It is evident from Noraly’s commentary that she does a lot of background research on the places she visits. This makes her presentations far more informative and superior than many a blogger out there. The little tidbits of information on cultural practices and beliefs couched in a respectful tone elevate the entire narrative making it even more engaging. Noraly can consider herself an educator, and for that we are grateful.

[@christinegreen7120]

I've been in the mining game all my working life of >40years. I'm no tree hugger but I have to admit seeing the countryside in Ghana spoiled by unregulated mining activity is very sad. And I am surprised to learn that Ghana produces more gold than South Africa. Another great video - many thanks for your efforts.

[@KingofgraceSARA]

Ghana was named the Gold Coast!

[@janvollgod7221]

like everywhere in Africa, you have Diamonds, Gold, rare earths, Cobalt and many other precious mineral resources. Still the people are unbelievably poor and live in horrible condition, without electricity, fresh and clean water, medical support. And now the people from the west countries come to Africa and point fingers on those who use mercury to wash out the gold. Interesting that those complaints come out of countries which blatantly rob the people of Africa of their resources. Who's licenses are this? Who has the rights to dig gold and diamonds, who's mines are these? Why is the village, which exports several millions worth of diamonds in one year, still have no electricity? Africa must unite, there are so much wrong, so many things must be fixed and first those colonial Thiefs must be expelled from the country. The French were first, others must follow. All the goods that mother Africa has to offer, must be first for the fantastic people of Africa. The Profit must stay in the country.

[@Bgdutch77]

Al the ponds had a weird collor indeed. Not to speak about Colombia and their toxic used to produce cocaïne, the whole world…..

[@kevinsyd2012]

Mercury itself is not a problem, but mercury vapor is. The miners mix the gold ore with mercury to form an alloy and this is then heated to burn off the mercury to leave pure gold. It is this burning-off process that releases toxic mercury vapour. In fact Milliners (hat makers) used mercury to soften animal skin pelts, and they were slowly poisoned by the neurological toxicity of mercury. Hence the expression 'as mad as a hatter' and the Mad Hatter of Alice in Wonderland fame.

[@devonshire56]

The night jungle sounds you mentioned at the opening of this video & gave us a small sample of combined with the peaceful canoe ride at the end was a very beautiful capture of what you’re experiencing. The challenge of extracting resources from the land in a non destructive way is a global issue. You’ve shown us that through your North American rides as well as your African rides. Thanks for another great video. Looking forward to your next post.

On a motorcycle tour In Zimbabwe the first night we stayed in a primitive lodge on a bluff above a village. The first time I heard a hyrax screech was near dawn, I thought a leopard had snatched a baby from the village. I looked down into the village, no one seemed concerned. It’s amazing that such a chilling and loud sound came from such a small animal.

Absolutely agreed 💯% ‼️ 🫶👏👍👏👍👍

[@LeafBurrower]

I'm a former documentary film editor/producer, worked in the industry for 25 yrs. I'm astonished at Noraly's all-round ability--camera, editing, sound, but above all simple and persuasive story telling--all self-taught. I can't begin to explain to everyone how she has a really commanding grip of all these skills, and I imagine she doesn't even really know it. Of course all her subscribers are already aware of it because they enjoy it week in and week out. The audio quality and balance (so often not understood by KZbin warriors) is spot on, and her facility with film language, narrative, etc. The only thing I find a bit tiresome sometimes is the music (sorry folks, I've given a lot of notes on these things) but inevitably she has a relatively limited library available to her because she's permanently on the move. If she ever runs out of road she can definitely turn this into a solid career as a filmmaker, though I know she's a one-woman army and she might get frustrated by the all the management required for even a small crew--but overall I think she'd enjoy the endless education of working with top-level professionals. There must be commissioning editors at the European public networks who'd love to work with you, Noraly, surely there must be producers who are already aware of your work. I'm telling you, you're a cut above, girl.

From my perspective I am watching one world is meeting, interacting with other, that is one woman who is travelling the world on her motorbike and other woman is collecting woods for home in a countryside if Ghana. I think this is beautiful and this real. Thank you Noraly.🙏🙏🙏

[@lombertomonsivais3327]

Noraly, no te detiene nada, eres una persona con una determinacion de hierro y pese a las complicaciones que te enfrentas en tu viaje siempre le sacas el lado positivo y los enfrentas con una sonrisa. Fue algo gracioso cuando la persona en la motoneta te dijo que era un largo camino para ir al lago, si supiera que has viajado decenas de miles de kilometros, sabria que eso para ti no es nada, pero todo es en funcion de la perspectiva de cada quien. Un abrazo.

Noraly gives an excellent perspective on her tours. Love tuning in to watch her episodes and learn something new. Good for you

I started watching your videos when you started to go through Colombia, I thought you were so brave given the route you chose to go in my country. I had never been to Mocoa, where you first went once you crossed the border from Ecuador. But now seeing you go through Liberia. I am amazed with the way you handle yourself in cultures in which women are considered second-class citizens. You deserve my total respect and admiration. I am since you passed through Colombia your loyal follower

The land of minerals and natural resources but we the people don't know what the leaders are doing with the money. Thanks for your voice and video 📸, for giving the chance to the world 🌎 to see that is going on. Blessed up for teaching on the water problems and land. May the Lord almighty bless you and strengthen you to bring more.., LONG LEAVE GHANA MY COUNTRY.....

I’m so stoked for a new video from you. Such an interesting part of the world.

[@reneprovencher8395]

Oh my goodness Noraly . I am loving being in your History and archeological class every week. Some politicians want to just be about them, I love the way you handle yourself around strangers. In two minutes they are not strangers anymore. I had professors like you teach me about life. Ahhhhh, you have revived my want to learn more about Africa! ❤❤

Another peaceful place to spend the night... Like its a big bonus after each day's ride.... Enjoy the peace and quiet every chance you get...

I used to live near Kumasi...We are expats, my husband worked for Newmont, we lived at MKV. So lovely to see our Ghanaian home on your travels.

[@joannszuhay450]

Interesting history regarding gold mining in Ghana. I have to say, I was very concerned about those muddy roads,Noraly! Thank goodness you didn’t get stuck! Thank you for sharing the beautiful jungles and the lake!❤️🙏🇺🇸

[@lucindavillarreal2676]

Yes, now I get nervous when it starts raining and she’s still on that muddy track!

[@mikaellofgren7]

Canoe adventures with Noraly you never stop suprising us. Also the facts and history you tell us is fascinating. You are awesome!!

[@theghost-q8o]

I d'ont know how we cant still hold our leaders accountable at this point. all the best for ghana all the way from kenya. safe travels Noraly

[@elliotvulley415]

Do you mean to tell me there's no dirt road in the developed world.

[@jonmona476]

With the kind of issues facing Ghana and Kenya these countries will achieve SDGs in 2165.

[@theghost-q8o]

@@elliotvulley415 i wasnt focused on dirt road but on the amount of resources in africa and the locals seem to benefit so little from that

[@elliotvulley415]

@@theghost-q8o Yes much as I agree with you on call for accountability, the citizenry are also not helping themselves. Instead of being disabled by the paucity of development, that should rather make us use our God given strength of the mind to untangle ourselves from such depravity.

[@jcrawford068]

Very inspiring. Love all the shots, commentary, information, video, drone footage. The complete package. So Iglad I found you. And I love my new Itchy Boots tee shirt!

[@DavidPatersonPortraits]

Thank you Itchyboots. Another interesting look at our fragile world.

[@zari114]

The devastation that mining produces is jaw-dropping. Thank you, Noraly, for bringing us with you in your amazing journey.

[@keyem4504]
