This day did not go according to plan. After breakfast, I walked down and saw that only my motorcycle cover remained and my motorcycle was gone. Stolen. This was not how I thought this day in Erbil, Iraq, would go..

Wouldn't expect anything less in Iraq.
fake watch in slow when ythey are talking to the guy at the shop you can see it in the road
Respect! You can ask some in Baghdad to solder the wires. If it good with that will be no problem to go so far way. Luck
Stop showing people what to do on your bike. And next time, check to make sure there is no bomb in it.
Hello how are you gimme money, gimme something
ofc muslims are muslims. Surprised to took this long before their instinct took over. You're Dutch, you know how they act in the Netherlands.
I don't get why people go to these countries.
I don't understand, why didn't you lock the steering? Does this bike not have that? This problem would have never happened, right?
I bet the hotel staff are somehow involved in this robbery 😕
The Thief of Baghdad
Stolen from a hotel this is suspicious. Nothing from this happened in your tour in africa.
Why not using a Brake Lock with Alarm ????
hotel guys are in contact with the thiefs, you told them you have tracking devises on the bike and after that there started removing one of them.
You are a STAR safe travels wish you all the best 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
I'm shocked. I've spent a lot of time in Iraq, people have always been wonderful and honest. But i guess you get some bad ones everywhere.
Inside job? Someone must have texted the person that you were contacting the police so they put it outside. I would check out of that hotel as soon as possible. Why didn't the hotel have a video to show you? Glad you were quick to respond. 🙏❤️.
Noraly Muy probable que cuando en el hotel supieron que tenías 2 rastreadores les avisaron a los ladrones que tenían que dejarla porque ya ibas a buscarla. Pensaron hiba a ser muy fácil!!. Gracias por campartir, acabo de entenderlo. Importante de 2 rastreadores y de andar en motos tecnologicamente simples
14:45 This episode put tears in my eyes 😢. Power! Courage! Resilience! You are a champion Nora-Lee!!! 💙👌💪
So glad you got it back as for cutting the wiring absolute jerks
26:48 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Why would they go through the trouble of stealing the bike and then just give it up? Answer: someone alerted them of the tracker in the bike and the only ones who could have are the hotel staff.
I’m so proud of Africa. You went through unscathed 😂
😂 Go girl, you fixed it !
