I was in a community college back in 1989, and in my history class was a boy from Sierra Leone. His whole village had pooled money to send him to our little college so he could get a degree in teaching to come back and be a teacher in his own village. He was living with a pastor of a local Seventh Day Adventist church, and he and I got put together for a project. I learned so much! Sadly he didn't get to finish his 4 year degree, his parents passed away and he had to go back home to care for his siblings. I often wondered what became of him.

1000 carat diamond and the country is famous for the corruption and poverty. Corruption is the true Cancer of the world.

Blood diamonds was made famous by a Leonardo DiCaprio movie. The reality of corruption goes far beyond humanity where only a few stand at the top. Sierra Leone have two types of population. The ones that have, and the ones that they don’t have. Thank you Noraly for sharing this brave video.

Everything about Noraly’s West Africa adventures has been epic. Such an overlooked region of the world but brimming with amazing sights and sounds, people to meet, animals to see, and stories to tell both good and not so good. So exciting to watch Noraly navigate the complexities of life on the road and to see how she brings these stories to life. What a treat for us viewers to get to experience!

I finally figured out what makes your channel so much better than others. You make your videos about where you are and what goes on with the people there, and not yourself. That and your editing and direction is top notch. Keep up the good work.

Back in the day, all of the rich people all over the world, had a little 5 to 11 year olds shucking their oysters for them, they were sent. This picture of the little children of Irish heritage no doubt? Definitely looked like it! We’re standing in the freezing cold water in boots of leather all tore up in mud. Their little fingers/hands disfigured from oyster knives. The exceptionally wealthy have done this forever.

The sad truth is that it´s often the western world that has fuel these tragic events..... One man's loss is another man's gain.... What (mostly) the western world has done to Africa is beyond sad. Slaves, diamonds etc..... But things are going in a better direction now. Africa has started to negotiate lots of stuff when it comes to trading etc as a whole continent now instead of as separate small countries. They have realised that Africa must save Africa. The western world that has ripped them of freedom, money, minerals etc for hundreds of years won´t never help Africa. They rather trade with China and other countries that actually help them and pay for stuff. So hopefully things will be better from rather recently.....

I still remember the sound of the gun shots and God saved my life at one point where was running for my life an RPG rocket was aimed at my escape root where I flew up almost two meters from the ground by the impact of the explosion and fell down to the ground, thanks to God the wall barrier was between me and the rocket grenade it was a nightmare.

I am happy without them. But THANK YOU Noraly for this beautiful, heart-touching episode. Keep safe

That was a very interesting ride and the drone footage was amazing. Thanks for taking us along again and helping us all learn some interesting history and current details. Keep up the awesome adventure 🇨🇦

Super Lucky (Tree) and Super Happy (Food) all in one video. Awesome! I was blown away by this video. Left me with tears of joy in my eyes. The educational content is so much appreciated. Noraly you just have a special way with teaching that makes me hang on every word. Many things that interest you and that you comment on along your way is same as I would do. Like stopping, listening to jungle sounds and commenting how amazing it is. So glad to see Alaska is still going. I recently picked up my 23 300 Rally. Such an impressive machine in every way. Because of you, I had high expectations and everyone of those has been met and exceeded. Same with Revit apparel. Its awesome. You literally are changing my life in so many ways. Peace ❤❤❤

Congrats on your new bike! I understand the connection to Itchy Boots like most viewers on this channel. I’m not a biker..my connection is with nature and mountains and excellent cinematography!! Not to mention that Noraly has the personality to present it well!! So impressed in every way!!

Good evening from Malaysia! Very sad knowing about the war. Thanks for history though. Stay safe, stay healthy.

Fascinating history with regard to the blood diamond trade and all the atrocities involved during that turbulent period. I hope you are not hindered by the ever looming rain. Those tracks look like they could become impassable should there be a heavy downpour! Stay safe and ride safe!🤗

It always amazes me that you just breeze thorough what many of us would consider very sketchy territory. I’m also amazed by your ability to find decent accommodations every day. Wishing you well on your travels!

This lady has balls of steel...hats of to you Noraly...thanks for amazing ride

That is once more an amazing episode, enjoyed it from the first second to the last ! Noraly is really doing an amazing work, she is definitively an amazing creator ! cannot wait to see the nigerian episodes, and really hope we could meet !

Worth staying up until midnight to see your adventures. Qudos for giving us some fascinating history, including the tragedies.

🙏🏻thank you for the good work you do Nora ❤ shining a light not just great videos🙏🏻🙏🏻

Great to see the journey continuing on. What an eye opening and educational vlog. I really appreciate all the time, effort and the miles you travel.
