does for us viewers. You are a true champion and I wish you well. And you have been improving your content so much. Have a safe journey.
Another great adventure and story of the power of nature. What stood out for me though is how adept you are with changing conditions and your ability to let go of whatever plans and expectations you might have. It's likely why when you meet a problem or pitfall you respond with a laugh. I keep telling myself I need to learn how to laugh instead of curse. Perhaps another difficult lesson from Itchy Boots that has little to do with riding and a lot to do with being a better person. Thanks for that!
If you think that "boring", "eventless" and "never-ending tarmac riding" will put us off, then think again. You could recite the periodic table and still have us spellbound. Noraly, you bring us to places where most of us have never been, and you show it through your eyes. Your escapades are one of a kind, and so are you. Don't doubt yourself, we don't!
@@massimobozzi1 Noraly is/was a geochemist by training. She knows (and loves) the Periodic Table by heart (though it's mostly only nuclear physicists who have a special love for the Actinides). I'd love for her to sing the Periodic Table. 😁 40 years ago (yes, that betrays my age! 🤣) a uni physics lecturer shared a funny mnemonic to remember (almost) the first 9 elements of the PT: He Likes Beer By Cupfuls, Not Over Frothy (Helium, Lithium Berylium Boron Carbon Nitrogen Oxygen Fluorine). 😄
What an incredible ride! I'm your fan! I'm Portuguese and use to ride a Mountain bike. Till this moment I believed I do difficult thigs and see amazing places but now.... I suppose I didn't see nothing yet. Have a safe and beautiful trip. I'm following you.
I know Morocco is famous for precious gems and crystals. Right after rain is the best time to go rockhounding. I would love to see you take advantage of the area you are in and give us another geology lesson. 🙏
Noraly, Queen of the Roads, Bender of Keys. Loving this series. And there´s an important lesson here, for all of you travelers out there: learn a few words in the local language (NOraly knows a bunch of them, hehe). It does wonders. Good morning, thank you, please, etc. Ride on, ride safe.
Not every day can be scenic. It is all part of overlanding. I will watch every episode regardless of where you go and how it looks. It is all new to me and it gives me a feeling of the size and reality of the places you travel through.
Nothing happened? You bent your bike key, drove through sandstorms, did over 600klm. Every video is action packed. What a life of adventure itchy boots. Amazing .
I'm Brazilian and I'm learning a lot about the African continent with Noraly's videos and, mainly, with the comments from all of you who post here. Thank you all
It's not the length of the video it's the encountes and the way you tell your story and that's the reason I am watching in the first place! Again Thank You Noraly! May you be blessed and save always!
The power and interest (for me) is not just the great video of landscape in the world, but the interaction with people where she is at. Her ability and respect working through local customs and languages is EPIC! (at least for me). Her riding at sand mountain, NV, USA drew me in to this channel.
Happy to be enjoying a new adventure and above all that Alaska is in optimal conditions for you to travel safely, and to continue giving us all the beauty of Morocco. take care of yourself
We are currently at solar maxima where the suns energy output is 10% higher than at minima. We can expect a bumpy ride as the atmosphere deals with all that additional energy by making weather.
Every now and then watching her with all of the things she has to have on the bike...filling up her tank, adding an extra tank, and even another portable tank...throwing her leg over the bike between the tank bag and all of the bags on the back, and I occasionally think (for a second) sure would be easier in a Jeep or any 4x4 rig...but then I come to my senses. Nothing beats a long trip on a motorcycle, they are always interesting and memorable. Your videos are always enjoyable. Thanks
I've been on pins and needles the whole time you have been traveling through those desert gulches and flats with all those washes because if it rained even 50 kilometers or more away you could wind up in a sudden flash flood. Even so, I never expected to see that much rain. It was the best idea to take the main paved road this time around. Certainly your safety, Noraly, is really a matter of more than just luck on your part. You are just an all around impressive person.
You missed something ... the moment when you said it looks like paths of Patagonia you passed a small forest of ARGAN TREES 🌳 ... it's a famous tree who give a very useful oil and it's growing only in Morocco you can't find it any where all over the world... I'm sure that you will see it again all over the south of Morocco and I'm sure you will mention it in your next video or maybe you will meet some women associations who produce that expensive healthy ARGAN oil...I feel proud of you to visit that beautiful side of Morocco...you are a blessed woman...peace with you 👍
Hi Noraly. We just found you on youtube and are enjoying many of your episodes. You are doing a great job in showing the areas you travel through with its usually wonderful people. We are avid motorbikers living on Vancouver Island in Canada. Your energy is amazing and contagious... awesome stuff! Maybe a little helpful tip: When I saw your issue with the air box it was immediately clear to me that the damage is because the bike has no rock guard where there should be one inside the wheel well. I own 10 motorbikes and they all have one... When you go off road the rocks that are stuck in your tire sometimes get thrown right at the air box at high velocity. You will most likely have that problem again unless you get one of these amazing people down there to make you some sort of a guard... Good luck and all the best!
Noraly, there is something where you bike has zero issues…. It’s called motorcycling. Your on aDV bike shouts he making you smile regardless as an Adventure calls for unexpected things which you are handling beautifully.
Even with 'nothing much going on' there's a lot going on! Such a simple thing like a broken key could have been catastrophic. As always, Noraly survives and thrives 🙂, you are showing us all just how wonderful Morocco is 🙏
Those 640 kilometers was not probably super exciting for Noraly, but the video is perfect for her armchair followers. She knows how to film and edit for us to give us that feeling of "being there".
Noraly, I really enjoyed this episode, one of the many things I love about your films is the warm and friendliness you receive from so people. I am looking forward to the next edition, it seems you have something exciting lined up, best wishes, Geoff.
From raging torrents of water through the wadis to strong winds and a dust storm all in one day! Never a dull moment! Lol! Hope you had a good rest and curious to know what you've plotted for the next section. As always, take care, keep healthy and ride safe! 🤗✌
AMAZING !!! Amazing how Noraly quickly picked up the Moroccan Arabic (Darija) ! I'm really impressed by the pronunciation, the use of the right expressions and the willingness to learn other's culture 👍👍👍 Thank you for sharing your adventures ! Trek Salama Nouraly (Safe Trip) Choukrane !!!
Morocco is not the only place getting hammered by rain and snow. California has been in a state of emergence for a couple weeks now. There is flooding in the low lands and record snow fall in the mountains. Taking the main roads was a good idea and even those where a little like riding off road it looked like.
This is shows how important it is to keep an eye on the weather, especially more-so if you're camping or wild camping! Thank you for showing the 'quiet' days as well as the hectic - life happens every day and there's always a story that can be told. This episode still has interesting highlights :) Good luck with whatever's coming next, Noraly!
I schedule my Mon-Wed-Fri lunch breaks to watch your videos. I know several of my riding friends do the same as text messages fly on top of each other as the hour passes. Great video as always, looking forward to the next one! You’re keeping us snowed in Canadians inspired for our riding season!
It’s never a question Noraly… Always enjoy your videos. Today you avoided disaster of a broken key with the help of some very helpful fuel station attendants. 👍. Looking forward to your surprise of your next video. Cheers and ride safe. Dan ✌️🏍🇨🇦
We always enjoy your videos! The scenery doesn’t need to be spectacular although much of it is. Seeing different places, meeting different peoples from around the world is part of the adventure. So thank you Noraly!
I finally made it. All the way through Season 6, not missing a single episode. Enjoying every laugh, people you meet, drone flying, scenery, Spanish, English and every other Language along the way. Everyone you talk to and asking you if your traveling alone. I think to myself " Why no, You are bringing almost two million friends with you around the world." Alone , very funny. Ha Ha . I smile to myself. Now, while I await a new episode from season seven, I will watch seasons 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Itchy Boots, Noraly with my warmest regards, may your journey bring you new friends and experiences!
The spirit of Uri Geller is travelling with you! 👻 …that's how the key got bent. 👀 Remembering the story of an American colleague about how his car got stripped off its paint on one side in a sandstorm in Arizona, how is the visor of the helmet holding up in these sandblasting winds? ☺There, I found something to worry about again! 😱 Beautiful video, scenery, great people (Can we have such relaxed friendly officers for Germany as well, please?), impressing landscapes, landscapes, landscapes (Now filled up with groundwater, yay!) 😍🤗
I loved seeing spring in the Mohave desert after winter rain the seeds would open up large swathes of flowers. The people of Morocco will enjoy a good season of blooming life.
Having traveled around the world I always wished I had taken more time to SEE. I Enjoy riding on the back of your 300 and seeing what you're seeing, observing your interactions with real people...Even feeling what you're feeling in some cases. Keep doing what you're doing!
Thank you for the return of the map-update Noraly. Always look forward to that. Even if the terrain and sights may seem a bit boring its never boring for those of us who haven't been or will ever be in these far away places. Never want these videos to end!! We are blessed to be watching through her eyes. Sounds like Alaska will be FULLY loaded in next video. Fuel for Noraly, and fuel for Alaska. Looking forward to it. Peace, ❤❤❤❤

I am Morrocan I live in the states and I watch every single episode of your travel in Morocco and I loved it so amazing the way you promote tourists to come and check more of this beautiful peaceful country of Morocco and as well as I got hurt every time I see the map cut off but finally finally finally you put it the way how it’s supposed to be & thanks you very much enjoy your trip
What a beautiful homeland you have.
I concur ❤

Personally don't mind the non- offroad episodes! Nice to see some people as well. Maroccans are so lovely, helpful and inquisitive!
Intellectually I know that Morocco has floods, snow, and cold weather, but actually seeing it is still a bit of a surprise!
المغرب جميل وطبيعة خلابة وكل شيء فيها الطقس عادي يحدث كل مرة
I felt same, but then those giant river beds are there. The thing I was thinking was if climate change might bring an actual rainy season to any of the desert? Of course it was not always a desert. That would be something to see.
Every year Morocco has snow And rain, sometimes floods, in the North. In the South it's desert and doesn't normally rain (where the video is filmed)

Do people have cisterns to save the water for irrigation and household use?
What incredibly friendly people Moroccans. So refreshing to see.
Moroccans are generous people. Proud to be Moroccan 🇲🇦❤️
شكرا لك على تغيير خريطة المملكة المغربية، هذا ينم على تفهمك و إحترامك. تحياتي لك سيدتي و جولة جميلة مليئة بالمتعة و التحدي
Wow, what wild and unusual weather 😳 Hope no casualties. You have an incredible ability to win people over so easily and quickly. Sounds like an exciting adventure ahead (next episode).
In morocco people are already friendly
I really liked this video, and while the majestic views of Morocco's landscapes are undeniably awesome, I equally enjoy seeing the villages, towns, cities, and most importantly interaction with the people 🥰
You have made me fall in loooove with Morocco, thank you Noraly! 💕
All I noticed about your experience was the friendliness of the Moroccan people. They are cooperative and kind.😊
Noraly, always showing me how much funner it is to ride the world, than to get ready for work and go to work.
Don't forget this is her work...we see the end result of all her hard work...
Making the videos is the hard part of her job.
@@yvonnebrink9912 I understand Yvonne, it still looks funner than my job. 😄
@@yvonnebrink9912 Yes..and she does it very well!!!
Noraly: "The force of water it's not to be underestimated." You know that's so true when said by someone from the Netherlands! They have quite the history dealing with the force of water. Check out Naroly's videos on how the Netherlands tackled this problem.

Another great video. Highlighting the wonderful, friendly people of Morocco, and the amazing weather conditions the planet can throw at us! Thank you 😃❤️👍
A day in city traffic, dealing with hungry lawyers, no time for lunch, I got back home, found Itchy Boots and I was instantly transported to the Sahara desert... what more could I ask to redress this dreary day? Thank you Noraly, for some fresh air in my life.
Time for a change of direction my friend
Thank you for your line and I totally agree. With eighty years on my bones I recently bought myself for the first time a Royal Enfield Meteor 350 motorcycle to roll the easy back roads of Colombia. Incredible natural mountain landscapes and cosy villages. Perhaps sixty years late, but at the time one could not find motorcycles in this country. @@noelbowerman1562
10am here in Mexico, and travelling with Noraly in Morocco. Amazing. As for climate, crazy everywhere.
10pm here in Jakarta.
10:43 in Yucatan, Mexico after major rainstorm last night, riding this morning with Noraly!
🙂the week has three highlights: 1) Itchy, 2) Boots and 3) Noraly. Thank you so much for letting us be a part of it.
Some parts in the high atlas saw almost 2 meters of snow drop in a couple of days, the less high parts had all that precipitation in the form of rain which eventually finds its way to lower parts of Morocco.
Even during summer when it is 40C, if a thunderstorm hits the high atlas you can have boulders as big as a house be dragged into the rapid river of water downstream.
Nature is beautiful but immensely powerful.
And once again we see how helpful Moroccans are with the key, just love these positive vibes.
Plenty happened! Never a dull moment with Itchy boots.
"Not much happened"??? I love every bit of it. Things I've never seen before or expected to see happened in front of my eyes. The best travel log I've ever watched. ❤❤❤
I think he means in the simplicity there was adventure. It's not a knock
Even your ride on paved roads is a treat. A lot of variation in this ride, starting through the flooded areas, into the windy desert, the large town and then the checkpoints. Even your bent key is "interesting" because it is just "life" & very relatable. THANKS!
"For want of a nail, a kingdom was lost" For a broken key a trip could have been delayed. Thank goodness Noraly had a backup key, but of course! :) Thank you Noraly for bringing us along on your adventures, never boring, ever. How many of us have or ever will travel to the places you take us! :)
Oh yes! Good idea to have a "back up key" on such a long trip.... I hope I will remember for my next trip 😂😂
Speaking from experience, the worst is to have a key break off, it's always right at the lock. But, I'm sure Noraly could figure something out.
lovely quote!
ok the desert can be deserty, but the scenery on the way was incredible, morocco is a beautiful place.
Hi Noraly, super video today. We are loving Morocco! Nothing you see or do is ever boring! Thank you for sharing all your fabulous adventures. Happy and safe travels are wished for you from Sydney, Australia
Oh my Goodness!! The scenery with the town and the beautiful palm trees ... just makes me wish I was there... thank you for taking us along with you on your journey Noraly!! Take care.❤
You may have not seen as I commented on your older video but your airbox is missing the splash guard which protects the airbox itself, the shock absorber and the suspension linkage. It screws onto the back of the airbox where the holes were and runs down between the tyre and the swing arm. They can get ripped off, either by a stone/tree root etc catching in the tyre or commonly when the bike rolls backwards and the guard catches in the tyre tread which levers it upwards and damages/rips it off. The part number is 17218-KIT-ED. The traditional emergency repair is with a piece of truck innertube riveted on. It is essential, we've destroyed linkage systems in two days riding in wet sand.
Good eye, hope itchy sees this.
So would you agree that "This is serious", or would you say this is a minor problem that could be temporarily repaired with few layers of duct tape? I wonder what a hole in one her side cases would be from one of her many slow speed drops in sharp rocky terrain be called...."very serious"? Similarly was the slight minimal bend of her gear shift lever warranting such a panic reaction.....but like this comment stream seams to state often....she is incredible (not so much in mechanics though.....which is kinda part of don't you think)? She heavily relies on mechanics on these journeys, and being able to find and get to them..and pay them. Your advice is sound, but wouldn't you agree that this comment stream is a little over bit over praising of her incredible (ness).
@@greyfisher3897 All talk and no action. you probably don't even know how to ride a bike. Noraly is doing a great job!
I truly appreciate the great effort Noraly @ItchyBoots does for us viewers. You are a true champion and I wish you well. And you have been improving your content so much. Have a safe journey.
Noraly you've inspired me to ride so I've bought a bike & now I'm learning how to ride & hope one day will travel the world just like you 🥰
A superb demonstration of how knowing and using the basics of good manners in several languages will help a traveller on their way. Wonderful!
I noticed the same thing. It flows.
We hereby nominate you for an honorary Iron Butt award for riding nearly 400 miles in one day Noraly. Way to go! Stay safe...
Another great adventure and story of the power of nature. What stood out for me though is how adept you are with changing conditions and your ability to let go of whatever plans and expectations you might have. It's likely why when you meet a problem or pitfall you respond with a laugh. I keep telling myself I need to learn how to laugh instead of curse. Perhaps another difficult lesson from Itchy Boots that has little to do with riding and a lot to do with being a better person. Thanks for that!
If you think that "boring", "eventless" and "never-ending tarmac riding" will put us off, then think again. You could recite the periodic table and still have us spellbound. Noraly, you bring us to places where most of us have never been, and you show it through your eyes. Your escapades are one of a kind, and so are you. Don't doubt yourself, we don't!
Exactly, well said❤️
Like Foor Jansen singing the phonebook (Dutch singer, solo and Front Woman of Nightwish)
Noraly is great, but what do you have against the periodic table? Chemistry teacher here.
@@massimobozzi1 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@massimobozzi1 Noraly is/was a geochemist by training. She knows (and loves) the Periodic Table by heart (though it's mostly only nuclear physicists who have a special love for the Actinides). I'd love for her to sing the Periodic Table. 😁

I'm from morocco and i absolutely love your videos. Keep up the fantastic work. And pay a little visit to Marrakech
Lovely to see tan tan again its been 30 years!
What an incredible ride! I'm your fan! I'm Portuguese and use to ride a Mountain bike. Till this moment I believed I do difficult thigs and see amazing places but now.... I suppose I didn't see nothing yet. Have a safe and beautiful trip. I'm following you.
I know Morocco is famous for precious gems and crystals. Right after rain is the best time to go rockhounding. I would love to see you take advantage of the area you are in and give us another geology lesson. 🙏
Wrong.
Noraly, Queen of the Roads, Bender of Keys. Loving this series.
And there´s an important lesson here, for all of you travelers out there: learn a few words in the local language (NOraly knows a bunch of them, hehe).
It does wonders. Good morning, thank you, please, etc. Ride on, ride safe.
Not every day can be scenic. It is all part of overlanding. I will watch every episode regardless of where you go and how it looks. It is all new to me and it gives me a feeling of the size and reality of the places you travel through.

Don't judge something you haven't seen
Nothing happened? You bent your bike key, drove through sandstorms, did over 600klm. Every video is action packed. What a life of adventure itchy boots. Amazing .
I'm Brazilian and I'm learning a lot about the African continent with Noraly's videos and, mainly, with the comments from all of you who post here. Thank you all
I love how you quickly learn enough of the language of the country you are traveling in, to communicate with the people there.
I am impressed she learned a few words of Berber. The locals must have really appreciated it.
It's not the length of the video it's the encountes and the way you tell your story and that's the reason I am watching in the first place!
Again Thank You Noraly! May you be blessed and save always!
You really encountered everything in Morocco. Unbelievable 😳
المغرب متانقض الطبيعة في كل بقعة فيه له طبعته الخاصة
The power and interest (for me) is not just the great video of landscape in the world, but the interaction with people where she is at. Her ability and respect working through local customs and languages is EPIC! (at least for me). Her riding at sand mountain, NV, USA drew me in to this channel.
You maybe are prone to breaking things but you always have a fix...👍🏻
Happy to be enjoying a new adventure and above all that Alaska is in optimal conditions for you to travel safely, and to continue giving us all the beauty of Morocco. take care of yourself
Always stay safe no matter what. May God bless you all.
I'm perplexed with the weather conditions but much more with the beautifulness of Morocco.
We are currently at solar maxima where the suns energy output is 10% higher than at minima. We can expect a bumpy ride as the atmosphere deals with all that additional energy by making weather.
@@robinwells8879 Solar Maxima won't happen until late next year at the earliest.
المغرب كانت ذالك دائما الثلوج تهطل كل سنة وحتى الامطار الغزيرة
beautifulness???? all desert and sand but nothing else
@@justsomeguy6474 it’s a sinusoidal curve so it is approaching apogee.
So, the video wasn't made up of all the pretty places; You're still a delight to spend time with. Thank you Noraly. Peace
Every now and then watching her with all of the things she has to have on the bike...filling up her tank, adding an extra tank, and even another portable tank...throwing her leg over the bike between the tank bag and all of the bags on the back, and I occasionally think (for a second) sure would be easier in a Jeep or any 4x4 rig...but then I come to my senses. Nothing beats a long trip on a motorcycle, they are always interesting and memorable. Your videos are always enjoyable. Thanks
I've been on pins and needles the whole time you have been traveling through those desert gulches and flats with all those washes because if it rained even 50 kilometers or more away you could wind up in a sudden flash flood. Even so, I never expected to see that much rain. It was the best idea to take the main paved road this time around. Certainly your safety, Noraly, is really a matter of more than just luck on your part. You are just an all around impressive person.
You missed something ... the moment when you said it looks like paths of Patagonia you passed a small forest of ARGAN TREES 🌳 ... it's a famous tree who give a very useful oil and it's growing only in Morocco you can't find it any where all over the world... I'm sure that you will see it again all over the south of Morocco and I'm sure you will mention it in your next video or maybe you will meet some women associations who produce that expensive healthy ARGAN oil...I feel proud of you to visit that beautiful side of Morocco...you are a blessed woman...peace with you 👍
Excellent insight, thank you!
Hi Noraly. We just found you on youtube and are enjoying many of your episodes. You are doing a great job in showing the areas you travel through with its usually wonderful people. We are avid motorbikers living on Vancouver Island in Canada. Your energy is amazing and contagious... awesome stuff! Maybe a little helpful tip: When I saw your issue with the air box it was immediately clear to me that the damage is because the bike has no rock guard where there should be one inside the wheel well. I own 10 motorbikes and they all have one... When you go off road the rocks that are stuck in your tire sometimes get thrown right at the air box at high velocity. You will most likely have that problem again unless you get one of these amazing people down there to make you some sort of a guard... Good luck and all the best!
Noraly, there is something where you bike has zero issues…. It’s called motorcycling. Your on aDV bike shouts he making you smile regardless as an Adventure calls for unexpected things which you are handling beautifully.
Even with 'nothing much going on' there's a lot going on! Such a simple thing like a broken key could have been catastrophic.
As always, Noraly survives and thrives 🙂, you are showing us all just how wonderful Morocco is 🙏
Oh yes! Good idea to have a "back up key" on such a long trip....
Those 640 kilometers was not probably super exciting for Noraly, but the video is perfect for her armchair followers. She knows how to film and edit for us to give us that feeling of "being there".
Yes..and she does it very well!!
Exactly
Noraly, I really enjoyed this episode, one of the many things I love about your films is the warm and friendliness you receive from so people. I am looking forward to the next edition, it seems you have something exciting lined up, best wishes, Geoff.

Thank you very much for fixing the maps of Morocco 🇲🇦 , you are such a great soul .

I loved the big, enlarged sun in the background behind her when riding in the dust filled air! 🌞
From raging torrents of water through the wadis to strong winds and a dust storm all in one day! Never a dull moment! Lol! Hope you had a good rest and curious to know what you've plotted for the next section. As always, take care, keep healthy and ride safe! 🤗✌
AMAZING !!! Amazing how Noraly quickly picked up the Moroccan Arabic (Darija) ! I'm really impressed by the pronunciation, the use of the right expressions and the willingness to learn other's culture 👍👍👍
Thank you for sharing your adventures !

Your positivity is so infectious! Always bringing smiles and well wishes from everyone you meet! Incredibly refreshing!
For every episode it seems you are learning more and more arabic. Your greetings and small talk is getting smoother and smoother. Ride safe!
She is also speaking Berber words, an African language unrelated to Arabic.
Morocco is not the only place getting hammered by rain and snow. California has been in a state of emergence for a couple weeks now. There is flooding in the low lands and record snow fall in the mountains. Taking the main roads was a good idea and even those where a little like riding off road it looked like.
Those places Noraly visited used to have some rain each year, however, the last few years had been very dry (from 2016 to 2022)
This is shows how important it is to keep an eye on the weather, especially more-so if you're camping or wild camping!
Thank you for showing the 'quiet' days as well as the hectic - life happens every day and there's always a story that can be told. This episode still has interesting highlights :)
Good luck with whatever's coming next, Noraly!
Not much happened, sure, but you make this series fun and interesting because you have great personality. Thanks for being so entertaining Noraly!
She is very friendly, knowledgeable, skilled Motorcyclist, and brave. 😊
I schedule my Mon-Wed-Fri lunch breaks to watch your videos. I know several of my riding friends do the same as text messages fly on top of each other as the hour passes. Great video as always, looking forward to the next one! You’re keeping us snowed in Canadians inspired for our riding season!
It’s never a question Noraly… Always enjoy your videos. Today you avoided disaster of a broken key with the help of some very helpful fuel station attendants. 👍. Looking forward to your surprise of your next video. Cheers and ride safe. Dan ✌️🏍🇨🇦
We always enjoy your videos! The scenery doesn’t need to be spectacular although much of it is. Seeing different places, meeting different peoples from around the world is part of the adventure. So thank you Noraly!
I finally made it. All the way through Season 6, not missing a single episode. Enjoying every laugh, people you meet, drone flying, scenery, Spanish, English and every other Language along the way.
Everyone you talk to and asking you if your traveling alone. I think to myself " Why no, You are bringing almost two million friends with you around the world." Alone , very funny. Ha Ha . I smile to myself.
Now, while I await a new episode from season seven, I will watch seasons 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Itchy Boots, Noraly with my warmest regards, may your journey bring you new friends and experiences!

I loved seeing spring in the Mohave desert after winter rain the seeds would open up large swathes of flowers. The people of Morocco will enjoy a good season of blooming life.
Can't wait to see what you're up to for the next video, Noraly, but this was great again, of course, thanks for taking us along.😃
Pushing down on the front of the filler cap takes the pressure off the lock. Love your adventures.
Having traveled around the world I always wished I had taken more time to SEE. I Enjoy riding on the back of your 300 and seeing what you're seeing, observing your interactions with real people...Even feeling what you're feeling in some cases. Keep doing what you're doing!
Thank you for the return of the map-update Noraly. Always look forward to that. Even if the terrain and sights may seem a bit boring its never boring for those of us who haven't been or will ever be in these far away places. Never want these videos to end!! We are blessed to be watching through her eyes. Sounds like Alaska will be FULLY loaded in next video. Fuel for Noraly, and fuel for Alaska. Looking forward to it. Peace, ❤❤❤❤
Another excellent episode. Noraly is an excellent Ambassador for the two wheel world.
After holding my breath through many if your scarier rides, it's nice just to cruise on the "sensible" routes as well. Good luck!
