    Summary // On day 7 of our trans-siberian railyway journey from Irkutsk to Vladivostok, we explored the town of Ulad-Ude. After a disappointing lunch, we went to a monastery up on a hill overlooking the city. It was a super authentic experience and we reflected on what we’ve learned from traveling the last 2 years.

    Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the travel bug! We started traveling full-time January 10, 2016. While daily vlogging was not the original plan, we were having way too many cool experiences not to share every single day! Now travel vlogging is our full-time gig and we feel like we have the greatest job in the world! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)
    We’ve pulled inspiration from several of our favorite travel vloggers on CZcams, such as: +CaseyNeistat +FunForLouis +Jon Olsson +Mr Ben Brown, and any other talented travel vloggers that CZcams’s algorithm will hopefully connect us with ;)

    Planning our Trans-Siberian Railway adventure wasn't easy! We had a ton of questions, and the internet had very few answers! So to help out our fellow travelers who might be interested in booking a trip of their own, we've put together the Ultimate Guide to Riding the Trans-Siberian. This guide will walk you through all of the steps from securing your visa to planning your route and booking your tickets.

      Hi, Kate an Nate! "No Abibas" sign means no tracking-running clothing. "No shopping bags sign" looks weird though. And all of these "rules" could actually be illegal.

    • @nickymoloney4218
      @nickymoloney4218 Před 5 lety +1

      I am not sure if you were scammed, but miscommunication of rules and prices FEELS the same as if you were. Whenever restaurants in any country want good publicity, than prices and weight-portion size info laid out should be VERY clear. And there is a problem of a "menu for a foreigner" in some countries. Even if You feel scammed than the service was bad. We are sorry, some of us here...

    • @sammywhammy007
      @sammywhammy007 Před 5 lety

      We did the TransSib journey and Ulan Ude is definitely a worthy stop. We enjoyed our time there. These people made only two stops. We did about 8 stops including Kazan, Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk, Krasnoyarsk, Irkutsk, Ulan Ude, Khabarovsk and Vladivostok.
      It is a complete waste of time if you travel this route and not stop at the important places which have plenty to offer.
      Ulan Ude is not our most favorite stop but we would recommend anyone to stop there for at least 3 days.

    Guys, don't feel bad about the extra charge. With meat dishes a lot of the times the price is listed for a unit of 100g to make math easier. Sometimes you may order more than you thought or sometimes it states below that the minimum order is 200 grams or something like that. It usually will show up as an extra item so I can see it being confusing. I am pretty sure it was the ribs. Hope it hasn't soured your experience too much.

    • @KimmyQueen
      @KimmyQueen Před 2 lety +3

  • @user-le6rj9jv7i
    @user-le6rj9jv7i Před 6 lety +145

    The official answer. They ordered ribs on the grill. The ribs on the grill are sold portion by piece for 100 grams. The order was 200 grams, so it turned out 4 positions instead of 3. Sagudai, ribs (100 + 100 = 200 grams) grill and teaThe result is 4.

    *Transsiberian railway is going from Moscow and ends in Vladivostok without any crossing of the Russian border and you guys are going right way!*

    2:55 As I can understand - you pay more then it was in price list. That happened because (possibly) cost was for 100 gramm or 1 kilogramm of food, but your portion was bigger then this - they just calculated it proportionally. Very often this system used in food like ribs or something like this that can't be divided by gramms. It's not so right from service quality side, but right from taxes paying after. It's more or less OK.

    Im Scandinavian but recognize the ribs dish as its a national dish here as well. It was a large plate and I suspect you had the double amount of what you think you ordered so in fact you ordered 2 portions and paid for that. That amount of ribs usually serve around 4 people where Im from.

    This means dress code. You can not go to a restaurant in sportswear. We have a very popular adidas brand in Russia, that's why the badge is)

    One of the things I like about traveling is learning about new cultures, and it's good to hear you are respectful of customs etc. I do dislike occasionally getting mysterious charges when people in other countries hear you speaking English. Several times I've been charged more for taxi rides (10 euros more in the worst case). It was a bit strange to hear what sounded like gunfire in the background.

      It seems they ordered more than the minimum weight. They sell meat by weight. They should have explained it better but I guess the language barrier is an issue

    "The Buddhist dude". Is that like "the big kahuna? LOL According to a PBS special I watched years ago, and subsequently got a DVD of, Buddhism takes over just before Lake Baikal and Ulan Ude (oo-LON oo-DAY), and continues east. The city is the capital of the Buryat (BURR-yot) Republic and its people.

      All Russian trains belong to the Russian railway company, you can buy a ticket on the website pass.rzd.ru/main-pass/public/en? There may also be some Chinese trains in another place

      All of Russia is Asia. I think that people believe that Asian people all have pulled eyes... Yet there are brown and black people with round eyes that are Asians and of course there are white Asians who tend to live in Western Russia...

    @califlorican Před 6 lety +28

    I wouldn't assume you were taken advantage of just because there was an extra charge...it could be a seating charge, a service or gratuity, or anything! A language barrier will make you automatically think that you've been ripped off, but I don't think that's fair to the locals. Give them the benefit of the doubt..not many people will rip you off like that.

    • @IrinNovy
      @IrinNovy Před 6 lety +17

      I don't think so. I'm Russian and we don't have any automatic extra-charges. So the waiter probably just saw that they couldn't speak Russian and thought they were rich and it was ok to trick them like that. That's disgusting, but unfortunately there are people like that.

    • @Weavemoss
      @Weavemoss Před 6 lety +2

      Lauren B sadly its naive to think that people wont take advantage of you. People will do so if it benefits them, not always but in the real world you can’t give everyone the benefit of the doubt.

    • @alexv4513
      @alexv4513 Před 6 lety +4

      Lauren B I am Russian. It's a service charge. Some restaurants in small town have it. But I don't like it too.

      @user-yf4fo9rh6f Před 6 lety +2

      Lauren B, цена в меню за мясо на рёбрышках указана за 100 грамм! цена за 100 грамм! Если общий вес блюда оказался 200-300-400 грамм,то цена увеличилась пропорционально весу! НИКТО ИХ НЕ ОБМАНЫВАЛ! Никто их НЕ использовал.Всё честно.

      У нас в регионе тоже за обслуживание в ресторанах и кафе берут официально где-то 15% от счета (это записывается в чеке последней перед итоговой суммой графой). Но надо сказать, что кидают в кафе-ресторанах тоже часто...

    The "No Adidas" sign at the front I guess is sport tracksuits are forbidden. We slavs have a certain bad habit to wear those godforsaken tracksuits.
