    ...this new series has made me cry at times, I'm an old man now, but 30 years ago I rode down through Morocco on my bike and seeing you do it brought all the memories flooding back, the fantastic scenery, the genuine friendliness of the people, and the adventure of it all ...

      Indeed! My grandmother's sister Gerda was a bank clerk, or actually "bank maiden" as they were called back then. She quite spontaneously managed to get a cabin on a cargo ship from Helsinki/Finland to Hull in 1947. In those days it was also quite tricky to go abroad as you needed a certain permission to change Finnish marks to foreign currency, but working at a bank she had the right contacts to do this and get the pounds needed. She and her friend took the boat to Hull and then travelled in England on trains for many days. As she had not learned English in school, it must have been quite an adventure. Gerda remembered well how some people they met were so worried , "oh dear, young foreign girls travelling like this" (Gerda was already 40 then). Anyway, the same cargo ship that took them back was delayed (in Hamburg, a city still in ruins) and they got a reprimand when they got back at work, but that didn't stop Gerda from going abroad again, many times during the 50s, Italy was her favourite, I think. She had so amazing stories to tell about her life. Gerda was 96 when she passed away.

      Well, the Sahara starts now and if Noraly rides through that desert via Algeria and Mali or Niger, the only thing I can say is "chapeau"... further that's not the most secure places due to some terror plagued territory in both countries. Therefore I think that she stays in Morocco and rides Western Sahara to Mauritania which is slightly less risky . There she still needs to avoid the Polisario controlled territory. But again this is serious desert riding if she wants to end up in Nouakchott. Respect ,respect!!!

    As a Flemish Belgian, I'm quite interested in your voyage. We have a lot of Morrocon immigrants here which we don't really know about because of the cultural and religious barrier, (which works both ways, to be honest). I'm keen on learning about Morrocons. After all, they make-out over ten per cent of my country's population. I know a lot of Morrocons, but those have been raised in our Western culture and you can't see or hear any difference between "us" and "them". My new neighbour is from Morroco, so maybe I'll introduce him to your channel and ask him a few questions. I'll certainly learn something from the both you, the people you meet and from my new neighbour. Cheerio "Noortje".

    Morocco is a multilingual country indeed. In the Rif (North) but also in the south Spanish is very common, because Morocco was also occupied by Spain. French is a essential part of moroccan communication because of the French colony, but not only for the olders even more for the youth. French is used as the business and education language. And the Amazigh language as u said is the native language of Morocco. Not everyone speaks Tamazight , but at least 50 % know how to speak one. Its the language of the Amazigh people, the indigenous people of Morocco. And than Darija which was brought by the Arabs (moroccan dialect of arabic) is basically spoken by everyone. So a Amazigh person would speak up to 4 languages.

      Exactly
      Not to mention that the Moroccan Diaspora around the world is very large. Especially in Europe and North America.
      I was born and raised in France and spent all my childhood summers in Morocco with my cousins from all over the map.
      All staying at my grandmothers house and mixing Moroccan Arabic, English and all out respectives languages (French German Dutch Spanish Italian 😅)

    This type of interaction happens frequently when traveling alone. It's like someone appears and wants to help or be involved. Solo travel is the most immersive and rewarding way to understanding cultures and grow yourself. She's doing it right, in addition, the time it takes to edit and film content takes a lot of focus and gumption as well.

    The Atlas mountains are so impressive! Maybe not the Rockies of the Andes, but so BEAUTIFUL! The mix of languages is so interesting, making for a fun time communicating. The people are so warm and open, and very willing to be helpful. Makes for a journey to be remembered. Thank you for taking us with you. 🥰⛰🏜 Be safe! best wishes from Ann Arbor.

      This whole planet is AMAZING, through their own characteristics.

  • @aquapetsguide

    I asked my friend to translate the calligraphy words that appeared on the walls at the beginning of the video, and I was amazed! The first one was a verse from a poem that read, "Everlasting nations are (those based on) good behavior and morals. If their ethics, morals, and good behavior are lost, they will also be lost." The second one, which appeared at the end of the hotel exit, read, "Good people are those who help other people." I couldn't help but think about how this was reflected in the behavior of the people you met. Once again, Noralyamazing choice of roads and towns!

As a traveller myself I respect her so much. Travelling to parts of the world ordinary folk would never visit. Stay and ride safe Noraly, keep the vids coming. So soon as I get a notification of a new vid. I drop everything, make a coffee. Sit down and watch it. What a life. Enjoy Noraly. 🤠

Carry on, dear Noraly, you habe all good spirits at your side, because you live "Ubuntu. African philosophy - I am because you are!" that is fundamental different to european egocentrism. You will find this togetherness also by the poorest people. Best wishes!
