Ahmed’s personality and genuine character is the kind of encounter with other human beings that always has me smiling from the inside out. Being paid for the incredible job he did as a guide does not take away from his sparkling and clear-eyed humanness for all who he meets. Noraly, my core muscles were sore just watching you guide Alaska repeatedly through the sand dunes. The places you go and show us are the places I would most love to see when traveling. I am often left with something to think about by the end of each of your videos. Today it was the unrelenting nature of sand which can swallow up so much as it travels across the shifting landscape. The rhythm of desert sand is something I have never experienced but you have given me a glimpse of its nature. Just gorgeous… and a tiny bit terrifying. Thank you!

As with so many other following you, I stumbled onto Itchy Boots by accident. I'm enthralled by it, and this trip to Mauritania is especially captivating because our daughter served in the Peace Corps (Moudjeria--sort of near Tidjikja and eight hours from Nouakchott by "bush" taxi) for two years. We visited for a couple weeks--getting the full experience of a road disappearing completely in a sandstorm. We also ended up with the dog our daughter adopted while there. You're one fantastic human being Noraly. Thank you! it's time to get back to the video...

I hope some will notice but just in case, I would like to draw attention to something. At timestamp 14:06 "And here comes, suddenly, a green valley. Wow! It's amazing." A few moments later at 14:14 is the reason why that valley is green and everywhere else is shifting sand, filling up river bottoms, causing the river to flow over and destroy a new paved road. Pause the vid at 14:14. You see the road, and parallel to that you see a row of rocks, then a strip of sand, then a strip of green. That is the first grass I have seen in any of Noraly's vids of Mauritania. Why is grass only in this valley? I normally watch videos at low resolution so it doesnt use so much data but when something is interesting I turn it to higher resolution to see details better, and I use a pc with about 14 in screen so if you are watching on a smaller device you may not be able to see it but the division between green grass and bare sand is a barbed wire fence. That whole region, from Mali to Kenya to Cairo to Fez used to be grasslands, capable of producing vast quantities of wheat and cattle creating several of the richest nations ever to exist and now it really isnt livable at all, but there are still enough trying to by the same means that made a desert out of it in the first place that it cannot recover. The problem is, if you strip ALL the grass off, the sand starts blowing around and it's all downhill from there. You have to move your herd long before the grass is so sparse it cannot reseed for next year. Somebody put up a fence, they keep it in good repair and challenge anyone who comes along with a herd, nope you are not grazing this spot bare, there is the fence row! The one who put up the fence, pays attention to how much grazing that pasture can tolerate and moves the herd off when it is time, is relatively rich, the one outside the fence is about as poor as a person can get. Half a continent can be recovered if everybody did like the guy who put up a fence. You dont need the fence though, just move your herd when it is time. And when you do have a herd on a pasture, defend a patch to not let them eat it at all, it will make seeds that will scatter all around that small preserved spot. Wont do any good though if your cousin comes along with his herd 3 days later and strips it bare anyway. One of the oldest causes for war among humans. One of the most valuable aspects of law ever invented was defined property lines to prevent a small fraction of humans from wiping out life sustainance for everyone around them from ignorance, stupidity and/or greed. Ignorance can be cured with a good story, a book, or by example. Stupidity is not so easy to overcome, it requires leadership and sometimes firm admonishment. Greed is the worst especially when combined with laziness and apathy. I hope you take notice, have an epiphany of the root cause of so much poverty and suffering in this world, and spread the word that much of it is because of eating the last seed and having nothing from there on.

@@oklahomahank2378 Yep, pretty simple to see if you have ever been around domestic herds. and going by your screen name I'm gonna assume you are in, or at least from, Oklahoma. A place that learned the lesson the hard way about stripping a place bare that by reason of it's seasons, especially the rainy ones and the not rainy ones, is particularly liable to desertification. That is why it was savannah grasslands in the first place. When left to nature the herds of Bison played a role in fertilizing and mowing those grasslands to keep them dynamic. Wolves, Coyote, Puma and other predators like human populations who payed attention to the other life around them kept the herds moving so they didnt create completely bare regions, and removed the sick ones and it all found balance. Other people came along that were some combination of stupid, ignorant or greedy and created a desert by not paying attention. They DID learn the lesson. Hundreds of thousands of farm ponds slow down and capture the otherwise flooding rains when they finally did come, keeping it around longer to increase the variety and numbers of plants that can make it long enough to produce seeds, and eventually keep enough groundwater around so bigger, shade baring, soil holding, water respirating trees can survive until the next rainy season. Contouring and terraces, combined with protected green belts that were off limits to farming and grazing. All of this stuff is well documented and proven to work. But how do you convince people they and their kids will be better off if they do it? And even if you win them over by reason and example, how do you get them to do it? Just imagine, if you could snap your fingers and all that manmade desert was back to balance, how much higher the income would be for those that live there....

@@laserflexr6321 Yes, we learned that the hard way. Partly people were deceived by a short term rainy weather pattern, and of course industrial farming and land hunger played a role. Are you familiar with the book “The Tragedy of the Commons”? When no one has an incentive to protect the land everyone thinks short term and ruins it. As the land here became barren the temperature rose. The hottest years in our history are still 1915-1938.

I just took a double dose of my blood pressure medication after watching this episode. Lol. Respect to you and the locals who have to ride this every day to survive. Makes you wonder if the country is broke or corrupt and why they can’t fix the roads on at least the most travelled routes. Love from Canada 🇨🇦.

Hi Noraly, what a nice scenic ride today, the green oasis in the middle of the desert and the drone footage was awesome, thought for a minute there that you might take a swim, lol. Some really thick sand there, a special thanks to Ahmed for being your guide. We will see you in the next episode. Keep safe out there and God Bless you. 👍🇿🇦🏍💪💯🙏🙏

Who knew there would be more dunes along the way. Another example of how powerless humans are against nature! Waiting to see what the next episode will bring! 😀

What a video! Nature is beautiful but it’s also unpredictable. It needs to be respected. Noraly knows this but I would tell nature that Noraly is unpredictable too and when you think she will not find her way around nature’s obstacles boom, she does. She needs to be respected too! All my respect lady.

The moving sand over the road demonstrates how places have disappeared in African desert and still do! I saw at least one other gentlemen who had Ahmeds flowing blue robe style but as you got out of the village it seems jeans and work trousers were the norm. The landscape is stunning and you can enjoy it as long as you have enough fuel and water!. A nother great video Noraly- Thankyou Senegal here she comes!😅

At the oasis in the beginning of the video - I saw, from the drone view, all the little canals to water the plots. I learned what they are from your tour of the garden village in Morocco. That river bed filled with sand - wow! And, if water ever decided to return, that sand would end up somewhere else much faster than it settled there. 😀 Oh, my - navigating a paved road full of sand is as tricky as finding snow and ice on the road! And, sure enough - sand plows clearing the road. Off-roading on tarmac!
