Changing my US dollars at the border of MAURITANIA |S7 - E17| 

I like how the attendant at the gas station was smoking near your fuel drenched fuel bladder. 😳Good times in Mauritania.

When I get stressed at a cliffhanger, I remind myself that I’m watching a video that she edited after the fact, so she is in fact okay.

So that one person (Noraly) release better and more content in a month than National Geographic in a year with 2000 employees. Just wow!

What I’ve learned from watching this channel from time to time is no matter where you go in the world people are people. Most people are good and are willing to help.

What a cliff hanger ending for me to worry about all weekend. Another epic Itchyboots adventure.

This is sheer bravery Noraly, one word, absolute respect. Prayers for your safety and the Footage is jaw dropping.

Noraly, I have been following you since your first trip from India, have watched almost all of your series, in fact inspired by you I did a recent motorcycle trip from Austria to Pakistan covering over 25000 KMs. I remember when you said “ which track to take” myself riding in the Mongolian mountains where I lost the orientation. But you, riding in the desert, all alone, nothing around, heat, deep sand, have earned a next level of respect. Not everyone has the courage to do this.

Showing us areas millions of us will never see.. truly awesome ❤

The guy smoking and pumping gas. 🔥 Crazy!

Did you ever watch one of Itchy Boots videos and realize that a simple thumbs-up just wasn't enough? What an epic journey to share with us!

I'm mauritanian i never seen this place before thank you for showing me my country

It was a good thing the petrol fumes spilled on the extra bag did not ignite from the garage assistant's cigarette :-) I am so impressed how Noraly confidently approaches all people and is never phased when groups of money changers gather around her for example. She doesn't seem concerned about being mugged and perhaps it is this confidence and trust in people that always gets her through.

OMG Noraly, so hope you're OK, and got Alaska sorted out. What a cliffhanger ... Monday is a loooooong time to wait! 🤔🙏😎

I've watched every episode of all seasons but this visit to Morocco and Mauritania tops the "adventure" meter. Please stay safe.

As much as the problem with Alaska is worrisome we know that got it sorted by the fact that she posted this video. All we have to do is worry/wonder how long it took and how was she able to cope. Thanks for posting as always. Best wishes for your continued safety, All of your subscribers care about you. 🏍

Now I am convinced you are the bravest woman I know! Some of your interactions in this episode were potentially dangerous but you did not show any fear. Mad respect

I swear Noraly can read our minds while we're watching. About the time i think "that would make great drone footage" she inserts said drone footage. I love seeing, from a different perspective, how Noraly and Alaska fit in to the larger surrounding terrain. You get a sense for how very small she and her bike really are compared to the larger empty desert. What a brave individual you are Noraly !

I know it wasn’t planned, but that’s one heck of a cliffhanger. Now we must wait until Monday. Best of luck wherever you’re at now. Ride safe and have fun. 🇺🇸

Noraly's music is always spot-on.

Noraly, Your tour selections are just amazing not to also mention just what a very brave person you are. not many woman would care to endue the sheer loneliness and the risks involved with these kinds of adventures.however congratulations from us all in kiwi land NEW ZEALAND.

People I know who have been to Mauritania have said it is to dangerous to travel there and were very happy to get out in good shape. Be Safe and Be Very Careful. 🇨🇦

It's somewhat comforting to see that Noraly is carrying what appears to be a Garmin Inreach satellite communicator.

18:33 The sight of a long line of trains transporting iron ore in the middle of the desert is majestic. From a distance, it looks like a procession of ants. Very impressive.😲

So I've come to the conclusion that there aren't enough superlatives to describe you so I will just leave it at "amazing, stunning and breathtaking." No words really do justice.

After seeing the cliffhanger that Alaska won't start. Ramdan all the way in Morocco: no problem I fix

Amazing pictures of the train behind you Noraly with sand and blue sky , would look fabulous as a poster or photograph.

The iron ore train was awesome, reminded me of the time in 1975 I worked for Hamersley Iron Pilbara Western Australia and serviced the trains that bought iron ore in from the west to be exported to Japan..one of my jobs was the hose out the dead kangaroos.😃

Had to laugh when the guy filling you up was smoking around petrol😮.As for dodgy cars, remember catching a taxi in Kenya with Army mates the petrol tank was a 5ltr plastic container under the drivers seat next to battery.We couldn't make out why it was so drafty then realised there was no windscreen😅.Great times and thankyou for taking us on your journey.

You're a brave human this is not easy and By the way, you are right Money in Mauritania is confusing even for me as a mauritanienne, not to scare you but be more careful with who you're changing money frome in general who you deal with and also remember don't judge the country based on some silly situations and finally I hope you have a safe trip.

Traversing all different kinds of roads, countries and meet all different kind of people. This is really something else.

Have been watching you in your adorable videos from your start journey from India, however in between missed some, along with me my mother also watched and was very glad to see, as she was a very strong and lived her life in educating children especially girls, she always said that the girls should be courageous and self sustainable, she passed away 2 years ago, whenever i see your videos I miss her as she mostly accompanied me while watching. God bless you 🙏🙏🙏

Hi Noraly. I helped build those blue and beige locomotives in London Ontario,Canada. What a small world.

May God protect you from all harm. Your follower from Morocco 🇲🇦❤🏍️🏍️🏍️

Got a bad feeling about these guys, this place. Time for a little R&R Noraly. Like in the Lake District.

Keep spreading you smile and positive thinking around the world You make it better episode by episode!

I've been interested to see in both Morocco and Mauritania how completely unfazed the men have been meeting a young woman travelling alone on a motorbike, at the petrol stations and check points for example. Especially considering some of the journies Noraly has either just completed, or still to complete. Totally unfazed. Just friendly, interested, and helpful. Fabulous. Love it.

Whenever I think your stories can't get any better, they do. And this one a cliffhanger to boot. I just can't imagine doing what you're doing. And alone.

Great stuff Noraly, another fantastic adventure. Don't worry about the people moaning that there are not enough trees in your Sahara videos ! They are probably the same ones that would say the Arctic is a bit too snowy ! ;-) 😂😂💪👍

One thing I've learned watching these videos is 'don't sweat the small stuff'. With each encounter I'm wondering, how is this going to pan out? Noraly always keeps a cool demeanor and always forges ahead. Incredibly inspiring.

I don't know why you choose to do your vlog in English, but as I am an American born English speaker, I appreciate that you do. I do like to hear your attempts to communicate in the various languages that your encounter. You seem to always have good interactions with the locals. You are so fearless.

I don’t find your desert riding boring at all! Bring it on, and safe travels always!

I love this channel it takes me back 40 years and brings back all the emotions that riding a bike gives you.

🇮🇹 Here WE are, folks! Gooood Afternoon, Noraly, Internet, sisters and brothers, let’s goooooo, as usual! 🇮🇹

You are such a brave woman

Thanks Noraly you’re awesome 👍🏻😎🏍️

What a big difference between Morocco and Mauritania! The former looks more modernized. Travel these huge stretches of sand WOW. I hope the problem with the pump will be solved.. I'm holding my breath. Good luck!!🛻👍👍👍

Maybe this train transported the iron for your next Honda. Well, if you ask me...... I think the cars in Nouadhibou look quite good for wrecks. About Alaska not storting. I was once a car mechanic and in the Dutch language we make a difference between not "starting" and not "aanslaan" ,means it doesn't by run itself. The solution for both problems couldn't be more different. Not starting *battery, *starting engine, *cable from battery to starting engine disconnected, *starting relay * starting button. So you push the starter button and hear nothing. Not: yiebeyiebeyiebeyiebe Not running: you push the button or turn the key and you hear the starting engine turning, (yiebeyiebeyiebe) the combustion engine, but this isn't going to run by itself. Vroemvroemvroem. Problems: *sparkplugs, *gas, *engine flooded and much more I know ! So for the roadside assistente it is good to know what's the problem. But the professionals like ADAC, ANWB, AA, RAC have many stuff on board. How this is in Mauritanië...I don't know

"Catching" the train - fun! Oy, the end of this episode!! Because you posted the video, at least we know you are not a well-hydrated skeleton out in the desert somewhere. 😁

Total respect, bigger cajones than anyone I've met.... go girl and stay safe!!

you are the bravest person I know !! the utmost respect and admiration to you !! god be with you .

Wow -- that petrol station operator was smoking while pumping -- yikes! I don't know why I got a bit of goosebumps when you greeted that train but, hey, it happened. I'm trying to remember now where it was that you raced a train -- somewhere in the lower USA, I think. Well, I'll just have to go back and watch again, LOL. Your delight in adventuring is contagious -- love it! But in the last seconds . . . Alaska won't start -- oh no! Again, I remind myself that you are safe, but jeepers, Monday (and your next video) can't come soon enough now . . .

You should remind Alaska that she's a Honda and to snap out of it.😄

It is amazing how many cars that train pulles.

I know this route from Noadhiboy to Choum , I did it in 2003 , in 4x4, and I burst a wheel with a piece of train track buried in the sand . My greatest respects for what you do. When one has been there, really appreciate the courage that you put doing these inhospitable routes.

Oh my gosh Noraly after seeing that preview, I won’t be able to sleep until I find out what’s going on with Alaska!! You really know how to keep us in suspense!!!

Wow...that guy with lighted cigarette as he filled a car with petrol 😨.....and the impossibly long train !!!! amazing sights.......but, go safely and I hope Alaska is ok and your journey continues !!!!

9:08 when it comes to money you trust only your mother language 😅

I am afraid for your safety some time Noraly, Please stay safe !! Please !!!

Guy smoking as he fills up the car. Brilliant.

It is “Cliff Hanger Friday”. Will Noraly make it to her destination????? or will she be rescued by a Handsome prince with an English accent? (Probably not) There is a high probability Itchy Boots will figure it out, fix it, start Alaska and arrive at her destination none the worse for wear. Don’t ya just love a happy ending.👍😊

What I’ve learned watching Noraly is there isn’t a problem she can’t handle 💪🏼 Hope the issue with Alaska was quickly resolved!

You are awesome in everything you do..im endlessly impressed by your rides!

Unbelievable the dude at petrol station is having a smoke 😂 and there is Noraly with spilled fuel all over her lagguage 😮

Lawrence of Arabia and Noraly of Mauritania! It's amazing that 3 locomotives can pull that much weight!

usually modern bikes have a switch that shuts engine after a fall maybe a side stand or near the clutch cant exactly call the local breakdown recovery but im sure you get it sorted x

What a cliffhanger! What a journey! Thx for sharing it with us!

Riding alongside the track makes me think of the time I rode the same route on the Classic Paris - Dakar Rally in 2008. That track is not as easy as you are making it look considering you are fully loaded. You left us hanging!! Tot ziens Noraly.

A cliffhanger... er, sand dune hanger! Somehow I bet you got out of there safely. The scene with the train in the background on the horizon was epic! Sandy Trails!

Always praying for your safety and love your adventures

You're such an inspiration!!!! Thank you for being you!

Whoa Itchy Boots...way to leave us hanging. Tho, you've surely figured out that problem. 💥💪🏆✨🎶🤠♥️Much love & prayers for guidance & protection always.

The gas station guy smoking a cigarette was fun, I was waiting for everything to go up in a ball of flame.

For sure this journey is going to be epic! Noraly you definitely have courage to say the least, safe travels

The gas attendant with the cigarette ! Be safe out there Noraly

A lifetime ago I was in Singapore, and needed to get US money changed to local dollars. My friends that lived there told me to go to the money changers on the street and forget about the banks, that scene exchanging US dollars took me right back. Thanks for taking us along Noraly.

Love the shot riding away from the train

Because of your videos.... I just ordered my first motorcycle ... I have a 125 scooter ... but I'm getting ready to do an adventure ride in Thailand and riding brings me such happiness so i needed a full bike. Thank you for this inspirational content

The suspense! always dread breaking down in the middle of nowhere.

Unbelievable insight into these places. Just amazing. Thank you.

Oh Lordy, go from great hotel, to dead engine. It’s a break from starter button to engine. A fuse, relay. Sending some energy to you Noraly. It’s an easy fix, but I’m in Virginia……..😳❤️

Noraly your respect, smile and being so sure of yourself is so strong!!!!!! Yep! You are a pure leader! ❤️

What a massive expanse of desert. Thanks for bringing us along. Ride safe!

Loving the series and the desert riding. Sooo much more than sand! Can't wait now for Monday ❤

Mauretania looks like a post apocaliptic world, I knew it wasn't the most modern country in the world, but I didn't expect this tbh

So many Series 3 Land Rovers there and in Morocco - heaven! I own one here in the UK too, great to see so many working there.

Noraly, you are amazing! I love this series; it really tests all of the skills acquired during the other seasons from maneuvering Alaska to communicating with the locals. Well done.

Casually smoking a cigarette as he fills up cars, bikes and bags 💥

Here you are again, what’s a big plaisir to watch your videos we become addicted to them?

Wow! What an episode! And the ending…. Glad you roll with a Beacon! I hope you are ok… and I am glad you roll heavy with water and food.

I love the desert riding it looks awesome!! Thank you for taking us across Sahara a magical place!! Stay safe!

Itchy Boots... my favorite RU-vid channel! The traffic at the beginning looked pretty chaotic, but nothing like when you were in Turbo. That was the worst. The guy smoking the cigarette at the gas pump was a fool. That money exchange was very weird, very weird. Oh no! Ending on a cliff hanger! Thanks for this video, Noraly! Great work!

Water is gold in the desert, I was stranded 110° F and no shade, 💦 is everything. I pray you are safe , this is visibility a fantastic journey.

The music at the end was fantastic and fitting! What an episode!

Just love the beautiful isolation and openness of the desert. With occasional trees and small villages. Wonderful images. Thank you.

Thanks Noraly for taking us along on your travels!

Now this is challenging, and probably the most dangerous episode I've seen so far. A breakdown in the middle of the desert could be deadly, and I believe all your viewers are concerned for your safety. However, you are a very capable person and have shown your considerable experience in handling problems. I depend on your thrice weekly videos for entertainment and uplifting adventure. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Loving the different camera angles especially when the camera was showing the long train that was in the background. Very encompassing experience. Thanks Noraly.

Time and time again, what an exhilarating adventure. As a passionate adventure rider, you have my respect and admiration, Noraly. Also, the way this episode finishes here, it leaves me worried to see you picked that fall and could not restart the bike. I wish good luck and safe journey until next time!

These desert scenes are beyond epic. Truly incredible riding. They have a desolation and a beauty that really is beyond the descriptive reach of language. Wonderful videography, Noraly!

I was asked by a Moroccan border guard,why am I wanting to go to Mauritania. I soon discovered the meaning of his question😛
