@@TutahnAmon , In my younger days here in America I was never afraid to speak my mind against injustice. Slightly before my time, millions of people protested against the Vietnam war, and before that there was the civil rights era protests, where people were beaten, jailed and sometimes killed for advocating for justice. Every new generation of young people here in America is almost hardwired to question, or perhaps reject, the way things were done in the past and the way things are now,, and to speak out for themselves. Surely this isn't just a hallmark of youth in America, but of youth everywhere ? I get that, after living for decades under repression, old people in Russia might finally consider themselves able or even dutybound to speak freely because at this point they have little left to lose and are thinking about their legacy, but are young people in Russia that much more conservative than they are here in the US or Europe, that much more afraid to speak out and challenge the established order, the power structure of the government? Or are they being seduced by internet influencers and pitchmen and the prospect of "happiness" in the form of shiny baubles being delivered to them via more capitalism?
And behind this guy is a main building of FSB (Federal Security Service, ex-KGB) on Lubyanka square. West still thinks there is no freedom of conscience and freedom of speech in Russia... 🙃
I’m studying Russian at university. It’s so sad that I won’t be able to study in Russia this year, but I will definitely visit there someday :) From Japan 🇯🇵
My eyes fell on this comment by accident and I noticed my little smile because of context and.. because of your name. "Love Hina" was one of my first tv-series many-many years ago, the story that still calling my internal dreamy sadness or hope's sadness, the story about a dream of blissful life-path (and about desire to study in university because of unknown love and a promise from the past). It had beautiful and gentle soundtrack. I didn't remembered this for years until this comment (and until "Dima Yatsenko - Возвращение" composition few days ago). Передаю тёплый и добрый привет из России.
I couldn't agree more with you. In a context where it would be easy to get washed away by the MSM and hate everything Russian, this channel and these videos help us understand that the vast majority of people in Russia are decent people who just want to get on with their lives and coexist peacefully with the rest of the world.
@@mariosr29 and also choose to remain blind and uninformed about the crimes against humanity their army's troops are committing in Ukraine. Russia is gonna pay for decades. This will never be over. The Ukrainian mafia will hunt down all Russian war criminals much as the Mossad did after WW2, but they will not apprehend them to take them to jail. They will leave the courts out of it. This is what happens when you invade a sovereign country and commit war crimes. Russians are now marked for eternity.
Just before reading your comment, I had the same thought. We The People love peace and our fellows in other countries, the wars are created by the overlords and greedy.
@@doofwop which war criminal do you mean? This UA-cam channel? Or the average Russian in the street, with their divers view on life and politics? Terry Allen (above) only stated that THIS channel does a lot for world peace, because he shows how divers the Russians think. Not everybody in Russia supports Putin and not everybody in Ukraine supports Zelinsky. And not everybody in the world thinks that what governments do is always that, what they say they do! And yes, that in this day and age there are still wars and people, who want more war, dying people, famine, energy crisis, chaos, ww3 and The Great Reset is a SHAME for humanity.
I'm from Ukraine and despite the situation in my country, I'd say Russia is my fav one after Ukraine. I really want all this shit to stop asap and visit Moscow one day.
Чел, как бы для Украины все не закончилось, какая бы власть у нас не была, не важно, даже они к обычным Украинцам относятся нормально, так же, как и ко всем другим. Люди здесь всегда будут вам рады.
@@viceguy4880 Люди всегда остаются людьми. За все время оккупации моего города, ни разу не чувствовала ненависти к русским военным. Да, херово, что всё так вышло, да, не хотелось бы становится частью другого государства. Но это - все грязные игры политиков, которые не должны влиять на моё собственное мнение об России в целом. Ведь страна это никакая не власть, а люди)
When I served in the army, I realized that collective responsibility is a real archaism, this is the worst thing that can happen to a person. And all those who have since promoted collective responsibility are barbarians and idiots to me.

As a Canadian that wants to visit Russia one day, especially Kamchatka, it warms my heart to hear from the two people speaking kindly of my homeland. ❤
I’m also a Canadian who wants to visit Russia one day. I don’t like their politics at all and I stand with Ukraine but I have always loved the Russian culture, Russian food, Russian language and everything. I read a book that had a Russian love interest when I was like 12 and the main character travelled to Russia to save him and from then on I have been super interested in Russia. And I love the Russian figure skaters (not the ones who dope, specifically I love Sasha Trusova, quad queen)
my father's friend lives in Canada and he told us a lot about ur counry. My dream is to take a photo with a plate "no tobacco smoking, no weed smoking" xD
@@kaiaswrld about politics not even gonna discuss with you , but “I love figure skaters but not the one who dopes” looooool the real dopers are Serena Williams, Simona Biles, Michael Phelps and other guys who hide their methods under TUEs. About Valieva It is a similar case to CAS 2009/A/1930 World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) v. ITF & Richard Gasquet but there is also an interesting issue that Russian tests go to Swedish laboratories cause WADA deprived the accreditation of Russian laboratories.
I am not Russian and i have extensively traveled the world. For me Russia always feels like home. The people, the culture, the weather, the music, the literature, the food. Miss you Russia.
As a Canadian who has visited Russia, I would say that Russia is at the top of my list. Russians are very interesting people. There are lots of cultures, lots of history, and lots of beautiful landscapes. I do not like Russian politics. Politicians are the ones who ruin the positivity of a country. Some worse than others.
In general, any politcs is a very dirty buisness. It is necessary to separate ordinary people and politicians. In any country. Greetings from Russia with best wishes.
I agree. I am also Canadian and have travelled to Russia. It’s a beautiful country with great people. Of course I also dislike their politics and I am firmly against the war in Ukraine, but as far as the ordinary Russian people go, I really enjoyed my time there.
As a Swede I was fairly surprised to see the high represententation of Nordic countries and Japan. However I'm sorry to report that the feeling probably isn't reciprocated in the Nordic countries. I have quite strong opinions about the Russian government but I've always liked Russians as a people, as well as their language, so it was definitely a pleasant surprise! I wish all the best for Russia and its people and I hope relations with the west will get better soon.
Me also but that will largely depend on what happens to Putin. If he stays President, the poor Russian people will remain isolated from the global community. Amazing that 1 man can destroy so much.
@@gustavofring5362 Well I'm not saying there isn't widespread support for Putin in Russia, just that the 83% figure is extremely unreliable. Approval ratings and other statistics can never be fully trusted when the people being asked risk repercussions. For example, according to the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran, about 99,5% of Iranians are Shia muslims. However when GAMAAN conducted their own poll on the internet where responders could answer completely anonymously, the figure they got was 37%. Now I can't be certain which figure is closer to the truth but I have seen numerous Iranians on the internet saying the 37% figure is most definitely accurate and that most people there don't even like Islam. I don't know how Levada Center conducted their polls but if it was done over the phone, door-to-door or by asking people on the street, I'm actually surprised their figure isn't higher than 83%
Because as far as I know for foreigners travel to Italy it's kinda expensive (well also for us Italians ) so it is not so common to hear someone who has been there talk about it

Yes, I am Russian and in love with USA (politics aside ofc). Especially states like Texas, with an amazing gun culture, delicious food and probably some of the coolest people on Earth.
@@lovepeace9727 its shame politics in most countries is not the same as most of the people of the country. its same here in UK gov = big shout across country people = we want to focus on us and trade and not butt into other peoples politics before all this happened ofc. Nobody i think wants people to live in fear or i should hope not.
I REALLY liked Saint Petersburg and Moscow and am disappointed I will probably not get back there now. I also wanted to see more of Russia like Volga cities and beauty of natural Russian Far East. It seems every country has pros and cons. I hear Tunis is beautiful too and Bucharest Romania and Budapest Hungary too. However, Saint Petersburg Russia is really a gem like Paris.
Love your channel! It‘s comforting to see that we all share much more than most of us thought. That gives me hope in these crazy times. Go on! Love from Switzerland 🇨🇭
It is extremely important to have channels like yours right now. It's important to be reminded especially now that we are all one people and we inhabit this planet together. All the best

I remember going for a rooftop tour in Saint Petersburg during winter, and I was the only person there together with the tour organizer. Best experience ever! I felt safer in Russia than any other cities in Europe and I will definitely be back! With love from Singapore!
I have been to St Petersburg, Russia many times and it is a wonderful city with good people, good restaurants, tasty craft beers and vodka :) One of my favorite cities to visit. It is a shame what is happening now. I have mixed feelings about going there ever again.. :(
Their economy will be trashed for generations. I don't think they realize this yet. I don't think they know how bad it's going to get yet. Besides the thousands of western businesses either closed or closing, virtually every auto maker has stopped sending new cars and car parts into Russia. I see a lot of apathy toward Ukraine so my sympathy is quite limited.
I'm an Icelander and have known many Russians throughout my life. Good, hardworking, upstanding and intelligent people is my impression. I've long been fascinated by the language, the food and the culture of Russia. One day soon I want to pay a visit.
Having been to Russia, Moscow and St. Petersburg, I can say they you all have a beautiful country and people. I can only hope we find ways to partner and grow after Ukraine.
That's a pipe dream if I've ever heard one. Especially after the recent civilian massacre evidence has started flowing out. Russia's weak, unorganized, underfunded, idiotic, coward military will never be forgiven for this one.

Watching this video and reading these comments as Ukrainian (east sided one) I strongly believe that people are the same almost everywhere, first of all because we are still humans. It is so nice to see Russians, Swedes, Canadians, Americans etc. here speaking casual dialogue without any politics and angriness. Peace to everyone ✌️🇺🇦
You are right. I also do believe people ale the same everywhere. People were always the same. For example nazi germans, jews, poles and russian at time of ww2. Basically the same.
Thank you, people in the comments, it really is refreshing to see so many people who are interested in my country. With all the hate and rusophobia spreading these days it seems like people abroad are being told we are some kind of monsters. I love Russia, it is my home, but I also am fascinated by Japanese, Chinese, Nordic cultures, I love Italy and Greece, and Latin American countries, and it really pains me that we can not be friends with USA, because I feel like deep down we are very much alike, and could make the world 100 times better if we worked together.
I would love to visit Russia, the Arts, the architecture, the Russian history, the food, the Russian ballet, the famous Russian writers, the rural areas, the beautiful country and the palaces.

no one in the video said anything about the Netherlands, so I'll do it. I started to study the Netherlands in more detail 2 years ago and I was very impressed with its history, culture and architecture. I would really like to visit it when I grow up.. ^^'
Kudos to the Gentleman at 03:42 for acknowledging *his* choice and explaining why 🇺🇦 . My russian friends I know love living down here in Aotearoa/New Zealand. They are all happy living here with us. 🇳🇿 🇷🇺
I think the good thing about NZ - is you get a passport - you are now a Kiwi - Every immigrant wants to fit in - there is no little Russia, Korea , Turkey enclaves where they solely speak own language and don't learn English - - you can enjoy your home culture as well and continue speaking Russian , Tongan , display your flag/culture -Sure we have some silly small minded people , Like all immigrants in most countries you will have the odd day - you feel you don't belong - but as I said once you have the passport you are a Kiwi - Plus if your country you come from allows it you can have dual or even triple nationality . The other advantage of having a Kiwi passport is when you travel - no one dislikes you for your country - which is true of many other countries - However no matter you nationality if you travel with a good heart , you will have few problems - I met very nice people in Russia when travelled their in 94 and 97 - so sad what is happening at moment - Eventually things will change - and Russian Society as a collective will mature and that's a win win for everyone - We in NZ had not exactly a great colonial past - suppression of Maori Culture, Overt racism to Chinese immigrants etc - intolerance to people who were different or just paternalistic smugness that came from settlers from the Old World
@@nimblegoat Hear hear, touché and all well said.🤗I can tell when mainland chinese are obviously new here. They are habitually cautious, closed, not responding to a friendly Kiwi greeting in the street (because one just doesn't normally interact like this over there (in the mega-cities) in case of scams or legal action). But you can see the ones who have been here a little longer: They greet you back with gusto, they smile back at you and I think they realise this is *a* reason why they moved down here. And they are welcome here. Everyone's the same here. We use first names and have ditched honourifics. If the second person *singular* pronoun thou (and thee) had remained in colloquial use in modern standard englishes instead of becoming archaic then I believe we Kiwis would be thouing each other constantly no matter who with no offense taken because we really do not have any social betters here to have to you at. We are so lucky to live here in Godzone yet I think a lot of Kiwis might not realise this until they go travelling on their OEs. 💙
As a Russian living on the border with Finland and Norway, I want to say. I really want to visit the Scandinavian countries! This is probably one of the cleanest and most favorable countries to live in! I really want to visit these countries someday. In general, every country has wonderful sides. I hope that someday we can all live in peace.
Love russia from sweden, I do not support the decisions putin and his government are making right now but I hope that the swedish and russian civilian people can be on good terms.
Truly shame that Sweden and Russia do not have closer relationship today, and ties had been strong centuries ago. It can be said that without Swedes, there would have not been Rus. Greetings.

I'm Russian, and I love all the countries in the world, including my own country. Each country is unique in its own way. But since my childhood, I've always dreamed about visiting Japan, and I feel like it's a pretty common thing for many Russians :)
As a Japanese, I have to admit there are mutual love between Japanese and Russians from the cultural point of view. In Japan, Russian cultures are always quite popular.
Dude, they just speak another language and have a different laws. Stop the "OMG they are not different from us 😭😭😭". You're not openminded. Hope one day you will.
Interesting that at 00:27 the young man says he likes Spain because there is more freedom than there is in Russia. Historically, we should remember that Spain endured years of a fascist dictatorship, until the people said "to hell with that" and rebelled! Russian citizens, are you listening?

For those who dont know, the last guy in the video is Alexander Panchin - biologist, science popularizer, journalist, blogger, speaker and atheist (often has debates with priests). Really famous dude)
I've been looking at some of your videos from the past - I highly recommend your viewers to take a look, some of them are really interesting. Easy to forget what the world was like before the catastrophe in Ukraine.
There is NO catastrophe! The neo-Nazis from there MUST pay for what they have done (crimes against humanity) in Donbass! Slava Putin and The Russian Federation! PS Finally, it's high time the hypocritical west taught a lesson!
You said... "Easy to forget what the world was like before the catastrophe in Ukraine"... just stop. it is not some random catastrophe. russia ATTACKED a sovereign country and is actively committing war crimes. call it what it is. ANY russian not condemning this is complicit. russians must overthrow the current leadership if they want to survive. the west is out of patience, particularly the United States. America will need to fix the russia problem once again. bye bye russian federation...
I’m in love with Norway, but I have never been there lol I’ve seen a lot of photos and travel blogs (Антон Птушкин is the best), but I'm sure Norwegian nature is much more beautiful in real life. I read a lot of Norwegian detective stories and I’d say that I am a big fan, especially of Jo Nesbo. Greetings from Saint Petersburg ❤️
I was in Norway. The local climate seemed very pleasant to me. It was summer and it was not hot, but quite fresh and pleasant. And I just don't like the heat. Oslo turned out to be a small cozy city. Very few cars. Many people ride bicycles. Almost no tall buildings. From the roof of the ten-story hostel where I stayed, I could see the entire city. A big contrast compared to Moscow. But this is not surprising. There are twice as many people in Moscow as in the whole of Norway. There is also a very beautiful memorial cemetery in the city. And people walk there like in a park. And a very clean mountain river with very cold water flows through the city. There are also a lot of beautiful graffiti in the city and people with tattoos are often found. And the Norwegians have very beautiful wheat-colored hair.
I am from Germany, I really liked this video because it shows the diversity in your big country and that not every russian has the same ideology. I found it interesting that so many are liking Japan the most. My uncle lives there since 2002 (he emigrated) and he can confirm the beauty of this country and its culture. I also visited it once and it was amazing. But for me personally apart of that whole situation which is so terrible I'd really like to visit Russia some day and travel through the whole country and maybe parts of the old soviet union. You folks have a also very interesting culture and history and I would really enjoy to see more of it in real life. I wish you all the best, peace from Lüneburg💪
As a Moscow guy who traveled in Germany in 1991-92 and 2017 I can say that I love small atmospheric German towns with cobblestones and clean streets, but I did not quite like Frankfurt and Berlin. My favorite places in Germany are Heidelberg (Hessen) and Kloster Schoental (Baden Wurttemberg).
Its amazing the bright responses and great display of global knowledge. I feel that if you do the same question in USA, you wouldn't get the same worldly answers.
I've recently been looking at your channel and videos...they have been expanding my horizons as living in the US has a way of isolating you from the rest of the world. Thank you for all of your excellent work and allowing others to open their minds/ thoughts to differing mentalities and opinions. I may not agree with some of these opinions but I do feel those are the opinions that allow me to truly expand my understanding of the world.
The only thing isolating about the US is you and the ocean. You don't need a visa to travel to most places (that's rare) But we have thousands of miles of ocean separating us from most of the world. However, that wonderful ocean also keeps us safer. The US is virtually impossible to invade. Especially since there are 120.5 guns per 100 people.
@@TheBandit7613 Agreed. Shiiii÷...I wouldn't trade it for anything but it's good to learn about new & different things, ways of life & opinions if you're even mildly interested at keeping life's curiosities amused.
As a Russian myself, i love Japan. Beautiful nature, rich culture, awesome food, a lot of unusual and cool stuff. I believe that Asia is the future. Very good examples - China, India, South Korea, Thailand... lovely places with great people.
China has a shitty government and idk much about India but their 3 ongoing conflicts are concerning. But overall you're kind of right, kind of, because on one side you have all these rich and very modern countries like the ones you named, but on the other side there are impoverished countries like Laos and Philippines or absolute hell holes like Afganistan, Pakistan, Syria, Yemen and a couple more
Not all Russians are bad. But Putin gives Russian a bad name all around the world because of invading Ukraine. Not rocket science to analyze that Russia is the aggressor in this war.
@@lpatryk2004 whether the government is shitty for citizens is very dependent on the class of the citizen. Regular Chinese in cities are more or less quite comfortable with CCP and their lives. In a way, CCP is restrictive, however they do care about citizens & make policies that help people from time to time. In a way it’s more democratic than western democracy.

That man looks like Alexander Panchin - he is a Russian biologist, who is pretty popular inside Russia as science communicator and member of anti-fake movement where he and other scientists do their best to warn Russians of pseudo-scientific lies (like dangers of 5G, GMO crops etc.). All-around great guy!
I’m surprised about how different people think about life in other countries. For Russians in this video and in general for east European countries the most beautiful places are those where you gain the most (north Europe and Canada). If you ask the same question to west European countries people would answer looking for totally different aspects of life, for example climate, way of living, culture etc.
I think the same. The standard of living is very important especially when you live in a pour country. I really don't care about the beautiful place and environment as long as there is no infrastructure, healthcare or education and the salaries are meager.
I don't agree with the politics in Russia and Putin but ever since I was a child I've been fascinated by Russia, I've always wanted to know the lifestyle of living in Russia and to see how life really is other than how it's portrayed on tv
Foreign friends, do not judge our country by everything you see on TV and read on the Internet. Come (if possible) and see for yourself how beautiful our country and wonderful people are.
Get a new leader and we will come celebrate with you! P.s we believe the footage that we see everyday of the war crimes committed by Russians in Ukraine 🇺🇦
@@chaosXP3RT, haha, no we are not some hostages-possessed barbaric country. We always glad to see foreigners who, despite all the negative image, came to see us and our country with they own eyes. In large cities you can easily speak English, no one looks down on you or something like this. In small towns there less people who speak English, but the people themselves are kinder and more hospitable. There we have absolutely unique architecture, good food, pretty decent vine and most beautiful women in the world. You should give Russia a chance.
These are great interviews, the Russians dont seem so different from us. They have to be careful what they say. They probably sound more reasonable than if you asked Americans equivalent questions. They are likable people just their government is insane.

Son un pueblo muy cálido y lleno de buenas personas.

As an American, not surprised to see some of the dudes chose Japan in this video. Like here in the U.S. many males have grown up with anime, love import cars from Japan (I own two S13’s, a zx6r, and a Z33), Japanese culture, video games, and electronics. I think Japan is on the top of the list for most countries (politics aside).
I'm from Europe, but I literally grew up watching anime... I was always wondering why my worldview was so different from those around me and recently I came to realise that I acquired some of Japanese behaviour patterns and values
lul, "worldwide love for Japan"- is politics. the politics of Japan. isn't it great when the younger generation of other countries is favorably disposed towards your country?)

I've been to 27 countries around the world. I've seen about 300 cities. I lived abroad, though not for long. My personal conclusion is that there is not a single perfect state or city. This is my subjective opinion. And at the same time, each country, each place is interesting in its own way. Only by seeing countries with your own eyes, communicating personally with people of another culture, do you realize that people are the same everywhere. Yes, there are cultural differences, but everyone wants love, family health, good friends, security. And one more conclusion - the country in which you grew up, where the graves of your ancestors are your inner strength. As in Russian fairy tales - the strength of the heroic in a handful of native land.
I was only in Greece and Hungary in my early childhood. As for the country I love the most, I don't know. I have too many favorite countries to choose one of them.😁😅
@@brotesserzoltan the history of the Hungarian nation is amazing. Despite the fact that we Russians had conflicts with them in the past. Hungary seems like a good place to visit it again.
@@brotesserzoltan Hungary is an awesome place I've stayed in 2019. We went here by car through Moscow, Minsk, Poland and Slovakia. Departed 29, Dec and arrived 31, Dec. Drove through country, tried thermal baths Szechenyi, ones near Austrian border and cave baths near Szolnok. Architecture of Budapest is truly amazing, like in Vienna. The prices are low and ok for me in comparison with Austria. Good public transport and also adequate government.
Damn. I'm Colombian and I was supposed to start my studies in Russia (more exactly in Nizhny Novgorod) this upcoming fall, but the way things are nowadays, who knows... anyway, I'd like to learn more about the city or Russia in general
Wow, you've been working hard, great video as always! I'd be interested in people talking about mental health, such as depression or anxiety, and how common it is to get medication or therapy for it. Is it easy to get help, or did covid and the sanctions affect it somehow? Is it normal to talk about these things or do people feel that they have to pretend that everything is fine?
Do not confuse us with gentle Europeans who run to a psychologist because of any minor problems =) we do not take it ... drank a bottle of vodka with your best friend and told him about your concerns, he supported you and all the problem is solved =)
Coming from this movie/documentary (with Donald Sutherland ua-cam.com/video/V_Agr2SOaM8/v-deo.html at 59:31) life was kind of dangerous for psychologists in the USSR because everybody was supposedly happy, living in a communist country. So I guess, psychology today is still underdeveloped in the former soviet countries. But maybe someone from a former soviet country comments on it? How was psychology taught and practised back then and today?
I'm from the former Soviet Union too, and my country has a very high rate of suicide, doctors prescribe xanax for everything and we drink a lot too. That's why I'm curious, and also because in previous videos people did touch this topic, but only briefly.
As a medical student, I have learned one truth that the concept of a "healthy person" is not achievable in absolute terms. In our country, many people are afraid of psychologists and psychiatrists, even other medical workers, because there is a fear of running into a layman, a charlatan or getting registered or getting a bad stamp in documents. It is not doubtful whether those who want to receive paid assistance and there are quite a few of them. I believe that every second person on earth has some kind of psychic phenomenon.
I know a lot of people in Russia who learn german and love your country. German is one of the most popular languages here. We also have a few german villages. People with german ancestry live in them and still speak german.
Я очень люблю Германию и мечтаю там побывать когда-нибудь. Красивые города, приятная атмосфера, добропорядочные люди, удивительная культура, интересный язык. Надеюсь, когда-нибудь мы сможем стать партнёрами или друзьями 🇩🇪🤝🤍💙🤍

@@ssc00p Well, we had a were troubled past. But it is very common in Germany to not love the own country, so it is suprising people not from Germany do the opposite.
The most comforting and warm reply was 'Russia' Why? 'Because it is my Homeland.' I am an Englishman and I love this country with a passion. It is in my DNA, my blood, my ancestors. So, that young man who answered 'Russia' I can equate to.
All great answers. I wish I could travel to most of them. I've only been to a few countries in North and South America and the Caribbean. Can't complain, though. No one else in my family has been out of the country since WWII.
Don't forget that flying to any country in Europe from Moscow is mainly faster that from the east coast to the west coast. Just take a look at the map of Europe. In terms of Japan and Australia - some of the responders said they've never been there. Americans, in general, do not travel much abroad, except some retiries and high income people. My observation. To begin with, we don't have a 4-5 week vacation every year. Plus a lot of people prefer not to take vacation time - they want money to pay their bills.
@@coldplayfan7357 "The islands of the Caribbean (the West Indies) are often regarded as a subregion of North America". Wikipedia and other resources. As I understand, J. Phillips meant the islands, not some countries in South America that are considered also being "Caribbean" in heritage
I walked out of the border of my country and when I saw people speaking a tongue I cannot comprehend I couldn't take it , truly the russians in the video are speaking the truth no matter how unforgiving your homeland is you will have that feeling of coming back even if you can speak their language.

in Russia you need to be old to speak your mind freely, all other people are scared, its so sad
@@TutahnAmon , In my younger days here in America I was never afraid to speak my mind against injustice. Slightly before my time, millions of people protested against the Vietnam war, and before that there was the civil rights era protests, where people were beaten, jailed and sometimes killed for advocating for justice. Every new generation of young people here in America is almost hardwired to question, or perhaps reject, the way things were done in the past and the way things are now,, and to speak out for themselves. Surely this isn't just a hallmark of youth in America, but of youth everywhere ? I get that, after living for decades under repression, old people in Russia might finally consider themselves able or even dutybound to speak freely because at this point they have little left to lose and are thinking about their legacy, but are young people in Russia that much more conservative than they are here in the US or Europe, that much more afraid to speak out and challenge the established order, the power structure of the government? Or are they being seduced by internet influencers and pitchmen and the prospect of "happiness" in the form of shiny baubles being delivered to them via more capitalism?
And behind this guy is a main building of FSB (Federal Security Service, ex-KGB) on Lubyanka square. West still thinks there is no freedom of conscience and freedom of speech in Russia... 🙃

I would like to live in the USA or Canada for like 2 years. I would go to NHL, NBA, MLB every day and buy a lot of souveniers with sport teams logos
I’m also a Canadian who wants to visit Russia one day. I don’t like their politics at all and I stand with Ukraine but I have always loved the Russian culture, Russian food, Russian language and everything. I read a book that had a Russian love interest when I was like 12 and the main character travelled to Russia to save him and from then on I have been super interested in Russia. And I love the Russian figure skaters (not the ones who dope, specifically I love Sasha Trusova, quad queen)

As a Canadian who has visited Russia, I would say that Russia is at the top of my list. Russians are very interesting people. There are lots of cultures, lots of history, and lots of beautiful landscapes. I do not like Russian politics. Politicians are the ones who ruin the positivity of a country. Some worse than others.
our politicians only protect the interests of the country, it's strange that you don't mention your politicians in this way
Про политиков точно сказал ))
In general, any politcs is a very dirty buisness. It is necessary to separate ordinary people and politicians. In any country. Greetings from Russia with best wishes.
I agree. I am also Canadian and have travelled to Russia. It’s a beautiful country with great people. Of course I also dislike their politics and I am firmly against the war in Ukraine, but as far as the ordinary Russian people go, I really enjoyed my time there.
@@JS-re7ne We can say the same about Canada
As a Swede I was fairly surprised to see the high represententation of Nordic countries and Japan. However I'm sorry to report that the feeling probably isn't reciprocated in the Nordic countries. I have quite strong opinions about the Russian government but I've always liked Russians as a people, as well as their language, so it was definitely a pleasant surprise! I wish all the best for Russia and its people and I hope relations with the west will get better soon.
But then again 83% of russians support putler. And it's not putler personally killing civilians, it's "ordinary" Ruzzians!🤷♂️
Me also but that will largely depend on what happens to Putin. If he stays President, the poor Russian people will remain isolated from the global community. Amazing that 1 man can destroy so much.
@@gustavofring5362 Where did you get that number from? The Kremlin? I can assure you Putin's approval rating is much lower than that.
@@Greksallad From Levada Centers poll. It has always been regarded a pretty trustworthy polling institute. From where did you get your data?
@@gustavofring5362 Well I'm not saying there isn't widespread support for Putin in Russia, just that the 83% figure is extremely unreliable. Approval ratings and other statistics can never be fully trusted when the people being asked risk repercussions. For example, according to the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran, about 99,5% of Iranians are Shia muslims. However when GAMAAN conducted their own poll on the internet where responders could answer completely anonymously, the figure they got was 37%. Now I can't be certain which figure is closer to the truth but I have seen numerous Iranians on the internet saying the 37% figure is most definitely accurate and that most people there don't even like Islam. I don't know how Levada Center conducted their polls but if it was done over the phone, door-to-door or by asking people on the street, I'm actually surprised their figure isn't higher than 83%

The other advantage of having a Kiwi passport is when you travel - no one dislikes you for your country - which is true of many other countries - However no matter you nationality if you travel with a good heart , you will have few problems - I met very nice people in Russia when travelled their in 94 and 97 - so sad what is happening at moment - Eventually things will change - and Russian Society as a collective will mature and that's a win win for everyone - We in NZ had not exactly a great colonial past - suppression of Maori Culture, Overt racism to Chinese immigrants etc - intolerance to people who were different or just paternalistic smugness that came from settlers from the Old World

But you can see the ones who have been here a little longer: They greet you back with gusto, they smile back at you and I think they realise this is *a* reason why they moved down here. And they are welcome here. Everyone's the same here. We use first names and have ditched honourifics. If the second person *singular* pronoun thou (and thee) had remained in colloquial use in modern standard englishes instead of becoming archaic then I believe we Kiwis would be thouing each other constantly no matter who with no offense taken because we really do not have any social betters here to have to you at.
We are so lucky to live here in Godzone yet I think a lot of Kiwis might not realise this until they go travelling on their OEs. 💙

А по нику я бы сказал, что вы любитель Японии
I was in Norway. The local climate seemed very pleasant to me. It was summer and it was not hot, but quite fresh and pleasant. And I just don't like the heat. Oslo turned out to be a small cozy city. Very few cars. Many people ride bicycles. Almost no tall buildings. From the roof of the ten-story hostel where I stayed, I could see the entire city. A big contrast compared to Moscow. But this is not surprising. There are twice as many people in Moscow as in the whole of Norway. There is also a very beautiful memorial cemetery in the city. And people walk there like in a park. And a very clean mountain river with very cold water flows through the city. There are also a lot of beautiful graffiti in the city and people with tattoos are often found. And the Norwegians have very beautiful wheat-colored hair.

I’m surprised about how different people think about life in other countries. For Russians in this video and in general for east European countries the most beautiful places are those where you gain the most (north Europe and Canada). If you ask the same question to west European countries people would answer looking for totally different aspects of life, for example climate, way of living, culture etc.
I think the same. The standard of living is very important especially when you live in a pour country. I really don't care about the beautiful place and environment as long as there is no infrastructure, healthcare or education and the salaries are meager.
I don't agree with the politics in Russia and Putin but ever since I was a child I've been fascinated by Russia, I've always wanted to know the lifestyle of living in Russia and to see how life really is other than how it's portrayed on tv

I've been to 27 countries around the world. I've seen about 300 cities. I lived abroad, though not for long. My personal conclusion is that there is not a single perfect state or city.
This is my subjective opinion.
And at the same time, each country, each place is interesting in its own way.
Only by seeing countries with your own eyes, communicating personally with people of another culture, do you realize that people are the same everywhere. Yes, there are cultural differences, but everyone wants love, family health, good friends, security.
And one more conclusion - the country in which you grew up, where the graves of your ancestors are your inner strength.
As in Russian fairy tales - the strength of the heroic in a handful of native land.

Even there is a very bad situation in Russia right now, would love to visit come day. Love from Italy 🇮🇹
А у нас много людей которые хотят посетить Италию, и я в том числе, у вас хотя бы климат нормальный
Well, all of them look so wholesome. I happy to videos like this humanizes the Russian in these turbulent times.
Wow, you've been working hard, great video as always!
I'd be interested in people talking about mental health, such as depression or anxiety, and how common it is to get medication or therapy for it. Is it easy to get help, or did covid and the sanctions affect it somehow? Is it normal to talk about these things or do people feel that they have to pretend that everything is fine?
Do not confuse us with gentle Europeans who run to a psychologist because of any minor problems =) we do not take it ... drank a bottle of vodka with your best friend and told him about your concerns, he supported you and all the problem is solved =)

Coming from this movie/documentary (with Donald Sutherland ua-cam.com/video/V_Agr2SOaM8/v-deo.html at 59:31) life was kind of dangerous for psychologists in the USSR because everybody was supposedly happy, living in a communist country. So I guess, psychology today is still underdeveloped in the former soviet countries. But maybe someone from a former soviet country comments on it? How was psychology taught and practised back then and today?
I'm from the former Soviet Union too, and my country has a very high rate of suicide, doctors prescribe xanax for everything and we drink a lot too. That's why I'm curious, and also because in previous videos people did touch this topic, but only briefly.
As a medical student, I have learned one truth that the concept of a "healthy person" is not achievable in absolute terms. In our country, many people are afraid of psychologists and psychiatrists, even other medical workers, because there is a fear of running into a layman, a charlatan or getting registered or getting a bad stamp in documents. It is not doubtful whether those who want to receive paid assistance and there are quite a few of them. I believe that every second person on earth has some kind of psychic phenomenon.
A pleasant surprise to actually hear my home country (Germany).
I know a lot of people in Russia who learn german and love your country. German is one of the most popular languages here. We also have a few german villages. People with german ancestry live in them and still speak german.
А по национальности, ты немец?
Я очень люблю Германию и мечтаю там побывать когда-нибудь. Красивые города, приятная атмосфера, добропорядочные люди, удивительная культура, интересный язык.
Надеюсь, когда-нибудь мы сможем стать партнёрами или друзьями 🇩🇪🤝🤍💙🤍
Why so surprised... what an amazing country you have... just absolutely loved my visit (summer 2018) with my whole family @Ernst. And the people were really friendly to us all in every occasion. Those Moselle wineyards and old places are just delightful...
@@ssc00p Well, we had a were troubled past. But it is very common in Germany to not love the own country, so it is suprising people not from Germany do the opposite.
im from poland and i really would like to visit Russia someday . i have many friends from there and i love the vibes
I'm so intrigued by your channel. It's nice to see Russian people and their thoughts.
Let’s appreciate how brave that guy is (3:42),saying that he loves Ukraine, in front of the FSB headquarters in Lubyanka
У нас никому не запрещают любить Украину. Даже возле здания ФСБ.
@@Elizaveta_Chausheva can’t say war though.
Brave to say one loves a brother nation? Bruh
@@МагомедАжуфамунедов В России очень трудно высказывать своё мнение, повязать могут за пустяк
@@michaelruzal3522ну уж точно не за слова о любви к соседней стране.

The most comforting and warm reply was 'Russia' Why? 'Because it is my Homeland.' I am an Englishman and I love this country with a passion. It is in my DNA, my blood, my ancestors. So, that young man who answered 'Russia' I can equate to.
All great answers. I wish I could travel to most of them. I've only been to a few countries in North and South America and the Caribbean. Can't complain, though. No one else in my family has been out of the country since WWII.
Glad you have gone out. Always good to expand your horizons :)
Don't forget that flying to any country in Europe from Moscow is mainly faster that from the east coast to the west coast. Just take a look at the map of Europe. In terms of Japan and Australia - some of the responders said they've never been there. Americans, in general, do not travel much abroad, except some retiries and high income people. My observation. To begin with, we don't have a 4-5 week vacation every year. Plus a lot of people prefer not to take vacation time - they want money to pay their bills.
Caribbean is part of south america too. They speak the same language, follow the same religion and share same history of Spanish colonialism
@@coldplayfan7357 "The islands of the Caribbean (the West Indies) are often regarded as a subregion of North America". Wikipedia and other resources.
As I understand, J. Phillips meant the islands, not some countries in South America that are considered also being "Caribbean" in heritage
I walked out of the border of my country and when I saw people speaking a tongue I cannot comprehend I couldn't take it , truly the russians in the video are speaking the truth no matter how unforgiving your homeland is you will have that feeling of coming back even if you can speak their language.
هل العراق امنه للزيارة ؟ الحقيقة احب العراقيين والعراق ونفسي ازورها بس ماني عارف كيف
@@so9dd553 صديقي العراق آمن بنسبة 100% ونرحب بكل أخوانة وخاصة العرب ونتشرف بيك 💚
I'm Argentine and I hope one day visit Russia to know St. Petersburg and take a trip on the Trans-Siberian train from Moscow to Vladivostok, the city of Vladivostok is very interesting and its surroundings are spectacular.
