Ever since i was a kid i have always wanted to find Iram. I always played Uncharted 3 when i was a kid where the main character finds Iram. After I played it, I realized I wanted to discover Iram and I actually fund some good details about its location in the Rub' al Khali. I am still destined to find it and maybe even Shambhala. It is a big dream but i have fascinated to do so for 12 years since I was 12.
I really enjoy watching ❤

Ah yes, the things we learn watching your videos. I thought frankincense was the aroma emitted by Shelley’s monster. 🤷♂️ It was also interesting to visit the site of the world’s first Wubar driver. History is so underrated. 🤭 Respect the culture. Take only pictures. Leave only footprints. Actionable words of advice I always travel with. What an amazing journey. Next episode promises to be epic beyond words. Thanks for sharing.

If you don’t find it interesting just don’t watch it 🤷🏻♀️ Why post it: because it is part of the journey (believe it or not, the most asked questions that I had in last weeks comments where exactly about these by “boring” details like bike rental), because the history is super interesting, because I as well want to talk about great places to visit and not only show some off-road riding. You should know meanwhile that this channel is not for people who only wants to see motorcycle riding. If not: feel free to unsubscribe and don’t watch my videos in the future.

I will definitely come to meet you once in my whole life

I was working seven days a week while I was there but we did get the odd beach run now and again. Your video makes it look a quite amazing place!

Your videos are terrific but I always seem to want more. On many adventures I wish for more detailed shots of the buildings you talk about. For instance I wish you gotten closer to the Ubar site and let us see more details and tell us more. I would watch 1/2 hour to hour. I really want more in just about every video.

I wish I had more videos of ubar too, but as said in the video it was closed both times that we came by and this is all the shots I could get unfortunately. Please remember that I am not a big production company who can plan things like this beforehand but a one woman show who is not only filming but as well riding herself - it’s just not possible to get more footage in many situations. (I actually already considered going in a car as that would make it so much easier for the content creation than being on a bike)
