That driver was brave to say that to the camera, as well as honest and kind. That interview was a phenomenal insight into the world of Chechnya that I did not know about.

yeah I really respect that, but I think it would be better if he blurred his face in the video. The chance is slim that he gets into trouble for what he said, but It's still there and better risk anything

I went to Chechnya just before COVID and found most people speak very freely. The most dangerous thing for the driver was driving on that road.

I would blur the face of that driver and other people that tell you sensitive stuff. Would be sad if people get in trouble for telling their story. I respect you for putting such serious topics in your videos and hope you continue doing it, but I would really take all possible precautions to not get the people you talk to into trouble.

Can't believe he published the video without blurred faces and altered voice. It is a big mistake to endanger the peoples` lifes just because of a KZread interview.

Very nice choice of traveling you are making Ivan. I know so little bith abouth Cechenya. Happy to follow you! And thank you about so much information!

Hello Ivan! Amazing work on this one! Incredible insights into Chechen life and culture. I wish nothing but peace on the Chechen people. May they prosper and grow.

Thank you again. The Caucasus are one of the most beautiful places on the planet and the people are kind and hospitable.

You have taught me so much with your travels. I only wish you spent more time talking to the people you meet along the way but I understand that you try to show us the most you can within your time span. So many interesting places, especially the remote ones. I'm interested in trains and you always find the most interesting facts and captures of them. Thank you for bringing our far away neighbors a lot closer to me and all of your viewers.

I have heard a lot about this place but this is my first time seeing footage. Thanks from New Zealand 🇳🇿

Congrats on the 140k Vaga. You have earned such a following. Love your adventures.

Your videos are getting better every time. Very informative, real impressions, taking me all over the world. Thanks!

Thanks again for such an amazing video. Your channel is by far one of my favorites. You are my hero😊, little brother! Stay safe out there! 💙✌️🤗

Thank you for showing us the region. The nature and the mountains are very beautiful! The local cuisine looks very delicious!

Another great journey. Look forward to the next video

Your videos just keep getting better and better. This was awesome.

A fascinating glimpse into the places and lives behind the headlines we have all seen regarding Chechnya. Thank you, Ivan.

You did such a wonderful job on this one! All of them are wonderful! Dont stop and please be safe! Excellent reporting and documenting, all concise, precise, and informative!

Im lucky to watch this channel grow since 5k subs. You've came a long way bratam cheers 🍻

the quality of this content is just next level, keep it up man!

I admire you because you travel to dangereous places, sleeping in tents and all by yourself. Hitchhiking can be risky too. So thank you so much for showing us these exotic places and good luck in your next trips

Always enjoy the candid views! I know its part of an earlier tour! Keep safe

Thank you for sharing your adventure. Very enjoyable.

Splendid video. Congrats from Portugal, on the very edge of Europe.

I love your Videos! Especially the historical Infos out of the different Regions.

Very amazing video. Thank for providing the backstory or the Chechen republic , as I always wanted to visit this beautiful country, and i was able to learn a-lot -about Chechnya through your video. Thank you

Very informative. Well done!

That was so interesting, an area I would never get to see otherwise! Great video

16:33 "hey, go run a check on all the people we brought in for questioning 5 times and who own a silver Škoda". I appreciate you showing the honesty of this man, but you should have tried more to hide his identity.

Very enjoyable perspective. Safe travels.❤️

Im Wating for each video of yours, and i admire the way you travel, as someone who likes to explore the world and maybe someday record it, you are an insperation for me, like no one else in KZread, With so much authenticity, thanks for your videos and keep on going ivan, love from israel

Great Video! I love your channel. God bless you on your travels.

Very cool Mr VV. I love seeing the old settlements and the Mosque buildings are really incredible.

I always enjoy your video tours. It's very interesting to see places I know I will never visit personally.

I love your channel and the video, can I suggest you blur the face of the gentleman who gave you a ride and spoke about abductions? It could be pretty dangerous for him

wow, super interesting video. thanks for sharing .

Another grear eye opening video

Love the vids easly my fav youtuber

It's good you document this for before and after...

Fantastic, Ivan!

Amazing journey, thanks for posting. Rick USA.

Very beautiful city and natural scenery. The region looks quite developed, contrary to what many people still think that it is a wasteland. It was quite troubling to listen to the story about abductions, but I am glad you left that in to tell us the hidden costs Chechen people pay by conforming to expected appearance and ideology

Amazing!!!! Thank you!

Always a good day when I see a new Vagabond video! This one was very interesting. I feel like us in the West hear about Chechnya, but don't see much from there. Looks like a gorgeous country.

I really learned a lot on this video. Much respect Vagabond

Thank you for telling me more about the world

Great content!

Just did a scroll through your old videos. Man, I didn’t know they pulled ALL of your train-hopping videos! That completely gutted the channel

Thanks for not being like other creepy filthy tourists who deliberately film women and try to talk to them. You actually was able to catch what is the life in Chechnya for us Chechens and for u as a tourist. That u had not hidden the face and the car of the guy in the first upload that's really bad, if authorities find out he will be killed or tortured

I think of Chechnya as a rather harsh and scary country. Thank you for showing us the country and people. The mountains and steep canyons are stunning. No wonder the Chechen people have been so isolated from the rest of the region.
