this was so interesting, i was born in a small city in Russia called Kirov (in Kirov Oblast near Tatarstan). I’m too young to remember it but I lived in poverty and in an orphanage and life was very hard. I like the Russian Culture but living there is definitely not easy if you don’t have money or are not in Moscow or Petersburg. Love you guys ❤️ Natasha seems much happier and free in Georgia.

do not lie! if you don't have brains and are lazy, you won't have a job or a place to live. You are used to being looked after in a shelter, but this is not the case all your life. No one will take care of you all your life, you have to take care of yourself. There are many beautiful cities in Russia, big and small, and there is work everywhere. I spent my childhood in the USSR, the crisis of 90 years passed, and I can say that now Russia is on top of a mountain. It's just that you young people don't know what you want. Money will not fall from the sky, work!

Thanks for the video Natasha, and having your guest Dasha (Dari) and both of you sharing your experience with many cities and towns. All the best to you both.

My RUS story- I was stationed in Yokosuka Japan with the US Navy Band (Seventh Fleet Band). In 1998 the band went to Vladivostok on board the USS Blue Ridge. We performed with the Russian Navy Band located in Vladivostok and we were invited to what we believed to be a mafia club/bar to play/jam with local jazz musicians but it turned out that they only wanted us to play “the jazz”. Regardless, we had a very nice time with our new jazz mafia friends. Other than having to run away from the 10 drunk Russian teenagers because they wanted ribbons off my uniform, I had a great time.

Dasha is so emotional and you can just tell how excited she gets.

Such a joy to see your conservations. Thanks

Thanks for all the great information!

Hey Natasha, this is so weird, I've been with you almost from the beginning and because of you I was thinking of learning Russian and visiting Russia. It kind of breaks my heart, to see things fall apart like this. I'm still really happy that you're okay and have the motivation to still do more videos. I remember you visiting the area with all the derelict vehicles and on your jersey there was something like a school bus and you actually found a real school bus that look like it. That was fun. And you were walking in an old neighborhood and saw some boys just hanging out in a little shed that they built for themselves. I find this was so simple and so nice. I I really hope that, in whatever form it takes, things get settled down a bit. So that we all can partake in the surprises and pleasure of visiting other lands. Be well, and keep up the good work, maybe one day we will meet.

Hello from the UK. I had a Russian girlfriend who lived (and still does) on the Golden Ring. So I have visited 5 of the cities on the Golden Ring. Also Moscow, St Petersburg, Pskov, Novgorod, Volgograd, Sochi and Astrakhan. I was shocked how run down many places were, particularly Pskov and Astrakhan. Sadly they had seen better days. Hopefully in the future the mineral wealth of Russia will be invested in the country, its buildings, housing and roads. And not in the pockets of the leadership and their cronies. Russians deserve better.

Hello riioz. I was there in 2018 in Astrakhan and Pskov. Have you been to those cities? Both these cities have Kremlins. The one in Astrakhan is well worth a visit. But in those cities if you walk around you can see the derelict buildings and those that are run down and in poor repair. I have eyes to see, and the evidence was staring me in the face. Clearly these cities have been around a long time and caviar funded Astrakhan and made it wealthy. Pskov is an old trading city and it grew rich from that. So it is easy to tell that these places have seen better days. When Russia becomes a democratic country whose leades care about the country and their people, Pskov and Astrakhan can get the investment they need.

Viewing from Australia, I enjoyed every second of your fascinating conversation. Even if more tourism is not likely now, you are great ambassadors for your sad, enigmatic country- so well-resourced, so much being wasted opportunity. With your excellent English, you are well-placed to repair some of the damage done by certain elements in the western media. No one should be content with second-rate residential accommodation: it's all about productivity. New power tools, building materials and technologies including prefabrication should be used to reduce the manhours and waste in the building industry. New European dwelling building practices show how off-site houses no longer need to mean an inferior solution.

Thank you both, you are great and its important what you are doing. You're ambassadors for your culture and that country. I learned a lot and very much respect your courage. And lets hope it wont take 30 years for things to change.

Fascinating thank you🙏👍💗

I live in USA, my belief is that the current situation is not entirely the fault of Russia. Any honest analysis of history and facts particularly after WW2 and end of cold war supports the claims by Russia that the west with large support of USA has been working to pressure undermine and ultimately control Russia in a way found unacceptable to many people there, Putin first and foremost. This is not to excuse the war in Ukraine but history context and facts matter. So does actually trying to understand all parties legitimate concerns and viewpoints. Being said, i hope for a quick resolution and that somehow Russia can be brought back to full participation with other countries and that humanity can move past needless conflicts like this. PEOPLE OF THE WORLD UNITE, PEACE AND PROSPERITY IS POSSIBLE

Thanks Natasha and Dasha for your sharing. I am from Hong Kong. I have been to a few Russian cities: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Rostov-on-Don, Vladikavkaz, Murmansk, Ulan-Ude, Irkutsk, Novosbirsk and Tomsk, all just for travelling. I liked travelling to Russia as it is affordable for Hong Kong people. However, I did not realise how poor normal Russians were as I travelled mostly to places for tourists. Hope that there would be a change in your country soon and the people could be free. Best wishes for you and Dasha.

I see now why you delayed the showing of this video for Dasha's sake. It is good to see that she got out again, assuming that she did go back for a bit. She sounds like she has been so many places, and not just in Russia. I would love for you two to have a video where you each talk about where you have been outside of Russia, and how you found it. In Dasha's case, that would be about her travels in Europe. And for you Natasha, that would probably be about your time in the US. Then you could discuss the similarities, and the differences, and what each of you liked and didn't like. I realize that this would not be about Russia, but it would be very interesting to hear about to Russian girl's perspectives on the 'outside' world. This is what is needed for Russians in general - to actually learn about the rest of the world (mainly the West), that should help to open up their eyes and perspectives. Great video!!!

I loved listening to you both. It has always been my dream to learn Russian and visit all over Russia. I wish so much that I can do this in the future someday. I loved hearing about your experiences and memories. I wish the best for Russian people and for both of you ladies. I hope your people get government that is fair and good so you can see your homeland again. I lived in Japan and visited Republic of Korea. Both are lovely, but pick Japan if you get the chance and can only see one. It is magical in every way. I just got to the part about Kamchatka!

I have travelled in many cities in Russia and still have friends in many cities, especially in the South. I find many cities so similar, with such similar apartment blocks whether old or new construction. I sadly found many cities to be declining so much, especially in the past 25 years. I quite like Sochi but only a short distance inland the villages are also declining. Many years ago I would see family friends in numerous villages around Kaluga and Samara with 100's of people living there. These villages are almost down to less than ten people and sometimes only one or two. I agree with your salary estimates. Some of my friends work in jobs of 60 hours per week and earn only 200 to 300 dollars a month, and everything is increasing price!

More than 3.5 million families improved their living conditions in Russia in 2022. 83% of Russian citizens own housing. It is important to know that Russians do not like to live on credit. We have minimal property taxes and minimal expenses for housing and communal services. "...These villages are almost down to less than ten people ..." Land plots are assets. Do you have your own land plot?

@@moscow3424 keep your fake story’s for yourself. I’ve been to Russia, also in poor towns. It’s almost embarrassing how they live there. Some locals came to me and ask me not to film because they were ashamed of the situation how they were living. 90 procent live in poverty, because Putin and his clan is taking all the money. So it’s your turn now again….

​@@moscow3424 The Russian "decline" described has mostly to do with declining population in small towns due to low birth rates and productivity gains reducing jobs. Under Putin the male suicide rate was divided by four(!) and the relative income doubled. Inflation is still a problem, but lower than the West now(!). By contrast to this measured progress, the decline of the USA is absolutely mind boggling, with male suicide rates multiples of 30 years ago (but still lower than Russia), and homelessness epidemic. I lived in Canada, and even there the decline, mostly cultural but also beginning to be material, is very evident. The worst part was the increasing rudeness and downright evil of virtually everyone. Compared to the Canada in the 1970s the difference in behaviour is incredible. Most of the bookstores have closed, not because of Amazon but because no one reads anymore.

Thoroughly enjoyed your conversation, and found the discussion very interesting and informative!!! Greetings from the U.S.!!

Awesome video. Thank you both. Brave wonderful women. Luv from America.

Hello from New York in America. Hope the future has peace and happiness.

Wonderful discussion. Thanks for holding this for Dasha.

More like this, please.

Very informative

Very impressed by this video! I like the discussion about the economics, fortresses, etc. Great photography and illustrations!👏

One of your best videos ever! It really gave me some insight into what Russian life is like for the average person.

Very interesting conversation!

Abrogation of personal responsibility is what needs to change. The "I'm not interested in politics", or "I'm gonna go abroad and ignore this" kind of attitudes.

Well, girls, I'm a Tatar living in Tatarstan, Russia. I used to be a loyal citizen of Russian Federation, but now I hate this country. My people suffer from Russia's politics and participate in the war against Ukraine. I am a victim and a criminal at the same time. I am to blame for our crimes in Ukraine. It is all so confusing and tears me apart. I started to hate the Russians and was angry this morning after I had read some news. But then I saw you, girls, and my heart melted again. I don't know what to think anymore. This life is so complicated😢

I consider myself a victim of Russian regime too, but people living in the ethnic non-Slavic republic are victims on another level… I’m so sorry that independence of Tatarstan and other republics has been suppressed by Moscow. I hope it will change in the future. But it’s good you find some hope in this time, keep it up!

​@Natasha's Adventures There is nothing you have to be sorry about. I saw your videos. I know your position and attitude. But what bothers me is the question. Who is to blame? Not you, not me, who is then? It looks like the whole country just goes its way without problems. Dari might told you, but nobody gives a damn here about what's going on. That's not right.

I like this long-form format - learned a lot.

Another very good video. Keep up the good work. :) Chin-Up Natasha!

Great video!!! I enjoyed the enthusiasm when relating your fond memories of life in Russia and the places you were able to visit! Loved it! It was really nice to hear your stories!🙂

Thanks to you, Natasha, and to you, Dari, for giving us a taste of what life might be like in Russia and for bravely sharing your honest opinions and individual views. We, all of us on planet earth, could live more favorably in a more equitable world. I'm sure we all know that on some level. With brave commentaries from solid, intelligent people as you have demonstrated here, maybe some day we will see political and gender equality for all of us. Stay safe. . . 🌺🌹🍀

I used to believe that the concept of bravery was often linked to taking risks or confronting danger. I just wonder what is so brave in their speech?

Very interesting in many ways. Go on, the both of you!! 😉🌈

love you guys

You are both right that the standard of living in Europe or North America is better than in Russia, but even in Europe or America there are areas that are not so great. It would be interesting to know how you liked the various cities you visited and how you judge the people there. Natasha, if cleanliness was related to the strictness of the government, then Switzerland, Sweden or Japan would have to have the strictest governments. I think something is not quite right. 😉

If one knows where these not-so-great areas are in Europe or North America, one can avoid being in these areas. In the U. S. A., there's freedom of movement so generally speaking, once one has sufficient amount of financial wealth, one can choose and move into one's desired area to live. There are indeed no-go high-risk land in the U. S. A. due to our gun culture.

Great video girls. It's like sitting with 2 friends having a chat around tea. Very good editing with the two canera angles, by the way. It's seamless (and i know how much work doing that is!!! It takes HOURS to put the two video files together cutting at the right places!!) I appreciate the contrast between Dari & Natasha, different backgrounds and places you grew up, and then similarities. Very good concept! 💜

Great talking about your countries future...IF it has the one still!? Much respect for your thinking!

Two beautiful souls sharing their life stories and experiences..Awesome!💪🏻😍❤

Thanks to you both for your insights and opinions.

Thank you for this! It saddens me that I cannot visit my favourite St. Petersburg ever again.

Great job girls. Really enjoyed your conversation. From Seattle

Hello Natasha! I've been following your channel for a while. Thank you for sharing your impressions with me. Your "adventure", influenced by the current situation is very interesting. The real question is: What will become of Russia? I have a lot of admiration for the Russian people, but they have never known democracy! Will the current governance be replaced? By who? Things are complex, being French, I have great difficulty in carrying out a sociological analysis. Thank you for all your sharing and I wish you good luck!

@Jim Arnn I'm saying that russia's nitty gritty problem is bcoz they're poor. America I agree with you also has a bit of a nitty gritty problem but because of wealth distribution (rich won't share) but no lack of wealth.

@@HikerBikerMoter basically I believe we agree- but problems with wealth distribution means that a large portion of Americans can identify with conditions of Russian life. That isn't to say things are identical- there is a bleakness to prospects for Russians that life in the USA doesn't have. But it does mean the GDP is meaningless to lives of most Americans.

@Jim Arnn I Don't agree with "most" Americans... There's a mere 3% unemployment rate (which economically you can't get lower than that). Of the remaining 97%, ( the bulk of which are the lower middle and middle middle classes) there's a bit of a power struggle between them and the super rich for a greater share of that 23 trillion. All I can say is that's normal. America uses an elected system so it depends which class is strong enough to legislative how it wants society to be like. - European have the same low unemployment rate but notice how (by force) much of the wealth created by their super rich gets to be distributed to the lower "middling classes". Conservative american leaders may cry socialistic but life is better with their wealth more evenly spread out.

Best wishes to both of you ladies. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Very much appreciated.
