On this channel, I invite you to join me in exploring the intricate tapestry of my life. As a Russian-New Zealand adoptee, I open up about my experiences, shedding light on topics that resonate with fellow adoptees. From vlogs to illuminating stories, this space is dedicated to sharing not only my own journey but also the inspiring narratives of others who've walked a similar path.
Having been adopted at the age of two from an orphanage in Arkhangelsk, Russia, into the embrace of my New Zealand family, I delve into the path of my cultural upbringing, the history that has shaped me, and the meaningful connections I've made with my birth family. My quest to uncover the missing links of my heritage takes me to Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan, each step a chapter in my evolving story.

Thank you for being a part of my journey!
Although I am not adopted myself, I get a sense of hope whenever I watch your videos. You are a truly inspiring content creator and person.
Thank you.
I can’t believe it’s been 10 years since you met your birth parents. Mischa and you have such a special relationship and it may never be the same with Tatiana but I’m glad you continue to tell her how much you love and support her. ❤❤❤
I admire you, Alex . I think you have such a drive to search for the truth, and you have been put on this earth for a reason. You're unique, and I love your perseverance. I've been following you on your journey , and I so enjoy your videos ... Bless you in your journey ...Jules
It's been quite the decade for you Alex! The journey continues and I'm sure you will find out more about Mama T's side of the family. You are so gracious and understanding of the circumstances both your bio parents have been through. All the best
Godspeed Alex.
If Your alive today, You have a set of 2 Biological Parents, You have 4 Grandparents, 8 Great-Grandpatents, 16 Second Great-Grandpatents, 32 Third Great-Grandpatents..,..64, 128, 256, etc...Everyone is lucky to be alive, if one of Them failed, We wouldnt exist

I was adopted when i was 9 and i still have a brother in Russia! No clue what happened to him! Definitely thinking of him today.
How is your younger half sister doing? I remember she learning some English in school. Has she continued her English classes in school? How old is she now? I think the last video she was in she was maybe 7 years old? I can't recall.
She is doing well! She continues to learn English yes! She is 10 now :)
I miss your Russian vlogs wish you the best
