I remember watching Itchy videos travelling through Iraq and how excited she was about the kindness and generosity of the Iraqi people where ever she went. Very much the opposite of the bad publicity in the international press.

The bad spreads faster than the good. But I think the truth will always prevail, when witnessed with one's own eyes, rather than letting others tell us what to think.

Being an Iraqi in the land of Mesopotamia, the Tigris and the Euphrates, I say to you and your dear friends, Welcome, my dear, in your country. Iraq is a country with the oldest civilization in history.

8:24 I am a Dutch citizen and recently visited Basra via Kuwait (Abdali- Safwan) during the month of Ramadan and left Basra 4 days ago. In fact, I found ease and a great welcome at the Iraqi border more than the Kuwaiti one. Their dealings were very friendly and I didn't face any difficulty. I got the visa in less than 10 minutes and it cost me $75 . I visited many places in Basra and enjoyed my trip and the delicious Iraqi food. I will definitely visit Iraq again soon.

Usually, whoever visits Kuwait from the northern border with Iraq is not welcome to most Kuwaitis views because of the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait and the terrorist organizations in Iraq.

Hello from Canada 🇨🇦 it's nice to see an other side of Iraq besides the one the media are telling us. Friendly and Inviting.

Being English and seeing how nice and friendly people in Iraq and Afghanistan are makes me so ashamed what our governments did. We as people all have so much in common yet the governments of the world want to tell us otherwise and send people to kill each other. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇮🇶.

I know that it was hard for you to be in Iraq because of the language barrier, amongst other things. Otherwise, Iraqis are Very Hospitable and kind . They also welcome everyone.

Welcome to Iraq 🇮🇶 ❤

Amazing video.. you welcome in iraq 🇮🇶 😊

As a Kuwaiti that was fun am thinking to do the same trip with my bike someday soon.

In minute: 12:45 the gentleman asked the owner of the tent to hospital you in their camp to treat you as their daughter and he said "we want the world to see the real Iraq, not what the media presents. We want every tourist to come to Iraq and see the good side that the media doesn't show. Such a gentleman, I'm proud of him.

Our roads are pretty rough and are in bad condition so drive safe and have a nice trip!

Seeing people like you and Abrar makes me want to have an overland experience too. keep it up, and ride safe:)

Many years ago in the 80 s my wife parents travelled all over the Middle East in a VW camper they went to Iraq and had problems with a credit card or some such problem I can’t remember now , but they were stranded for a week unable to continue way out in Iraq ,,when the people in the nearest village found out they were having difficulties , they wouldn’t hear about them staying out in the heat , they were welcomed into a house of a family and treated like long lost friends , when my father in law was very old he always talked about the people and how welcoming and open they were , and was very upset when the war started ,,,

I traveld from Basra all the way to the Erbil and had a great time best people great food and cheap, going back this may .

Amazing video alex. Keep it coming

Alex you are amazing! Thank you for filming this and enlightening me to the reality of Iraq. I feel I should be motivated to take on anything after watching that ❤

I’ve just found your channel and I’m already enjoying the interaction between the people and yourself. I hope this tend continues as I catch up on previous episodes and follow your travels into the future. Thank you and good luck, stay safe.

I was hooked on your blog immediately. Love your painted DR. (I also ride a DR) I like your format, your stills as if shooting an SLR, love your quick little footnote pings of people you meet, and your easy commentary. No jiggly camera, easy music clips, VERY Refreshing format! Ride safe lady. I hope you have a great journey. I’m green with envy:)

It's such an amazing vlog.. Great work. Keep it up.

I love your video so much, so inspirational

Geat documentation of travels and a glimpse into everyday Iraqi life. Safe travels!

Brave, certainly not stupid. What a fabulous video you made too. Arabic hospitality is real. It can be a bit overwhelming and it's time consuming, but it also it's life affirming and provides great memories.

Most definitely enjoying your finely crafted videos, Alex!

That was awesome. Thanks for sharing!

Well done without fake drama Real stuff I love your confidence and look forward to more

Love your bike! So happy.

Beautiful video.

I love this! This is my first time visiting your channel, and I think it is sooooo cool to see a Lady on a bike! When I am tooling around on my BMW R1150RS, and I see a Lady on her bike, I always make sure I compliment her, and tell her how awesome it is to see a lady on a bike! One thing I've learned as I've traveled the world is this: everywhere, people are just people, and if you are good to them, and treat them with love, you'll receive the same in return, almost always, except for the odd day you might encounter someone having, but that ain't about me, and I don't pretend it is by taking anything personal....so, things usually work out beautifully. Truly. Bless you on your journey, dear Lady! God bless!! Much love from Oregon. : )

Just found this video on my feed. 1st one! I watch Itchy Boots Noraly. Read some of your blog! Brave and adventurous women. I had wanted to ride my motorcycle across just the US camping when I was 16…. Never did. Life and 3 kids got in the way. Now I’m 63 and I’m living vicariously thru Noraly and now you! I’m half Filipino! Mabuhay!
