Noraly, you are incredibly brave. Thank you for your tour of Pakistan, my home country. I have visited many places in the northern area, but I haven't been that far. Thanks a million for your rides.
@ 1.54- 1.55 mark,does she mean that region of hunza valley some residents speak
Swahili?
I heard something close to that❤
Also how does she keep the fuel tank from dipping? Esp in remote areas with no gas stations? Or she carries some fuel for Frankie incase of emergencies?
Am
Learning so mich from this channel as i lobe history,geo politivs and diverse cultures
Watching from Nairobi🇰🇪🇰🇪🙏🏽
fantastic drone footage again! Thank you Noraly!
Beautiful seanery, the glaciers are very interesting. People so friendly. We are just so lucky to have someone like you,taking us on the journey. ❤❤❤
Noraly, your discussion of languages in the area reminds me of ….Belgium. If a person in Wallonia (French) needs to speak to a person from Flanders (Dutch), they often speak English.
When you are so close to the magnificence and overwhelming enormity of the mountains, you realise how irrelevant and insignificant the human species really is. The rivers have flowed since the mountains collided, the Yaks have grazed since time immemorial and then people scratch and scrape at the earth for a fleeting moment before we disappear and leave the mountains to the Yaks. I wonder if the Yaks will ever remember the strange two-legged creatures who came and went so quickly. Beautiful Yaks, beautiful people and utterly gorgeous scenery. Really humbling video Noraly.

SUPER NORALY 🙂😍
Northern Pakistan took my breath away… I would love to live there.
Lovely people give your tours very much value
Thank you Norally ❤️💐
The views are something else. Makes you wonder who has the right balance in this world. Happiness is more important than belongings and money.
I wonder, these whole landscapes empty of greenery or without any trees 🌳 ?
Most people are shocked at how kind most people are, its because we are made to believe that we dont like each other. Leaders are messing us up to be honest
Looking at the scenery,last thing i think about is War. Earth is meant to be a place of peace,kindness and adventure.
AMAZING…
The Chai break at the checkpoint of the shrine was awesome!
Children of nowadays can't even study with candle, during our time we studied using thunder lightening once it flash 5pages done
Thanks Noraly. I really think the UN or a travel org should be funding your trips. You do such a great job of informing us of the world and culture from an honest perspective. Chow.
Wow!Hunza Valley is so beautiful. I am adding this to my bucket list.
Good morning ma'am
It never ceases to amaze me that people live in places like this. I am so spoiled.
The headline is a bit misleading i'm afraid.
No?
Ay muchachita, me pongo muy nerviosa al ver tus vídeos eres única! Dios te bendiga.🙌❤️🙏🏼❤️
Thanks for visiting Pakistan…..
Stay blessed 🎉❤🎉❤
Auuuu the blue lake
Fun fact pakistan has 108 peaks over 7000 meters we don't even count mountains who are 6000 meters 😅 so yeah north of Pakistan is really something
Epic views and love the 'airy coos 😊
BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL, NORALY – Thank you so much for bringing these stunning places, complemented by incredible drone footage. You are wonderful making friends with everyone and enjoying chai tea and cookies from the welcoming Pakistani border patrolman. I also found out while touring the Five Stans of the Silk Road, the further away you get from the major cities and the friendlier the people got, especially between Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan which border Afghanistan. We also got another geological lesson … You are simply amazing!
GO ITCHY BOOTS, GO … 🏍🏍🏍
