[S1 - Eps. 83] CROSSING INTO KAZAKHSTAN 

5:52 the border guards gave you a salute . that's reserved for officers only and royalty civilian side . so they have huge respect for you . and those Russian bikers are just jealous that a Lady has done traveling then they will do in their lifetime

A smile and pretty blue eyes always help at border crossings. Thanks for sharing your amazing journey.

A funny thought: You mentioned the unfriendly Russian bikers, and I (plus possibly hundreds of your other followers) immediately thought, "How dare they be unfriendly to our Noraly!" You now have 90,000+ friends around the world.

Those Bikers are the typical BMW 1200 Fan boys who drive to Starbucks for a Latte and talk about all the Adventures they WILL NEVER DO.......You are a true Adventurer!!!!

Traffic officer wanted to give you fine, because you didn't stop "stop" traffic sign, but he didn't speak English and just let you go. Hahaha

Hi Noraly, your Adventures are certainly clocking up the miles and the smiles. Thanks again for sharing your videos. Great to see these rarely seen countries.

You, young lady, are a gift to us all who travel vicariously with you! I wish you many blessings in life!

Great video. I really like the way you discuss with border officials. Who can get the usually angry face with your big smile. Keep going.

Thanks for another great video Noraly! You and Basanti are taking thousands of people with you to the most beautiful and exciting roads on this planet! I can't wait for the next video and I wish your trips never end!

The (probably) unintentional cinematography of your conversation with the Kyrgyzstani border guard, with his face in your mirror - is absolutely excellent.

1:50 you blew through a stop sign. That what he was saying.

Good trails, great scenery. Enjoy Kazakhstan, take care of yourself and Basanti x

The only channel for which i enabled the notification (Bell icon😁) and big thumps up.. before watching... #kerala.India

Binge watched your videos from the beginning. So in love with you and your laughter while you talk. Regards Joy

I so love your videos. Whats different your videos is that you are taking us to places that most of the Moto Travel videos do not go. You are showing us a part of the world that very few of us will ever see. Stuck up Russian Moto travelers !!!....there loss. Here they had a chance to meet a famous You Tube traveler and they decide not to be friendly. You said when you were young was the last time you stayed in a dorm hostel...Say What !!!...Norlay...you STILL are young. Stay safe out there and Im looking forward to seeing the rest of your adventures...LOL

This is my first ever comment on youtube or on any other channels. During this pandemic layoff I've started to binge watch S2 from beginning to the last episode. Then went back to S1 to continue until this eps 83. And I must say what a wonderful journey it has been through all the episodes. A virtual journey to all the wonderful places in this world rarely seen on TVs, internet. it's an exhilarating experience to say the least as if I am actually the one wearing the helmet. The choice of background music adds to the excitement and thrills throughout the journey although I wanted to hear more of the roars of Basanti and Dhanno. Now it got me interested in motorbikes though I've never ever drove one in my entire life. I'm past 60 but I think its not yet too late though:). Thank you Itchy Boots and wish you all the best of health during this time of crisis.

Spent 6 weeks in Kazakhstan in 2006. My son is from there. Loved Kaz once we got used to the way things were done there.

Such an awesome adventure. The border guards saluting you may me smile so much! Rest up a bit, and get Basanti back in tip top shape!! Take care of Basanti, and she will take care of you!

Finally you made it to Kazakhstan‼️ Now Basanti can get her well overdue service and attention she needs 😎👍👍

One woman... One motorbike... Itchy boots.... Well-done...

*Head's up!* You managed to capture something quite *rare* on 6:59, the border crossing. Golf MK2 Country is quite the collector car these days, the bright green color is spot on and it's lifted. It may be the real thing, because 4wd is actually really handy with small cars. While in Kasakh, you can ask the locals there about Dimash, he is famous all over the world now. Nice video btw, as always (^_^)

Noraly another very interesting border crossing, you make it look so smooth. Which I’am sure it is not of course you do now have a lot of experience plus your warm smile must all help. As a fellow bike I can say I would never be rude to any other biker never mind those Russians. You always have us your loyal RU-vid followers supporting you every tyre track of the journey. Ride safe keep well. 🙂👍🏍

Hi Noraly, I do like the way you interact with all the people you meet on your travels, you are a joy to watch. thank you so much.

The border crossings are always complicated, but your smile does miracles. These videos are already part of my life, thanks for sharing this fantastic adventure with us.

4:00 Her smiles... This is so clever (not saying it isnt natural or genuine, but ALSO clever). I've gotten unorthodox easier passes due to being nice to the border guards. It really can make a huge difference. It's all in how you treat them.

Im following your discovery all over the world....the landscape of the world brought by you is amazing.....you're so lucky....one in a billions people..!!! Love you so much..🤩😍😍😍😍😍😍

Another great day in your adventures! Seemed to be an easy border crossing into Kazakhstan. It’s amazing where all you’ve been and what you’ve encountered in your travels. It’s so much fun to return to the early episodes and be reminded of your journey! Thanks Noraly and continue to ride safe!

Thank you so much for your hard work in getting all these videos up so we can enjoy. Be safe and enjoy the journey.

12th country Kazakhstan👌 Im so happy for you that your journey is becoming more known, many are supporting you and so far no problems in border crossing👍 Just continue to show and share your passion and love wherever you are bcoz what really brought you this far is what's inside your heart😊 I believe that there's something great waiting for you😉 Enjoy and Safe ride!!💕

Great journey ! Ride safe! Your smile is fantastic and you are a real person! and a true biker!

Noraly, you are proof that a smile and friendly disposition bridges many gaps. Love watching your adventures. Be safe and keep on smiling! Peace!

Hi Noraly! Greetings from Australia! I was lucky enough to come across one of your videos and now I have been binge watching all of your vlogs over the past 2 days!! What a fantastic adventure! Looking forward to your next video! Safe travels!!!

A 22.000 km ride on an 24 HP Himalayan. 👍👍👍 Hats off to you ...and to Basanti, too! 👍👍👍

I know this border;) I was recently in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. Fuel is very cheap there - about 0.30 Euro/liter. Greetings from Poland . ;)

A big thumbs up, indeed. Your ability to negotiate and charm your way around situations is amazing. Happy Trails

Fantastic trip and videos-I wish you and Basanti all the best!

I saw you jump that stop lol, Great ride look forward to seeing Almaty, Thanks for sharing 😊👍

Welcome to Kazakhstan... another border crossing... alhamdulillah smooth ride..

I'd like to think those fantastic local people you meet and those great border guards will some day get a chance to see your videos and see from the comments how much the people appreciate kind and friendly people like them, those Russian bikers are the opposite of everything that's so great about the ordinary people you meet, you deserve a salute wherever you go Noraly, you are a class act for sure.

Your courage and determination are much appreciated! Always enjoy watching your shows.

Zo leuk nu eindelijk eens een Nederlandse motorfiets-avonturierster hier tegen te komen !

I loved the way you tried to sound calm with the police, "Hi, this is the border to Kazakhstan?" Hahaha!

Hi Noraly, I always wanted to do what you are doing but life has not allowed it, I'm pleased to see you travelling you have a great way of dealing with people and adversity. You are an inspiration to all who see your videos, good luck for the future. Keep up the great work.

Your videos Never disappoint. The two salutes at the border show lots of respect for you! Hope they didn't get into trouble.

I laughed when you got the salute. I mentally said the Italian 'salute' in response. A sweet acknowledgement from the soldiers. I also loved your animated visual description of Tajikistan vs Kyrgyzstan roads. :D

Looking forward for your servicing and upgrades video on the basanti noraly! Oh please make it quicker coz i cant wait 😅😆

HI Noraly, from Cincinnati, Ohio. Always looking forward to your great videos, happy smile and gleaming blue eyes. thanks for sharing your journey Noraly.

Go, girl!!! It's a daily routine for me to keep waiting for your daily vlogs (almost) brings a smile on my face too. Ride safe and God bless!

Hi Nora 👋, you doing great, we feel that we traveling with you as pillion rider, we seeing the world through your eyes😎, LOVE 😍 FROM INDIA, & R.E family 😎

16 people beat me ! Damn you're popular ! Great journey, thanks for the ride. Safe journey.

Glad the trip is going well and the weather is good for you be safe looking forward to the next video

Wow, these journeys are amazing. Great to see.

God bless... Stay safe.. More power and courage to you.. Love from Mumbai, India🇮🇳

Alhamdulillah. You made it to Kazakhstan. Enjoy your journey.

Godspeed Noraly. Enjoy the ride & stay save

I crossed that same border at least 20 times. Always something new with those borders guards, as a US passport holder; they tend to TRY many new rules. But the fun part is that drive from the border to Almaty, so awesome. Thank you Noraly for bringing back those fun memories; I wonder when I will be back there crossing it again. Cheers'

Part of the journey is to realize bikers also suffer from tribal mentality, get more than 4 together all of a sudden everyone else is an outsider or intruder, hence I prefer to ride alone or with only a couple of friends and why I enjoy your journey with your can do attitude. Keep smiling.

greetings from Australia, thanks for sharing. buen camino

Another great video Noraly. You have certainly brought together 93,000 people from around the world, regardless of their nationalities! Fantastic effort! Kind regards Greg

It's good to see you back as always..... I bet it's tough to ride in city after all the easy road and off roading you have .... As always have a great time and awaiting for another video....

Your videos are good enough to be a tv series they are brilliant

The only notification I wait for is from Itchy Boots. Thank you Noraly for doing this amazing work. Big fan😎

Hi Noraly, You handled the situation beautifully when you got stopped by the traffic officer LOL.. I love watching your amazing journey with Basanti and thank you for sharing your adventures :) You are awesome and one brave girl 👍. Good riding 🏍..........x

Greetings from Croatia. Excellent professionally done videos with lots of charm and good will. People like you educate the rest of us by showing us ordinary people around the world, who are generally willing to help a stranger - so you show us that there is hope for humanity. The only thing I would like you to change is to organize you spare tires differently - they dont look nice wrapped up in disintegrating plastic cover. Good luck on road and in life!

Thank you for this extra-long extendet Version of the Directors Cut Video and Welcome to Kazaghstan!😉 It is really a big country and I heared a lot of it. Just good things. Almaty also looks like a big, modern Town. You Made a good choice to spend a week there! 👍 A 8-Bed Room? No way! Not one night!😵I always Book a Single Room to have time for myself and fresh Air! I understand you!

Did you work in Atyrau, Kazakhstan? Our son works there for Chevron Oil. Really enjoy your videos....am a subscriber. Be safe and have fun!

Hey Noraly CONGRATULATIONS & Celebrations !!!!! You've reached 100K subs. Well done. Love your videos. Keep going, you bring so much happiness to so many people that watch each of your videos. Stay happy always! Bless you.

Howdy IB! Wow that blue shirt really brings out your blue eye! Thanks for the ride,really enjoy watching you interact with the border agents! Ride on!

Well. Done...good luck and have safe journey...almost complete cetral asia...

Was waiting for this country's vlogs during your ride , I been in almaty and Astana, a beautiful eurasian country

Nice video! Reminds me of my trip through Central Asia by car, just a year ago. Had to laugh a little when you passed the Stop sign without stopping. Cool to see that you‘re staying in European Backpacker Hostel in Almaty, I stayed there as well when I was in Kazakhstan, very nice people there.

Well I loved the background music the moment you entered Kazakhstan. Well done, Noraly :) Enjoy :)

Noraly, happy to see your videos always. Lots of love from India 😍🤝🇮🇳

TQ Noraly....glad you arrived safely. Do enjoy your stay there.

Hey Noraly, great video as ever....and the weather continues to be kind to you!. I'm sure Basanti will enjoy a bit of TLC. Cheers, Steve

What an awesome "little" channel you have here, best luck for all of your trips.

That was a bunch of unspeakably unusual Russian bikers. They might be of a stuck up sort. Normally we are like a worldly community. Easy and ready to help out a fellow biker. Or to chat at least. Sorry for that.

You are a freedom inspiration. Your smilie is adorable

What a unique adventure Noraly. :) Keep inspiring us. Salut to you.

Kazakhstan is beautiful and Alma-Atay is a lovely place, kept me at the border for 2 hrs, enjoy it Noraly, stay safe and shiny side up 👍🏻

the fact that you already been there in kazakhstan for a year finally gave me some clue how you speaks or atleast understand russian language.😂😂😂 i always wondering how you speaks russian so well and now i can finally sleep well 😂😂😂 stay safe nora ^_^

THANK YOU for BUBBLING OVER with LIFE and JOY!

Wonderful and educational videos. Thanks for sharing them to all of us. Best to you and Godspeed!

Noraly we absolutely love watching your videos and we too give you a big 👍🏻 before we watch the show as we know ta going to be “super”. The scenery is beyond our expectations and the people are what the world is all about. Peace love and respect to everyone ❤️ in honour of you we have started to say “let’s go” whenever we go out.....haha!

I'm from INDIA .This bike is one of best bike. And my favourite brand is royal Enfield.♥️♥️♥️

Здравствуй мой родной Казахстан и сразу слёзы, как же я хочу домой...

Так классно, Русский даже понимает автор. Отличное путешествие, привет из России

Hi!! Noraly, Leuk, dat ging heel vlot! Ik hope dat jij so snel mogelijk naar de garage kan gaan!! 22,000 kms! Wow👍👍 Tot jouw volgende video. Groetjes, Anjali

Nice video. Nice scenery. Awesome adventure. Thanks for sharing

Really amazing ,I am from Pakistan my Name is Syed Ali Raza shah and i really enjoy your travelling video hope you will also come to Pakistan

1:36 You did not stop at the STOP sign. In this country, this is a violation of traffic rules)))

Brilliant, great riding, always smiling, always cheers me up, your living the dream, (those giving a thumbs down, your lacking somewhere!!!) One of Best adventure riders I've seen, videos always excellent, keep going Noraly, ride safe and keep safe.

Veel geluk en een goede verdere reis. Ik kijk uit naar de volgende video. Greetings from germany.

Your ride is amazing. I love your accent....

How can you give a dislike after 3 minutes if the video is 16 minutes long 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Hello Noraly, your trip is amazing, please don't stop film your journey!

Vorige week kwam ik je 1e video tegen op youtube. Meteen geabonneerd en al video's bekeken. Mooie reisvideo's en een vrolijk humeur van de maakster. Ga zo door ! Groeten uit Eindhoven
