Call me goofy but I wish I could have been there to experience it. Really appreciate the little details she provides like fuel management, how the rear tank works, the capacity of the fuel bag, the type of food she brought, water supply, etc. The drone footage is absolutely AWE-INSPIRING. In its own way, the area is as amazing to see as the Andes. Also appreciated her detailed update at beginning on the area conditions and hazards. Thank you so much Noraly. Peace ❤❤

    me too, I'm also Moroccan and I would love to ride through the desert in the south of morocco, but I would not dare to cross the desert alone. So many thing that could wrong you run out of fuel, you get stuck in sand, or your motorcycle breaks, anything bad happens and if there is no phone network in the area, that's a death sentence, just a matter of days until you run out of water.

    Hi Noraly, A mirage is an optical effect that is sometimes seen at sea, in the desert, or over a hot pavement, that may have the appearance of a pool of water or a mirror in which distant objects are seen inverted, and that is caused by the bending or reflection of rays of light by a layer of heated air of varying density. A very common occurrence in the desert :) .

Her parents have to be proud to see their daughter doing more in life than 99% of most people never see their own country. Thanks for taking us along on your journeys And a BIG shout out to her parents for raising such a good human being. Because she has a big impact on the world 🌎 when interacting with others.
