“People with guns are blocking the road”. MEXICO 🇲🇽 |S6-E83| 

It still is a beautiful country , the mountains are awesome, pity about the road blocks it makes it a bit unsure but never the less you make your way safe , thanks Noraly . Stay safe.

The drone footage adds such an extra dimension to your travels. I also love the accompanying music. Very tasteful.

Que lindo y que corage, mucha suerte en tus recorridos. 🇨🇷

Lovely rider, lovely bike, lovely scenery...then "people with guns are blocking the road"! Story of this sad earth isn't it?

Excelente experiencia, buen manejo de la moto. Gracias a dios has tenido mucha suerte. Que pena el haber sabido con antelacion tu llegada a la Ciudad de Oaxaca. Cuando gustes aqui tienes una familia que te recibe con los brazos abiertos. Cuidate y feliz retorno. Saludos y abrazos

At 9.11 mins in this video it reminded me of crete Greece when I went round a simple bend and never expected in hot summer to hit some water a puddle. I went over the edge and lucky for me was found by a melon truck how by luck saw the skid mark which would dry within 5 minutes. broken leg plates but a happy survivor

Thanks Noraly for shering.

OMG what amazing video just be careful up there is dangerous in some places y me encanto la parte que recogiste el dinero y se lo diste ala señora and please stay safe

Me encantan Tus vídeos . Tu trabajo es mi sueño.

I am traveling reverse of your route next month. What road did you take where it was dirt? I would like to use the same route.

I just wanted to thank you for showing Oaxaca I was born and I was there till the age of seven but with some immigration stuff, I haven't been able to go back there since the age of seven. See your video brought me to tiers! My little 3-year-old boy was watching with me I saw tears coming down my cheeks and said what happened, papa? I explained a little bit about home and he hug me and said it's okay papa I love you! Thank you for sharing! Thank you!

This is a goodwill journey! We see many acts of courtesy and respect along the road. Little things like closing and securing the gate, finding money and returning it, kindness to animals - heartwarming. For this, Noraly, we thank you. 😊

Hi Noraly, Now that I have my CRF 300L Honda similar to "Alaska" I watch your videos with extra interest to enjoy how you ride, where you ride and the road surfaces you encounter. I only acquired my Honda less than one week ago. I have ridden it twice so far covering about 15 miles altogether. I am anxious to ride it much more but I am waiting on a lowering link that I ordered to arrive. The little Honda is a bit too tall for me to ride it safely. It is better to lower it to avoid dropping the motorcycle. I like to be able to get both my feet flat on the ground but at 5'-10" tall my legs are too short to manage that with the Honda at factory height. In the meantime I ride my X300 Kawasaki Versys. It is such a joy. If the CRF 300L Honda offers as much joy I fear my face will split from smiling so much. I am 68 years old but still get so much pleasure from owning and riding my motorcycles.

What a great adventure this day was! Thanks for all of the great footage. At night when I put my 8 year old daughter to bed she always likes to watch your adventures. I think you are an amazing hero for my little girl! She is an adventurer like you. Thanks for captivating and inspiring her with a strong female role model.

Everybody can watch this and think how lucky she is to be doing this, but in reality it’s lots of hard work to be able to enjoy life as so. Thanks for taking us along for the ride as always!

Mexico a beautiful but tragic place on the one hand you meet wonderful kind and helpful people but at blink of a eye you can meet very bad people and some have badges money doesn't talk its swears down there I'm not trying to paint a negative picture but you have to really stay on your toes I guess nowadays that applies everywhere. People with guns ,guns in civilian population in Mexico is illegal you cant go to a gun store in mexico there are none except for 1 in the whole country, so if people with guns holding up a road that's either military federales or cartel that happened to me and my pard back in the 80s outside Guaymas, 3 feds with poppers blocking the hi way ,what did they want money 20.00 American dollars later have a good day they searched our bronco lookin for ?we watched them to make sure they didnt plant any dope they said they were lookin for narcotics yeah right this aint the border were in the middle of nowhere no body for miles these cops were hitting up tourist for money , its what they do to get by crazy place I've been down there 8 or 9 times once you get away from the tourist area you understand how it is it's like turning back time I could tell some really crazy stories but if you gave me a choice of either getting dump off either in the middle of mexico or any big city in America I'd take Mexico

“Gly”: I really love a good mountainous vista and that area doesn’t disappoint. Love the drone shots and music transitions especially with the morning sun. Your editing makes us feel like we’re right there with you and it really captures the experience. Take care and safe travels.

Sure can’t plan a route with any kind of schedule. Sounds like Alaska is happy with her new shoes, sprocket, chain, and brakes. She was purring along in all the traffic like a little tiger. Wonderful drone footage as always. You just get better with every video!

One's true character can always be determined by how they respond when they see a "baby donkey". You are a kind and gentle soul Noraly.

You are so resourceful, and never seem to panic. Well done Norally. Ride safe

Just gunna ignore the MS13 tag on the sign in front of the closed gate? 🙄🙄🙄

Ahhh wanting Noraly a little farther north in Mexico has had me watching for these notifications with a little too much anticipation.. buen viaje con suerte mi amiga, la aventura es increíble, RIDE LIKE THE WIND ))

We are happy that you arrived in Puebla safe and sound... We know you had the better judgement of the situation and did the best option there is. Kudos to you Noraly. You deserve an early night and good long sleep ☺️☺️

Mexico's cities are very clean and well organised, from what I see in this video.

Isn't it lovely that Noraly would schedule her uploads on a Friday. Thanks Noraly for making every weekend start with a positive attitude.

Well, that was exciting. You are brave to travel in unpredictable places. Amazingly most of your travels have seemed pretty safe. Bless the people of the world who prefer peace and friendliness. Good work today.

Buen viaje y mucha suerte, si pasas por el centro de México me pongo a tú ordenes para darte alojamiento o si te puedo ayudar de algún modo, y conocerte sería una gran experiencia saludos.

Wow, Puebla. My home town for 3 years. I was enjoying it, also because I was able to explore Mexico on my Harley. Many roads in Mexico would be characterized as offroad in comparison to Europe. Stay safe.

That dirt road and scenery was epic, just stunning. I’d like to thank you for your great filming, it’s incredible, no fast moves , just smooth and very enjoyable . Have fun and stay safe💕

we drove from Puebla to Oaxaca and back in 2016. Roadblocks are still there, wow. Police wont do much because they support them I guess. Stay strong people of Oaxaca!

Whenever I get nervous about your safety, I remember that you were able to upload the episode, so you’re good! Great drone video👍🏼Beautiful mountains! So glad that you are prudently cautious. Keep your head on a swivel, while you enjoy the beauty of mexico🙏🏼

What an evolution from your 1st year on road journey with the Royal Enfield. More robust bike, better video equipment. Fantastic editing will keep this series of documentaries valid and educational for years to come. Truly a breakthrough in travel videography.

I find Mexican towns to be very beautiful in that they have central plaza, beautiful cathedral and in most cases beautiful colours painted on the walls. Hope to visit one day

As a recent subscriber , I very much respect Noraly's spirit of adventure , pragmatic confidence , and street-smart resourcefulness .Vicariously riding with Noraly much is shared in the epic scenery , friendly people, and interesting local cuisines.

You did a great job navigating through all the rough spots. Despite the troubles, it was a beautiful ride. Thanks for taking us along. Go For It

What an amazing dirt road you took through the mountains! The views were incredible and the drone footage added that element of how beautiful the landscape really is. The cacti 🌵 are “huge”! I’ve never even seen a picture of one like that! Your lunch looked good and the lady was so nice. Glad you could pick a safe route around the road block and then find a nice place for the evening! Thanks for sharing another day in your adventure as you travel northward. Ride safe and have fun Noraly!

This is an important lesson from an experienced world traveler. Recognize and avoid potential danger, be pleasant and respect their culture. Never criticize your host country. Bravo Noraly.

For the reference, torta in Mexico has a different meaning. It's actually a bread stuff with food inside like subway. You should try it next time! 🤤🤤🤤

Hi Noraly, I’m a geologist, I’ve been working as an hydrogeo in Chile, Colombia, an then travelled all around South America backpacking on public transportation or in the back of a pickup. Took no time for me to get seriously addicted to your amazing videos! Que te vaja bien! Cuidate!

Noraly every time I watch your adventures I firmly believe the Discovery Channel should hire you to be the Host of the Expedition Unknown series, you are trulu amazing and the adventures are so insightful. Stay Safe and have fun :)

Noraly felicitaciones,eres muy valiente,recorrer los caminos de esta américa tan hermosa,pero tan llena de peligros, Dios te bendiga.

THAT was a bit intense watching it on RU-vid! Can't imagine how uncomfortable that was for you trying to navigate it. But, as always, like a champ!! Well done!

The things that warm my heart again and again is how you notice and appreciate things like a beatiful sunrise, moutain ranges and your kindness to people! Glad the new tires work for you. Hope you sleep well as you really needed it. Stay safe!

Señorita Noraly muy buenas noches, que excelente vídeo!!! y las tomas del dron y admiro mucho su coraje y valentía en esta travesía que usted lo tiene planificado, felicitaciones y muchos éxitos.

Amazed at the amount of roadblocks and police do nothing. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Folks on the road with guns in mexico?????? I would never have expected that in 100 billion, billon, years!!!! Its a place everyone loves to live and never ever leave!!!

That was nice to be able to give the woman her money back, ten seconds later and you never have known who lost it. Nice video as always. 👍

This was a kind of action and drama ride full of thrill, lot of moving parts, great 👍 Alaska did well in her new boots🤓 awsome drone shots

Just recently found your channel. Although i was born in mexico, i didnt grow up there but i love seeing the scenery through your videos. Hopefully one day i can go back and explore these roads

Just have to play things by ear sometimes, right! I’m glad Alaska has new tires! They look much better suited! Stunning scenery Noraley! Ride safe, be careful! Will be looking forward to the next video!

Dear Noraly, I can't help to feel worried and upset for the things you are recording (which are your own life experiencies) going through my beloved México. If it helps you to know, we have now a government that is trying to revert a state of things that we as a nation had been carrying for generations. Those things converge on corruption and a permanent state of impunity and lack of justice. I know it sounds too simple to try to explain in a parragraph a complex situation. For what I see, you just passed one of the most important Huachicol zones. Huachicol is a slang word used to name alcohol of a very cheap kind and dubious origin. Now it is used to name stolen gasoline, but also gas and diesel from national pipelines which is sold cheaply, most of the times adulterated to make it more profitable. Two years ago, the new federal government started a head on battle to stop Huachicoleros, finding out it was a very lucrative business that went all the way up to the top brass of past governements, but also included many people that made their living stealing fuels. Now, as happens when narcos get unemployed, they change to extorsion, kidnapping and other activities in order to mantain their way of life. Take care. Many changes are now ongoing in México. But things are all but settled I´m afraid. If there is a way I could help, let me know by sending a message thru twitter. @josedejesusval6 and would gladly help and share phone number or mail adress If I can be of any help. I live up in north central México. Have a safe trip.

You are one beautiful and adventurous woman

"El respeto al derecho ajeno es la paz" Respecting the rights of others is peace. Wise words by Benito Juarez. I wish we could go by those words more. Great video as always, Noraly.

Such awesome roads and drone sights, so well blended with orchestral music ... an absolute pleasure to see every episode. The overgrown cactii reminded me of the upsidedown trees in your African adventure. Everyone in Mexico has been helpful and friendly, and you gladly return the favor. So far, so good! Cheers to international rockstar Noraly - Itchy Boots!

I'm impressed I worked all over Mexican Republic including Puebla I drove my BMW and will always remember those beautiful sites . You are a very brave and passionate woman! I love it! Great Adventures!

No doubts ! Your eyes have a special ability to see some thing which a normal human eyes can’t see ! Damn sure ! Many people here feeling the energy through the lenses of your cameras ! Thank you Noraley !

Hola Noraly como estás ,ahorita voy a ver éste video ,todo los días estoy viendo tus videos hasta verlos todos ,y todos hasta aquí súper emosionantes .🇪🇨🇪🇨🇪🇨 ECUADOR.

Saludos Noraly desde pachuca Hidalgo, se pasas por este rumbo, recomiendo pasar por lugares preciosos del parque nacional del mineral del chico. Abrazos

I'm so happy you made it safe and sound. That's all that matters really. I'm so happy the new tires work well for you too. Stay safe out there. You are always in my prayers. As always, the drone footage is outstanding. Thank you.

Be careful Noraly, greetings from Puebla México

Excelente video! Y sigue con esaa precauciones, lamentablemente todavía encontraras situaciones parecidas, pero me encanta tu fortaleza 💪. Saludos desde la Ciudad de México.

I'm from New Zealand 🇳🇿 and I have to say Mexico is Beautiful ❤️

The drone views in the mountains were great. The riding through the mountains with the music backing track starting at about 16 minutes was very calming to me and very enjoyable. So glad you found a way around the roadblock and made it safely to Puebla. Looking forward to seeing and learning more about Puebla. God Bless.

Saludos desde Venezuela, ese letrero que estaba en ese porton (puerta grande) te dice: que puedes pasar y volver a cerrar el porton , para que los animales no salgan de esa proviedad que es una finca ( hacienda grande) y que debes cerrar nuevamente , que respecte el drecho ajeno ( derecho de la persona ) en cuidar su propiedad. Al igual en otras partes los hacendados (duenos de haciendas o fincas) colocan varios tubos separados en el ´piso o en puentes, es para que el ganado no se salga de esa propiedad, ya que el ganado le tiene miedo a esos tubos en el piso, las vacas respectan mucho eso, porque saben que se pueden hacerse daño. Saludos desde Venezuela.

Are we all not gonna notice how happy that girl was when given back her precious little money. Those little acts of kindness are a sacred nourishment in this wretched world. We hold hope

Take care while traveling in Mexico insome states it is very dangerous right now, and NEVER ride alone in the night, try to put in contact with another riders from Mexico in different states so they can support You in case of any problem also, good luck in everything and Enjoy your trip

Beautiful, mesmerizing n wonderful vlog. Mexico is a beautiful place. All the time i felt i was ridding wid you. Ride safe n have fun. Love from India!

No difficulties can stop this girl. The route and that drone shots... Dear Noraly you just made my day... Keep going....

When I am not hanging out with friends, I am "Itchybooting" Thanks for taking us on your Fantastic journey.

Fantastic; these memories will be with you for the rest of your life. I once travelled all around Mexico for four months in a row (some 24 years ao ...), incredible experience and yes, these memories will stick.

What beautiful scenery in Mexico. Your personal security and safety must always be the top priority and I believe trusting your instincts you have build on the many years you’ve been doing this will serve you well. Keep up the great videos enjoy and stay safe.

You just ride up to the armed roadblock and say, Hey, I have new tires. Let me pass.

As a born Mexican living in the USA all of my life, I give u so much credit to u as a woman for driving by yourself around Mexico to places I never been or seen before.

Hi Noraly, la Guardia Nacional está impedida por el nismo gobierno, pará intervenir en éste tipo de bloqueos. Sigue con tu viaje y FELICIDADES

I am also traveling with you since your India trip with 'Basanthi' keep growing dear friend Lots of Love from INDIA.... Take care....😍💐💐💐😇

Incredible ride through the mountains. Loved this one

Noraly, I’m continually impressed with your production quality of your videos. There is a rhythm in them that carries us along. The sweeping drone footage, music, conversations, experiences and at times dicey circumstances all come together for some pretty compelling episodes. You handle yourself well, though I do at times pray for your safety.

The girl looked so surprised when you caught up with her with her dropped money. Watching your channel makes my heart grow founder and it does restore some tiny bit of hope for humanity in my mind.

You're very brave going through those roads in Mexico. I'm half Mexican half salvidorian and I would never drive in Mexico I've seen and heard to many bad things. You be safe out there 🙏🏼

Noraly. El cartel decía. " El respeto al derecho ajeno es la paz" Palabras pronunciadas por el Gran Benemérito de América Benito Juárez . Espero impacientemente tus capitulos. Feliz viaje por tierra mexicana y espero verte por Cuba en algún momento.

Great weather and nice riding , off road and on in this episode. What a stressful situation with the road block, you did a amazing job figuring your way around that. Happy you made it to your destination. Stay safe and looking forward to seeing what’s next.

14:55 tortas in Mexico means sandwich, not a cake, usually made by carnitas (pulled pork) also hams lettuce and cheese, the variety is enormous. I am aware that in another Latin countries torta mean cake, but in this case im pretty sure is what I told you 😉

Hi Noraly the sweet person from the Netherlands, I watched some of your videos but I do not comment often though I always like. I want to take the time to thank you very much for allowing me to make those travels with you because not everyone's personal situation is allowing this and I know psychology enough to know that your mind does not make the difference between seeing a travel or living it like you do so I travel in my mind by simply following your journey. Thank you/Merci/Gracias Noraly!

I am aware of at least 2 world travelers that have had problems entering the USA because of places they spent time in while traveling. I seriously hope you don't have problems here. I believe you will show things I have never heard of here in my own country. Now I'll watch the video.

I love watching you and your travels. I can see all places you've been like I'm riding with you. It makes me inspired and so excited about you. Take care and don't stop recording. Love yah!!!

I love your channel. Your adventures. Very proud of you. Very brave. Question: 1. how do you get you aireal views ? Is it a drone . 2. Does someone ride behind you. Or are you truly alone riding. It amazes me, your sceneries, so peaceful and beautiful. Again stay safe and God be with you. 💜💜

Noraly I love watching your videos. I envy your editing skills in a good way. I hope you get to visit the state of Michoacán. I recommend visiting the monarch butterfly 🦋 sanctuary and the Paricutín volcano 🌋the terrain and weather remind me of Colombia. Also Michoacán is the largest producer of avocado 🥑 in the world. Happy travels

Youre a warrior to ride as much as you are. The fact that you are solo and a woman in Mex. doing this. Kudos to you!!! All the best to you in your journey and enjoy the beautiful mexican scenery!

Wonderful, Interesting Day! Albeit , tough. Thank you for living such an interesting life, Noraly! Thank you very much for sharing it! The gearing should have provided more torque, but less gas mileage. However, the larger circumference of the new tires should have compensated for the mileage. Overall, a very positive outcome and EXCELLENT decision. I'd like to see you well that unusual tire brand wears? God Bless you!

Maravilha das MARAVILHAS...Seus passeios de hoje foram muito bonitos...Que tranquilidade viajar pelas montanhas...Pena ter de se deparar com estes bloqueios...Infelizmente nas Américas Latinas...é muito comum...Os Estados são CORRUPTOS...e só sobrevivem "apoiando" os Traficantes...Pena...pois somos povos pacíficos e cordiais...Aproveite o que der...vale a pena...Boas viagens e abraços...

Noraly, tendrías que informarte mejor antes de atravesar diversos lugares!🙈😜 Uno nunca sabe lo peligroso que podrían ser! Muy buen vídeo, continúa así!🥰 Y buena vida siempre!💪

What I like most about Noraly's filmmaking is she's curious and feeds my curiosity too. I'd ask the same questions and get answers first hand. This episode was like an action drama.

Classic Itchy Boots episode, amazing editing.. and by that I mean, great decision to let the first person camera flow for longer than usual, I think, it was pure moto riding bliss 🥰on those winding roads and the views were stunning 👀 . Glad you got out safely out of that dubious stretch of the road, and good observation - the only guys with guns, lots of them, where the national guard, and they were in the wrong place.. just siting there 🤔

❤So happy I found your blog. I love getting to go along on the adventures. Praying for your safety.

Tu honestidad habla muy bien de ti ., cuídate mucho por favor hermosa werita saludos desde México🇲🇽🇲🇽

Mexico is going through a security crisis in most of the country but especially in the south where political leaders use indigenous communities for their purposes and this includes organized crime. I invite you to visit Jalisco where fortunately this is not happening

Noraly, I recently discovered your channel and adventure. Your passion and bravery are exceptional, challenging, an motivating. Godspeed. Much love from Texas.

Great riding! Not sure many people would even think about driving through Mexico. A very courageous and deliberate life!

Mexico is such a wonderful country with many sights to see and roadblocks and people with guns and bandits, makes it so interesting to be there.

My Mexican girlfriend and I have driven many kilometers outside of Mexico city including Puebla.... and in my opinion Puebla is one of the most beautiful cities.... there is much culture history and beauty in Mexico.... and it's sad that it's image has been tainted by popular media and too much focus is on the negative oftentimes..... happy that you made it through safely.
