Western nations have been urging their citizens to leave Russia ever since the war in Ukraine began, and Moscow has been hit with unprecedented sanctions. Yet, there are Americans, French, and Germans who not only visit Russia but also make it their home. What's even more intriguing? There is tucked-away town in rural Russia that's been drawing in Westerners like a magnet. Curious? Find out why!

I have always been fascinated with the world. When I was in grade school I was fascinated with American history. When I became a man, I became fascinated with more ‘ancient’ history, or rather pre-USA history. It’s so fascinating a planet to just stick to one country to which you were born. Russia is just one of the major countries that fascinates me substantially.
Россия это самая большая страна в мире! несмотря на все нападения и войны, которые она перенесла за свою тысячелетнюю историю
I`m from Poland. Have never been to Russia, but after watching this video and learning/watching other stuff about Russia even before that, i have to say a lot of the local habits of the common people are very similar in Poland. I myself come from a small polish town, where it looks very similar. People mind their own business, there is local exchange based trade, everything is very peaceful.I love watching such vids, because it shows that common people are not that different from each other.

honestly, being a Russian, I don't quite understand why these guys are surprised that nobody fights them... Why would normal people want to fight somebody who comes with good intentions and lives peacefully side by side with them? Keeping memories of the WWII alive is the best remedy for Russian not to want any war again, but when it comes to a real threat to their existence - then the Russians will certainly transform into fierce fighters.
Lol. West is trying to destroy R u ssia for ages. You don't understand because you're just basic consumer. (Eat,sleep,work) kind of person
Well... America is pretty racist, and yet Americans imagine other countries are even more racist.
@@Yura135 если коснуться темы расизма, то могу сказать, что в России расизма нет. Есть притеснения на основе культурного кода. Но это нормально и правильно. Например цыгане, которые живут только для себя в своих общинах. Воруют и торгуют наркотиками. Хотя цыган, которые отучились в школе, работают - живут обычной жизнью. К ним ни у кого вопросов нет. Это как бы "русский цыган"
Тоже самое с мигрантами с Азии или Африки. Если ты знаешь язык, уважительно относишься ко всем людям и законам, то становишься "русским".
Только в школах может быть. Думаю это скорее не расизм, а буллинг. Там и за одежду прилететь может, если не поставишь себя
Это правда
Well yes. I think the States and Russia has a common enemy. The globalists. They are destroying the US more than they are destroying Russia. Russia is putting up a fight, America sadly has fallen to the subversion tactics.

Hell when I was in the Marines we had a Russian shop pull into Port! Our top brass was telling us not to be seen with the Russians ! We were in a bar and some of them came in, we bought each other beer and bullshited with each other, barely able to understand each other, we had a blast! They are no different than us! They just wanted to have a good time and party, which we partied with them! Never had anything about our countries came up! Great people!

I'm an American and I would do anything to live in Russia. America is a nightmare. Russia has great laws and strives to preserve culture, art, and correct history. America is the opposite. Russia deserves to be preserved.. They are the last bastion of sanity in this crazy world.
Correct history? Russia tries to write his own, not true history. So yes, go there and stay...
Bastion of sanity, right... Just because the US and Europe have gone insane with ridiculous race/gender/religion/minority wars doesn't mean that the country that doesn't have these issues is sane. Grass is always greener on the other side of the fense.

I too married a Russian Lady. Currently in Moscow but i dislike any big city, so we are land-house hunting for a more rural setting.
Moscovites like most Capital City populations are not as friendly, polite and courteous as the rest of the country.
I've travelled from St Petersberg to Volgadonsk to Sochi and many towns-cities inbetween. The Russian countryside is beautiful.
If you decide to move here, Please try to learn, at least speaking Russian. I am going through that learning curve now and as an Englishman, it's not easy but to permanently live here you must 1st pass the RVP 3 yr temporary visa which involves audio, written and conversational questions.
Got my test very soon and if i pass, then at least i won't need to leave Russia every year to obtain a new Visa from Britain via the Russian Consulate.
People are people no matter where you live. Some are good and friendly, some are just miserable but no Russian I've encountered hates me for being English. In fact they think I'm crazy for wanting to live in their country. 🇷🇺🇬🇧🇷🇺👍☺️

Russia is diverse in people. There are both good and bad. In Russia there is simply a different concept of the world order, which not everyone understands. Even the Russians themselves. This is neither west nor east. It's Russia.This concept is expressed simply - every nation has a place in this world with its culture, which must develop and take only the best from others.

When my wife and I were on holiday in the Maldives in November 2022, we met a wonderful young couple from Portland, USA. The guy's name was Michael and his girlfriend was Sarah. It so happened that our houses on the ocean were nearby. In our numerous conversations, I did not notice any hatred towards us, I did not notice the arrogance that the ruling elites of the United States have, they are very pleasant and adequate people, we answered them in the same way. We talked a lot, they told us about their lives, we told them about ours, one day our conversation led us to the topic of Ukraine, I said to Michael: Michael, I listened to everything you say about this conflict, and I want to tell you that you know absolutely nothing, it’s difficult for you to figure it out listening to all this nonsense that CNN and BBC are pouring into you 24/7, in order to understand this conflict you need to understand Ukrainians and Russians, know their mentality, know how we lived in Soviet times and after the collapse of the Soviet union, what role the West played after the collapse of the Soviet Union both in relation to Russia and in relation to Ukraine, there are a lot of subtleties that cannot simply be ignored, February 24, 2022 is the tip of the iceberg. We did not return to this topic again. We laughed a lot, danced, drank a little :), we just had a wonderful vacation in the company of wonderful people. We invited them to come to us in Moscow, and they invited us to theirs too. I always wanted to go as a tourist to the USA, see the places where famous films were filmed, visit different cities and communicate with the people who live there, I’m sure there are a lot of good people in the USA, in Russia we are always happy to have such people. I wish everyone happiness, good luck and peaceful skies.

Очень тронули слова " Тут я могу буквально прикоснуться к истории, к 12 веку" , вот он человек, который переехал не за лучшей жизнью, не бежавший от проблем, а человек последовавший за своим увлечением, за чем-то духовным, чувствующий ценность исторических достопримечательностей.
Да согласен!
Я всякий раз удивляюсь иностранцам, которые приехали в нашу страну в том числе ради богатой истории. Я не сомневаюсь, в том, что наша история богата, но просто не могу понять как люди из другой страны могут ценить её больше, чем мы сами.

My experiences with Russians have been that they are very honest friends. Definitely have to visit one day. Probably many of us will be moving there from Europe in 10 years for work as things change there in the right direction while the West heads for a complete moral and economic collapse.
I asked some Russia friends I play online games with, what £75k would get me in terms of housing in rural Russia, being thats what I've managed to save this last 20 years of working. Things are looking pretty rosey, for a retirement out there. I have 3 private pensions coming to me in 25 years, don't need to rely on the State pension which - most likely - will be pennies by the time it rolls around. Not too keen on paying 60p/kwh for gas and electric either! I'll take some of the 4p/kwh Russian energy, thankyou!
Then theres the women....

Служил в Переславле , очень теплые воспоминания и особенно о людях которые там живут! Храмы, природа реально место для хорошей жизни!
На пенсию, наверное, норм туда переехать
с американской пенсией + доходы с аренды американского жилья, находясь при этом в странах 3го мира как рашка, то жить легко. тут у тебя дешевая рабочая сила и аренда жилья (хотят тут есть моменты, это будет халупа). + скорей всего этот перец получается денежки за пропаганду, а значит можно с кайфом пенсию проводить. кстати денежки за пропаганду кремль платит по всему миру, а это деньги рабсиян. а затраты туда идут громадные, что в южной америке, что в африке пропаганда кремля, которая показывает рабсию крутой страной и делает ей имидж.
а там такое же глупое население как и в рашке, ставишь телевизор газетку и понеслась, все сожрут и схавают.
Это прекрасное место. Стараюсь каждый год хотя бы на несколько дней приехать в Переславль с детьми. Сложно понять, чем он меня привлекает: обычные провинциальный город. Для кого-то. Но не для меня. Озеро прекрасно, вокруг много церквей и монастырей, это древняя красивая земля... И воздушные шары! Я хотела бы здесь жить... Привет из Подмосковья.
Меня никто не понимает: ни родные, ни друзья. Почему опять в Переславль едешь? Что в нём такого? А много всего. Ни Ростов Великий, ни Ярославль так не привлекают почему-то.
Этот древний Собор был плстроен в 1157 году. Ему почти 900 лет. В нем крестился Александр Невский. Князь который смог разбить тевтонский орден крестоносцев и защитить Псков и Новгород.

@@lolakauffmann Этот сосед активно резал русское население Донбасса только за то, что оно не признало проплаченный американцами и Европой государственный переворот и свержение законно избранного президента Только в 2014г. Киев уничтожил 14000 мирного населения на Юго-востоке Украины. А затем активно и демонстративно вооружался против России, все годы продолжая бомбить Донбасс. Киев не выполнил ( и не собирался выполнять) ни одного пункта Минских мирных соглашений. Вместо этого НАТО активно вооружали Украину, приготовили грязную атомную бомбу, которую Зеленский угрожал скинуть на Россию и открыли в Украине более 20 биолабораторий, где были разработаны смертельные вирусы. Только ваша пропаганда про эти преступления вам ничего не скажет. Сравните масштабы преступлений Киева (это только малая часть) с тем свиным визгом, который сейчас стоит в Израиле. Но Европа и америка предпочитают не замечать собственных преступлений.

This little love story on near ~13 minutes is actually nice & inspiring. Humankind exists for mere 20.000 years and up to these days we describe love as " I don't know it's just clicked. Chemistry". This is fascinating. Because this is a magical thing in a digitalized world. "I don't know. It's just her" or "I don't know. It's just him". Really cool :)
Wow, this video filled me with positivity and good feel. I cannot agree more with the beauty of this rural village and the people. It is similar to the country areas around Knysna here in South Africa. Politics initially fill the uninformed with wrong perceptions. From what I have so far seen on the various media, Russian kids are not nearly as spoilt as here and for certain many other Western countries. The cold weather and mosquitos however will deter me, living in wonderful sunny South Africa (yes even with all our issues). These issues are caused by the same types that causes it globally...
Choose the southern areas. It's warmer there in winter, and the mosquitoes are small compared to the Urals.

It was nice to watch this video; I have been to Russia for about twenty times, first time in 2005 where i met my wife. I absolutly agree with the opinions in the video, but 2005 and 2018 (my last time) are nearly not comparable, because of the development Russia has gone through. We live in Denmark, and when I tell people about Russia, they - mostly- don't believe it's true; it's like they don't want to accept it and stop asking. I hope in my old days it will be possible to move over there, to experience some freedom, like in the old days at home.
"they don't want to accept it and stop asking" is so true for Germany as well

Я родился и вырос в Переславле и действительно это очень уютный и тихий городок. После окончания школы я уехал жить в Москву и это совершенно 2 разных мира. Постоянный стресс, спешка, ходьба по головам. Было бы в Переславле больше перспектив, развлечений, то может бы я не уехал оттуда.
Я родился и вырос в Москве. По-началу было неплохо. Но с развалом союза все больше и больше людей стало ехать в столицу. Город превратися в загазованный муравейник, забитый автотранспортом. Но многим нравится. Лично мне пришлось покинуть это место.
Всегда можно вернуться в свой город 😊 в Италии молодёжь живёт и работает в Милане, а после карьеры едут обратно, заводить семьи и жить до смерти.
I spent most of the last 4 years in Russia, drove a UK registered car for the last year. Got stopped alot by traffic cops. Always showed my Irish passport before my car documents. Politely mentioning that we are not NATO members. Moscow cops can be a bit intimidating and more likely to come up with some kind of reason to 'fine' me.
Spent alot of time in Kaluga, met good people, used to go to pubs & chat with locals (shout out to Rocket 🚀 Pub and Snatch Bar!)
Moved to GB in April 23 and don't really like it, housing in Dublin is ridiculously expensive so now I'm moving to Spain this month. Would have stayed in Russia a few more years if the mother of my son (unplanned at least by me!) hadn't become a Banderite extremist (she was born in UA but lived in Moscow 20 years with RU nationality). She's been in Spain a few months now on her UA passport.
Russians are our European cousins, Americans are not! (Although individuals must be judged on their own actions, not their government's)... We need to build business and cultural ties ASAP.
I miss lots of things about Russia, especially the no nonsense, no smalltalk attitude of people. No BS talk about the weather or football, either we talk about real things or don't talk at all.
I don't know if I will go back now that my son isn't there anymore and my best friend died (alcoholic relapse after years of sobriety). I have great memories that I will cherish.
To any Russians that read this- not all Westerners think the same way. Most are ignorant sheep who swallow media propaganda, but any westerner who visits Russia these days is likely to be open minded and unsupportive of the proxy war.
the US has 10's of millions of Irish immigrent decendents what do you meant they arent your cousins?
I used to know a dude, a Brit. He used to come to my town on business. My friends and I would show him around the city, go to pubs, invite him to our homes, we would discuss the same bands and movies in English. He liked everything very much. Not long ago he wrote to us that we are orcs, we live in a stable, we have no electricity and food, we steal toilets from Ukraine and many other things. How can it be? he was here, saw everything with his own eyes, there was a moment when we were all just dropping money for an evening at the pub, and he marveled that banking in Russia was much more technological and faster than at home. And now he's saying that we live in the forest, and there's no civilization here.

Well, to be honest i can understand why police in Moscow would be suspicious about UK registered car. But i would love to know, were there any problems with police for you afterwards?
I happened to have a dialogue on CZcams with a person fron a EU country. He claimed Russia was crushed by sanctions: Ladas weren't equipped with airbags or ABS, and there was no chance the Russians would manufacture them any time soon. But the most facinating part started where he said Russia slided 50 years back in terms of civilized lifestyle because McDonalds, Starbucks and original Cola were no longer there. I thought the dude was trolling but as the chat was going on I realized he was dead serious. I thank this guy because I had no idea what Starbucks was, and I haven't eaten any fast food for 10+ years now. We don't call McD or KFC a restaurant by the way.

Но я не буду насмехаться над вами, потому что понимаю, что вы пишете со своей точки зрения. Это называется уважением.
Что касается того, какой город меня интересует - у меня нет предпочтений, потому что я не хочу жить в городе. Меня интересует сельская местность, где нет законов о строительстве домов. Я хочу построить свой собственный и жить "без правил". Мирно, в единении с природой, в окружении других деревенских людей и фермеров. Возможно, вы сможете дать мне совет, о чем стоит подумать.

I moved to Vladivostok Russia after retiring from 41 years of service to the American government as a former Marine and Department of Defense Army employee with over 30 years being stationed overseas in various countries. I can honestly say that out of all the countries I have lived and worked at, the Russian people are the only people to have welcomed me with open arms and have helped me to navigate the In's and Outs of living in Russia with only being able to speak a little bit of Russian at the moment. The only threats to me are coming from my own country and the west with their sanctions, particularly with the banking sanctions in getting my retirement pensions into Russia. Thanks to my Russian friends, I am able to do so 😊. I have made Russia and Vladivostok my home. I love it here. I stay busy volunteering to try and give back to the Russian people a fraction of what they have given me. ❤

Not all banks are sanctioned in Russia. Look for small regional banks in your area. Can also open bank accounts in CIS countries that will send money to their affiliate branches in Russia . Can also use crypto. No issues with owning or buying property in Russia.

Я к чему: не надо смотреть как там у них, а лучше смотреть на себя и решать свои проблемы. Тем более "там" тоже не везде сладко.
Дело не только в деньгах, а в менталитете, что трава у соседа зеленее (которая не особенность местных, но к сожалению очень развита).

I lived in Russia for 10 months in 2022-2023 and loved it. Although I was in St. Petersburg and Moscow, most of my time living there was in a Siberian town. I found Russians to be well mannered, calm, really intelligent, funny, polite, and sincere. Some places are super modern, others super old school and 'country'. I like that it is not a 'woke' society, that they are sensible, and that the prices are more than fair....cheap even. The only thing that I personally didn't like, was typical Russian food. But, there are always places to eat out that are from other countries (Chinese, Thai, Italian etc). I would totally live there again. *Edited to add that most of the world actually did not sanction Russia or call them the "bad guys". Only about 40 countries sanctioned them. Much of the world outside of the West love and respect Russia and Russians very much.
"Does it look underdeveloped?" It looks like most rural places here in the US, it looks really similar to here in Southern Louisiana.
I'v lived and worked in Russia for 10y.
Russia as you described it is real Russia.
I miss Russia and nice, simple and kind Russian people.
Thank you for this nice video!
It may be ok if you’re a well-off old man buying groceries….not so much if you’re a young ethnic man sucked into the army by false advertising
I am an American who simply thought Russian sounded really cool when I was around 17 so I started learning the language. I ended up quitting for a while but am getting back into it some years later. I really hope I can visit in the next couple years once I am done with university, I would even consider living there if given the opportunity. The furthest East I have gotten to travel is Estonia and Poland, and I know those countries are very different but I really enjoy being in the Slavic part of the world. I have always gotten along with the Russians I have met and even grew up with some in my rural American town :)
В России небольшие зарплаты, по сравнению со странами Запада. Можно неплохо (современно) жить в больших городах - Москва, Санкт-Петербург, Краснодар, Сочи, Махачкала, Екатеринбург, Новосибирск, и Владивосток на Дальнем Востоке🇷🇺🇺🇲
Poland and Estonia are not at all similar to Russia. Poland, although Slavic, is Catholic, not Orthodox.
Приезжай в грозный.
Come to Lower Marmyzhy!
@@archarovec I met it's the closest I have been geographically, not culturally. But since it is difficult to enter Russia these days I am simply relating it to my experiences. There are a lot of Russians in Estonia, some of the bars there were almost entirely Russian. So while it is a Baltic country it is the closest exposure I've had with Russia. I was only in Tallinn though. I've also been to Latvia, but only briefly.
Either way, it's leagues more enjoyable than western Europe. Far more interesting to travel in and more hospitable people. Plus from my American perspective I feel like slavic countries have more in common than differences.
Life in the small villages in Russia is peaceful. People are warm and welcoming. I have visited before and would love to go back and live there.

I am black person from South Africa , when I saw this video all I can say is beautiful
This man's life is what I'd call a dream come true. Congrats
Неужели в Америке все настолько плохо?
@@ghostrider_1701when you reach his age America is not safe. Many Americans are migrating to AUSTRALIA same language, more money, very safe. No guns allowed in AUSTRALIA. Free health care, big houses and cars, wide roads similar to America, only alot safer.🇦🇺
Yes, he's living the good life.
I feel very happy seeing this video, because we moved this year from Spain to Russia after 20 years residence. We based in Volgograd actually. We think the same, change from big city to small village and just to have a normal life. 😊 We appreciate the freedom we have here.
Glad you’ve found your happy place! 🤝
Mi novia es mitad española y mitad rusa. Ella misma vivió la mayor parte de sus años (ahora tiene 21 años, vivió en España hasta los 16), nos queremos mucho y sus padres me adoran. No solo mi media naranja es española, sino que recientemente conocí a algunos chicos muy agradables, pues resulta que son de Cuba. Resultados: Soy mestizo, mitad lezgin y ruso, y comencé a estudiar español con mucho gusto. Entonces, ¡deseo que todos los extranjeros que estén pensando en ir a Rusia por un tiempo o para obtener la residencia permanente lo prueben!
Привет из Мурманска!🫡🇷🇺🇪🇦🇵🇷
@@_gbbr218_3у-у-у у-у-у, нее, сорян братишка, но Мурманск это очень холодно, просто бррр🥶. Без обидняков😅. Был в Мурманске, там много родни. И слишком мало солнца, и прям негатив гнетёт...
@@johnconnor30 да , я понимаю о чем ты. Но последние 2 года, как странно лето тёплые,зимы не особо холодные для мурманска)
As they say, so each their own. :)
Massive respect to you and your wife, sir!
Жила в Германии с ее тошнотворной правильностью. Переехала в Россию. Помню спросила в Джанкой где найти туалет. Ну и пока шла по указанному направлению, смотрю во дворах все такое перекошенное, трава, кусты, цветы растут где хотят. А мне такой кайф от такой свободы! Тогда помню вспомнила Германию и снова порадовалась, что меня там больше нет.
I've watched many videos of life in Russia over the last 6 months and... I'm jealous.
To explain. i'm a 62 year old Brit living in the UK but we emigrated to Western Australia in the early 70's and lived in Forrestfield.
These videos show that present day Russia is like it was in Oz in the Early 70's.
By that I mean everyone trusted everyone.
Everything was brutally raw but exciting (You'd die if you wandered off the beaten track carelessly) with wooden delicatessen huts along the highway in what appeared random places.
Nobody judged anyone. Were all in this together.
I loved it (Life takes some funny twists and turns) but I've come to realise that here in the West we really do live in the Empire of Lies.
All my life I was given the impression that Russia (USSR) is the bogeyman but if the conflict in Ukraine has done anything it has lifted the veil of deceit from my eyes.
Australia has become as corrupt as the most corrupted.
Well, you still can die if you wander deep to the forest and, but whatever, why would you do that? There's a plenty of roads and mobile coverage, so you won't get lost. Come visit some day!
A whinging pom, still whinging
You can die in the Australian outback where roads are few and no phone coverage. @@alexanderruchkov7629
I understand you very well....I"m quite jealous as well🤭🤭
Anyone who has studied the history of the Russian people cannot help but be awed by the culture, people, the diversity in so many regions , their love of music , the ballet , famous writers etc, the Hermitage Museum is on my bucket list so hopefully soon 👍🙏❤️
Half the population still uses an outhouse.
@@RandomDudeOne Slava Nazi Ukraine. Just because they killed ethnic Russians in the Donbass for the last 9 years doesn't mean Russia has the right to liberate them.
Half of US population is about to become non-binary
Anyone who has studied the history of Russia also has better understanding of why they want as little of the Western armies on their borders as possible.
How many times has the West invaded Russia just in last 300 years?
@@RandomDudeOneА ты гадишь прямо в комнате?😆😆😆😆
I taught English in the small town of Lodeynoye Pole in 2008. Loved my time in Russia. There's pockets of goodness in every corner of the globe.
Your camera-work (I mean, the choices and perfect lighting EVERY time) is stunning, dude. The audio is always perfect, same with script and background music. You're as close to a YT Superman as they come.
Hey! That’s very nice of you to say this. Much appreciated 🤝
Very interesting! I think I would love the not judging part of Russian society as well. I grew up in South America and currently live in Europe. Every time I go back to South America I feel so free to just be myself and about my ideas. In the west, everybody is supposed to think between boundaries, which is what feels like always being judged on what you say and if it fits within these boundaries. I never knew that Russia has that same freedom as South America, but it does make sense that it does.
Are you from Brazil ?
I agree, I had a Russian gf, I'm from Brazil by the way, she's in Germany now, she hates it, needs to justify herself with something always, she wanted to move here, but now? Almost impossible, Europe has their fair share of pros and cons, but if you went there without a way out... good luck...
Я почему-то думала что в Южной Америке люди тоже как и в странах Западной Европы загнаны в жёсткие рамки и отформатированы. Всё-таки тоже католическая цивилизация. Если вы можете позволить себе свободу мысли, то я искренне за вас рада. В ЕС скоро будет либеральная диктатура. Собственно в некоторых странах ЕС она уже есть.
I notice that we share a lot of values and manners. We are not that different. From Mexico to Argentina and Ukraine, the balkans and Russia
INdeed parts showing the relaxed freedom from the 'diversity trap and not being set upon with woke propaganda is refgreshing in South America as well,,,,the organic green grocery was surprising to see in south American nothing is really pre-packaged.
As a Aussie I loved my trip to Russia in 2018 wonderful country and great people 👍👊👊
Do you know that a family of Australian farmers lives in Russia? They have a CZcams channel.
I am certain that you would love North Korea as well.
@@yikwanwong8267 I do love Korean food , yeah sounds great 👍
I'm certain you would love south Korea, they eat dogs and have the world's highest suicide rate. @@yikwanwong8267
I went to Russia too in 2017, I went to St Petersburgs to study about the siege of Leningrad & it's very much normal there despite some of my friends telling me that it was backwatered. I met a lady at a clothes shop and there was a calendar with a bunch of putin's face & so on, I asked the store keeper about it which thankfully she spoke english and much obliged in answering my questions about putin, she said that he was a strong man that Russia needs & he's a handsome, good, & incorruptable president. She even shared a fun fact about cats saving parts of leningrad during the siege.
At some point I'd like to travel to North Korea with a friend, more so because it'll be a funny story a interesting one.
I have studied in Germany and France , then i am living in Dubai since 35 years , first time i visited Russia 6 years ago i decided to buy a house in southern Part of Russia and live there after retirement , Russia is beautiful and real with Human values which is unfortunately no longer the case in western society spoiled by extrem liberalism and materialism/consumerism ..... Choosing To live in Russia is an inteligent decision which will keep us connected to our Humanity and safeguard us from decadence
I completely understand this man's sentiments. Americans are woefully mis-informed about Russia - and most of the world.
Looks a cozy country side safe town. Groceries are full with low priced goods, houses are traditional with a garden. A luxury for foreigners.
And two genders only
Median salary in Russia is $340 after tax. You should judge prices by % of a salary, not by numbers. If you have $345, you can buy ~110 KG of chicken breasts a month. I googled median salary in US after taxes - ~$4000 a month. Then i googled average chicken breast price - 3.50 per pound. It means that median US salary could buy you 1142 pounds (520) kg of breasts. The difference is 5 times.
I love reading about how good I live in Russia, and how westerners want to live here. I would love to exchange citizenship with these people, so they could make their dream come true.
@@my_account.buddy I live in America people can barely pay rent.
@@vwilhelm5788 i live in Russia, a lot of people can't afford any rent, buddy.
and not a single jogger to be seen anywhere. heaven!
I can remember decades ago when America was like that peaceful community. Sadly, those days are long gone.
Thank You for your wonderful content.
I think you are exactly right ! Can you imagine the US during the time of the founding fathers? I think there were much less rules and more freedom, except for Native Americans I guess. The Democrats are on a track to turn US into a communist state
I also remember an America that was free, I'm to old to move to another country. In my heart I am sad to see the type of people that run the establishment here. I don't know how so many greedy narcissistic types got into positions of authority.
As someone who has lived in both, a small American twin is much safer than a. Small Russian town vis a vis crime
Perhaps immediately after WWII, but for the last 30 years, there have been on average 2 school shootings a week in the USA, Since Columbine, basically.
America might have been relatively "peaceful" within it's borders, barring the regular firearm murders every day up and down the country. But then, lynching blacks was finally banned, and the native Americans were already genocided. Leaving few people left to kill, except each other, which is frowned upon by a certain percentage of the population.
They have, however, continued their tradition of murder and death and destruction and plundering ABROAD. But, as it's happing at an average distance of 10,000 miles away from American soil, and as the propaganda spewing plutocrat owned legacy media doesn't report it and the American government falsely imprisions those who try to (Assange), one could say that America is relatively peaceful, if one didn't know any better and just stayed in ones suburban Westchester community.
@TheVanillatech Do you get triggered much? I would suggest that you go to your local library and look at some history books and pay particular attention to world history. You may actually learn that there has NEVER BEEN A PERFECT SOCIETY!
No matter what country you look at, there has been Conquered People and all the nasty things that people do.
If you honestly believe for one minute that all the horrible things you've listed are merely indicative to the U.S. you have some growing up and learning to do.
"There should never have been a war in the first place." Very well said. Good for you for choosing to live in Russia 👍
