Thank you for showing us a bit of Kazakhstan, Svetlana! I am so sorry about the sanctions, I hope you figure out your situation. I love watching everything you show us and would love to visit the countries of the former Soviet Union some day. Greetings from Slovenia!
Hi Sveta, Kazakhstan is an amazingly huge country and the Kazakh people so welcoming to foreigners. In fact travelling to many, many countries on business its the first time I have had Taxi drivers refuse to accept money from me as I am a guest in their country. This has happenned to me in Almaty, Nur Sultan (Astana) and Shymkent. Dont like the salted cheese kurd tbh :) You should try opening a bank account in Turkey as its very easy for foreigners. Started to enjoy your channel, keep on travelling and reporting........
I had a similar experience, but I didn't actually go in person. On the bank websites it does say you need a local tax ID and a work permit, but then I discovered (as you did) you could get a tax ID number and a bank might accept that for non-resident accounts. But I worked out that the fees were stupid so I never bothered to apply for it. I think the 10% you're talking about is nothing to do with YT, it's because of the tax treaty, I think the US non-resident alien rate for Kazakhstan is 10%, I know it is for Russia. It's on your 1042-S. There's nothing you can do about that, but you can claim it as a foreign tax credit (or maybe you can't, because it's a third country it's been charged to). Someone mentioned Serbia, but I think Turkey is the one to go for as five of the banks there have said they'll issue Mir cards, so that means you can do transfers via card-to-card (hopefully). The problem is that Turkey is an economic basket case. I wouldn't put a lot of money in a Turkish bank. But the actual problem you've got is that you're resident in Russia. Companies still won't deal with you because of that, regardless of where the bank account is.
I sympathize with you on the banking issue. I am shocked at how Russian banks are in effect "stealing" incoming $ from Russian people with that $200 per transaction fee. But it does show that sanctions have consequences for ordinary Russian people. I am pleased to see you looking good, and in good spirits. That hair is as beautiful as ever! And you look gorgeous. interesting new mosque in the Kazakh architectural style. I would have liked to see inside. As to Lenin, there is a large bronze statue of him in Seattle, in the Fremont suburb. Its a bit of a tourist landmark. It was salvaged from a junkyard in Eastern Europe, I think.
Lol It's called capital controls and US does it more than all other countries combined. It's only on US$ not on local or other currencies. All it's doing is deterring people draining wealth from Russia into USA, the country that is actively trying to destroy the RF economy and cause millions of Russians to suffer through economic devesation (fortunately US is failing). And talking about theft, How would you justify USA stealing $300 Billion of Russian foreign reserves that is the money of the people of Russia and USA/EU just stole it. And that's just Russia. The worst humanitarian crisis in Earth right now is the famine in Afghansitan that has 1 million people on the verge of death. Caused by USA just stealing Half of all money of the Afghan Nation. How can anyone justify that? USA did the same to Venezuela and Iran, just taking every penny they had saved in banks outside their country.
Hi again Sveta! I'm sorry that things financially aren't working out there, but you know we will follow you to wherever you set down some roots in a more stable situation. I don't remember seeing you in Georgia, but there are many Russian UA-camrs that have gone down there, so maybe some things may be easier there... plus, it's not that far from Sochi. Good luck and I look forward to your next video 😊- Dima
awesome video. thanks for sharing. i love seeing videos of daily living in other cultures. i would love to visit these places someday. i am glad you did not open the account, those fees were stupid high. as for "investing" in crypto, do not get crypto for investing. all you really doing to exchanging money into another currency, like usd to rubles, etc. once you are investing in other forms of investments, and you have extra to exchange in hopes it will go up, that would be the time to "invest" there. gold and silver are not good investments either, by themselves, by sure you have other investments before you add gold and silver to the portfolio. i am not an investment expert, that is strictly my opinion from my research of investing, and how i would handle it, if i was at the point to do that. keep up the awesome work, and looking forward to many more videos!
In terms of military relationships we (western theorists, NATO) consider both Kazakhstan and Belarus to be extensions of Russia, where Ukraine, Georgia, certain other spots are obviously considered not closely aligned with Russia, although maybe termed rogue states so aren't without apprehension. Kazakhstan may not be the best place to skirt sanctions anyway, you're always around Sochi, why not look at a Georgian bank? Georgia will fly right under any sanctions levelled at Russia and I'm guessing no administrative fee is required, they're simply western-neutral and aren't associated with Russia by the west except in opposition. Kazakhstan is tied with Russia administratively, so is going to hit the sanctions in some way or other, looks like in corrupted fees and requirements from what you're saying. I'm not there and can only speculate but would suggest trying a Georgian bank in the first place, what do you think? I'm curious if I might be correct or way off base about it.
Loved your video but please show us more when you get coffee… eat outside, etc., it’s always nice to see how LOCAL businesses go about their day. Anyhow, have a great stay in Kazakhstan.
Keep trying to be better Svetlana! You will succeed! All of us have failures and anyone who says they always succeed are not telling the truth! I have watched two of your videos and my conclusion is that you are a good and honest person. Life will bring something awesome for you, I am sure. Don't give up!
Hello Russian, it all ends sometime. One fine day both the war in Ukraine and totalitarianism in Russia will end. Greetings from Poland Здравствуй, , все когда-нибудь кончается. В один прекрасный день закончится и война на Украине, и тоталитаризм в России. Приветствие из Польши
Fantastic visit. The money part maybe not so good but seeing your friend Christina and seeing the city sights was very nice. Actually a place I wouldn't mind visiting. The park with all the busts reminded me of a scene from an old James Bond movie. I appreciate your respect to not going into the mosque, a great reflection on your soul.
Hi Svetlana! Semipalatinsk was the atomic bomb test site of the Soviet Union. Around 500 explosions took place between 1949 to 1989. It's a world record for one location. This fact explains the many Lenin and other statues left behind, and now concentrated in on place. When the Soviet Army left Kasakhstan, they left them behind like ugly relatives 😒
Svetlana "How to Invest": (based on my 71 years of living) - Crypto is a speculation, not an investment (maybe just a gamble) - Russians (like their government) like gold but you may not have assets for that yet - you should keep several months worth of cash for living expenses as a minimum before you 'invest' - Russian stock market may be good investment as prices have dropped hard ... if you are holding for VERY long-term - perhaps buy a house or apartment and find roommate to rent from you (and help pay for house) - invest in learning a trade or skill - start your own business - can you model? (since you have the looks!) - channel suggestion: make shorter videos but more often! All my love - Trippe
@@SVETLANAFROMRUSSIA Svetlana you should move to Astana, the capital of Kazakhstan. It's the best place. Beautiful city. Tasty restaurants. Very good looking Russians. That's where all the action is . You should go to Astana.
Great laughs!!! You make people happy!!! Hope you get to where God want you to be… You’re certainly welcome to come here to America… I learned some Russian when I was in college… Russian is amazing culture… And beautiful language and beautiful people… I hope this world can resolve its problems quickly. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. God bless you Svatlana
Beautiful video , lovely little city , nice clean parks . Sorry you are having such a tough time being able to open a simple bank account for exchanging dollars. I must say , that park with all the Lenin statues was a little freaky .... but I think the weirdness of that park enhanced your beauty .... you looked amazing in that part of the video. Your patience dealing with the banks was something I do not have .... 5 minutes and I would be out the door 🤣🤣🤣 Safe travels Svetlana , 40 C days , I would have been jumping in the river .
Healthy and right attitude regarding investments. Whatever it is, Krypto, stocks, gold etc. all can provide you with harsh losses (as Bitcoin did in the recent past), if you don't know what you're doing. And in order to know what you do, it takes app. years of quality education and market experience. Take this advice from a banker, an investment specialist who's been working in the US, Europe and in Russia. Other than that: great channel to follow, led by an intelligent and pretty woman. 👍😊
That park reminded of a video that another Russian vlogger posted of her friend's apartment in Saint Petersburg. There were Lenin busts and photos everywhere because the friend said that wherever she went in her apartment she wanted Lenin to be watching over her. Also, I'm really enjoying the videos from Kazakhstan.
It's really have become a problem for you. Although your city tour was still very interesting. Lenin park was a lovely experience. Well done. Hope your issues will be sorted out soon. Good luck🍀
goto the Belarus, open a bank account. 2 weeks later go back and pick up your cards. Easy. It's a 6 hour drive from Moscow to the Belarus border. So you can drive there and back on the same day.
I liked that. A pretty girl in a pretty place. The stores were stacked with plenty of good produce. Dates, cherries, and Apricots are my favorites. That park was creepy. And your good friends' scare campaign against those Pidgeobs was a complete failure. They have seen it all before. LOL!
Great video Svetlana! Sorry the card thing did not work out for you. Glad to see you were visiting your friend though. Looking forward to your next video. I wish you the best. Stay safe and well.
Hi Svetlana) love your channel, its always a joy to pass the time with you)) so hey i just wanna say, i heard you say that you think crypto is a type of “investment”. Its honestly not that. Its just another form of currency. Over time it does get more or less valuable just like all other currencies, but its a currency that you can actually pair your digital wallet to an actual card. I really dont think you can use it for adsense, but just so you know in the future. Hopefully all this will end soon*
Thanks for the update it always nice to see you 🤗 hope as time goes on you find a way to sent up a card keep us updated just wanted to say I think you are so so beautiful 🤗 please take care and be safe beautiful 😍✌️❤️🙏
Local politicians in Russia who dared call for Vladimir Putin to be charged with treason and forced out of office were today summoned for police interrogations
Believe it or not, i HAD actually written - yet a n o t h e r - long and detailed comment for the video; unfortunately though, at the very end, i inadvertently pressed a 'wrong' key and, took myself completely out of - and away from - both the video and your channel, and was NOT able to 'return to' the place where i had done/been doing so - too frustratingly enough ☹ - and i really had neither the energy nor the stamina, i'm afraid, to repeat it all over again 😔.... However, totally marvellous video-vlog as always, Dear **Sveta** 😁...!! ~With much love, to you and yours 💚💖💚 😊
Looks like a nice clean well ordered place. I had heard of Semipatalisnsk before but thought it was in Russia. I have family from there no resideing in Adelaide Australia after they ran away from comunim in the 1960s or 1970s..
You have your work cut out for you Svetlana. The rules are there specifically to stop people doing what you are trying to do (take capital from Russian Banks to USA/EU). It's unfortunate for you as your intentions are innocent but it's essential for the overall protection of the Russian Economy and preventing the collapse of the Rouble. IMO the two best options are 1) Your instinct to be philosophical, just wait. Your money is relatively safe where it is and in a year or two it will be easier to move it. It will incur interest if you chose the right holding a/c so it's not a loss financially. 2) buy a transferable assest like Gold/Platnium (not Crypto too volatile). It's not for an investment but as a way to get the value of the Dollars you have into a form you can sell when you get to USA.
Lovin the Lenins. Im afraid the bank thing tho - thts a really important of the sanctions package. Watch some of the Bucha footage - you will find out why quite quickly.
Hi Svetlana it’s great to see you again, it’s good that you can still travel and it’s really interesting to see Kazakhstan, my advice to you is to chat to another blogger who continues to travel around the region, he’s called bald and bankrupt and has just completed his journey to the Pacific coast, still loving your experiences looking forward to your next adventure.
You Russians have a patience about you that no American would tolerate like how you spent all day at the bank only to be turned away only after attempting your task day after day and jumping through all their hoops. An American would lose their mind and be yelling and screaming inconsolably. Very different cultures from your way of life under the old (and current) soviet union. I Love the Russian people, just not their government ways. In America customer service has always been key, however its almost as bad as there now. Thank you for sharing.Yeah Putin!! he is a rock star to those of us awake
Wow the banking system over there sounds messed up. Everybody has their hand out for part of your income. Hope you enjoyed yourself with your friend in a lovely city. Stay well and be safe. Could you go to a western country to get a card?
The West's financial system is about to implode. Sanctions only made Russias ruble stronger. Svetlana is best to stay close to home. Russias economy is getting stronger while the West's is getting weak. We have complete idiots running America.
I'm EU citizen and I was recently in Serbia, and it was almost impossible for me to open a bank account there. Many Russians (earning money from online business) living in Serbia, but long waiting list to open an account. Visit a bank today, and they will make an appointment for next month. Not possible to quickly fly to Beograd to open an account.
How many blonds are wandering around Kazakhstan? And are you able to use crypto around Russia? It's not easy in the US but you can do it. Oops, just listened to your comments at 10:45 about crypto. Now's a good time to buy crypto and it might be a good option for Russians right now. You should also see if any vendors take silver. It's a little unusual paying for goods and services with silver but it's another option for you guys.
Now is a terrible time to buy crypto, it's crashed in value and if it goes much lower it will become unprofitable to mine it. Anyway, Russia has a shit ton of restrictions on crypto which make it even more unusable than in the US.
I hope you find a way through the financial problems you have. It's hard to understand why the russian leadership has bought such hardship on its ordinary citizens. Stay strong.
Kazakhstan is not Russia, it is an independent state))) But the people are wonderful and many speak Russian. Their traditions are beautiful. And they always smile! Even if it's hard.
Hi Svetlana I hope you are doing well particularly during this hard time. I was wondering if you could make a video about how you colour your hair and how you care for it. It's quite a feature of your look your long hair. Take care x
You are always so beautiful and just love the nails. You should visit Bulgaria as that's we're I am having a holiday at in May 2023. I would love to meet you one day. A get your ortaraf as you are so amazing. Thank you. Dobspato Newcastle Upon Tyne England 😘❤️🙏

You have your work cut out for you Svetlana. The rules are there specifically to stop people doing what you are trying to do (take capital from Russian Banks to USA/EU). It's unfortunate for you as your intentions are innocent but it's essential for the overall protection of the Russian Economy and preventing the collapse of the Rouble.
IMO the two best options are 1) Your instinct to be philosophical, just wait. Your money is relatively safe where it is and in a year or two it will be easier to move it. It will incur interest if you chose the right holding a/c so it's not a loss financially.
2) buy a transferable assest like Gold/Platnium (not Crypto too volatile). It's not for an investment but as a way to get the value of the Dollars you have into a form you can sell when you get to USA.
This is really good advice. The rouble is holding value very well while many other currencies, like the british pound are cratering.

I hope you 🙏🏻stay safe happy health and loved 🙏🏻Lovely precious beauty 😘🥰😍
What about the " buying a coffee" system seems to work for my Russian teacher etc. It's worth checking it out!
You Russians have a patience about you that no American would tolerate like how you spent all day at the bank only to be turned away only after attempting your task day after day and jumping through all their hoops. An American would lose their mind and be yelling and screaming inconsolably. Very different cultures from your way of life under the old (and current) soviet union.
I Love the Russian people, just not their government ways. In America customer service has always been key, however its almost as bad as there now. Thank you for sharing.Yeah Putin!! he is a rock star to those of us awake
Putin is a killer. He needs to be dealt with as was Mussolini. Amen.
If you are an American, then you definitely are not awake, more likely on Xanax and brainwashed
Gorgeous 😍
Wow the banking system over there sounds messed up. Everybody has their hand out for part of your income. Hope you enjoyed yourself with your friend in a lovely city. Stay well and be safe. Could you go to a western country to get a card?
It’s cuz globalist sanctioned all RU including financial system.
The West's financial system is about to implode. Sanctions only made Russias ruble stronger. Svetlana is best to stay close to home. Russias economy is getting stronger while the West's is getting weak. We have complete idiots running America.
Dear Svetlana, you can open bank account in Serbia as many Russians already have done
I'm EU citizen and I was recently in Serbia, and it was almost impossible for me to open a bank account there. Many Russians (earning money from online business) living in Serbia, but long waiting list to open an account. Visit a bank today, and they will make an appointment for next month. Not possible to quickly fly to Beograd to open an account.
Happy to see Kazaksthan ,former republic of USSR ! I hope that war ends soon! Greetings from India.
ВСЕГДА...ВСЕГДА ТАКАЯ КРАСИВАЯ СВЕТЛАНА ОЧЕНЬ ЛЮБЛЮ ОБНИМАЮСЬ ЛУЧШЕ ТЕБЯ КАК ПРОТЕЛО ВРЕМЯ В КАЗАХСТАНЕ??
When waiting 3 hours you can read a book. As the Corona book from Thomas Roper.
You look so gorgoeus..charming..regards from Malaysia.😍😀..love ur all video..
How many blonds are wandering around Kazakhstan?
And are you able to use crypto around Russia? It's not easy in the US but you can do it. Oops, just listened to your comments at 10:45 about crypto. Now's a good time to buy crypto and it might be a good option for Russians right now. You should also see if any vendors take silver. It's a little unusual paying for goods and services with silver but it's another option for you guys.
Now is a terrible time to buy crypto, it's crashed in value and if it goes much lower it will become unprofitable to mine it. Anyway, Russia has a shit ton of restrictions on crypto which make it even more unusable than in the US.
I'm sorry about the sanctions my country sucks sometimes. Whish the best 4 u.
Svetlana if I had a bank I would give you the top tier black card. Thank you for showing us Kazakhstan.
😘😘
The City appears "cleaner" than any in the US!?! I love the way you present your life. We all need to get to know each other!!:)
You need to get out more
👍
I hope you find a way through the financial problems you have. It's hard to understand why the russian leadership has bought such hardship on its ordinary citizens. Stay strong.
Kazakhstan is not Russia, it is an independent state))) But the people are wonderful and many speak Russian. Their traditions are beautiful. And they always smile! Even if it's hard.
@@Anastasia_B. That comment was toward Svetlana not Kazakhstan.....
Awesome tour Thank You. You are very fine stunning
Hi. I guess you can open a bank account without keeping a residency in Turkey but need to search. Have nice day!
Lovely video.
Hopefully, you got your banking problem solved .
I used to love Russia, but now oh man. I don’t think I can look at Russia the same way my whole lifetime
we still love Russia we don't give a fu*ck about you
Not everything is so black and white, friend.
Why? We, all, are human beings!!
Hi Svetlana I hope you are doing well particularly during this hard time. I was wondering if you could make a video about how you colour your hair and how you care for it. It's quite a feature of your look your long hair. Take care x
Pretty girl!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You are always so beautiful and just love the nails. You should visit Bulgaria as that's we're I am having a holiday at in May 2023. I would love to meet you one day. A get your ortaraf as you are so amazing. Thank you. Dobspato Newcastle Upon Tyne England 😘❤️🙏
Sveta, why can't you have Christina co- sign for you, of course... you may have to have her on your account. It is possible in my country.
