Nice videos. I am also from the UK and have lived in Moscow for about 7.5 years. I love the place, and I’m sure many people from the Uk would love it too :)
thing is a city with a good subway system like moscow when you look for a appartment "downtown" you should include places that are not downtown but close to a subway station. if you walk down the street and are at the metro you have more access to the city then if you're closer to downtown but far from a subway
Just stumbled across your channel! I also moved to Moscow and I’ve been here for about 3 months now, vlogging my experience too 😊 It was so interesting to hear your thoughts!
Hi Kate, I'm English myself considering what happened to England, Russia and Moscow starts to look awesome I like that our people moving eastwards so I could feel right at company
@Delilah Faye MUA Ofc domestic violence is a crime in Russia. What you have read is just the example of how Western msms twist and exaggerate things. Several years ago the Russian government just change the penalty for a first report of a small family squabble from jail to administrative arrest and fine (in case no one needed a medical help). Thats all that happened and everything else was just made up by American and European newspapers as usual.
Hihi Kat...from your namesake in Dublin. Fascinating-I speak Russian-though it could be a lot better, very hard work but well worth it-and Moscow was on my to do list from 2020 before Covid...I visited Kiev and again found it to be beautiful and amazing.

My mother got behind the wheel at the age of 50 in Moscow. I've been driven around Moscow for many years, in winter I drove it to the Urals - it's 2000 kilometers and I can say that there is nothing to be afraid of. We need to get behind the wheel and drive. That's all. But in London I was afraid, as in any other country where the traffic is left-sided.
Wow that's amazing! I completely agree with feeling scared driving on the other side. Unfortunately for me, the whole world drives on the right side but I learnt to drive on the left haha
I love how conservative Russia is. I never thought I would be NOT liberal anymore but I'm in my 30's now and a place like Russia is looking more and more enjoyable

Russia is big and in each region the meat is different in taste. Somewhere it is fatty, rich, somewhere not very. But the Moscow region is definitely not a region of delicious meat.))
Is it definitely beef? While in France, I once had a steak, which was nice, but oddly sweet...as I left, I noticed a picture of a horse above the door.

Thank you for the info Kat. Does Moscow have Butchers shops like the UK? Have you tried minced beef from there as opposed to a supermarket? What about other cuts of meat, steaks etc. Are there good farmers markets? I'm hoping to move there in August but I eat alot of meat! Thanks
No worries :) Good luck with your move in August. They have butchers here but I have yet to try the meat from there (because I don't know the correct words/phrases to ask for what I want haha). I've tried meat from every large shop and haven't found any meat that comes close the quality in the UK unfortunately. I've definitely cut down my meat intake while living here.
You don't buy minced mean in Russia in supermarkets. The chains make it usually from second rate meat packing industry left overs containing lots of fat tissue. Buy your own meat grinder and quality meat. Also you can buy meat at farmers markets, you will find them more on the outskirts of the city.

Thanks for the video! While it's true that it's easy for English speakers to find a job as a teacher I'd emphasise in your videos the importance of training before starting teaching, if I were you. Simply relying on your 'nativeness' isn't going to help you become a good educator. In fact, it may prevent you from becoming one. Young teachers need to remember that if they want to earn more money than qualified Russians in the same position they have to DESERVE that chance
Hello. I think there are many advantages for you to live in Russia. It is enough that the British currency is valuable and even knowing English. It must be great for you to live in Russia.Thank you for this informative video.See you.
Neither british currency nor backward englese is valuable here. Britannia is a 3rd world country here, yoy have to prove your right to be here. Our visa rules with 3rd world countries are strict, thanks God.
You said that young Russians are interested in the UK 🇬🇧 and America 🇺🇸 America?!!!! What?!? The way things are going here in America... I was thinking moving to Russia 🇷🇺 😉
it's more about what you guys have made out of your country regarding job opportunities, high salary's, comfortable lifestyle, liberty, entertainment, etc. I know what you're trying to say but not many people assimilate or really comprehend those things.
Many in Russia, especially young people, have fancy ideas about UK and USA. They think you all live like kids in Beverly Hills 90210 TV series. People are that naive here.
I can write you a comment from an American. The distorted view of the west being better is held by a lot of young Russians who would never believe they have a better life than the majority of people in say, the US. They see movies where no one works but the whole movie is about exciting life with money being no problem. The reality is very different.. All the women I know who moved from Russia to the US are unhappy but trapped, only one remained married the rest are struggling like everyone else. The cost of living is so much lower and the need for extra cost services is absent, that they wish they had learned more about real life instead of movies before they moved. I live in Russia and as an American, know both countries well. It is easier to be happy with friends, free time, culture, lack of debt, lack of strife and have a good secure life right now in Russia than in the US unless one is very wealthy. With the free higher education, medical care, usually free housing, long paid vacations and holidays, low cost of living, not needing a car, having safe streets and parks, more services for children, right now it is much better living in Russia. I know several women who moved back after their difficult divorces but they are still in debt from living in the US for a few years. Young people in Russia assume that all the features and advantages they have are the norm and assume any place they go will have even better services and better access to culture and more money but it does not work that way. When everything taken for granted as a norm in Russia, is absent when they move those higher incomes(if in a high demand technology field) they find out quickly that everything and more of what they can earn goes to cover basic cost of living leaving nothing for travel, clothes, recreation, and the utter absence of culture depressed a lot of women who lived in cities of Russia before moving to the west. I chatted with a friend who moved 13 years ago to the US. She had a nice modest life in St Petersburg before deciding to move to the US because her son would have more opportunities. She ignored my warnings when she found a man from Nevada who was obvious far below her in culture and education, or even basic manners. She went for her son's sake but the man treated her and her son badly, and turned out to be in serious debt and living off his eldery father. They divorced 3 years later and left her poor in a small city. She worked hard and increased her income and put her son through college and now dreams of being able to see a real museum or play, or the opera she always loved but could never see one in the US. I keep encouraging her to move back to St Petersburg where she had an apartment free and clear, vast cultural options, free time and savings. She is in her 40s and still very attractive so would have a better social life also. I know I made 20 times as much income in my own business when I was in California in he upper 5% of income and still worked too much and paid too many bills to have much left over at the end of the month, but here, I have much smaller income from my own businesses and have a much more fun and social life that would just not be possible in the US People compare dollars when they should be comparing hours worked to cover expenses. I have 10 times the social time and 100 times the cultural time of fine arts, opera, ballet, dance clubs, dining out, hanging out making new friends in pubs, museums, starting new businesses et, and living with little or no stress, easier access to medical care, easier to meet people worth knowing and can't imaging returning to the stress and anger on the streets in the US.
Our landlords are also Moscovites and have told us how much Moscow has improved compared to how it was when they were growing up. What do you think? What are the pros and cons you experience living here?

Thinking of moving for a year or so just so that i can learn the language (studied a bit online but I’d need to be there everyday to fully adopt the lingo), work remotely at the moment cause of COVID so i could still (brexit pending) work and get paid by my civil service job. Only thing stopping me is finding a nice apartment as they seem to be fairly small compared to London even
Sounds very exciting 😆 regarding housing I think it’s much better here compared to London. When I was living in London I was paying £750 for 1 bedroom (shared apartment) but here we’re paying around £500 for the whole apartment (1 large bed, living room with sofa bed, kitchen, literally everything we could need). I have 2 videos dedicated to our Moscow apartment, so feel free to check those out on my channel to have a look :)
I've been getting a LOT of these videos about Russia and Ukraine lately and actually loving it...seeing actual normal people explain how it is to live over there. With the way the U.S. is going lately thanks to Trump and his new Nationalist party and the Liberal Socialist...I would love to get somewhere over there in the middle of no where, but my son is autistic and addicted to his electronics.

*Moscow is a capital of the Ugro-finnish Russia. Interesting fact that Moscow was created in period of 1259-1272 by the Mongol Khan Mengu-Timur (Khan of the Golden Horde) and Moscovia (the modern Russia) as an ulus of Golden Horde was created in 1277 by the same Khan. These facts are based on the historical documents.*

Hello. I think there are many advantages for you to live in Russia. It is enough that the British currency is valuable and even knowing English. It must be great for you to live in Russia.Thank you for this informative video.See you.
Neither british currency nor backward englese is valuable here. Britannia is a 3rd world country here, yoy have to prove your right to be here. Our visa rules with 3rd world countries are strict, thanks God.

ПРИВЕТ ИЗ РОССИИ
You said that young Russians are interested in the UK 🇬🇧 and America 🇺🇸 America?!!!! What?!? The way things are going here in America... I was thinking moving to Russia 🇷🇺 😉
it's more about what you guys have made out of your country regarding job opportunities, high salary's, comfortable lifestyle, liberty, entertainment, etc. I know what you're trying to say but not many people assimilate or really comprehend those things.
Many in Russia, especially young people, have fancy ideas about UK and USA. They think you all live like kids in Beverly Hills 90210 TV series. People are that naive here.
@@NYCVideoRider haha tell me about it
I can write you a comment from an American. The distorted view of the west being better is held by a lot of young Russians who would never believe they have a better life than the majority of people in say, the US. They see movies where no one works but the whole movie is about exciting life with money being no problem. The reality is very different.. All the women I know who moved from Russia to the US are unhappy but trapped, only one remained married the rest are struggling like everyone else. The cost of living is so much lower and the need for extra cost services is absent, that they wish they had learned more about real life instead of movies before they moved.
I live in Russia and as an American, know both countries well. It is easier to be happy with friends, free time, culture, lack of debt, lack of strife and have a good secure life right now in Russia than in the US unless one is very wealthy. With the free higher education, medical care, usually free housing, long paid vacations and holidays, low cost of living, not needing a car, having safe streets and parks, more services for children, right now it is much better living in Russia. I know several women who moved back after their difficult divorces but they are still in debt from living in the US for a few years. Young people in Russia assume that all the features and advantages they have are the norm and assume any place they go will have even better services and better access to culture and more money but it does not work that way. When everything taken for granted as a norm in Russia, is absent when they move those higher incomes(if in a high demand technology field) they find out quickly that everything and more of what they can earn goes to cover basic cost of living leaving nothing for travel, clothes, recreation, and the utter absence of culture depressed a lot of women who lived in cities of Russia before moving to the west. I chatted with a friend who moved 13 years ago to the US. She had a nice modest life in St Petersburg before deciding to move to the US because her son would have more opportunities. She ignored my warnings when she found a man from Nevada who was obvious far below her in culture and education, or even basic manners. She went for her son's sake but the man treated her and her son badly, and turned out to be in serious debt and living off his eldery father. They divorced 3 years later and left her poor in a small city. She worked hard and increased her income and put her son through college and now dreams of being able to see a real museum or play, or the opera she always loved but could never see one in the US. I keep encouraging her to move back to St Petersburg where she had an apartment free and clear, vast cultural options, free time and savings. She is in her 40s and still very attractive so would have a better social life also.
I know I made 20 times as much income in my own business when I was in California in he upper 5% of income and still worked too much and paid too many bills to have much left over at the end of the month, but here, I have much smaller income from my own businesses and have a much more fun and social life that would just not be possible in the US People compare dollars when they should be comparing hours worked to cover expenses. I have 10 times the social time and 100 times the cultural time of fine arts, opera, ballet, dance clubs, dining out, hanging out making new friends in pubs, museums, starting new businesses et, and living with little or no stress, easier access to medical care, easier to meet people worth knowing and can't imaging returning to the stress and anger on the streets in the US.

I am a muscovite an I am surprised by so few cons
Our landlords are also Moscovites and have told us how much Moscow has improved compared to how it was when they were growing up. What do you think? What are the pros and cons you experience living here?
@@katya.fromengland Moscow has for me one big plus, which will redraw all the disadvantages. This is my homeland!!!!
@@РоманКомолов-е3б Это точно!
how hard is it for me to be vegan in moscow?
про мясо уже говорил в видео про магазины))) Ребят покупайте на ярмарках или в мясных магазинах))) в супермаркетах вы покупаете не свежее мясо)))))это во- первых)))а во-вторых если вы привыкли есть свою говядину, то конечно наша вам будет казаться не такой)))но поверьте в отличие от вашего мяса, наше без добавок))) а вообще найдите себе нормальных друзей и вас научат))) хотя в МСК я думаю это не реально))) потому-что это не традиционная Россия)))вообще смешно когда люди иностранцы рассуждают и делают выводы о России по МСК и Питеру))))))
Are you Russian? If so, please tell us the pros and cons of living in the USA. Since my child and I are planning to move to the USA. If anything, we are Russians 🇷🇺
Какая ты красивая.
Thinking of moving for a year or so just so that i can learn the language (studied a bit online but I’d need to be there everyday to fully adopt the lingo), work remotely at the moment cause of COVID so i could still (brexit pending) work and get paid by my civil service job.
Only thing stopping me is finding a nice apartment as they seem to be fairly small compared to London even
Sounds very exciting 😆 regarding housing I think it’s much better here compared to London. When I was living in London I was paying £750 for 1 bedroom (shared apartment) but here we’re paying around £500 for the whole apartment (1 large bed, living room with sofa bed, kitchen, literally everything we could need). I have 2 videos dedicated to our Moscow apartment, so feel free to check those out on my channel to have a look :)
It's hard to focus on the video with those gorgeous blue eyes you have!

I wonder why u decide come in Russia. People who live here want to leave it
Kat, you can buy really good meat in mosques, they do care about quality and reputation and they also like to bargain!
Thanks for tip :)
Glory to Russia
I've been getting a LOT of these videos about Russia and Ukraine lately and actually loving it...seeing actual normal people explain how it is to live over there. With the way the U.S. is going lately thanks to Trump and his new Nationalist party and the Liberal Socialist...I would love to get somewhere over there in the middle of no where, but my son is autistic and addicted to his electronics.
Do you know that domestic violence is legalized in Russia? Btw autistic children here are considered as trash soooo...
beautiful eyes
Ах если бы русские субтитры .
Btw u look like Russian girl, no difference
Very attractive, but she just drones on and on......
Good thing I'm vegetarian 😋. Leave the animals alone.
British beef is spiced with foot-and-mouth ;-)
HAHAHAHHA
what's good in Moscow? go to school, go. then bam and second shift ... lol
It is true, Russia is definitely not a country with good meat
Russia is big and in each region the meat is different in taste. Somewhere it is fatty, rich, somewhere not very. But the Moscow region is definitely not a region of delicious meat.))
@@oldbagira2192 в Москве не производят своего мяса, его поставляют из регионов-производителей сельхоз продукции. В России нет ни одного региона, где делали бы хорошее мясо, это большая проблема, доставшаяся в наследство от ещё советского АПК
Sounds to me like an opportunity there to import some quality meat for Muscovites to enoy.
@@woofolliesmydog8628 lol, and pay huge taxes to Putin above all else, so good luck you 😏

I'm from Russia, and I can say, that our country has a "dark side". 90% of our people want to live in the US or the UK. I know, that there's lots of people in your country, who want to live in our country, but think twice, please🙏
What are you talking about! If you want to live in America, good riddance , but who gave you the right to talk about all Russians. Что ты городишь! Если ты хочешь жить в Америке скатертью дорога , но кто дал тебе право говорить о всех россиянах. Ущербный.

*Moscow is a capital of the Ugro-finnish Russia. Interesting fact that Moscow was created in period of 1259-1272 by the Mongol Khan Mengu-Timur (Khan of the Golden Horde) and Moscovia (the modern Russia) as an ulus of Golden Horde was created in 1277 by the same Khan. These facts are based on the historical documents.*
