- In this episode I am riding from Cuenca to Machala, on the coast of Ecuador. I chose a route straight through the mountains, so I don't have to ride the asphalt main roads. After climbing up to 4000 meters, I am descending straight into lush green jungle. That's Ecuador for you!!

I'm so happy you were in Cuenca (my city). Had I known you were here I would have been your tour guide. The scenes through the Cajas National Park and the lakes are astonishing. The tree plantation your ask for are Teca. An exotic tree, brought from somewhere in Asia, that's been heavily planted the last 20 years for its wood. It's good since reduces the demand of native tropical woods, but on the other hand its excessive plantations reduces dramatically the biodiversity and erodes the soil. The swamps you saw in Machala are actually mangrove forests, home of rich biodiversity: clams, crabs and birds.
It indeed is Teca or as we know it, Teak. I'm from India and my family has a plantation here where we have teak and i recognised the broad leaves that are constantly removed from the bottom so that the tree grows straight without branches. Only it's a native plant here but for you it would be exotic/invasive species.
@@KJ6EAD I think it was at the National Park entrance. It's managed by the local municipality and the public water service. Cuenca gets its water from those lakes and rivers and need to be properly managed and protected.
Nice information about those trees , in our country we have the wood of that tree they are using to make door and other wood furniture.We import them it’s first time to see in video the tree how they look like.
Great information Diego
I hope you get a reply from Nory..
Hopefully your environmental protection government takes in consideration your observation on your fragile land management.
Get in touch with nory perhaps she will share her stories with you..
@@aguarongo WalkTheDogs who commented below is correct. That is Paulownia Shantung aka empress, imported from China and not Tecas or teakwood. How can you tell the difference? At that age Tecas have light brown trunk and oval shaped leaves while Paulownias have green trunk and maple like leaves.
"go straight, go straight", "is the road open", "No" 🤣 - hilarious. You are a very brave lady, many thanks for bringing this to us.
He was actually giving her an alternate route saying "Solo a la derecha" which is "only to the right" and explaining where that trail would take her, but I guess it's hard to hear everything with headphones in and a helmet over.
Not critiquing her, just stating what I heard
Thank you for being one of the consistent bright spots on the internet. Your content brings joy to so many people myself included. Here's wishing you a very Happy New Year filled with adventure and good fortune!
Skip the "one of"! 🤗
How can there be twenty-seven thousand views in 1 hour with this lady she is so beautiful I love her so much God bless you please Lord Jesus look out for her and keep her safe.
But then again there is Harald Baldr who started a new adventure today in Nepal.
Amen, thank you Noraly for the beautiful views you share with us.
hear hear
Hi Norali!
You were right, that was papaya. And the tree plantation is known as teak, a hard wood from Asia. Also known as "teca" in spanish.
Regards from Costa Rica!
Gracias Jorge! My late Grandfather was a carpenter and many times heard from him this wood name.
That it is very precious and very good.
Teak wood from India.
Except that was balsa, not teak.
Come on Guys and Gals hit that LIKE button for this lady. It helps her to continue to produce these great videos that take a lot of work and effort to produce. Not enough viewers hit the button. Thank you.
One for you and one for her 👍
That's right, she deserves lots of LIKES! ,
was gonna hit the like button...till you came along preaching
I hit the like button at ALL of Noraly's videos! She & Alaska are just incredible together.
goodo - He isn't preaching... he was stating facts. Troll elsewhere.
I can't imagine the amount of work on the videos plus the amount of research regarding routes that you must go through every day. Amazing really.
I've Loved and watched you for years now. Thank you for all the adventure. You show us how everywhere around the world are good and descent people living life just like the rest of us. Makes me think if there were no governments there would be no conflict as most of the worlds inhabitance are kind.
Amen to that!!
Peace=....no governments or religions too....just Imagine ;-)
the place is called "Utopia"...... never stop wishing.... ; )
Everytime I read a comment like yours, it reminds me of John Lennon's song "Imagine". Imagine all the people living life in peace. Imagine the world could live as one. What a blessing that would be.
I consistently give thumbs up to this channel before seeing the videos. I know they deserve them beforehand.
It’s nice to watch how you’re skills on the bike are maturing. Your Spanish is fine. We must be able to speak Spanish on the coast of SE Texas too. I’m amazed at how great your videography and editing skills have developed. You’re a pro, now. It makes me feel like a proud for you. I have three daughters and you inspire all of us. Thank you for sharing. Texas
Noraly also speaks excellent English, so that should be fine for the United States. Why don't the Spanish speakers learn to speak English, they can then converse all over the US?
@@RichardASKBecause spanish is a beautifull romantic lenguage decending from "latin", the lenguage of Roman Empire the most important civilization in the history, English is the lenguange from a barbarian people of the south of Denmark, someday you can get it, speaking spanish is sexy
I'm Dutch myself, but my wife is from Texas (East Texas, near Lake Fork). Thing is... When you say you're proud, I just know that you actually mean that. I love the God honest sincerity of you Texan folks! That being said. Go Noraly! :D
@@RichardASK Why English sapeakers don't learn to speak Spanish, so that they could communicate all over the whole America and in the most beautiful country of Europe. US is not the belly buton of the world, my friend. ;)
@@marioflores7778compared to the genocidal Roman empire where killing people just for fun, slavery and pedophilia were commenplace I'd say those "barbarians" in Nw-Europe were quite civilised....
The trees you have seen are balsatrees. Latinsk navn: Ochroma pyramidale
Density: 150 kg/m3
Heigth: 20-30 meter after 4 år
Diameter: 25-35 cm after 4 år
Mængde: 150-200 m3 per hektar
They grow very fast, and they can soak a lot of co2 they are good for the climate as a plantation tree.
Love your travel, bee safe Noraly. Vagner from Denmark
That drone shot of you riding along that winding road was so amazing 🤩
What a gorgeous place all 1000 potholes are worth it ‼️
Uf que hermoso es Ecuador, espero algun dia conocer ese bello pais y a su gente tan cariñosa.................abrazos a esa bella tierra
Gracias por apreciar mi país Ecuador.
Hills are hills, mountains are mountains, valleys are valleys, and streams are streams. While I always enjoy visuals of landscapes, I especially enjoy the interactions with the local folks who make that country unique. It's the people of a country that make that country uniquely theirs. Thanks for that treat.
ECUADOR TE AMA. Gracias por visitarnos.
Beautiful mountains. Watching you on the bike from drone shows just how tiny we are on a beautiful planet. I like the footage to music. Takes me away. Thank you
I never wonder "why on earth did she come to this place?" I am always sure you have your reasons and I am just glad you're taking us along for the ride!
Alaska sounds as if she is very happy to be at the lower altitude, her "pitch note" sounds much healthier. Love how your cinematography/filmmaking has evolved over the series of adventures. Addictive viewing and what a beautiful, brave girl you are.
Because there are no hills to climb.
@@saigonnais because at lower altitude there is more oxygen. Smh 🙄
The fuel charge changes with the elvation.
Τα λόγια είναι λίγα, βλέποντας αυτές τις εικόνες των ταξιδιών σου,τι όμορφος που είναι ο πλανήτης μας, ευχαριστώ πολύ πολύ
I would have never started watching these videos if not for Noraly traveling through Ecuador and mentioning Chimborazo. I lived there for two years back in the 70's and loved it. Now I'm going through this flood of memories and grateful. Mostly for her kindness and how well she relates with a people that I love so much.
Norally, you are by far, the best vlooger on RUclips. The variety and quality editing of your videos is superb. Thank you for allowing us to come on this fantastic journey with You. Ride safe
Rottie--Amen, She is a Keeper for Sure--Very Courageous Young Woman but I know Angels are her Co-Pilots or she would have already Run Off a Mtn. Cliff..
Another amazing ride. Coming through that cloud was stunning.
Incredible Ecuador!! Well captured.
Thank you Noraly and Alaska!!
the landcsape is gorgeous. what an incredible feeling riding alone in that stunning beauty !
Valiente Holandesa, me gustan tus viajes. Gracias por mostrar mi país, en toda su plenitud. Cuídate y disfrútalo !!!
All that motorcycle training of different types you got at home really shows up in your riding skills now!
I'm sure Noraly sees it all the time, but her riding skills really seem to have progressed substantially. I was amazed she was comfortable riding those potholes/sticky mud at such a high speed -- I think that Rally really helped Noraly to gain courage. And how does the Honda compare to the Royal Enfield? I would imagine it's like riding a lightweight bicycle.
The best ride in Ecuador so far I think. From a nice looking city, through beautiful mountains on a fantastic road, and finishing on the coast. I knew nothing at all about Ecuador but now I really want to go there. Keep going Noraly, this is endlessly enjoyable.
You always choose the most difficult and dangerous routes ever time the roads you explore ( travel)are some of the most beautiful and remote out of the way places I’ve ever seen the country is full of surprises particularly those clouds ☁️ in the valley or the hillside mountains absolutely amazing 🤩
The trees with the giant leaves at 18:08 look like Paulownia trees. They bloom a light lavender in the Spring. Extremely fast-growing and can make a lumber crop in a very short timeframe. Those were probably small 6" seedlings a few months earlier. I have them on my ranch. I feed the leaves to my alpacas.
Another great video and in a part of Ecuador I never saw. I believe those trees are Paulownia, also called Empress. It's a very fast-growing, lumber-producing tree used mostly for furniture and lower end musical instruments. It's similar to bamboo in its uses and growth rate (up to 20 feet/year in an agreeable climate and soil). Also, one of the wild species is highly invasive like bamboo but the cultivated ones are actually pretty difficult to grow from seeds. These look cultivated and are probably non-invasive.
@WalkTheDogs......thanks for sharing the answer to Noraly's quiz @17:49. Have a great day, mate.
I believe those plants are Teak. Both plants have ridiculous big leaf whey they are juvenile. so, it can go either way. Teak have been widely planted in South and Central America.
Paulownia is also used in boat building for it's light weight and anti-rot properties. I have not seen it for sale in the Northern hemisphere only in the southern.
@@davidgoodman3399 Japanese love that wood. They have been using it forever. The wood has some anti insect properties, so they use and refuse their furniture for generations live in the SouthEast of the U.S and I saw it once in a place I buy fine lumber. I never saw it again.
I am pretty sure it is Teak. The Paulownia tree is more christmas tree in shape, and the Teak tree is more Vertical. These are more vertical and thin like the Teak Farms.
Everything in this video is great: the ride, scenery, comments and related info on them. Noraly rides, we watch the videos, and a genuine symbiosis of adventure feeding our curiosity arises. Keep going safely and steadily Noraly, good on you!
I enjoy the way you present the dynamic scenery from ariel photography to helmet cam and selfie stick to handlebar prospective. Great camera work and editing. Noraly you are a very talented travel guide for your virtual tourists.
Une véritable aventurière!😃👍👍👍👍👍
How cool and practical is that!! Just putting your rain coat on like a hoody. That's pretty awesome👌🏻
Your a beast.jez, when I do 300 kms a day on my fjr and I am tired. Your physical abilities to cover the kms you ride a day is as strong as your mind set.
Ride hard, ride fast is my thing. You know your bike very well I can see.
You smell the roses
I wish I could do the same.
I did the mountain to coast ride down from Salinas de Guaranda in 2018, and it really emphasized to me how radically the climate can change in a day's ride. From high alpine treeless almost tundra landscape to tropical fruit and date palm plantation in 5 hours on the bike.
I hope you had some nice ceviche at the coast, and I look forward to your next video!
Ceviche I love it!
Thank you very much, Noraly for sharing God’s miraculous work in nature as you trek across Ecuador- such a incredible gift to us all. I’m so surprised at another seamless video composition - your drone footage in the Andes with the music composition is a great joy! Thank you and Godspeed! 🙏
Your riding skills/confidence seem to be continually improving Noraly. Super photographic work too 🇬🇧
and then one thinks that Paris - Dakar is something. Tough guys with all the worlds possible support, doctors, logistics etc etc. Your videos are going to get me back on MC! YOU ARE TOUGH! Danki wel!
The scenery around the 8-10 mins in is very much like the Highlands of Scotland or the Cambrian Mountains in Wales. Didn't expect that from the Andes. 🙂
my thoughts as well, Scotland on steroids perhaps,then transformed to rain forest! nice ride
Yeah thought the same reminded me of Cwm Ystwyth on the way to Rhyader
@@christopherplatt6853 Was over in Elan Valley in my 90-year-old car back in July. Those hills are murder in a vintage motor with cable-operated drum brakes!!
Ditto, I said the same thing about Scotland!
The Paramos, those Andean high altitude ecosystems are incredibly beautiful. Noraly pass thorough El Cajas National Park which is strikingly similar to the Scottish Highlands. Many British visitors have said so, and I could witness the same thing when I saw "Brave Heart" and the "Outlander" Netflix series.
Though the Andes is quite a young range mountain (60 million years old), the Ecuadorian Southern mountains are older than the Northern ones. That means volcanic formation stop millions of years ago, meanwhile in the north the formation still is going on. Natural erosion plus thick glaciers once covered the area are responsible for thousands of lakes and an astonishing landscape today.
Your joy and positivity is always inspiring. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.
Itchy boots you're amazing . You bring the world to us. Thank you
Noraly, you are so lucky to lead such an interesting life. As a thousand other people have said , thank you for bringing us along.
Wow I felt like I was there. The whole experience from the changing landscape and road conditions to the glimpse of the Pacific was amazing. Thank you 🙏🏽
When I see the brick streets in the cities I think of how much work went into laying those bricks. I love the beautiful scenery on your trips. Thank you for letting me escape from the troubles of this world to see God's beautiful creations. God bless you.
One of the best things about the holidays, time off and catching a new Itchy Boots video as soon as it comes out! Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year Noraly! Now I’m off to go riding. Lol. “Let’s Go!”
Absolutely stunning. Love your vids. Thank you.
Hi Noraly, the soundtrack when you passed the check point is amazing, I have heard the bump of the heart of the world🌎!
Simply stunning! Ciao, Edoardo
Once more a very informative video with a lot of scenery. Sightseeing through Noraly's camera. Ride on Noraly
My favorite YT channel hands down! The Adventures of NORALY continues... BRAVO! 🥰💥💛👍😁 Our World is vast & so beautiful.
Love the interesting information that you provide in your videos, but honestly, I could listen to you reading from a telephone book ! Your ‘accent’ in English is just adorable 🥰. Thank you so much for the content of EVERY video. I’m a HUGE FAN. Please stay safe and well, Noraly !
I am a mountain person too. Never really liked going to beaches except as a kid. Change of scenery is often a good thing and expected when exploring a new country. Happy travels!
I'm more of a mountain type as well, but I never would live more than a few hours drive from the ocean. Gotta have both in my life!
+3 for mountains here! Sunrise or sunset over a mountain. Heaven.
@@mhks68 On Cape Cod, Massachusetts - you can see the sun rise over the Atlantic, and set in the Bay on the same day. Just have to walk a couple of miles!
@@savage22bolt32 well it's Cape Cod. Which I'd imagine it's fairly gorgeous all over. Of topic. In Panama you can see the sun rise over the Pacific and set over the Atlantic. That'd be awesome to see.
Gracias por hacernos conocer a nosotros los Ecuatorianos...el maravilloso pais que tenemos..con lo bueno lo malo ..lo feo...viendo que otras personas lo disfrutan mas que nosotros...muchas gracias.....
Those trees are called Paulownia. Drive safe! You are the best!
Your riding skills certainly have improved a lot over the years . That mud ride is so tricky and stressful . Yes , get rid of those tyres ! The sooner the better !
In the Eastern US is a mountain range called the Smokey Mountains. They are called that because of the cloud formations similar to what you encountered in this video. Ride safe and have fun 🇺🇸
great video my friend Noraly thanks for showing my little and beautiful country
Hi Noraly , once again thanks for sharing your fantastic and well produced journeys with us , hope rev'it read these comments because thanks to you ive just bought a pair of rev'it jeans and a rev'it vendome 3 jacket and couldn't be happier with it , all the very best CV
I have lived in Ecuador on the coast for 0ver 7 years. Some of the most beauiful scenery is along the coast, hills, trees, rain forrests and rock formations. You should ride the coastal roads sometime.
What fantastic scenery along the backroad you took. Goodness the mud was a challenge but so well handled. Such great drone footage and camera work gave a a wonderful experience of riding along with you. I think it is great to go where the adventure takes you to see what you want to see! Thank you Noraly!
That music. So beautiful when the drone is flying.
Heaven...the only one on the mountain road.... ! Love the drone shots and music. ❤
17:46 Those are balsa trees. Ecuador is the world’s largest exporter of this wood to the world. The demand for balsawood has increased dramatically as the number of wind farms in China has increased. Sadly, balsawood plantations are insufficient to meet this demand, and the majority of balsa wood is illegal and comes from indigenous peoples' territories in the Amazonia, also affecting the Peruvian Amazon region 😞. Enjoy Ecuador, a wonderful country! Hope to see you in Perú soon. Ride safe! 🙌
Now I am curious, was it balsa or teak/teca, like others have written 😳
Absolutely no traffic on that dirt road. Excellent!
I am 69 and have been a rider since I was 13 years old. I live vicariously through your riding. I am fit enough to ride with you for a couple of weeks and would give anything to share in your adventur 2 wks)e and even stay off camera just enjoy the adventure with you. I wish you so much luck and I'm so happy for you the way you live your life it's truly amazing.
You're gunning it on those slippery roads! Very impressed! I would have wiped out long ago.
Gracias por mostrar una interpretación honesta y muy aproximada de mi país... Buen viaje, siempre.
"Excellent!" Itchy Boots' Excellent Ecuadorian Adventure! Next up: Alaska Meets the Amazon. There's a channel called Jumping Places that just toured the waterfalls of the Amazon River on the Brazil side. Looking forward to Friday and seeing what's on the Ecuador side. Happy trails!
Ecuador was a challenge to drive around due to the landslides when we were there last year. We were working all over in Ecuador for their hydro power plants. I can't wait to return.
What a nice ride! Bumpy for you but so serene and beautiful with all your drone, camera, and music works combined. Love the changes in flora. Ecuador has much variety to enjoy for you to show us. Thanks Noraly!
The scenery is so beautiful!
Thank you for bringing it to us.
I'm hooked.
Thoroughly enjoying your videos Noraly. It is really impressive that you can produce such quality output whilst you are travelling. All the best for 2022 and the rest of your travels to Alaska. Ride safe.
Such an amazing contrast all in one day, rain forest, moors(like Dartmore in England), then down again to rain forest and raging river, tricky muddy road, interesting re tyres, original are never as good as bought, just like many fittings on the bike, hope rest holds up and doesn’t break like the last one!
Nice ride today , now we have seen the ocean let’s head back up to the mountains. Sounds like a plan .
I feel the nature calling me too outstanding scenery thank you for sharing the video is fantastic very good quality
After watching every video you have published I am convinced I need to ride more. I have a decent motorcycle and want to experience a ride to Alaska from Massachusetts. I survive the winter through your videos Noraly. Thank you for being a good will ambassador and a very very good biker.👍👍. Ride safe.
Call me we ll go together! Im in Bridgewater and my Bmw is ready to go 🤗
@@fatrod81 June 1st, rain or shine. My R1200 GSA is also ready!!
Noraly, I am watching you now in cold and snowy Sedona, Arizona. Just came back from Flagstaff near Grand Canyon! The point is that all of these places are so beautiful, especially for you since you are a geologist. They are formed over 150 million years. There is no other place on earth so gorgeous. You must visit this place. Hppy New Year and be safe!
Beautiful area and loved the lush vegetation there. So glad you share your adventures with us and look forward more. Thanks again and our prayers are with you for a safe journey and an enjoyable one too.
Norali, i am so so happy that you decided visit Ecuador, i fell jealous because as a ecuadorian i had never been in this routes, a Big Shout to Alaska, a dream of a bike, but also is been ridden by a Gentle Soul as you, good luck for the rest of the Adventure and thanks for you videos.. you got me Glued to every single of you episodes 😇
Actually, I think it is the Palauwnia or Kiri tree, also called ‘the tree that will save the world!’ because of its capability of absorbing CO2 10 times faster than other trees! Maybe you can make it the new mascot of your trip and promote it. Keep up the great work!!! Mark Verleye.
And as soon as you burn a tree or if the tree rot, the Co2 is releesed again.
@@samueljonsson1248 a wooden house van last up to 200 years ….
I believe those are Teca, an exotic tree planted for its wood. All trees absorb CO2, but the single tree plantations reduces the biodiversity
@@aguarongo I don't think biodiversity is the point of a tree Plantation
@@samueljonsson1248 True but not all of it, And if it's being made into houses and furniture it will probably end up in a landfill after 50 to a 100 years where it will be locked away underneath a nice park in the city somewhere.
Another amazing day in your adventure! Like you, I prefer the mountains over the coast any day. But, to each his own! Thank you for this grand tour and the beautiful drone footage! Ride safe Noraly!
Good Morning, Noraly! There is no better way to start the day than to follow you on your adventures.🌞
Love the fantastic drone footage! 😍👀Potholes = paying close attention! 😜😁
Wishing you all the best and many, many Happy Trails for ItchyBoots and Alaska. 🌞🏍😎🤠
Noraly, The landscape views are truly gorgeous and the drone footage is fully awesome, Lovely country side, Thank again for sharing your adventures, CHEERS !!!
What a beautiful country and landscape! And Alaska is just hermosa!
Lindas paisagens e valeu apenas mostrar essa região do Equador 🇪🇨 feliz ano novo Noraly e te desejo muitas jornadas pelo mundo
Gracias, tus vídeos son una maravilla.
Hello, from Turkey… I am eagerly waiting and watching every episode… The trees we see in the plantation in this episode are the fast growing Paulownia tree.I think so
Wunderbar! Wunderbare Menschen, ganz besonders, das Mädchen auf dem Moped. Die Welt könnte so schön sein, ohne Politik.
Love and respect from namma Bengaluru, India
Thank you Noraly for showing us the world as we would never have seen it. South America, the Andes and the Amazon rainforest in particular, have always drawn my imagination. Really loving seeing it with you. Looking forward to your travels around eastern Equador and the Amazon. Safe Travels and keep that wonderful smile on you!!
Amazing how the terrain changes going to the Pacific side of the mountains. the rain shadow effect is very evident in how much rainfall gets rung out by the uplifting of the mountains. Very nice job on the video editing. Safe Travels Noraly.
Those big leaf trees look like Paulownia to me, a fast growing timber plantation tree. Thanks for the ride, beautiful.
It's more like Oxytree.
@@karolgolden231 Yes thats another name for it.
@@boonah153 Oh, I didn't know it. Thanks Paul!
Saludos como siempre desde Argentina Noraly y sigo diciendo que la mejor eleccion de moto hasta ahora fue la CRF 300 RALLY de Honda la mejor para la mejor piloto internacional,GRATULATIONS!!!!
K hermoso que es Ecuador no había conocido esa parte tan bonita de mi país pero con ustedes conozco este país y los que recorren gracias
Excelente video Noraly! Viví en Ecuador hasta septiembre y recorrí bastante en moto y sus paisajes son increíbles. Fuerte abrazo
Your story telling and film making get better every trip, some stunning shots here. 👌🏻💯👍🏻🏴
Love your uploads. Beautiful scenery all around. Alaska seems to be in her element on unpaved roads. I started rinding long distances looking at your India to Netherlands season amd have been a fan ever since.
Muy bellos lugares, un verdadero placer andar por allí! Gracias por compartir esta experiencia!!
Amazing, absolutely amazing, I can't find a more fitting superlative to describe what Noraly does and continues to do so. I can only wish you the best of wishes for the new year and may your adventures bring you the happiness and pleasure it gives us humble viewer/riders. Well done, if you could bottle you enthusiasm and spirit, I would bid for a portion of it. What Courage!
She's gonna hit 1 million subscribers for sure during this Trip. Probably even before reach the U.S.
But i predict a HUGE amount of new subscribers when she starts touring the US of A. And she deserves every taste of it.
Hi Noraly!
I just want to let you know that you are an inspiration for me. I've always loved bikes my whole life. I hope one day, I will be able to travel to places (via country roads of course 😉) I've never been too, just like you. If by some crazy chance that we'd meet in person, let's take a selfie together 😊 Love lots from the Philippines.
Great episode Itchy, my daughters and I love watching your adventures. So positive, so informative, have a great new year.
