      Очень понравился Ваш фильм. Самому захотелось побывать в Самарканде. И как здорово, что Вы смогли посетить те места, где служил Ваш папа. И какие трогательные до слез фото в конце фильма. Жду Ваших новых работ и просто приятно слушать понятно английскую речь русского человека, делающего такие шикарные и простые видео.
      СПАСИБО.

      Great video, as always since you were born with a natural talent and instinct to do this work. You make Uzbekistan and everywhere else look like wonderful destinations. Family pictures are always interesting to see resemblances and differences among family members, and how they change over time. My daughter-in-law is part Puerto Rican and looks like an "average" American. Her older sister looks very Hispanic with very dark skin and totally jet black hair. Her younger brother looks like an Irish leprechaun with pale white skin and bright red hair.

    Hi Eli, this is my first time commenting on your channel, I'm from the USA. As I finished watching, first sorry for the loss of your Dad. By coincidence, today would have been my father's 80th birthday, so it hit me double. I'm only 5 years younger than your Dad and it truly reflects how delicate and fleeting life is. Be safe and enjoy your adventures, live long and happy!

      *Qur'an 3:106:* “On The Day, some faces will turn _white,_ some faces will turn *black.* Those whose faces turn black, Did you disbelieve after your belief? Then taste the punishment for what you rejected."
      *Sahih Muslim 30:5777* “Did you see Allah's Messenger (May Peace Be Upon Him)?
      He said: ‘Yes, he had a WHITE _handsome_ face.’”
      *Sahih Muslim 5:2334* “The Messenger of Allah (May Peace Be Upon Him) says: ''The most hateful among the creation of Allah is one Black man among them.”
      *Ishaq 450* "We brought them to the pit. Hell was their meeting place. We collected them there, Black slaves, men of no descent.”
      *Ishaq 243* "The Apostle (Peace Be Upon Him) says: “Whoever wants to see Satan look at _Nabtal_ (a Black man)"
      *Mishkat al-Masabih 119 book 1 hadith 112* "The Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) said: ‘Allah created Adam when he created him. Then He stroke his right shoulder and took out a White race as if they were seeds, and He stroke his left shoulder and took out a Black race as if they were coals.
      Then He said to those who were in his right side: Towards Paradise and I don't care. He said to those who were on his left shoulder: Towards Hell and I don't care.’"

      The problem is Devil runs the world. He is lier and murderer. This is the reason why deception and violence are everywhere. This is the reason why the whole world is Sodom.
      That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's kingdom. Jehovah would put everything in order. The dead will be resurected and we'll meet our loved ones again! :-)

There is a famous story which a king went to a good weather place and forgot about the capital and the people. Around 8th century, someone ask Rudaki to create poems so the king would feel homesick and comes back to his Palace. I believe that is the most famous set of poems that have survived from him which is about the page.

    One of your most beautiful videos and that´s saying a lot! And a very personal one, too. I have been to Usbekistan some years ago in an organized tour. But what you are showing is even more beautiful than I remember. Thank you for the warmth with which you communicate with people. God bless you!
