- In this episode I am visiting the Himba head man of the Himba villages in the area. What a fascinating culture! But even though there are many differences, I still connected with the women of this tribe and we laughed a lot! :)

THANK YOU SO MUCH . GOD KEEP NORALY SAFE WHEREVER SHE GOES.
Yes well said!

That young lady's happiness is very infectious..this prove that happiness is not what you've acquired or have but who you are and surrounded by..happiness is when one is contented with what he or she has
I would also be happy if I had the time to travel and don‘t have to work...
Personally, I think there happier.. India, South america etc dirt ass poor all of em an always smiling it seems. Love love this!
Product of your environment 😉
@@schmetterfantblumi9998 then do it.
Noraly is showing the world how humanity is a beautiful , good people when we are experiencing goodness and loving intentions to one another 🌅🙏🏼💜
It's so weird meeting such friendly people like the guy in the shop at the beginning that you will probably never see again.
It really is! But some of the nicest people I've ever met, are people I meet on travels, and never see again.
The lady in the shop was a little bit rude though. She actually told a customer to come n get it yourself and she didnt even try to make conversation.
@@bossmalo947 : I think she’s basically saying feel free to take anything u want. Bht h don’t know. She does not look nice tho.
@@bossmalo947 She certainly was not rude, she was showing her trust by allowing her into a secure area to help herself. A change of perspective is required here.
@@legend9335 i understand ur point. Hence they say body language can be interpreted differently. So i will not say u are wrong...
Noraly , this video is incredible. I didn’t think that you could top the last one , episode 58 , but you just did. What a generous and thoughtful idea to take gifts of food to the Namibia tribal ladies. They would have been so blessed by that. You are so lucky to rub shoulders with them. To help them see that other human beings can be nice to each other. A mind blowing video . I love Namibia. What ambassador you are.❤
A quiet gentle person opens many doors. Loving your journey through Africa Noraly .
Amen
All the best Noraly, you are doing such a great job in portraying our beautiful Namibia and its people while you are travelling through our country. You and Savanna must stay safe on your journey. Namibia and its people will stay in your heart forever. Blessings 🙌
you was the man in the shop? ;-)
Thank you for being such a quality human being. Your interactions with the tribal members was respectful and positive. Thanks for taking us along on your adventures. Continued safe travels.
I lived in Africa for several years as a child and it is part of me. Thank you for sharing, it is close to my heart.
I’m South African living in Russia. And its pretty bizarre what most of these people think of Africans. I sometimes hear things along the lines of cannibalism. I always laugh at them. And here is Noraly riding blindly into the heart of Namibia… Shows that the media and some people are just blind/ignorant.
We appreciate you Noraly ❤️
How is everything as a south African in Russia during these strange times? Hope all is well
That's exactly how the Russians that live in the UK think. They even believe the Ukrainians started the war against Russia, and all the media across the entire world is lying.
Don't laugh at them Again African people are Cannibalism U are also.. what are you doing in Russia go back to Africa
the media is ignorant any how most of them lie lie and tell more lies
I have lived in South africa for 30 years and that's hilarious to hear. Our area isnt even that dangerous compared to others if i might say so myself.
There she is!! Off to the Himba village. Interesting the food store, looks like a jail. Great meeting the young man who spoke Portuguese. Always good to bring gifts, the appreciation of an old culture. Interesting the village how they protect themselves and their animals with the wooden fence. Always get a kick out of the children their curiosity and playfulness .. enjoy how you throw yourself into trying out a village tradition ... and how the ladies enjoyed it. Fascinated how the young lady groomed her hair. But the character that stole the show was the porcupine. What a active little character. Thank you for sharing the local interesting culture that we in Europe have no idea about. Ride careful, stay safe...
food is like gold and that is why they are put in jail.
That little store had very good security, for the area.
@@jonam7589 not really, they have cattle🤷.
The tak kraals brings back a lot of memories I see nothing has changed in 40 years since I have been there during my army days,we also gave some of our rations to the local population.
@Phil Lister Yes they loved when the Army guys came to the villages.
Sodaliet?
True bru
The young girl is happier than most in the west who have everything and with a great personality to go with it
It is counterintuitive to the western mind. How could you be happy with so little? It seems to me people who live simple lives close to the land have an aura of peace we can't relate to.
You simply can;t say that, you are making it up. I'm not saying that you are necessarily wrong or that I don't also think we have things quite wrong in the west, but you can't logically just take this one cheerful moment and extrapolate. Also, there is some aspect of not knowing what one is missing.
@@svenp6504 absolutely. ive seen so many comments of people saying they need to be more grateful for what they have after seeing people like this... this is totally backwards thinking. these people should be grateful for what they have... we should be sad for what we lost.
There's millions of people in working poverty in the so called west who "dont have everything" and are making choices like "shall I eat or shall I turn the heating on" thousands homeless and begging while advertising teases them with the lives they'll never have causing incredible stress...something a simpler african life avoids and they have a lot of agency over their lives...poor people in the west have virtually none...
the people in the West don't have everything. These people have a lot of things the West dont have like extensive quality time together, connection to one another and nature, peace, freedom from toxic media, freedom competitive pressures, freedom from job and educational stress.
Hats off. You a kind hearted lady.😍
Wow! Thank you for bringing us along.
Interesting episode as always, Noraly. Visit to the Himba village was fascinating to watch. And always plenty of African wildlife to learn about!
Thanks for taking us viewers along with you.
Ok. Thank you so much
I like that the Himba are able to carry on their traditional life and culture in a modern world. Everyone likes Noraly, even the porcupine.
Fascinating! All this technology in the world today, and these people live a hard, but simple life. I'd bet it would be safe to say that they are truly happier than most! So generous of you to get them some supplies. Big hugs...
Itchy Boots says she speaks Brazilian! But Brazilian it's not a language in Brazil they speak Portuguese.😂 But putting jokes to the side Itchy Boots is an Amazing adventure woman.
What a generous person you are Noraly. God bless!
Each episode is like a well made short documentary. 20 + minutes of pure joy !
Noraly; you are National Geographic on two wheels!
You putting the red powder on your face and arms...instant kinship!
Thank you for giving us a small glimpse into their culture. They are so sweet.
Yes, That porcupine is the cutest thing ever!
It is absolutely wonderful the way you interact with the local people. The world could use a lot more ambassadors like you. Ride safe and keep sharing.
The red powder was also used by the Indians in Canada. It was called red ocher and it worked as a protective against the sun and biting insects.
NORALY IS AMAZING EACH VIDEO NICE TO SEE YOUR TRIPS AND LEARNING MORE ABOUT DIFFERENT COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS WHEREVER YOU GO GREETINGS FROM MEX🇲🇽✌🏻
Hey Noraly, because of you, I'm taking my first long moto trip from Naples Italy to Istanbul this weekend. Thank you for being such an inspiration!
Enjoy the ride!! 🙌
Have a great ride!
Stay safe
Was also my trigger to restart motorcycling after a pauze of 5 years… that enthousiasme is fantastic 🤙
Enjoy the ride and have a safe ride. 👏👏👏 from 🇹🇷
'Easy life...no man' 😂 strong, brave and an independent lady. Respect for Miss Noraly ❣️
You are such a kind person keep being you the world needs more people like you
First time viewer from Australia...
I'm staggered at how you manage the logistics of your escapades in your life.
Well done! & Thx.
Il y a des femmes qui me font pleurer d'admiration. Vous en faites parfaitement partie.
Noraly,I'm proud of you for your unselfish act of bringing food to that tribe, very thoughtful, another peak at your good spirit and a tribute to your loving upbringing by your parents. Good job.
I 10kg is not food come on
@@unclebob646More of a thoughtful (and useful) gift.
Wonderful act of kindness - we need more of that today! Unfortunately droughts and lack of food and water are a growing crisis we must confront.
I automatically love you. Motorcycle adventure, buying some food for local tribes, oozing with humanism. I'm 2 minutes into the first video and I already love you.
Agreed , she's amazing !!
me too
that wasn't enough food.
@@thisbitchshonest7171 enough for what? She isn’t there to feed them… they are more than capable of feeding and providing for themselves! She was just being nice to bring them something as a guest present.
Not everyone in Africa is starving poor and even if their life might seem incredibly unfamiliar and poor to you doesn’t mean they are starving and in need of a foreigner with a saviour complex to save them!
@@thisbitchshonest7171 and how much have you gave them? :)
I have had bikes 32 years.. but I am in awe of what you are doing here, just amazing. A feature special with yourself and Kinga would be brilliant, if it could ever be organised. Safe travels. 🙏🏽
Wish you well on your travels. 👍🙏
"Everywhere are nice people. If I have a problem, people help me" This is what the worls needs to know! Unfortunately everyone has developed distorted images of what the world is. The Himba people are incredible. For many of us their life is unimaginable, but they are happier than all of us together. Thank you for sharing Noraly!
@@jhoxihum3230 those were not the Himba people. I don’t think they mix that much with the rest of the world. But agree that was a stressful moment seeing Noraly walk into such a place.
@@jhoxihum3230 Yeah I must say that female cashier was rude and not friendly. The gentleman hanging around were very friendly and helpful.
The further you travel the more helpful people are.
You should live with them. You will be happier
Ah, yes. The myth of the noble savage is alive and well. There are no misdeeds or injustice in their world. It is an absolute utopia, only introduced to evil by none other than European man, of course! How naive.
Thanks again for a throughly engaging and delightful episode. Great mix of motorcycles and local culture. Such a real treat!
I must admit I have wondered how you travel like you do without fear. You inspire me that is for sure.
Why shd you be scared?
It's beautiful to see that even in a place you wouldn't imagine people to share a similar mannerism and ideaology, they still laughed at the jokes you told and were very friendly even though they didn't know you.
You need to travel dude.
Nice to hear some português! 🥳 Awesome videos Noraly!
You are now riding in the Mopane veld, which seems to you dry, but actually, the goats and the wild gazelles like Kudu and Impala live comfortably off the mopane leaves and pods. The pods have oil in them, and cattle pick the dry pods up from the ground. Digesting pods makes them quite fat!
The scenery there reminds me so much of where we used to farm in South Africa's Limpopo Valley. The mopane trees stretch across the African continent from Mozambique, through South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Botswana, Namibia, and Angola.
Thanks Francois, enjoying your extra info on Namibia
Extreme drought is not good
I still do not understand why people are disliking the videos of Noraly since i do not see anything offensive, maybe it is competition of her our just sour grapes, i have visited all the places she are visiting i mean and i still love it.. if you don`t like it don`t watch it..she is doing one hell of her job even better then some tour guides i would say ..you are marketing Namibia wonderfully and professionally
Some people just love to hate...
There are ppl who run programs on computers that do nothing but troll RUclips videos and dislike them...Bots as some people call them.
@@marek0101 I guess we all have the right to our own opinions Marek, no offence taken but some given it seems...
@@patrickblue3813 Yes, some sad people love to hate - *especially* when the youtuber is very well liked.
The haters are nothing but sour grapes
Hey Noraly, I've been watching your travels since the beginning, way back in season 1 which was absolutely EPIC! and is something I will watch from start to finish all over again. I hope Basanti is being looked after, along with Ronin - how I miss those two!!
Love your latest adventures too.
Stay safe!!
-Will
(Australia)
You Dutch folks have such a unique accent. I can tell from a mile away. You’re a brave young lady taking on this kind of adventure.
This is so cool! ❤
Like the Himba woman I was also surprised and amazed by you traveling alone and living your best life lol
This is awesome
I'm enjoying all Itchy Boots adventures! It's just like being there with you. Stay safe, keep well and happy trails!
Noraly's vlogging style has forever changed the way I will document my adventures. She has a real skill of putting you on the ground with her! Thank you!
I 100% agree. I'm getting to old to ride a bike, but I feel like I'm there every time.
Every time she says "I hope you enjoyed this video", I think for my self, "If only you knew how hard it is for us to wait for the next one".
Yes we enjoy your videos -ALWAYS.🙂
Hope you are still doing well in Namibia. It is changing in South Africa😔
You are fantastic!
Unbelievable what you have done for tourism in Southern Africa.
So many of us follow you daily.
Love it when people speak Afrikaans to you! Beautiful language of the South.
Dankie baie.
Ja nee
The world needs so many more people like you , interaction with the locals & tribes and a glimpse into their culture is so fascinating to watch.
Well spoken. Thank you.
Most get themselves killed. Her instincts are clearly razor sharp. Trust the wrong people like those weirdos in the shop and you can easily go missing.
@@thegreenknight1970 they helped her load her bags and wished her a safe journey?
Ralf, I really enjoyed the ladies from the tribe getting an insight into Noraly's culture also. They will never forget that moment.
@@thegreenknight1970 agree
This southern Africa series has been my favorite overall. I just absolutely love the landscape of the whole southern continent.
There is a movie from 1980 called, 'The gods must be crazy' about how a coke bottle completely disrupts the life of a peaceful tribe like this.
I bought my Himalayan 3 months ago because of Noraly and after a 17 years hiatus from riding I am finally back on the saddle and so far in 3 months I logged 3000 miles. Thank you for the inspiration.
This girl is living a life most of us just dream of and then never ever able to do so. Amazing and epic journey, more power to you.!!
May you have more and more safe journeys...
@@blokin5039 Also money is a major obstacle for most people
I actually have cash and willing and free time but I've lack of communication skills.... kinda introvert just seeking for someone popular to start my journey with someone who can talk to the camera nicely just like Noraly ... I'm biker driver and paraglider pilot
I surely don't dream going to Africa, but if that's your dream then you're lucky, it's actually not so expensive.
@@Infornografista It's not about a particular place. Its about leaving the worries of mainstream life behind and living every day as brand new day, exploring the unknown, meeting strangers. Just think of memories she is accumulating!!
Going to the headman is the right way. It also retains his respect in the Village specially in this time of drought. Proud of you.
Amazing stuff Noraly, you are fantastic how you interact with everyone, those tribal people have a tough life but they look so happy too, maybe because they aren't watching tv news everyday and are not bombarded with bad news and fear of things that don't concern them.
Turn off tv
When you are used to western comforts, their life looks difficult because it would be to you. To them, it's the only life that they know, so it's normal and comfortable to them. When you're used to a certain way from childhood, it's generally comfortable. Relativity is the word. The narrative that kids in Africa have it rough is often garbage. We have very fond memories of our childhoods, which westerners think was torment.
They don’t have a tough life. That’s their life and that’s how they live.
its a normal life for them, a tough life would be how the puritans lived
or being a medieval serf
They own more land than most of us here, who spend our days inside, staring at screens, developing bad shoulders and backs while doing meaningless labour for uncaring companies...
We appreciate you Noraly ❤️
There is joy in the Himba people.
Noraly you are an angel. For giving food to those in need. Bless you..
I totally agree
It is common culture in Africa. The tribes charge for taking photo, video etc. All visitors give money and/or food.
@@boymeetsbush8232 great info
Noraly's laugh is food for the soul.
Noraly: "Easy life...no man." My wife about fell off the couch laughing.
But Bob Marley said 'No Woman, No Cry' first! 😁🤣
No wife " nice life", No man, more freedom
you are very mean please dont laught at people
The guy said "You Bought It?" Lol
Yet most of he help when she is in a strait, is a man.😏
Great but extremely risky by yourself..not a good idea..I have friends who went entire length of S. A.. always in group. Your pushing it big time.
This tribe needs to run fast from the Europeans.
Noraly, you epitomise what is right in the world. There are nice people everywhere, all it takes is to nice yourself. I have had hospitality in many places and I’ve found that the people who have the least are the most willing to share. You did a good thing today, as every day. Thanks again for sharing this. kind regards, K33F
There is a verse in the New Testament that tells us "angels are among us".... The people of Himba clearly met one on this day. We need to get Itchy Boots to about 6 billion subscribers, just to make the world a better place in Noraly's demonstration of peace, hope and charity.
I much prefer to read 'Noddy Goes To Town', just as inspiring and equally fictitious !
I think she will be ok with just a full tank of petrol
Hm, hard to say if they met an Angel or she met multiple, isn't it?
I totally agree with these wise words. 🙏
There is much, much more about this 3rd Dimension we call earth then can be grasped, understood or accepted.
Petting a porcupine!??! Haha that’s awesome
Your a awesome beautiful lady. Feeding the tribes, what goes around comes around. Loving life and humanity. Love your travels, it's not easy to share but it is appreciated by many. Thank You Greg
I love the ending part...such an adorable porcupine
@@gds5406 JakeTheGardenSnake is not a lady lol
@@gds5406 I think the tribes have been "feeding themselves" just fine long before 🐷 visited any of them
@@gds5406 I think the foodstuffs were mostly meant as (useful) gifts.
You are to be commended for what you do! You help, you educate, you explore, and you engage. Most of all you teach people not to be ignorant. God bless you. You should be rewarded.❤
Tribal woman:" Don't you want a man? " Noraly:"No man, easy life." Tribal woman :"😂😂😂😂👍🏻" .....she knows....
The young woman showing you how to rub the rocks was your doppelganger in terms of smiles and laughter.
i love her😍 she is very kind.
I think everyone is fascinated by the fact that you like to travel alone. It's a pretty big deal.
These people that don't have much seem happier than many of us who have lots.
yuor smile make me smiling,super woman
THE GIRL DOING THE ORANGE ROCK STUFF, HAS AMAZING HAIR WOW ITS SO LONG AND THAT STYLE IS JUST SO DIFFERENT BUT FITS HER WELL.. I JUST NOTICED SHE MUST COLOR HER HAIR WITH THAT ORANGE POWDER, VERY CREATIVE
Between a "pillow" and a "porcupine" Noraly did outstandingly fine with the new friends she finds.
Why did she not take off her clothes, & look like them? I ponder!
@@alanmartin6708 Don´t be a respectles smartass
@@alanmartin6708 whats wrong with you?...
I only asked. Because she was there to study their culture and way of living.
Looks like I'm back to college days don't want to miss the geology class from miss nora 😂😂 like the way she explains about the place wherever she goes. Drive safe live ur life live ur dreams 👍👍👍
Every second a treat! That was such a good trip today. Plus a Porcupine kiss on Camera , lol .
I confess I came back to see the Porcupine again. Didn´t know how big they are ! :-D
Savanna " Noraly, you have overloaded me. It is ok, i am fine".
😂
Ne güzel Dünyayı geziyorsunuz ve bizi de sanal Dünyada gezdiriyorsunuz.Bu iyiliğiniz için çok teşekkürler.Keşke ben de sizinle birlikte gezebilseydim,size eşlik edebilsrydim.İyi yolculuklar dilerim.Tanrım sizi korusun.
Very nice of your to help the poor people out. We are very lucky in our western civilizations.
Porcupine in Afrikaans is 'Ystervark', translated back to english it is an 'Iron pig'😂
In Dutch it is Stekelvarken. Stekel is Thorn/Spine, Varken is Pig.
In German (my wife is German) it's Stachelschwein .....'thorn pig'
In Danish it’s “Pindsvin” which roughly translates to “pind = stick” and “svin = pig” - stickpig.
@@kasperkjrsgaard1447 For a Wild Boar we say Wild Zwijn(Svin).

So does we 😁🇩🇰
You bring your kindness to wherever you go. It's all shows your inspiring personality. I admire you!
I love her videos but I always feel scared for her. I hope nothing bad happens to her, there are a lot of bad things in this world, I have seen them. But she is proof that one can still find kindness on the road, after all these years of travel.
I hope she gets through all her solo travels with no major incidents.
I prayed nothing happen also but also think positive.
Himbas are good people and they they treat everyone the same.
Amen to that. I worry sometimes too. I really believe that most people are basically good, or doing the best they can, anyway. But it only takes one really bad one. But if we try to live in perfect safety we wind up not really living a full life at all. I suppose Noraly is about half my age, but she has seen and done so many things compared to me! It takes all kinds of people to make a world, I hope she goes on expecting the best from people and that people continue to show her their best.
Same! I was so worried for her in the store if the men actually had good intentions or not as the lady working there was behind bars! It was great to see them helping her on her way.
@@makamedia4519 Oh yes! They're awesome people, I wish I could visit some day!
American stores need bars and chicken wire like this one. The problem of shoplifting is out of control with no end in sight.
First question most people ask her is: ARE U ALONE? ARE U NOT AFRAID?? your channel is very unique and am always tempted to go for long tour as well... good job u brave one
"Every little bit helps" - you are absolutely correct. Thank you Noraly.
You may have been only able to carry 10kg of food for then but you brought your 100kg heart with you full of compassion and interest. 👍
Great episode, love the interaction with the locals.
the shop girl was very rude!
As people we forget we have more in common than we do differences. Also I want to pet the spiky dog
Often I think, "Well, Noraly can't make a video better than that!"
And then you do. Today's was magical - being able to make thousands of people smile at your adventures must be a great reward in itself.
Thank you, yet again. About to watch this one again, straight away.
These are exactly my thoughts as well, thanks, Jim :)
Its a crazy world where we celebrate billionaires going into space for under an hour costing millions and yet we have people here on earth that are so thankful for some extra food. Food shouldn't be behind bars it should be the billionaires who pay next to no tax and only worry about stocks and shares and where they are on the rich list. You are more valuable to society by helping others than billionaires who just help themselves !
Yea, I’m employed by some very wealthy people. They have about 10000 employees. They had the unmitigated audacity to pay all the employees for a year while almost everything they own was shut down.
And there you are typing away on some device that was certainly accelerated the need of space travel by man wanting to continue the discovery that we have been doing since the species started. I guess there have always been people to complain about how some get to sail across the next large ocean, and then those that educate themselves enough to do it. The cool thing is, we can do both. Feed the poor, and go to space. I just happen to have donated 2k to a child’s hospital today. I will continue to celebrate billionaires going to space. Billionaires that feed millions of families through their companies and donations. Also I will continue to help my lovely bride make her meals that she makes for the needy and working for my very kind boss who really is very kind. The world is not just black and white.
@@bearlemley well done you ! Nope I stand by every word.
Laughter is indeed a universal language 🤩
Great show and great photography.Melb. Australia
Es usted una persona maravillosa y excepcional.
What an awesome video, leaving a positive impression where ever you go. Love that no matter where you are from or how much you have, the “your traveling alone?” Questions always seems to be the main one. I also have no idea how you managed to get your predominately white gear out of there without it being covered in that red stuff 😂
You are riding like the locals African riders, carrying any thing to the market for sale.... Very impressive!... 💪👍
Noraly you have the most awesome blue eyes. True Saphire colour.
13:30 even the Himba woman ask if she aren`t afraid!! You are such a brave Woman!
Noraly totally at home with the people......fantastic
Brazilian here. Happy to hear portuguse is among the so many languages you master. I actually have visited Amsterdam once and although I dont speak dutch, sometimes found dutch kinda intelligible to an english speaker ( even though english is a second language to me ). It was so enjoyable listening to the overhead speakers giving out instructions in the subway cars.
Can u imagine how many black was in her at this time?)
Wonderful video. I never know what to expect: a geology lesson, magnificent landscapes, interesting local interactions, tricky motorcycling, wildlife, sometimes all of them and more!
Hello Noraly,
what a great heart you have, to help the people with what you can afford. I am deeply impressed. Stay save and healthy and as always keep the rubber to the road, greetings from Germany.
Schön gesacht. Dem schließe ich mich an 👍. Grüße aus Oldenburg
Humbling and heartwarming video and insightful too into traditional ways. Though the Namibian scenery is beautiful these encounters are food for the soul.
Amazing how different the world is and it is so wonderful to have someone as you to show it to us. Maybe we are the isolated ones living in a so called civilized society.
Damn, you speak brazilian?! That's amazing! Conta pra gente como você aprendeu e porque :D
Brazilian isn’t a language just as American isn’t a language.
She speaks Brazilian portugese.
