Bad Insect Bite! - EP. 273
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2024
- This was probably one of the worst days on my around-the-world trip. After an insect bite, I developed a bad allergic reaction and couldn't open my eye. But I needed to get out of the woods and I tell ya - riding with one eye open ain't easy!

In April 2017 I left Australia for a solo trip around the world on a BMW F800GS. I named it “Are We There Yet” because I don't know my final destination or the duration of this journey.
Throughout my journey, I'm raising money for a young disabled child in Poland named Franek. Franek was diagnosed with cerebral palsy (weakness of the entire right side of the body) and he will require constant rehabilitation for the rest of his life. All the money raised will go directly to helping Franek and his family lead as normal a life as possible so please donate generously: gogetfunding.c...

Keep your spirits up Kinga - You're doing great XX
its the new thing- motorcycle ride without underwear. You have started the latest greatest. glad the eye is better - take a break will ya?
So glad your eye got better , hopefully you'll get the rest you need soon ..take care and the time to look after yourself
Lol, sorry for laughing. That's one hell of a bug bite. All will be well. Ride on 🏍️
i was like ruclips.net/video/CD-E-LDc384/видео.html
Oh Kinga, you poor dear.
Been there, absolutely a real problem. Bless your heart ❤️. Hope it clears up soon.
So sorry to see you in this state, Kinga.
The highs and lows of motorcycle ADV riding are just that - some real highs and then sometimes, a series of real lows!
I was riding up the Dempster Highway in 2017 and had my visor up for better visibility (no goggles) and a passing truck flung gravel into my left eye, causing a scratched cornea.
I had to ride all the way from just north of Fort McPherson to Inuvik with just one eye functioning on that slippery gravel - no faster than 70 km/h!
Arrived in Inuvik and checked into the hospital where they flushed my eye, inspected it, and gave me some drops to apply.
Like you, I had to spend a couple of days resting (in my case in my tent), but eventually it got better.
I'm with you on the fact that riding also can begin to exhaust you, and sometimes a break of a couple of days off the road does wonders!
Best wishes and I hope you are doing well and having fun in Kiwi land.
Cheers
There is no shame in letting go of plans and Schedules. Find a good place to stay, get well, get rested, get perspective. A motorcycle hauler, or fan with a trailer can jump you across the country easily in only a few days. You can re-plan something nice for your remaining time - with NO Pressure. In flying planes, Get There-Itis precedes deadly accidents very often. Your inner voice is telling you this is Dangerous, Not Fun. One of us will help you, if you ask. Whatever the plan was.. Ditch It...
Hey girl your hair will always look fine!
I took a bad bug bite to my neck/chin a few months back. Hate to think what would have happened if it was near my eye. Had about a 2 square inch opening between by jacket and helmet. Bug had good aim. Hurt like heck for a few days. You are back to looking good. Enjoy your USA tour.
antibiotics ugh what bad aspects take good care of yourself, greetings from New Zealand
That looks like really Freedom! 😅 but with 1 eye open is possible to drive haha
I'm so sorry your Montana experience was not remarkable and Beautiful. As you know from your Canadian Rocky mountain travel days, the whole of the Rocky mountain chain must be enjoyed regardless of weather. Personally I wish you could get to the cultural activities like Pow Wow on or near any of the reservations. Montana's summer rodeo season also brings good times.
Thank You for taking God's advice to slow down and take care of yourself. We tend to want to push through pain and some times it's just God's way of making us take care of ourselves and I for one am very happy you are well and recovered without further problems.
Much Love and Respect for you Miss Kinga, You are in my prayers
Hoka Hey
You're a beautiful girl, everything's going to be fine.It's just a little nuisance. Good health to you, you smart girl
Bug bite aside, Kinga has a remarkable resemblance to Barbara Billingsley (June Cleaver). Ask your parents, kids.
You are a tough lady. Get well from all of us in cold northern Norway.
Hello Kinga. I feel fore you. If its not bugs its rain. I understand that ite hard to keep up thhe motivation. But you know that we are all following and thinking of You. Breth and bite hard. Ride on. And thanks fore the video.
I've been seeing the tiredness in your eyes for some episodes. I am glad that you shared your feelings with us, so that we can send you even more love and good thoughts. Thank you for everything you do, love from Brazil
Saludos desde Venezuela,
creo que su decaimineto se debe a falta de Complejo B (vitamnias)
eso la va a reanimar.
Saludos, me encanta sus videos.
Chaooo
Kinga, although you are as beautiful as usual, you do sound tired. I hope you get a nice long rest soon. But I really like the pretty eyeshadow on your left eye 😊.
Do us all a favour.
Take more time to relax on your travels.
What's the point if you're not enjoying yourself.
OMG!!! I would have gone straight to the ER. Glad you got over it so quickly. I watch you channel alll the time but usually on the TV. After seeing your swollen eye lid I thought I'd get on the computer and post. Keep the videos coming, hope to see you on the east coast of the U.S. some day!
Sorry to see you in such a bad way. Know you will pull through and enjoy the rides ahead. 😊😊😊
My brother lost vision in his right eye, due to an accident, he rode like that for 15 years.
Thinking about you Kinga! Huge respect and a big hug for you!
Glad you got over that scary problem Kinga... stay safe, keep smiling!
Long distance traveling can be incredibly rewarding, but can also be quite draining. Watching videos of day long travels condensed to a half hour or less makes it look like all fun and games but doesn't capture the fatigue and stress that comes with it. I admire your zeal for what you do and have tremendous respect for how you do it! I know your break is your current goal, but that too, will be replaced by the next adventure! Safe travels!
Hang in there Kinga, you’re stronger than most and yes Benadryl is a life saver for sure. I keep a box in my tank bag. Caught a bee in the helmet, no fun! Ride on and be safe!
That’s a terrible bug bite! Take care of yourself and ride safe! Oh, by the way, your hair looks great
What a recovery! Glad it healed up so fast, Kinga!
Oh, Kinga, that looked so bad. I'm sorry you had to go through it, but it's good it didn't take too long to get back to normal.
I hope you are feeling much better these days as I could hear the exhaustion in your voice.
Safe travels and see you in the next one. ❤
Kinga jesteś niesamowita. Masz kapitalny materiał do oglądania i posłuchania. Jesteś mega odważna. Trzymam za Ciebie mocno kciuki, dużo zdrówka i miłości ❤.
Dear Kinga, I can understand that you are tired after chasing around the world for six years. I ask myself why does she do it. Why deprive yourself of a normal family life for many years just to produce U-tube footage? Perhaps it pays extremely well. I don't know. I myself travelled extensively by motorcycle but only for specific trips and excursions, after which it was back to normal. I advise you to go home and take a rest because lately your videos have not been inspiring nor enjoyable.
We all have different aims in life and different things make us happy. Being on the road gives me unconditional freedom which I truly enjoy. Surely you have bad days in your 'normal family life' and so do I on the road. I'm showing you how it is - the good days and the bad days. If you don't enjoy it just watch something else.
You are an absolute legend. Indomitable spirit of people like yours, keep my life going.Big salute!⚘️🙏
whoua impressionnant !! soit prudente !! repose toi ride safe ✌
That montage of you being restless with an ice pack on your eye; it made me really feel for you.
I hope you took the day off and got out the laptop to do some work. No use riding in great scenery if its raining.
Scary looking eye. Overjoyed you recovered so well. Similar things have happened in my travels.
blessings to you . take care of yourself. get the rest you need, so you can enjoy the ride. Peace from Connecticut, USA.
Take care. Known how you feel being on the road is exhausting, just taken a 2 week break after 10 weeks back to back camping through Mexico to get ready for Belize... also lost my mum during this time, so know it can be a pretty lonely place on the road some days. All you need is a hug! @montysmotoadventures
Kinga iyi olmana çok sevindim. Evet hayat bazen bizi zorluklarla karşılaştırır ve biz onun karşısında nefes aldığımız sürece mücadele etmek zorundayız. Seni ve maceralarını çok seviyorum. BÜtün güzel dilekleri seninle. Kendine çok iyi bak. Geçmiş olsun.
Freedom! Dammmmmnnnnn...... Montana bugs know how to bite, huh? Glad you got better quickly.
We were there at Lolo Hot Springs Last year in July while doing Idaho BDR, Holly crap what did you get bitten by maybe later in video I'll find out
OmGosh Kinga! That was one nasty bug bite, obviously one you were sensitive to. As a Veteran Pharmacy Tech of 24yrs, I replied to you on the TV "oh no dear, do not apply that cream anywhere near your eye".... Oy, If you could only HEAR (of course it would be very late). Haha but STILL.
I'm so sorry that happened, I'm also a Rider and having your peripheral vision compromised ( when not used to it) is DEF a struggle! Thank God you were close to a Town with a Pharmacy AND Hotel for you to stay in. I think also it was a "sign" for you to just stay put and wait for the rain to stop. I hope you did.
LOVE your comment at the end! Benadryl truly IS the most effective AND least sensitivities to, Antihistamine!! Please, always keep that type with you! The generic is fine too (Diphenhydramine) . I'm ready to see your next video now.
Excited for your New Zealand one's as well. I hope you're staying healthy and refreshed!! ❤🌷🙌✝️✨
See a doctor now!!!!!!
O know that had to be ruff. I was riding down to Panama City, Florida when I was 13 on my 305 Honda dream and a wasp hit me in my bicep of my left arm, and the stinger was still in my arm, and it was pulsating and got it off and did that hurt on a bike it happens !☮️❤️
Estás guapísima!! 😂😂
Better to have one eye than no eye at all ;-) You sound as if you really need a good rest. And get into travel mood again. Happy days, Günter/Nürnberg
Tu es une guerrière, je suis avec toi 😉 de 🇨🇵
I'm so glad Benadryl did the trick for you! 😁 I've fought the single eye no depth perception demon for a long (decades) time. I finally got laser and new lenses for both eyes and it's like the world opened up and said "Hi!" You are just remarkable! All the best to you and your upcoming rest! 🥰
In the future, have some over the counter Benadryl and I will get the swelling down fairly quick, laying down at night made it worse. Happy trails.
I was thinking why u r not using high quality camera before now u have upgraded and i would like to say video quality is much better and i love to watch your videos now
PIękna - Twarda jesteś niesamowicie, Brawo podziwiamy i trzymamy kciuki i jak zawsze Lewa W Górę.
It is the dumbest thing that can bring you down. I remember the first good advice for camping: keep yourself healthy.
Sorry, i don't understand.... where are you this episode Kinga ? The last episode i watched you were in New Zealand ??
Days Inn should be ashamed of themselves
Charging extra for early check-in.
what a eye...you should see the other guy.....LOL...what a place to be bit....any place but the eye....oh well you needed a rest.
இடது கன்னி பிஞ்சு போய் இருக்கு நீங்க பேசறது ஆங்கிலம் எனக்கு தெரியாது ஆனால் உங்களுடைய இதுல வந்து கொஞ்சம் புரிஞ்சு விடுவேன் அவ்வளவுதான் தாங்கள் வந்து உடம்பையும் நல்லபடியாக ஆரோக்கியமாக பார்த்துக் கொள்ள வேண்டும் நன்ற
That sucks. Goes to show, if you don’t have your health, it’s hard to enjoy life. Happy to learn you improved quickly.
That was a nasty bug bite on your eyelid. I thought you would have to lance and drain it. Benadryl was a good alternative. 😁... Excellent Cool 😎
OMG! Incredibly you continued to shoot the video. Sounds like you need a break.
Paskudnie spuchnięte 😮 całe szczęście że bez większych komplikacji obrzęk zszedł. Powodzenia 😊
Goodness that looks awful! Did you ever find out what bit you? I had a bee get in my helmet and stung me on my temple. No bueno, so I know the pain. Best!
I had the same reaction to a honey bee sting on my upper lip. Man I got made fun of. Buck up little camper, it comes and it goes. Much respect from Michigan.
Yes!!! riding with one eye is challenging. With a little time you adjust!!!!!!!!!!! But that was some bad luck. Wise choice to stop, rest and take a break BEFORE you burn out!!!! Where you are is a beautiful place. I love Montana in the warmer months. I feel for you for what happened, but excellent video. The down to earth and honest videos are the best. God Bless safe ridin rubber down
Thank you 🙌
Really sorry to see this happening, terrible experience, but as always you're ready for it
“One year without a proper break.” I spend some time touring the U.S. on my BMW also, but I’ve found I’m only good for about 3 weeks on the road, maybe four if I push it, before I need to sleep in my own bed and give my kids and grandkids an actual hug. But then, I am almost 70. We were in Lolo about the same time. Sorry I missed you! Ride safe.
Bung Eye Kinga. You need to back here in AU for less dangerous bugs. Not a flattering look but it did make you get some rest.
Nie poddawaj sie Kinga jutro zaświeci słońce i zobaczysz świat w innych barwach. Jesteś silna,jedyna,piękna. Pozdrawiam jj.
A friend of mine always rode with a open face helmet and just sunglasses one day a bumblebee hit him and got inside his helmet and it stung him about three or four times before he could get stopped he swelled up so quickly he couldn’t get his helmet back on. never ride without a windshield or face shield
Glad that your eye is better, take care of you and listening to your body, and dont push to hard and have a rest when needed, otherwise if push to hard to long time you can get a backfire and need to take of for a longer time.
Don't feel you have to produce movies for us, youre health is moore important.
Best regards from a biker frend
take 1 co cetirizine 5 mg / day during max 5 days ! be carefull with driving !
Кинга здравствуй!мы с тобой одного возраста,и уже не молодые.Делай обязательно себе отдых,я тебя понимаю,постоянные нагрузки делают тебя уставшей.Может было бы лучше отправить мотоцикл на машине и самой на самолёт?Рад,что глаз выздоровел!Привет из России!
I am so sorry for you Kinga. I have vever seen something like that. But it defenitely was a rain drug😂.
அன்பான சகோதரி தமிழ்நாட்டுக்கு வாங்க உங்க பை குட்டி வாங்க நாங்க இருக்க முடியாது கன்னியாகுமரி கன்னியாகுமரி மாவட்டம் மயிலாட்டம் சொல்லி ஒரு பஞ்சாயத்து பஞ்சாயத்தில் இருக்கும் உங்களை எனக்கு நல்ல பிடிக்கும் நீங்க வண்டி விட்டுட்டு ஸ்டைலு வண்டி எல்லாமே நல்லா அழகா இருக்கு எனக்கு அண்டி ஒட்டுப்பு தமிழ்நாட்டுக்கு வாங்க நன்றி வணக்கம்
Your eye resembles that of Jesse Pinkman in season 1 episode 1 of breaking bad! Get well soon
Oh no....such a nasty injury!😥 It's great you got your poor eye sorted, almost back to the beautiful norm 😀 Any road up, we all love you to bits Kinga, so hope you can soldier on for another wee while then have a fantastic, well earned, rest.👍🏍
I'm REALLY happy to see that your eye cleared up so quickly. I hope you know to be careful about getting a North American tick bite. They can be VERY serious. Best wishes, and safe riding!! ❤
Hopefully it didn’t hurt to much, good luck with it Kinga 👊🏼👍🏼👌🏼💪🏼🤩
One time I got sushi to go and put it in my motorcycle's tail box. Half hour ride later, all the rolls were coated in wasabi and almost too hot to eat!
Total sympathy, while riding back home a bee hit me on the bridge of my nose, incredibly only part of my face not covered by goggles and tube, my whole face over night went up into a ballon, ended up at doctor getting a shot, took four days to go back to semi normal, friends said they could not recognise me. Been wearing a full face ever since that day.😮😮😮😮😮
When the pharmacist saw my photo she went into overdrive and said to my wife, who had gone to pick up some antihistamine tablets, get him to a doctor, too close to his brain.
They have a special kind of Nasty Deer Fly in Montana! Would bet that's what got ya! Any way sorry you had to go through that, but that had to be a long time ago, and now I would bet you're somewhere mo better!
My wife and I rode that pass last year. From the hot springs, it's an amazing 99-mile road of twisties heading south towards Idaho. There isn't much along that road, other than the Lochsa Lodge with the only fuel stop. She probably went north to Missoula to stay a couple nights. Which is about 10 miles or so from hot springs. I wouldn't want to head down through that pass with one good eye.
Oh, no! Are you sure you can ride?
Maybe you will need to do what Rocky did…
Aye. It is a learning curve. Never leave home without some antihistamines in the kit.
Ah Kinga, so sorry to hear, and see you like that. Hasn't that happened to you before? Hope New Zealand is being kinder to you! Love your channel.
I'm astounded how long that cracked windshield has lasted.
My Grandfather had one eye most of his life.
Fortunately during ww2 it kept him out of front line service.
So some good came from it.
I got stung by a bee on my eye lid once ,it wasn't quite as bad as yours ,but i understand how difficult it is to ride with one eye.
I hope your eye is now better.❤
Wish I could add a pic. Same bite, same eye, last fall. Sucks!
I lost my right eye when I struck a bird. I have been riding with one eye for years now. It is easier on a motorcycle than in a car.
tôi đã buồn cười với cái mắt của bạn. vì lúc trước tôi cũng bị như bạn 😅
Uauu 😰🙏 kinga
Eye eye! Seriously that looks dreadful…keep spirits up, it will heal
Bad bite. I didn't know you were so close to my stomping grounds when you rode through. Had plenty of room for you to recuperate as my guest. Missed ya! 😊
My wife got a bite on the eye lid but we ended up at the emergency room, and it took a week for the swelling to come down, fast forward two months and she still has a bit of scaring. We all think it was a spider or some sort of mite. Glad you're safe and looking cute as ever 😉
I have always said, you are the toughest. woman on the road. this proves it.
I’m sorry about your eye!
Just remember, this too shall pass...
Some can have everything and still look pretty!
I know this is a long time ago but when you tired you should rest never ride a motorcycle if you are tired or sick good luck and keep going💯
keep up the hard work, you will make it just fine, you are still pretty with a giant eye fo now
O dear, poor eye, poor Kinga, at least your hair still looks good...
I feel for you! I’ve been bee stung at least 3 times while running down the road. One on my eyelid, one in my nostril and once on the lip. Nearly crashed all three times. Benadryl helps and an ice pack helps too.
