- In this episode I am trying to leave Zimbabwe, to go back to South Africa. The border I am using is still closed however. Trying to save a 3-4 day detour, I am going to give it a go. Will they let me out?

Rule Number 1 in Africa....respect goes a very long way. You lose nothing and you'll open many doors. Noraly is an expert.
💯
When engaging with the border guards they all seemed to get the same feeling so many of us. This Lady is such a charmer, always with a laugh and being most respectful.
@@johnelewis203 Absolutely!
Flirting u mean
Sorry thats too much
@@glywnniswells9480 Not professional at all.
Do you know that the Minister of Sports, Arts and Recreation in Zimbabwe follows you on insta and watches your stuff.... She is a big fan
She should be appalled at the boarder waiting for goods from SA to help the Zim people.
@@donaldbarber5160 totally agree. That border crossing looks horrendous. The levels upon levels of bureaucracy and stamping and passport checking seems needlessly excessive and arbitrary. People trying to justify the existence of their jobs? I suspect so.
@@jordanaus75 That happens at almost every border around d world, Noraly is showing d process 4 d first time this season. Check out d border crossing vids from previous seasons.
That Zimbabwean soldier at the border was very surprised when you told him you're coming from Chimanimani riding a bike. I heard him telling the other officers saying "she is coming all the way from Chimanimani with that bike!". He actually marvelled your braveness it's unbelievable and I give you thumbs up too.
I think everyone is in complete and utter awe of Noraly. I know I am.
It is great that you provided the translation. You have made the episode much better with your comment!
Thank so much you take me rounds Africa I hope you will take us rounds other countinet
he's south African
So true 😂😂😂😂
The border is not open Noraly, it is only open to commercial Trucks, but it was opened for you, such is our gratitude. Thank you for showcasing our beautiful country. I hope you will come back again.
Thank you Noraly for visiting Zimbabwe you have shown the world how beautiful our country is 😊🇿🇼🔥🔥
Welcome back to Suid Afrika, l told people that she is coming back.
Goodbye Norally ❤️👋 ,thank you so much for visiting Zimbabwe...Take care and be safe always
Hope to see her again ❤️😍
Noraly, i appreciate ur respect for local authorities . . . u got a beautiful personality best wishes in the coming journeys
That might also be described as sucking up. Effective but it works.
nic bike
The reason that soldier was suspicious at first was the fact that you had cameras and mentioned you came from the Chimanimani area. They cannot fathom how one could ride all the way from there to the border. Before you left the soldier was taking with his colleague saying " She came all the way from Chimanimani on that bike in shock"....lol testament to your determination and drive Noraly💪🏻💪🏻💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🫀
For Noraly i say in Dutch: je hebt mij een geweldige inkijk gegeven in het leven én de natuur van dit deel van Afrika.
Recht uit het hart zeg ik, veel dank daarvoor.🌍
I have watched every episode so far and I don't regret it. This channel is a gem of RUclips. I never had Africa on my list, now I have the continent on my list. Thank you for showing us the world, it's an adventure you will remember for a lifetime. Greetings from Northern Germany! 🇩🇪 🇿🇦
The only thing missed was too little time spent in the Cape. Cape Town alone can soak up 2 weeks of travel before you leave the city. It's the best place on earth.
Danke dass du here bist
I've said it before, and I'll say it again, Noraly is a "World Treasure" and she is sharing her travels with all of us. She's truly a gem for sure.
@@michaelsmorenburg-writer8480 I think many might disagree with that..
@@haydonditchburn2194 Why? CT is truly the most beautiful city on the planet.
Good decision on Mozambique. Self preservation is always the best decision.
Decision seconded. Much relieved.
@@alanfoster6589 It's 2400km from Maputo in the South to the Pemba in the north where the insurgents are. She could have crossed from any point on the Moz/Zim border and would have been at least 1000km from the insurgency.
@@MartinMenge Certainly. I have a friend in Pakistan who keeps telling me how safe it is to visit there. Another in Lebanon. Noraly has taken plenty of risks in her travels. One has to pick and choose...and apparently she needs to be back in S.A. for something special, so visiting Moz was out anyway.
That “Social Distance Hug” with that Border guy is so cute 🥰
Everyone wants to travel with ItchyBoots 🙋🏻♀️
That was the first time I've seen her acting even slightly flirty. That guy was trying to shoot his shot but she has heard it all before I'm sure. She is a great ambassador for the riding community. I'm always amazed/confused by her lack of helmet hair?
I don't know... He seemed kinda creepy to me.
@@AdmireM Everyone has their creepy line. She was in absolutely no danger. I'm sure she gets much worse several times a week. Well...I AM in the USA where sexual harassment isn't a disqualifier for Potus. So my point of view might be skewed. Don't get me wrong, I'm not even remotely like he was. Had a buddy that would flirt with a Nun and lots of time...it worked. Not me.
@@gailtaylor1636 Did Noraly say 'Love you long time' when she left the Casanova SA police officer? That is what I heard.
@@saigonnais That's what I heard too. She has a sense of humor.
She's so naturally good humoured, literally taking everything good or bad in her stride. Those are qualities you need to have on cross country traveling, they help to disarm prejudice. The 1st one of her episodes and I already feel like I'll be watching many more of them. Funny to find this on my recommends list.
That laugh of hers has probably saved her life on more than one occasion
Noraly is by all means a world travelled ambassador…. She has taken us to many parts of the world on her motorbike, which amazingly is a great accomplishment.. season 5 has taken us to parts of South Africa that many of us will never travel to, but, Noraly has shown us how kind the African people are…. More people should travel to Africa to help tourism , I have pinpointed spots where Noraly stayed and hopefully will one day visit a few and say to myself, “wow, I stayed where Noraly stayed….”
Of course people tend to be a lot kinder to beautiful women travellers as can also be seen on many parts of this video. She also knows how to compliment discreetly. So guys should not expect smooth border crossings all the time in my opinion.
Probably it's her unique, calm personality that surprises the officials at border crossing and the many checkpoints.
She just laughs her way through the borders
On a motorcycle, you can't really think about more than where you are. There's a freedom that comes with that - from stress, worry, sweating the small stuff.❤️
Yeah easier to say where you've been than where you're going...
😊
I had a minor stroke so my riding days are over ( maybe) . But I had a great run raced for 8 years rode from Chicago to Key West on many trips...so I'm good. I loved all 26 of my motorcycles and feel lucky to have had them.
That’s just it. It puts you in the moment.
You've learned the ways of Africa very well. All you need to do is greet people with a smile, be assertive in a friendly way, make a few jokes, flirt lightly, be authentic and you'll have no problems at all.
I am totally dumbfounded by the border chaos and the miles of trucks just sitting there. You are amazing the way you handled the border crossing.
The border is being rebuilt by a private company to improve the operations hence the construction work. The handover is under way.
@@shumbamutasa Great, thanks for the clarification. I did notice the new road construction as she rode in.
@@phillip1115 Yes there are a lot of detours. The road is being repaired but this is phase 1. Phase 2 is dualisation. As you can see this route is very busy.
At 16:59 the soldier says to his peers in Shona: "she came from Chimanimani with that bike", he seems impressed
I just love how the Zim side is well secured lol, the Soldiers admired your tolerance to long rides.
I like how you sweet talk people in uniform so that they don’t create unnecessary trouble for you. Good job! You must address this topic for those dreaming of following your footsteps! Keep riding!
And in this part of world there is no man or woman riding motorbike. They are surprised to see.
She don't… You probably talking about what you do… She do the opposite… She just are natural and speak to them like they are family or friends. Don't lie, manipulate or act extra nice and slimy. Try it sometime, and life gets easier.
Customs officers will see straight through bullshit, if you try anything. Then you get a lot of problems, because they think you are hiding something from them. They are usually right.
@@Gismo3333 If you’re not planning to follow our wonderful host to Africa on a motorcycle, I have no desire to respond to you. But if you are, I hope she actually see’s this comment and indulges us all in what it’s really like.
She's not speak talking anyone. She's naturally polite and friendly. People respond positively to that than fake politeness. Across Africa, good manners and respect are a currency that everyone responds to, regardless of their status or authority. You can get a lot done by simply being polite and showing genuine good manners. It's not "sweet talking", it's having good manners.
I think she's caught in to an unwritten rule when dealing with uniformed folks. Acknowledge their presence, and this descalates the situation.
Your interactions with people is a window into your soul. You are so captivating. Even people who only talk with you a minute see it. Nice to see these moments.
And you have now introduced me to a new favorite musical artist. I don't know how I missed hearing Tim McMorris all these years. I've plug him into my work computer and am now listening to his work while I work. Thank you for another great video that's changed my daily life... again.
I loved that music to... did not know it .. you spared me the search on internet... so thank you for naming the artist... very.. very happy with it..
Andy has it right people in all cultures recognize a good soul instant love. Thanks
All those trucks, hours and hours of waiting..unbelievable..
As long as the line is for these trucks I'm thinking it's going to be days before they get in.
This is why they built the Kazungula bridge. Bypassing Zim altogether
Like Dover.
That's bietbridge for u. Eish
Such a pity u didn't go to Kariba
I'm from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 we loved having you and hopefully you visit again.
Great to see the road construction on the Masvingo-Beitbridge road. Thanks for visiting Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 Hope you’ll be back soon
"At last she came to the banks of the great, grey-green, greasy Limpopo River all set about with fever trees, ..." , welcome back to South Africa 🇿🇦 Savanna and Noraly.
@@BrassLock Kipling also never actually saw the Limpopo.
@@BrassLock Sorry don't remember but heard it decades ago. He spent a lot of time in the Cape, was in Kimberley and Orange Free State where at some rail siding was shot at by Boers during the war.
@@BrassLock That is so true he must have used "poetic license" for sure. I once heard or read that Kipling once stayed at the just opened Willoughby's building (which now houses the National Art Gallery of Zimbabwe in Bulawayo) when he was in Bulawayo. I can't find my source as well so it is possible that he never actually saw the Limpopo river.
Those poor truck drivers waiting in miles long lines and barely moving while Savanah just zips along.
This week is dubble what you see here...now the trucks blocked the way here at our border post.... some truck drivers are already in line in S.A now for 10 days !!!! Feel so sorry for them...... Zimbabwe is holding up all these trucks ....only a few a day .... get to go
But So nice to see my border post on RUclips. ....
I was surprised to hear a vocal soundtrack, but it was great truck-dodging music... and conveyed your excitement to be going back to South Africa. Can't wait to see what you have up your sleeve there!
Welcome back to SA Noraly!!!
@@tinkiehattingh947 What is the title of the lovely soundtrack? Can you please inform. It suited for the road, definitely.
@@bonkowar l read someone said the musician is Tim McMorris
That last policeman at the border fell in love with your eyes, instantly!
"Will they let me go....." of course they will. You're our Itchy Boots Tour leader with charm, charisma, positivity and a friendly outlook.
I had zero doubts. Loved the music as you charged forward on the asphalt "channel". This was the first time in 5 seasons that you played an audio track with vocals. Well chosen. Perfecto! Loved the way you "threaded" Savanah through that maze of trucks/lorries.
CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT EPISODE.
Take care and ride safe. 🖖🏽🤟🏽
Well done Noraly and thank you for visiting Zimbabwe! Safe travels!
The border on the Zim side is being reconstructed on the Zim side by w private company on a BOT basis. Phase 1 is complete and the handover is being done. It should become more efficient in the coming months.
Looks very orderly, considering the scale of work that is done IMHO!
@@thearchibaldtuttle Its a little chaotic to be fair but hopefully it will become more orderly after the handover.
Hahahayayayqyayaay
Appreciate your sharing the realities of Zimbabwe to South Africa boarder crossing. Kept waiting for the line of trucks to end. This video says a lot without saying anything 😉🚛🚚🚛🚚🚛🚚🚛🚚🚛🚚🚛🚚🚛🚚🌍
Sending Aloha from Kauai 🏝😎
Maybe it is high time they rebuild the railway line. I wonder how many days those poor truckies have to wait in line there.
@@breitie804 most of those tucks are through to malawi/zambia/congo. That's why you see that road being widened
Some trucks are now at the border more than 10 days!!!! To go to Zimbabwe . The trucks are 7 km from the border. 3 Km from the nearest town Musina .... waiting .
They are now dubble and the road is blocked. Hard to be a truckdriver
@@sa777 I have great respect for truck drivers 🚛🚚 The situation at the border must be difficult & stressful. Hopefully the border will ease up the restrictions & passage will be more smoothly soon. Sending Aloha from Kauai, Hawaii 🏝🐬⛵️
Much respect for showcasing Zimbabwe
It was kind of sad to leave Zimbabwe. I could just stay there in the mountains among the tea and banana plantations, at that beautiful cottage you stayed at. I would be happy, and go riding whenever I wanted to, exploring all those dirt roads in the mountains, and enjoy the company of all the nice African people. Yeah, I could do that and maybe never leave.
As a Zimbabwean I can assure you it gets old after a while lol. I only go to the highlands for a month max then go back to Harare.
You should visit during the wet season, November to April but then you may not be able to get through the dirt roads but the landscape will be amazingly green and wider waterfalls
@@Wesley-ls5wh speak for yourself. As a zimbabwean who has lived abroad for years, l would prefer living in the Eastern Highlands than hararr or the city.
You should visit the Vumba Mountains in Zimbabwe
@@Wesley-ls5wh true. We always miss the place where we aren't.
You can make a 40 min video and we can still watch it at easy coz your videos are so captivating and I don’t know why ! Sometimes you say “ a lot of tar and not much to see” Noraly you don’t know what we like seeing !!! We like seeing you riding whether on tar or not and we are not here much for touristic things, much of us only cares where ever your bike takes you to, just everything ! Don’t worry about anything, to be honest with you, I liked this video so much and I wish if it was like 35 to 40 minutes !!! Wishing you all the best Noraly, with whatever plans you have, whether you are heading back home or another continent lots of us will still be with you 🤗👍👌💓
I would have watched a 15 hour video… And I still wanted more…
Oh Noraly, I literally LOL when you told the Border Crossing Officer. "Love you long time" made me laugh so hard. I have not heard that since I was a young soldier returning from overseas in the 70s! I've been praying for you that you along with the others would be safe from isis and the other terrorist activity. God's Speed. Big Hugs
That was used in South Vietnam. Full metal jacket.
Couldn't believe she said that.
@@advandersnoek6280 said with 🙄🙄🙄😄😄 not to his face though 😂😂😇😇
I'm old us navy sailor went all over the South pac., never thought I would hear her say " Love you long time" I laughed my ass off.
I did a double take as well. Not sure of her meaning behind it, if any?
May I just say I have a new found respect for all the truck drivers out there. They have long being under appreciated. To Noraly, continue to travel safely, we appreciate your opening the world to us through unfiltered eyes.
These people are incredible! They bring all the goods they are needed to all different parts of the world and they have to wait hours and hours for to pass! Salute and a big thanks to all these lorry drivers ♥️🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼you are amazing ♥️🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
Truckers Rock!! 🚚🚚🚚🚚✊
Truck driving is a unique experience, Im glad i had the experience driving them for a while as I learnt alot about myself and life.
Unfortunately people are often in a rush and forget that trucks are far bigger than their cars etc and take lot longer to slow down. you get really awesome instincts at predicting what people in cars will do before they do it to avoid squashing them when they jump infront of you! Funny enough its usually the same people who complain when their items arent on the shelves or deliveries are late lol
Bikes are usually alot more aware because they understand how easily they can end up in a body bag, so they are usually as aware of their surroundings as a truck driver to avoid accidents :)
@@jamie.miller.inspiring As both truck driver AND biker I can confirm your remarks are spot-on !!
Another beautiful episode, you are very good and with your kindness you get through everything easily.
The danger with this kind of travel is in borders and police, not the people.
You are doing well keep going!
Love your videos! As a kid I lived in Apeldoorn NL, and then also lived in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. Africa is a very special place, the people are beautiful, and you are highlighting your travels in such a wonderful way with your audience - thank you so much for sharing!
I always have a smile on my face while enjoying a new Itchy Boots episode. Thank you for brightening my day.
same and in this one I also particularly liked the song track, so uplifting!!!
You can't blame my brother Cyril for shooting his shot when a pretty girl came riding by.
Welcome back to SA! And thanks for sharing the adventures 😊
But Cyril is a Police doing his job,that's not time to flirt with women,that's unprofessional.
At time of writing, one person has 'disliked' this. If only we could ask that person just what is it they don't like about this video - it would be interesting to hear their explanation.
Inadvertently
But that's not me lol
Yes I'd like to know 😅 myself
There are 10 dislikes now. . .ALL Jealous as they don’t have the guts to do it themselves.
Jealous of someone who has d guts to do it all alone for so long .. very gutsy noraly..
Who else held their breath when Noraly rode between the large trucks?
Yes, I was thinking the same thing "Is she going to be able to get through?" and she just gets through like a boss!
thats the gopro field of view if Noraly's is the same as my hero5 its 3mm focal length which makes things you pass seem much closer than in reality.... but it still looked tight!
My mind thought she gonna stuck between the trucks
I'm a biker and even I was holding my elbows in as she went through that gap - proper squeaky!
@@dragonoffski4501 I was waiting for her handlebars to hit one or the other.
I am waiting with such anticipation to see or hear what your “secret” plans are coming up now that you’re back in ZA!!
Noraly, you are such a world ambassador now, you’ve got this growing mountain of faithful and inspired viewers, just like me, waiting on your every move in each of your episodes.
I love it that there is someone like you on RUclips, doing your part, intentional or not, to bring this world a little closer together... you are doing just that!
It’s also so entertaining watching you charm each and every road guard or border person that you come across, without even trying! wonderful.
Now on to your secret!!...
This Africa season it`s amazing, you have shown me landscapes that i cant imagine they exist, so thanks for that. Ride safe, cheers from Portugal.
I would never have the patience of those truck drivers sitting at the border. Much respect to them.
It must take the truckers a week to cross the border.
Right. I noticed people don’t comment on that…it must be extremely normal to delay their incoming supplies. I couldn’t either.
Wow thank you so much once again for visiting my country and enjoying every step of your journey.Even though you fell once on the muddy road Zimbabwe loves you and wishes you safe travels...💕💓💞💖💟✊✌👌🙏🙏🙏
Good bye Noraly, it was nice having you here in Zimbabwe, i hope you enjoyed every bit of your stay. Firstly encountered your video when you entered Zimbabwe through Kazungula border, so far i have watched all your previous episodes in South Africa, Namibia and Botswana, was hoping you are going to Mozambique after Zim but then you told us your reasons not to. You are an amazing and brave woman, i think i am attached to you forever through your humility andcaptivating videos.
Personally, I find the whole border crossing thing really interesting, so thanks for uploading this video.
That border post has always been chaotic and super busy. I have lost count of the number of times I've been through there. At least you didn't seem to have any hassles. Looks like you are one more visitor to Zim who will have a great memories of the jewel of Africa. God Bless.
No wonder the UK has a HGV driver shortage. They are queueing for days waiting to enter Zimbabwe.
How bad is the situation up there?
😂 I see what you did right there . I think there was an invite for the Brits to come back to Zim .
😀
@@lekholokoelekotsoanamoloi9593 imagine if this was true😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
It's A HONDA and it keeps on going Pap Pap Pap Pap Pap, absolutely awesome. SAVANNA just keeps on rocking our world in your most capable hands. Welcome back to South Africa and we are holding our breath as to what your next steps are going to be!
It's still showing life on the road. Border crossings are exciting/frustrating places. Interesting to see the road building in Zim.
The world is your oyster! Thank you for always showing the beauty of yourself and of the local people. The 🛻 waiting was unbelievable! Stay safe, always Noraly.
Well Cyril, you can see the beautiful Noraly whenever you want, right here on this channel.
Ja, welkom terug in Suid Afrika!😘
Ok Noraly, i admit it. I started dancing in my living room to that song. Coffee, microwave pizza and then a ride. You got me moving......
Such an amazing adventure...pursued by a traveler with an amazing smile and laugh.
Truly a gem!!
Thanks for coming to Zimbabwe you are so great
Noraly I love the way you relate to all the boarder guard's. You have such a easy going way of bantering back and forth with them. I was so excited to hear what your new plans are but you are such a big tease you are going to make us wait for the next video to find out. LOL😁
She speaks to people she never meet, like she meet an old good friend.
Of course… then we come back in the next video with 10 more people. That had been super fun. 10 mill viewed on the video. Because then Noraly would be happy like little school girl, first day at school.
@@Gismo3333 Yes, and I've also noticed that the Africans, they are always friendly and treat you like a friend, even when you're a complete stranger, and a foreigner. I never see that type of friendliness when traveling to other states here in the U.S. Everyone is stuck up and scared of strangers.
@@trevorjameson3213 Try go to the south. Maybe Mississippi… Down there they are really friendly, I have heard. But never been there my self, not even been to America. I would like to go to South America. Looked so nice down there, in the video's with Noraly & Dhanno. But it is so stupid expensive to send a bike. And its not the same renting a bike. Like to have my own bike.
@@Gismo3333 @Trevor Jameson In Africa they normally look for bribes. The Zimbabwean border posts are legendary for demanding money or you sit there forever. Then there are many roadblocks where more bribes are demanded. There was a video on the Internet where a black guy was pulled over at an army roadblock. He was wearing a camouflage T shirt and was shot in the head and left on the side of the road.
@@JackSmith-ou1dg u must be a South African.
Great music on this video Noraly!! I really liked it. You've got to be the friendliest person to go through those border crossings. They all want to hug you or go with you!! LOL
Zimbabwe is South Africa's biggest trading partner on the continent, as long as you have a SA or Zim registration plate they'll let you through. Also some of the trucks are transiting to Zambia and Malawi, very hectic border control. The ISIS insurgency is at the northern most province of Mozambique, very far from the Zim border. Travel safe
That is not correct. Zimbabwe is not South Africa's largest trading partner in Africa neither is it the second largest. South Africa's largest trading partners in Africa are Botswana, Mozambique & Namibia in that order.
Trading partner and dumping grounds are different things altogether. Zimbabwe is the biggest trading partner of SA the rest are consumers of SAn products.
Восхищаюсь тобой! Во время пандемии ты прямо как отдушина, смотрю с удовольствием все видео, особенно в Зимбабве, жаль что ты там была недолго. Я, возможно, скоро туда приеду, по геологическим делам.
If you thought you are patient enough,imagine the last truck guy on the queue
Southern Rhodesia 50 years ago and Zimbabwe today are two very different countries.. However the beauty of the country is still amazing and the people very friendly. Welcome back to South Africa. I trust you will continue to enjoy our dirt tracks and spectacular mountain passes. We love your channel.
Hello Noraly, what an amazing journey we all took with you, from the zebras to the elephants to the lions and specially the beautiful lands. We all thank you.

Thanks for another great video. When you were leaving Zimbabwe, I suddenly realised that I have a much more positive image of the place than when you first entered Zimbabwe.
I agree😃
Well-said!
Wow, bietbridge has changed so much growing up as child there from early 80s to 90s we crossed that river every day on the old bridge to the left as you went over to go to school in messina such fond memories of an amazing childhood 😢😊
I have been watching your videos since your landing into South Africa. From the time you purchased the Honda until now. I have kept you in my prayers and super happy to hear of your safe return.
I prayed that you would not enter into Mozambique. Safety was the biggest issue.
You have managed to capture hearts all over the world and I applaud your drive and determination. Welcome back to SA. May you have a pleasant stay and we look forward to your next adventure.
Best wishes
Appears to have been a very long and tedious border crossing! The border officials all seem to be so nice and congenial. Wow, the number of trucks leaving South Africa was unreal! Thanks for this overview of your day. Ride safe Noraly!
Welcome back to SA❣️, actually the best (most free) country to be in in the world right now 🇿🇦 Your excitement about your plans here is infectious... In fact your whole positive outlook on life is so inspiring 👏🏽💯💖Like your other followers (bikers /travellers /adventurers /nature lovers even couch potatoes) will agree : we will follow you wherever you may go... Your example of treating the peoples of the world with love and respect and your happy-go-lucky attitude gives hope in our hearts and smiles on our faces😊As brave as Joan of Ark, but as gentle as Snow White...

The Zimbabwe economy has collapsed, they can't produce anything except the weed known as tobacco which they sell once a year at an auction, and a few truckloads of assorted metals like gold and platinum. Everything else is imported.
Omg what a tight squeeze
You're indeed a great rider
Big up
Watching from Sydney Australia
I worked in the Sudan in the early 80's for over 2 1/2 years and have fond memories of my African travels including Zimbabwe (Rhodesia back then) Egypt, a short stay in Nigeria and beautiful Kenya, and your travels sparked memories of places I've been. I need to watch all of your series which I will try to do. Thanks for sharing and you have my respect for doing it alone so I wish you safe travels for the rest of your trip.
I must say as a South African you handled that really well!
Everyone you meet wants to go with you. It speaks volumes about your adventure.
Noraly, you are the perfect traveler, respecting the customs and traditions of the people and countries you visit. And a healthy sense of humor as well. Happy trails ! Cant wait for your next adventure.
Noraly. I have been following your channel since season one and your adventures with Basanti. You have one of the best channels on RUclips and I eagerly await every new episode. I'm looking forward to whatever surprise awaits now that you are back in South Africa. So glad you got through and didn't have to detour to the other border crossing. Savannah really has done you proud. Keep the wheels turning!
as a zimbabwean i am proud of this
While the scenery and off road adventures were absent, the experience of watching you undergoing exit and entrance of the two countries was very interesting and quite informative !
Noraly, glad you made it back into South Africa without using the alternate route. However, every truck in South Africa is at that border waiting for cleance. Am I glad that I'm not driving truck trying to cross that border. It must take days to get through.
22:17 "Love you long time" hahahaha. It is interesting to see how border crossings go. Thank you.
Those border crossings were unbelievable! MILES of big trucks, just parked. Confusing set of steps that I just don't see how you figured out the pathway through. But...you made it...again. Nice riding between those two big trucks on the bridge, by the way! Safe travels!!!
Welcome back in South Africa. I have been following your journey through our neighbouring countries closely since I have travelled your kind of route several times and your account brought back precious memories. Stay safe and take time out to enjoy some of the pleasures my country has to offer on your second entry. You may not be aware of this, but your widely viewed vlog will probably inspire some of your many subscribers/viewers to visit this beautiful part of the world, promoting tourism and help to fight poverty with newly created jobs 👋
Could just one of you " thumbs down people" explain what bothers you. Noralys youtube channel is one of the best. I don't understand??
I loved this for many reasons, but your charming conversations with various border officials would be top of my list:) I was smiling the whole way through. Thank you, Noraly!
Our border guys will treat you like that if you are white, try going there as black local and u will experience their true colours
Love the way you interact with people patiently answering their questions. Most importantly you still managed to maintain the suspense of why you returned to South Africa. Looking forward to more excitement.
You had me swaying from side to side while you navigated your way through the narrow space between the trucks - even making ooh aah oemph sounds as it was a tight squeeze - I felt I was riding with you - that is how up close and personal we all get on your travels with you. Can't wait till Wednesday - the BIG REVEAL!!!! Welcome back to sunny South Africa!!!! :)
Welcome back to South Africa! We have loved watching your journey so far!
Quote of the tour "love you long time" 😀😀brilliant. Keep up the good work.
Great vid. That's the way to cross borders : be nice, friendly and joke with people. BTW: nice choice of music: give our dreams their wings to fly - Tim mcmorris. Take care.
A lot of amorous border guards en route, no shortage of proposals for a suitable partner. The Honda seems to have found a new gear crossing the border. Looking well after all the expeditions and God speed for the road ahead !!
As you crossed the bridge you said: ‚oh look the river, it’s amazing‘. My thoughts: ‚terrible, this never ending line of trucks‘. Your optimism, your positive sight on live, is why I love to see your videos. 👌
I’m seeing this 2 years later and welcome to Zimbabwe and Southern Africa. Roads are far better than where you were in central and west Africa.
Hi, Noraly thank for show me back in Victory fall , giving me feel back old me old time in Zimbabwe ...
WOW. Noraly, you had a dream of a run through Beightbridge. I've done that 5 times now. The worst took me 24 hours, I foolishly picked a Sunday when all the workers were returning back to Sth Africa to work, not a good time. Seeing the Limpopo River brought back some great memories too. Thanks for sharing, just loving your adventures. Blessings from Banbasa, Northern India.
Respect Noraly for your patience I would have gone mad😂 big thumbs up as always drive save 👍👍🇳🇱
Thank you for awesome videos. Never disappointing.
Great song choice. Really enjoyed the song by Tim McMorris. Certainly fit the occasion and reflected the mood of arriving back in South Africa. As always enjoyed the video and ride safe
Thanks god made her travel safe ❤️🙏
