- In this episode I explore one of the islands in the Saloum delta in Senegal. To get here with a motorcycle was not so easy, and so people are not used to seeing a foreigner on a motorcycle! Nevertheless, I was welcomed with open arms and meet tonnes of new people in this episode. What an incredible place, with incredible people..

You have the ability to connect positively with anyone you encounter. Never stop being an ambassador of good will. The world needs more of you…..
It has to be her warm smile and easy going attitude..
.....millions more like her:).
Good job Noraly..!!
Keep doing the right things in your life.. be safe all the time😍😍 Luv you..
@@MrDonJBerg Exactly. One's attitude/personality is often reflected back towards them. She approaches people in a positive way, and thus has positive experiences.
Great spirit
I like that random encounter:
Dude: "With me, to there."
Noraly: "OK", and gives him a ride.
Thanks Noraly for showing Africa to the world. We are all not about war, strive, poverty and famine. We are compassionate and friendly, you have shown how the boat guys treated you and Alaska. You are our ambassador.
I fully agree with youre view.
People tend to forget that if you treat others reasonably they mostly do the same, or do better. It is always a minority, which are troublemakers and unreasonable.
But you are right, if one only learns about different places from news stories. The logic about news is such that the bad news are more news worthy and have higher priority than the good news or news which describe normal life.
Absolutely! She is an ambassador!
Absolutely! Bring back the P-D Rally! Noraly has shown it can happen. Period.
What a beautiful island. No rubbish no plastic. The people have respect for their home land
Here is my mother island 🏝️. Thank you🙏🏽 for showing love for my mother village 🇸🇳 God bless you🙏🏽🇸🇳❤️🇬🇲
What I noticed that is so nice is people out socializing without cell phones. Very simple, people enjoying each other’s company.
Except for the guy , after the bridge, who had his donkey running and is chatting on his cell! Distracted driving? LOL!
Boy ain't that the truth!
Cell phone 📲 communication is most everywhere. 😊
@@SlickBubbles I noticed that too, it was very funny. And their cart took the whole width with a couple of inches to spare.
Most modern maladies are first-world maladies....
Noraly, you are one crazy lady...the places you go...and we love you for it. You expand our world.
Adventurous, courageous, self-confident!
She definetely has the strenght and the guts to go after what other people dream about, but never dare to go after.
This is where my father is from. He really enjoyed the video, especially the aerial shots. It is a new way to see his home. Thank you for this.
Where is this town or village
It never stops to amaze me how smile is international language.
Noraly, the best travel guide ever!
She shows us the world as it is..
Imagine being Noraly and never seeing the same scenery ever. Travel is so much fun because every single thing you see is new to your eyes. What an awesome way to live!😊
That’s why I love her videos! So adventurous!
FROM ATHENS GREECE ! IT IS TRUTH ! BUT TRUTH IS ALSO THAT OUR LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO SEE THEM AGAIN .......70 OR 80 YEARS AND THEN WE ALL FLY.........WE NEED ETERNAL LIFE WITH HEALTH AND PEACE IN THE PARADISE ! DO YOU AGREE ??? GREETINGS !
It’s hard to imagine all the things and people that Noraly has seen! We only see a fraction of it…. truly amazing!
Cheers
Wow, the music and drone scenery are stunning ❤.
I love the initial look of bemusement on the locals faces as they realise that the motorcycle is being ridden by a European woman! Then the smiles come and the warm welcome begins 😊
Thanks for showing a different Africa than the one we see in the media. What a great continent. Love your channel, Günter/Nürnberg
It's by design. They have been telling lies about West Africa for over 50 years to keep everyone at bay so the French and the British would have all the recourses in there to themselves. Chinese has exposed them, that's why the skyline in Africa are changing rapidly. Hence, the hate towards China from these two countries.
C est vrai ,les médias occidentaux ne montre que la part hideuse de l afrique qui est heureusement très minime
Welcome to West Africa with the mixed roads of broken seal, hard rock, peddles and sand. Goats and Crazy chickens. Where people live over 100 years and everyone has a smile.
It's the best place on earth. 🇬🇭
I think it has to be said that Noraly has the best commute to work everyday. It's always different, interesting, challenging and very scenic, no matter where she is! I for one envy her, and want to thank her for taking all of us along for the commute. Thanks Noraly, you are the epic adventurer!
"You are the First" !! I bet there have been several dozen "Firsts" in you travels abroad. It seems that when you have one of your encounters on video, a crowd always forms. They are just as curious of you as we are of them. Awesome!!
No telephone, No television, No stress, No problems worth worrying about. Idealistic!
It is highly unlikely that I will visit Senegal so I feel privileged to have Noraly as a guide to show us the fascinating land and people in such an interesting and entertaining way. Your skill in filming and editing the drone footage is brilliant!
Merci Noraly you make me meet nice People which in my country seem impossible c est chacun pour soi..Merci encore❤🎉🎉
This is such an awesome way of getting to know countries of which I know close to nothing. Absolutely love this channel! ❤
When Noraly began with her S1 E1, I was fortunate to start retirement. Closely followed every season and every ep.
Looking back, Noraly changed me from would be boring retired life to the most exciting travel to different places,interacting with many people and cultures, right to this episode. It just shows how one woman on a bike with a heart of gold can change millions of viewers.
WE LOVE YOU DEAR NORALY FOR MAKING US BETTER PEOPLE, WE CAN MAKE THIS WORLD A BETTER PLACE FULL OF LOVE AND RESPECT ❤❤❤❤❤❤
You just made my eyes tear up! We get so absorbed in our own lives but in 20 minutes and reading your comment I feel hopeful again! Thank you! ✌
Muy bellas palabras, mi hermano. Ella es de otro nivel. Saludos desde Argentina 🤗🤗🤗🇦🇷
I have said similar, but Ahmed, you really nailed it here with perfection! She has made me a better person in more ways than one, not to mention better educated. We are watching the real Wonder Woman before our eyes. Her parents must be so proud. No one can come close to shining the light like dear Noraly is doing. Peace
What an awesome comment! ❤
I identify with what you are saying too. I also retired at the end of 2018 and started following Noraly. She gives me hope for humanity too. I just got to figure out how to get off my ass and do a little bit of what Noraly does.
I wonder if the guy who got a ride with Noraly on Alaska had ANY IDEA how special it was. Like hitting the lottery in my book! Ride with the the world famous Itchy Boots and Alaska! Doesn't get better than that! Oh Happy Day! There is something special about Noraly's tone of voice, facial expression, and choice of words in these videos that enables her to multiply the interest level. I am glued to the screen. Love the educational content. Thank You Noraly. Peace ❤❤❤
Love the way you can articulate what you feel! Agreed! She has an uncanny ability to engage and capture her audience..it’s magnetic! She is the definition of magnetic personality!!😁
Noraly is the only TH-camr I set a reminder for . Another great video 🎉
Hi Noraly, your ability to communicate with people you have barely met is amazing. Your honest laugh and your good mood instantly create bridges of friendship. Noraly, you are a human being who makes this world a more beautiful and better place. Thank you for being there and for taking us with you on your wonderful journeys and adventures. Be always safe Noraly!
And I simply wish to say "Amen" to that @gedanst1
Don’t ever change…
Noraly you are living your best life 😊
This season has been incredibly interesting. I always like it when you talk with the locals. Thank you for letting us go around the globe with you.
Mama Africa !! What a beautiful continent. NORLAY making it even more beautiful, exciting and surprising....imagine you're in a small village in the middle of an island in Senegal and you end up making the chat with a women in english while you're a dutch ! That's magic
Noraly has been helped by many & returns the favour as seen here & in other past videos. Noraly has transported her motorcycles in canoes in past adventures & here again to get on & off this island. She has put her motorcycle in a basket to overcome a cliff face & avoid possible threatening areas. Another great ride with helpful people overcoming challenges en route. Thanks for another awesome ride.
Hallo Noraly, Lucia hier. Ik volg je al een tijdje . Bedankt dat je mij meeneemt op de motorfiets naar al de fantastische landen. Ik kan het niet zo goed zien welke begroeiing er groeit op het strand van de eilanden. Maar ik weet dat in Suriname er ook landverlies was langs de zee. Dit is in samenwerking met de Anton de Kom Universiteit in Paramaribo tegen gegaan door massaal Mangrove planten in de grond te doen. Het houd de zee tegen en het is tevens voor zeedieren en andere fauna en flora een broedplaats. Zo krijg je een biodiversiteit en de bevolking kan met mate van leven. Ben erg nieuwsgierig naar jouw volgende belevenissen. Ik wens je gezondheid en succes toe. Veel groetjes uit Rotterdam. 🎉
That French guy is doing good work.
Yay... Island hopping by bridge...and I remembered the Tortugas turtle sanctuary project you've been to before...
People trying to make a difference in their community.
Kudos to them.
Thanks again Noraly for taking us on this island hopping today
Noraly, your drone shots show just how beautiful these countries are . I'm getting a history and geography lesson with each episode. Thanks and be safe .
For any motor cycle, loose sand is difficult. Either the bike is too light, or too heavy. Nobby tires, with lower pressure, can help. We make our choices. I’m about ready to let my Road king go. I’ve ridden so far, so long, and getting tired. Noraly, you bring us much joy, so many adventures. I know that your long adventures come with significant sacrifices, family, friends, someone to love and support you. TH-cam comments can only give so much. You demonstrate a real independent nature though. I wish you much happiness, a safe and sound life. Thank you for sharing.
I was thinking how difficult it would have been to maneuver if it was raining, I saw Her Cameroon videos and She was going through the mud, sliding and getting stuck.
From the harsh and beautiful Sahara to the Caribbean-like like Saloum delta, and giving Cher a ride to boot. Africa is a wonderland.
Noraly, I'm so very thankful for finding your channel. You have shown me parts of the world that I haven't seen before and I will mostly never see for myself. And I'm sure there are many trials and tribulations in your travels but I am also thankful that you choose to focus mostly on the positive.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who's amazed at the beauty of Africa!!! Who knew???? Not this ignoramus (pointing my finger at myself).
Yes africa is beautiful but unfortunately the western news portrayed africa so bad , but we have everything here
Great to see good people protecting the beach like that
Geweldig weer om te kijken , van de woestijn naar een en al groen.
Je drone beelden zijn geweldig om te zien , dan krijg je een heel ander beeld.
En de vriendelijkheid van de mensen is fantastisch , kunnen we hier nog wat van leren hoor.
Kijk al weer uit naar je volgende film.
Stay safe , and god bless 🍀🙏🏼
I think Senegal has just gone on my bucket list. So inspirational!
Come visit us 🥰🥰 You welcome anytime in sénégal
You won’t regret it. There’s plenty more beautiful places to see like “gorré”
This is by far your best footage on this adventure Noraly. I love everything about it and the way you interact with people is heart warming.
The drone shots were magically beautiful, the people were 😍😍😍, the Island mood transpired and I loved every second of this video! 🥰
I can never get enough of Itchy Boots! 😍🥰🤩🤗
What a great cost effective way to reduce beach erosion. We spend millions and achieve very little. Lessons to be learnt. Great episode Noraly, thanks, take care.
I am finding it so refreshing to experience these places virtually through your videos.
It can be very easy to develop a lop-sided view of different parts of the world if all we have for our source of information
are the brief things we hear about in the news.
Your videos bring these places alive and help us to better understand what daily life is like for the people who live there,
and make it easier to see that underneath all of the cultural differences we really are more alike than we realize..
Hard to believe we are up to episode 31 already. It seems like this adventure started just a few weeks ago!
I agree. Good times go fast.
It did only start a few weeks ago
@@Badlander87X 12 or so (for us)
I know right. Time flies when she's having fun!
It is those people we meet along the way that add a special flavour to our lives...just think of how rich your life is becoming by doing what you are doing now...and in an almost accidental way, how we (the viewers) are sharing those riches !!! Great soundtrack too by the way !!!
An immediate thumbs up👍 What an amazing day of exploration around the delta, meeting some very friendly locals, once again the drone footage puts where you are into perspective by showing us the remoteness of that biosphere and how to get there and the efforts they are making to fight the rising sea and you were the first motorcyclist there. Bravo Noraly, another wonderful video.
GO ITCHY BOOTS, GO ... 🏍🏍🏍
The people you meet are amazing and diverse. You have surprises everywhere you go. Fabulous scenery makes trudging through the sand well worth it.
An amazing episode. You interact and connect with total strangers so effortlessly giving a lift to a total stranger, have not seen you do that until now and again getting invited for a meal, is all almost surreal.e Very interesting areas to ride too, through those trees and remote villages. Thank you Noraly for bringing another unknown world to see and enjoy. Bottled water in A place like that. Every bit of this episode is full of surprises and interest .
The videos you produce are fascinating. Much better than any travel show on tv. I never thought that any of the countries that you have visited in Africa would be so interesting. Stay safe!
A charitable balancing act giving a lift to a fellow man and then an encounter with a charitable French guy helping his fellow man. The world is a good place for those with open hearts. Norally the superstar!
Noraly..........It is probably just me but you seem to be a bit more relaxed since
you have reduced the video schedule and yet I feel like I am seeing more.
You are amazing in that you are such a good ambassador for motorcyclists and
people in general. You have an uncanny ability to find interesting people and
situations like the beach erosion project. Take care and safe travels.
I would like to say thank you! for taking us along to places many of us will never get to see. Your inspirational in your abilities and the journey you are taking.
🇨🇦
Wow , what an adventure .As long there was a trail, you don’t hesitate to go through. You are a courageous friendly lady and an ambassador of your country. Thanks for sharing , its another adventure for us . Take care !
Truly amazing in every way. You have reached the end of the island and you find somebody that has made it his mission for 10 years to stop the beach errosion. And talk about riding skills. Take on a passenger to ride narrow bridges with no railings in most spots and pass within inches of donkey carts. As many of the comments have said; your willingness to learn the language, to smile at all you encounter makes people open their doors for you and they want to help you find your way. Keep up the great videos.
🇮🇹 Here WE are, folks! Gooood Afternoon, Noraly, Internet, sisters and brothers, let’s gooooo, as usual! 🇮🇹
Just sat down with my coffee and here is Noraly! Hell yeah! Let's Go!
Hello again!
@@wernerschmidt4481 Gooood evening
This is the ultimate island hopping episode. Loving the smiles of all the people you come across and the surprises you encounter
Stay safe!
Simply love it, love it, love it! Your kindness, the remote places, the drone flights, the random people you introduce to us, the whole package of Itchy Boots!
You're twice the woman I am! You deal with situations in the most natural and friendly way.
I watch your videos religiously because unlike a lot of things on TH-cam, I know I’ll feel better after I watch yours . There is a reason you have so many subscribers .👍
Wow, Noraly the people are again very friendly towards you. Your drone footage is absolutely awesome. The sand riding is like the Sahara and Namibia....... You really show us the world. Thanks gal 👍👍👍🗺️🇿🇦🇿🇦
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful !
Landscapes, people, colors and feelings….
The villagers must be amazed at a solo female blond hair motorcycle rider, and traveling freely in their island….Noraly is bringing a little western culture to her new friends as well as they to her…Noraly’s travels make her a unique motorcycle rider that we all envy…as we all watch from the sidelines, Noraly is always a step ahead of everyone in her travels….safe travels Noraly…
Sunday morning Itchy Boots - I think I can get used to that 😊 Thanks for your hard work taking us with you on your travels. Ride safely and enjoy your amazing adventure!
Just sat down with my coffee and Noraly popped up on my screen. Sunday morning cannot get better than this!🙏
Except its Mon morning in Aus have to squeeze it in the rush
Travelling for miles no petrol stations hardly anywhere must be very large petrol tank on bike
Wow...the landscapes change so drastically from episode to episode. It's fascinating.
From endless deep sands to ocean wetlands almost overnight.
Interesting free travel tip provided to us by our Noraly...if you plan to visit Africa, it's a good idea to speak some French.
I was thinking this trip was not going to be as visually interesting as others, but I was completely wrong. It's as beautiful as any...
What a enchanting day ! Couldn't imagine losing 10-12 meters a year. They must fear loss of entire island, peninsula.Thanks Taxi !
I only have to say . If one has to take a geography class , just watch your videos and learn in fun and interesting way . Keep going Noraly , show us the real world ❤
What a different place, water everywhere. Hope they can protect their shores. Thank you for taking us to all these places. Be safe.
Absolutely beautiful, didn't even know we have such amazing places in Africa, a real eye opener. Thank you Noraly for showing us the beauty of Africa 💕
So much info and to learn here. This channel should go world wide in every school! It's just great.
For a person, who prefers to travel alone and to be so independent and alone, you have so amazing side, which seems to be so willing and able to take with cheerfulness contact to total strangers. I am so envious of such ability to face humanity.
"Random encounters": That is what we live for ! Great day meeting people on the bike in Senegal!
It's amazing how much the scenery changes, your drone footage really brings it home, fantastic. Nice friendly people. Shame the beech is eroding, so nice.
National TV corporations hardly ever produce programes of this quality. The drone flight over the delta was amazing, I've never seen that area in any travel or nature documentary before, the same with the simple yet effective coastal erosion project.
This was a wonderful episode Noraly! Thank you so much for letting us come along on your journey! :)
As has happened several times before, the river crossing of a PEDESTRIAN bridge shows the wisdom of riding a lightweight bike! (Courage still helps!) Tires: a harder compound could very well be the problem. So difficult to pack extras as with Basanti.....
I have found that STIFF sidewalls have very little reaction to low air-pressure. I have ridden many miles off-road with a stiff flat tire!
Stunning scenery, wonderful people.
What a world we live on!
Google says the huge tree is from the genus Ceiba (SAY-ba) perhaps species pentandra (kapok tree). The boabab trees we've been seeing are genus Adansonia species digitata. Both trees are in the scientific family Malvaceae. While the boabab trees can be thousands of years old the Ceiba trees are more likely hundreds of years old. The Ceiba trees can grow 13 feet (4 meters) in one year. I relearned that genus and higher scientific names are capitalized and lower than genus is not.
The fruits of kopak tree float in water and some thought to have found their way from Latin America to west Africa.
Once again, Noraly becomes the tourist attraction.
Each time I'm watching on a new episode, I'm looking forward to Noraly's drone views as they really shows the spectacular terrains and surroundings of the places she visited.
I do not know how you always seem to meet interesting people during your journeys, but I love the interaction !
The trip around India, Europe, Russia, South Africa and all the way from the tip of South America to the top of Alaska abd now North West Africa has been great. If you have not seen them please go and look at them. This lady is a freat adventurer and she took us along.
1st man to ride taxi passenger on Noraly's moto, now to become Senagal famous ! 😎
Excellent videography - well done, again, Noraly. And, interesting idea to protect the coast line. I believe such projects will become important for many countries, sooner than later.
What a beautiful island! Your adventure has been amazing! Ride safe Noraly!
Seems so friendly there. Beach projects are needed in many places. There’s one place I go to at the Jersey shore that used to only flood during extreme high tides (not storm related). Now every high tide it floods. This change only took about five years. Now there’s a major rebuild going on. I’m learning a lot from you and Myron Cook about geology and ecosystems. Safe travels Noraly.🌲
Noraly, You have this ability to take charge of all situations without the people knowing it. They come to you knowing what you are doing is good. Your showing the world all the goodness that is everywhere! I’m not great at explaining, people NEVER FIND YOU A THREAT. Just the opposite! Your smile your classic laugh! So good.❤️
In this episode the nature is so beautiful and unique. It's so different to all other places I have seen yet. It's like a mix of sump, tropical & savanna trees and desert.
Great journey Noraly, you are incredible ! Greetings from a Portuguese guy.
Can't believe what a beautiful area that is. I'd live there in a heartbeat!
In this video, Noraly once again proves that she makes the vest best adventure content on TH-cam combined with some of the best videography, scenery, editing, scoring and narration for any video genre! Just magnificent, Noraly, thank you!!
Exactly 💯!! She is a real and explorer and story teller!! And that ability to try to communicate in any language.. wow she is amazing.
The shells are slippery because they are flat-ish plates sliding on plates? The vastness of this atmosphere to sea shell carbon storage is so huge and green and amazing. The beach-stabilizing project…inspiring. What a wonderful peaceful place! Thanks for two-wheel-pioneering through such an interesting delta.
Super épisode rempli de belles choses et de gens heureux. Et le chanceux qui a fait un tour de moto, assis derrière Noraly. Merci de nous montrer que le Monde est aussi beau!! 🙏💗
Fascinating video! An over-100-year-old man living on a remote island with family is wonderful to see; and the ongoing sand-recovery project is simple yet fantastic in its effectiveness. It seemed many people stared at Noraly as an unusual sight - now we know a motorbike is a rarity!😀
I REMEMBER as a young entrepreneur Iwas always kidded to be exiled to the FRENCH Foreign Legion in west Africa................. if I screw up one more time.
I doubt he really is 100 lol.
Best of all. Goosebumps all the way through. Thrilling.
Such an amazing change between the desert sand and the lush green delta. It's like you traveled to another world completely. I've been trying to calculate the size of that massive tree.
you are like the only channel i check every day for a new video lol; i've always been curious about this part of the world and it looks so beautiful. living vicariously through you.
At the moment, she only posts videos on Sundays and Wednesdays.
This is a lady of all seasons.....Bigup
Noraly picking up hitch hikers now. Wow. So good to see another positive view on the world rather than the news crap we see daily.
Islands of Saloum delta with so many goats and shells. You are such a plain Jane among the colorfully garbed women of the islands. Love seeing you and the island from the drone is so special, thank you. New experiences with Alaska in the sand should help in future sand situations. Enjoyed the very long narrow bridge ride. Surprise meeting a cordial white Frenchman beach erosion mitigator. 👍 ❤
It's a female Dutch motorcycle rider day, Itchy Boots and Lotte Van Drunen. Lotte is winning another championship right now. 15 years old and her first season on 250s, you can believe it when you see her ride.
Is lotte Jason´s sister?
@@tzandsch From what I have seen, they aren't related.
I love every moment of your travels. The people the geography. Your are a blessing.🇨🇦
Super Amazed !! Its pure good fortune for being able to see these Itchy Boots vlogs. I say so because the content is a story line of a journey into the unknown boldly . What we see in this part of Africa is something which one never expects to see. One hears the name Africa and the picture that flashes upon the screen of one's imagination is that of vast African bush plains with Zebras , Giraffes and other wild animals roaming around. But this isn't so and one gets to see something totally new. Hats off to you Noraly once more. Luck favours the brave , that's too so true for Noraly. She bumps into a frenchman and gets to see a project worth working for. As luck wud have it , people she meets are helpful n kind. God bless you
Your vlogs show so much peace,love and happiness you are an inspiration
