  • In this Episode of our Adventure along the Trans-Siberian Railway in Russia, we arrive in Vladivostok in Primorsky Krai after 80 hours on the train from Ulan-Ude, and head out into the deep green wilderness.
    Here, we meet some friends and explore Russia's beautiful landscape. While doing so, we encountered an abandoned military barracks. I had heard a lot about the abandoned Soviet Military Bases in eastern Europe, and even went urban exploring a military bunker once, but nothing like this.
    After we returned to the camp, and caught fresh seafood with our hands, made a pasta, and drank around a campfire. The perfect day.
    A bit of a background story. This is a train journey of 10,000 km across Russia, the biggest country in the world. 25 days to visit Saint Petersburg, Moscow, Kazan, Yekaterinburg, Krasnoyarsk, Ulan-Ude, and Vladivostok.
    A big thank you to the sponsors of the #TransSibChallenge

    Haha, that was quite the greeting you received at the train station in Vladivostok! Beautiful, profound words on the beach. It's interesting to hear how time seems to speed up and slow down when you travel. It's odd...life can feel like that when you're stagnant as well. That beach seems like a perfect place to think. Beautiful and wild, with the mist and fog adding a bit of mystique and mystery. I can only imagine your joy when you guys saw the abandoned barracks on the horizon! I've always been fascinated by nature reclaiming places built by humans, too. Loved watching you go fishing...and that seafood pasta looks even better than some I've seen in restaurants! Awesome episode. Looking forward to the epic conclusion! 🐉🐉🐉🐉

    I found your video very interesting. I was last in that area Jan 23, 1968 when North Korea hijacked our USS Pueblo. Back in those days it was very common for Russian Trawlers to make dangerous maneuvers around our US Navy Ships.

    Hey, Mike. I'm glad you found those vials of antihistamines. When they fell out of your pocket, I thought it was a bad omen for sure (I'm part-Chinese so I'm somewhat superstitious). Abandoned places filled with poisonous snakes is a recipe for disaster. Glad you made it all okay. Can't wait for your next-and sadly final-installment of your Russian adventure. Stay safe. Cheers!

    The TransSib challenge is probably my favorite compilation of CZcams videos to date. I love Russia and its people. When i traveled from Odessa Ukraine to Vladivostok over a 2 week period we stayed in several remote villages and I was introduced to the finest cuisine of my life. The food, the people, the land, it is my most treasured memories. I truly feel blessed to have been able to experience all that i did before things became too heated for Americans to travel in Russia. I dont believe we will be able to do this for many decades. Probably will not have the opportunity to revisit in my lifetime. Which is unfortunate for myself and for anyone who has not had the opportunity to do so.

    Love Russia, amazing place to travel! But I only traveled parts of European Russia (during the World Cup 2018) and really want to go and explore Siberia and Far-Eastern Russia as well, and other regions for that matter. The country is so huge and there is so much to explore.
    And yeah abandoned places do have some sort of unique beauty to them.
    I also want to catch and eat sea urchins and stuff directly from the ocean, awesome.
    Oh and of course the vodka came after all. Was a bit a first like, wait what, wine? ;)

      @@fearlessandfar I'm not an expert on that, but I heard from other youtubers that shadowban is a real thing. I'm subscribed to quite a few of travel channels, I also watched a lot of travel vlogs from Russia, so usually, when some channel that i'm not familiar with uploads travel vlog from Russia, I learn about it through my "recommended" section, but I've never seen your channel being advertised by youtube algorithm, I found it through Gareth's channel. It might be just a coincidence, but I have a feeling that I almost never miss new videos about Russia, youtube often pushes videos even from very small channels. So yea, you might wanna look into it. Anyway, I hope you'll get more views in the future, you clearly deserve much more!
