Riding Through Danger: A Journey into the Heart of Afghanistan
In the rugged terrain of the Hindu Kush mountains, adventure is a constant companion, but so are challenges that can test the bravest of souls. In the latest episode of my epic journey, titled I get taken into a large Taliban command post in the mountains of Afghanistan, I recount the final leg of my 260-kilometer off-road ride.
As I navigated the stunning but treacherous landscapes, I found myself in a village where my journey took an unexpected turn. Stopped by members of the Taliban, I was informed that the path ahead was fraught with danger. Their offer of an escort seemed like a pragmatic choice, but little did I know that a mechanical failure would soon thrust us into a whirlwind of unforeseen events.
Join me as I unveil one of the most gripping chapters of my travels, filled with raw adventure, unexpected twists, and a deeper understanding of the complexities within this enigmatic region. Buckle up for a ride that is as thrilling as it is enlightening, as we venture beyond the horizon of conventional travel stories.

RESPECT! Thanks Got You didn`t follow the guys in the car! Great woman`s intuition!!!
Noraly, you are truly one of the gutsiest YouTubers ever. This vlog deserves to go down in history as one of the best! I got chills watching it — it felt as if I was right there with you in Afghanistan. You’re an absolute tigress, Noraly — simply the best!
I think by hamniat they actually meant protection. In Pashto, the word hamniat (or hemayat) translates to protection or support, as found in Google.
I feel sorry for the animals over there.
I didn't see you stopping and getting gas. I am wondering about the gas pumps.
Can you not use a translator app on your phone?
You must feel like u are pretty far from home when u are so far in to afganistan? Scary place 😮
You are absolutely great. Love your videos and taking breaths watching them.
Have one question; what you do if you have to go to toilet during riding and they are accompanied by Talibans.
Keep safe, listen you inner voice…!
Love from Slovenia 🇸🇮
Congratulations on 3M subs!! Safe travels
You earned your money today girl. 😂
We being lied about Afghanistan I see friendly people and you Girl(NORALY) represent us women …scary nice video you are a brave, professional, charismatic, humble, so proud of you ❤
he waa asking its security check point
i dont understand how anybody can defend that kind of culture.
Probably most government and army dudes there are just bored as hell or want to give a good impression ^^
11:00 what even is that area o_O
14:30 how does that donkey know where to transport that stuff
Good lord Nora Lee what the hell are you doing? You are a living example of "Walking in Faith".
It's a miracle. All over the world, people are actually mostly nice, that is what I learned watching you. That's important. All the folks I've been able to meet in your travels is something I'm so grateful for.
If Indian's go to Afghanistan…. Our brothers give lot of love and respect… Jai hind 🇮🇳🇮🇳
You should get a sponsorship for the cellphone mount. I will buy it!
Noraly you do make some really stupid decisions
How’s ur back😂🤪🤪
Thank you so enjoy your posts been with you for years
However was wondering would it be inappropriate you post a warning,etc some people will try to do just like they think they have a role model you seem to be a professional well trained in many disciplines a lot of folks see this as an active courage and do silly things ✌️
No he didn't ask about praying
Je familie zal zich toch wel kapot veel zorgen maken, arme moeders 😅
Na afghanistan more safety than USA and Mexico lol
Why can’t you use a Google translation service to communicate, instead of just saying “I don’t understand” and misunderstanding them?
У, вас есть смелость однозначно.
Door mijn vrouw getipt. Al honderd keer. Ga Itchy Boots nou eensvolgen. Eindelijk maar eens gedaan want ze houdt toch niet op. Jeetje wat een spanning! Moet er niet aan denken. Zou het in mijn broek doen. Dus veel gemeen hebben we niet. Oke behalve dan wat Uteregs bloed wellicht. Respect. Geniet ervan en dank je!
B R A V E but also SILLY……
I'm just a middle-aged, middle-eastern camel herdin' man
And I got a little two-bedroom cave here in North Afghanistan
Things used to be real nice and they got out of hand since they moved in
They call themselves the Taliban
Respect🤠
Please stop trying to sell your vids by pumping up Taleban hate. They treated you very well.
don't try this at home.
I suggest you to don't upload any vlog in the channel until you exit Afghanistan
😁 haha…D: "When insects come down we squash them like this!"😅
What can I say about you and the video…beautiful video, very brave woman…you are an inspiration to all those women and men who want to embark on a journey like yours !
Thank you so much !!
Im from Afghanistan specifically Jaghori district and im genuinely worried about her safety and well being there, she's traveling to places that I as a man from that country woud hesitate to go alone . She should explore Hazarajat or Jaghori instead , right now she's riding through extremely remote areas that are heavily controlled by the taliban, places where you never know what kind of poeple you'll run into. Every time she encounters them i get mixed feelings about how they'll react and treat her, tbh their behavior are very strange twards her and feels unpredictable and makes me deeply concerned för her sately.
You are playing with fire. RIP
Riding a motorcycle is a insanity per se. We all know that. But this is some next level shit. Take good care, Noraly!
Amazing episode! Seems a lot of people not doing a lot en route.

As a Muslim, I invite you to Islam. Come and be our brother.
wow ! so inspiring , super cool
It felt like I was riding along with you. My prayers are with you that you stay safe.
Glad you found a hotel and stayed safe. I would not ride through Afghanistan being a male – you perhaps got some courtesies since you are a female and bike rider at that. You are very fortunate to travel through Taliban areas and stayed safe. Be extra careful – hopefully Frankie will not break down and you will be able to get out of that area. Scary situation. Stay safe and be careful on your journey.
Im your new subscriber and i love all your video 😊😊keep moving 😍
lol, why are you putting "evil" music on the video? These "Taliban" were giving you the privilege of an escort and security on your journey, offering you food and drink and bringing you to the best hotel and you put dangerous music on your video and think they're trying to kidnap you and force you to pray?
man Afghans are way too kind to you westerners after what you have done to them…
Afghanistan is simple beautiful country in the world
Noraly, You have got your Guardian Angels working overtime.
Sending Light to you.
I appreciate your continued calm and kindness you show.
I love how you got a geological tour on the way out.
