Probably so, and I'm very happy for her. I'm curious to see what broke severe enough to require getting welded. I hope Honda is watching her videos and addressing the shortcomings.
Wait....welded? What did I miss?

On her FB page about the 1M subscribers. It was just a teaser so we have to wait to see what happened.
They should be sponsoring her, I'm quite sure she's pushed a few people who were on the fence for a bike over to whatever she's riding. Rev'it has figured that out for sure.
Ok..to limit spoiler....this one wasn't on Honda imo.....

Yep. I wonder what caused it to break on the Himalaya? She said she was too embarrassed to film that one.
I have to admit, I'm really liking the direction her content is taking. Less watching of endless miles of motorcycle trek and more interaction of the areas she's passing thru. Definitely mirrors my style of riding which is to try and observe and interact with the areas I ride thru. This last episode made me cringe a bit on the mining techniques. MSHA and OSHA would be having an absolute meltdown!!! 
. Those folks just trying to survive and improve their lives, so I'll put my regulatory hat to the side.

I haven't watched it yet, but it's probably similar to another underground trek she did in Africa or S. America. You sure wouldn't have gotten me down there.This last episode made me cringe a bit on the mining techniques. MSHA and OSHA would be having an absolute meltdown!!!
This one is worse IMO
The episodes are definitely improving, I like where the content style is headed.
Way worse.

Yeah, those conditions were extremely sketchy. I'm claustrophobic to begin with, so I'd never go down there. I'm okay in big caves (Kartchner Caverns for example) even when they turn out the lights, but small confined spaces really bother me.
Wow! Folks just throwing money at her! She'll do quite well just on this broadcast alone. Some creeps in the chat for sure though.
9000 people watching, you know they'll be there, unfortunately.
I missed the live chat. What do you guys mean by "creeps" ?
Stuff like....Itchy I love you....Marry me....asking about her love life. Does she find love while traveling. Just stupid questions. She stated several times that she wasn't answering personal type questions.

A good explanation of why she doesn't reveal when or where she is, but I'm sure people will continue to ask.
I see

Today's episode put a big smile on my face. I truly think she had a good time doing that.
I spotted this on the wall outside her hostel and thought it was pretty appropriate.

I'll have to say the one place was a pretty unique RTE destinationToday's episode put a big smile on my face. I truly think she had a good time doing that.

I really enjoyed the track she rode in todays video, "Last ride in Nicaragua". I dream of slightly sandy, flowy, tunnel like back roads like that, I really do wish we had similar stuff here in Texas to ride.
Maybe not exactly the same, but East Texas up by Crockett forest got some sandy tree covered roads.
