Northern Ethiopia on a Motorcycle - EP. 54

The moment I crossed the Ethiopian border I realized what a completely different world I'd just entered. This video is from the Northern part of the country which has insanely beautiful mountains. Gondar was the first city I visited and finally I had the opportunity to hang out with some travelers and have my first cold beer in ages!

In April 2017 I left Australia for a solo trip around the world on a BMW F800GS. I named it “Are We There Yet” because I don't know my final destination or the duration of this journey.
Throughout my journey, I was raising money for a young disabled child in Poland named Franek. Franek was diagnosed with cerebral palsy (weakness of the entire right side of the body) and he will require constant rehabilitation for the rest of his life. All the money raised will go directly to helping Franek and his family so he can lead a normal life as best as possible, so please donate generously: gogetfunding.c...

The kids you gave candy too often said Ameseginalehu which means thank you in Amharic, one of the local languages in Ethiopia. The militia at the check point around the end of the video was asking for ID, not for money, he said she is a foreigner, let her go. He was actually being nice to you. Why did you assume he was asking for money when you were not sure that is what he was saying? Remember, you can ask folks nearby to help translate when language is an issue especially in rural communities instead of assuming you know what is being said. Enjoy your travels and glad you made it through Ethiopia.

[@marcelinodavila4909]

Not only did you 😉 show us some beautiful rugged mountain scenery but you showed us what a great humanitarian you are Kinga. What we in America take candy for granted, you just made those children feel like a million $. May God bless you in your travels. You are a super gutsy young lady on two wheels that fears nothing. Greetings from South Texas USA and a 78 year old Harley Davidson rider.

[@jonascarlsson9826]

Hi! I just wanted to say that, when you get old, you can look back at your life knowing you filled it with more adventures and experiences than anyone could hope for. I’m glad you share this with us 8-5 Office workers. Ride carefully!

[@Tes-qe1jc]

As an Ethiopian and bike lover myself, loved it so much. The kids reminded me of my cousins. All the way from Japan .

[@randydelong1998]

Each time I watch the adventures of you and Noraly, I am compelled more and more to break out of my bubble and explore. Thank you for the inspiration.

Kinga (on her bike)😍😍 Noraly (itchy boots) 😍😍

[@yanaadv7875]

yes..im just only watch them :D

[@S.Yucel1962]

Noraly and Kinga. They both became the beloved of our house.

[@Just_a_normal_guy11]

2 different personality. I like Noraly;s videography, background music etc more then Kinga's . Kinga should adjust her helmet cam angle little up.

[@horacioaldana2223]

I love them two.

[@horse_withno_name8211]

I also love Noraly. In fact Noraly (Itchy Boots) and Kinga (onherbike) are my all favourit ones. Both have a special way with people they meet on the road - Kinga's giving candy and stuff to children are priceless - and both show us the riding as if we were on the motorcycles with them, although I agree that it would be better for Kinga to have the helmet camera in the same spot as Noraly's helmet, but sure she nows better than me, it's just my opinion. I have seen all of Noraly's videos, Kinga's maybe just half of them by now, but I love them as much. I also tnink Kinga has the biggest bike of all female ADV riders. Anyway I'm waiting for new videos of both of them (Noraly's just a week from now), they make my days happier.

[@davidskaggs9914]

Awesome twisty dirt roads...I'm so jealous. I still think you're one of the bravest people on KZbin

I was riding bike there two year ago. Amazing to see and remember all our memories with your video. Ethiopia is incredible country to ride and discover, has many different culture to see and many kind of road to enjoy ride. Hopefully our road can crash one day, looking forward to meet you.

[@yvettegottmer1084]

Giving gifts looks like a generous action but by the time other tourist come and visit Africa the kids expect a gift or ‘cadeau’. When they don’t get any, rocks are being thrown at you. Happens a lot in Morocco Sadly.
