Wow, Iraq was an adventure! Filled with the incredible kindness of Iraqis that Noraly met: - Iraq border guards who gave her chai, water and food. - The legendary Mohammed. Wow, he was such a gem. - The man who fixed Frankie’s lights with a smile and refused any payment. - Mohammed’s mother who welcomed Noraly to her house. - The smiling people in Jassan. - The policemen giving her a thumbs up. - The men sharing their food with her. - Smiling children in an old town where Mohammed took her to. - A man out of nowhere just nicely showing her a historical building in Baghdad. - Aya who nicely showed her around Baghdad. - People in cars honking, waving and smiling at her. - The men who helped her fix her flat tire and even gave her bottles of water. - The guard who let her in Saddam Hussein’s palace and gave her a tour even when it was closed to the public. - The nice petrol station people who helped her fill up Frankie. - The legendary Abu Haidar. …and many more. Goodbye Iraq. What a real adventure. Real people. Raw and unfiltered experiences. What a heartwarming adventure. Thank you, Noraly for showing us the beauty of Iraq. Much love from Pacific Asia.

I am a retired Harley Davidson & Victory motorcycle (Polaris Street bike brand) technician. The technicians did a magnificent job. Their work space was as clean as a hospital. They worked as a team to make your experience with their dealership and pleasure and as pleasant as possible. Again, at no cost to you.

With every mile, a tale she weaves, Of open roads and hearts she frees. A force of nature, strong and true, She teaches love in all she views.

The music when Frankie got x-rayed 😂😂😂 hilarious, and when you were waiting for the result. That was so funny. Had to watch it twice... Greetings from Germany 🤙🏼🌈

I'm happy you finally had the main wiring harness replaced! And the rest of the work done by that shop was also A-1,

That scanner at the border was cool! Also appreciate the Star Wars music 😂

I bet the guys At Tristar enjoyed working on something a bit different with old school tech. Very generous to refuse payment for their service, materials and time, and it's something out of the ordinary, that they'll remember. Great result!
