The Police in Saudi Arabia | [E66]

Of course. Smell her baby, after that you can milk. Oh wow. Beauty clinic. Oh, what was that? Sounded bad. I don't know what they are waiting for. Good morning all my beautiful people. I hope you are doing well. Another day here at the farm. And yep, it's afternoon right now. And I will go to Saif's farm instead. I will leave this farm and I continue my journey. Maybe 30 minutes away, something like that. So, yeah. I slept like a baby over here. Amazing. Amazing place. So, yeah. Let's go there. Okay, okay, okay. I packed all my stuff. Because I'm leaving this place. I'm gonna go to my actual host, Saif. This was Saif's friend's Airbnb. So, I will go... Oh, maybe I took the wrong way. I don't know. Where am I going? I don't know. I'm lost. I'm probably going to wait. I had to focus. Two seconds. I lost myself completely on the road there. I had no idea where to go. But, after the third attempt, I got it. So, I'm on the right way now. So, I'm going to Saif. I'm going to Saif. And there I will meet the camels. And we're gonna milk some camels, actually. Cool. I'm very excited for that. I love animals. I'm very interested in them. So, this is gonna be a really cool thing for me as well. Yep. Let's go for that. First, we're gonna go through this incredible valley. Mountain road. And then... We are ready. I love these small roads. Incredible. I need to clean my glass here. It's really dirty. I don't see anything. I'm gonna close it because it's better for the sound. For you to hear my voice when I speak. Here we go. Straight, straight, straight. It's very steep. Some parts. Even for Sarek. Because we are 2500 meters above the sea level. Oh, what was that? Something that sounded bad. What could it be? Stop, baby. Nope. What's the problem? No one knows the problem. Probably just hit a little a little bottle or something. 2500 meters above the sea level. So, no wonder it's cold up here. And the windy and everything. Even I had some what do you call it? I have a lid in my ears. You know the thing you have to press it out from your ears when you're getting higher up altitude. What is it called in English? Oops, wait, concentrate. Here, left. Okay, let's go to the camels. Let's see where I shall go. I have no idea. I need to get some support, I think. Okay, so here the farm is. But I guess I go straight here. It's a little bit hard to see in the dark, but I manage. Hi. Thank you. Hi. Thank you so much. Very good. And cold, and cold. There? Yeah, I've been going around a lot. I was like, I went around and it took me to different locations where I was blocked. But now I found this one. Thank you. Yeah. A lot, a lot. Here we go. Salam alaikum. Perfect. Oh my god. Look at this. Teenagers. Hi. Some of them are apparently just one month old. Hi. And here comes the mothers. She's hanging here. Why do they tie her foot? Not to go? Yes, not to go. Yes, to stay. She smells her baby. After that comes milk. When she smells her baby, that's the thing. Do you smell your baby? Wow. This is your baby. It's your baby. She's got to smell it. Is it my baby, she says. Maybe. Is it your baby? Oh, wow. Do you want to try? Christina, you can touch and try. You can touch and try, no problem. Oh my god. Oh, look. Oh my god. I'm a professional now. Oh my god. This baby, go for it. Here's the milk. Exotic. For the girl who grew up with reindeers. I don't have reindeers, but I grew up close with reindeers. This is the opposite. Camels can take all the heat. Meanwhile, the reindeers can take all the cold. Yes, indeed, you can. What do you do with the milk? You drink it. Yes, you go there and drink. Wow. Cappuccino. With the cream. Oh my god. How much is this? How many litres? Yes, maybe this is around 20 litres and 20 litres, 40 litres. Wow, so cool. My god. It's a shame to sell this milk in Arabian customs. It's a shame to sell this. Very kind. They are playing, don't worry. They want to play, of course. Muscle, muscle. Muscle. Wow, what an amazing day. After the camels, we went inside here and we tried the camel milk. First time with the camel milk. What an experience. Camels, they are so interesting. So interesting animals. They are smart, smart guys. Incredible animals. Here is the map of the world. Saif and the crew are doing Couchsurfing, so they have some people here from all over the world. You see me up there. Far, far north. There will be a lot of people from Europe coming here. Tunisia, Egypt, Russia, Malaysia, Brazil. Yeah, a lot. But I'm the furthest north at the moment. Oh, this one as well. This is very popular in Saudi Arabia and Oman as well. They burn, incubate. They burn it. It's like an incense, a wood thing they burn. Like incubate. Ok, let's sleep. Good night. Good morning all my beautiful people. I hope you're doing well. I'm starting the day with a tea here, with a chai. Delicious. And I will continue my journey a little bit south. So I go to a place called Al-Baha. Al-Baha. I don't know if I will reach that place today, but I will do my best. Otherwise I just throw up my tent somewhere in the mountains and I sleep there. I think that will be the thing tonight. But first, pack my things, drink this tea, eat some breakfast and then we go. So this is what I have left. I'm here in Taif. Close to Taif. And then we go first the mountains and then to Dubai over there. And then I go to Iran. Not sure where I go here. But then I cross to Pakistan. And then up to the north, explore here. Go to Lahore. And I cross over to India. And I go up to the mountain again. And then we'll see where I go in India and then Nepal. And look at this. Someone has a climbing wall. This was a long time ago I saw a climbing wall somewhere. But apparently Saif is climbing. He's practicing climbing. That's super nice. I would love to do that too. But on this trip I don't have too much time to do climbing honestly. Maybe when I come to the Himalaya. If I stop a longer time for a month or something there then I would love to go for climbing again. Rock climbing. Everything is packed. So let's hit the road. Okay. Bye bye! Alright. On the road again. I still can't believe there are milked camels. That is so cool. In Saudi Arabia. I was so stoked yesterday. I was like Camels. First of all I love camels. Milking them and walking around. Teenagers running around. One month old babies as well. They were playful. Screaming for their mothers. Incredible animals. Wow. So cool. And I did a mistake there when they were milking the camel. Because she was so still so I thought okay now I can try to touch her body. But I touched the body and the guy was like no no no no no no. Sorry sorry. But apparently you are not supposed to touch them when they are milking. Because then they can just stop. I said no. I don't want to give you any more milk. So. You don't disturb the mother when she is milking. Understandable. So we shared it with the babies. They came from time to time and drank and then we can take some and then they drank and then we can take some. Back and forward. I am going the wrong way. In this neighborhood I get very lost. Oh lizard. He had a blue head and brown body. Cool. Maybe get some fuel for baby Sarek. Maybe here in the shade. To have some 91 there. Great. Salam alaikum. 91 full? Please yes. I see all my roses here. They are dying. Okay. The police. I don't know what they are waiting for. This is the first time I got to show my passport. I don't know what kind of stop that was. Like a little checkpoint where the police is asking where I am from and that's it. Go. Maybe because I am coming closer to the border to Yemen or something. I don't know. It's like a castle. Old ruins. It's a lot of old ruins after this road. I think we go up this way and we can have a look there. It's very small this road. Yes. So cool. That was the wrong entrance. Maybe it's here. This is the road I think. Seeing the map. Yeah. Al Qalada Heritage Village. Pretty cool. Who lived here? What do we have here? Another door. Okay. Here we have a corridor. And all these rocks. And they sealed it with mud I guess. It's incredible. It looks like a tiny little mosque but I showed you something. Can you see there? Can I go there? Let's see. That's right. This is kind of so cute. I guess this was a mosque. This one. Hey. This is being destroyed. Hi. That was cool. They are here as tourists. I got delighted to go to Islamabad. You will see when I reach there. Allah made the people from all over the world. It's so amazing. We love every giant. Every giant. I'm so glad I stopped there. That was so cool. Wow. Look at this. The whole baboon family here. This is so cool. Oh wow. I will check the first camping spot. What it is? How it looks like? I will do an attempt and go down this road. Here. Yep, it's off road. Should be alright. Should be okay. Please take it slow. This path should be no problem. No problem. Then we go here like this. That was close. Because I'm braking too much. I should just go with the flow. Perhaps the left lane looks much better. Hey. Look at this. Hello. Oh. This camping spot is just perfect. Maybe it's gonna be me and the baboons, who knows. But I like it. It's very green. Hi. And it's not as much wind as well. That's good. Cool. Alright. Let's get the tent up. But the first thing I will do is to eat actually. So I'm gonna eat some water and make the most easiest recipe in the world called noodles with chickpeas. So let's do that. Boiling water. Check. Usually I wait with the tent until the dark is coming. So that's in one hour. So I thought, let's eat and then just enjoy this amazing area. It smells really good here. It's so green. And there's not much trash, you know. It's little. Few over there, but not much as I thought. It's very beautiful between the mountains here. Yeah. Score. This one is bulletproof. Luckily. Dina is prepared. Ta-da. Look at this. 38.538. And when I started this journey, I was on 19.000. Time flies when you have fun. Kilometer flies. Yeah, it's amazing. It's amazing. I'm stoked about this camping spot. It's great. And I even pitched my tent earlier than I thought. Usually I do it in the night time. When I'm in Europe at least. But here in Saudi Arabia, I feel so safe. And the crime rate is so low here. And as a solo female travel, camping, not a problem. Not a problem. So if something would happen, I can just call the police and that's it. They will punish them really hard here. So that's why there's not many crimes here. Sure, I feel very safe. Always done in Saudi Arabia, it's not a problem. At all. Just love, wherever you go. Of course, someone can be grumpy from here to there. It's normal. But I never felt in danger. Ever. So yes. It's gonna be me. Sarek. Hopefully some baboons. At least they can show themselves during the daylight. But they go to sleep in the night, so I won't hear them then. This will be great. Alright, so the day has come to an end. And I will go and sleep, I think. Or I will play some ukulele first, and then I will go to sleep. I will do that. Watch a movie, fall asleep, up early tomorrow, and discover more.
