Existential Crisis in Too Many Locations
Вставка

- The glimpses of our trip around Georgia with our friend that I filmed a decade ago but edited just now. In this video: robbed gas station, existential crisis, long and I hope not so boring monologue, road trip around Batumi and Svaneti, and a giant portion of egg in the dough 🍞
Thanks for watching! 💛
Locations in the video:
🎡 Batumi - city center
🌳 Botanic Garden of Batumi
🏔️ Svaneti - Mazeri village

Back when you were the “minimalist Russian girl” you gained a sizeable audience just by talking to a camera, people were interested in the things you were sharing. Now maybe you feel a bit of pressure to upload something spectacular each time and that requires a lot of editing, voiceover, etc. You don’t have to do that every time, I think most people who watch you do so because they like YOU (family included) not because they want to watch a videography masterpiece from Armenia or Georgia. You can still talk to a camera for 10 minutes, I think I speak for most people here when I say that we’d rather see how you are doing and your everyday life than pressure you into doing things for the sake of youtube.
Totally!!!!!!!!!
Couldn't agree more 😊
100% !!
Agree 100% ❤ to see and hear about you, your husband and children going about your everyday life!
@marklewis298 yup I agree. She will find her way .
It's OK to need a break. You're a mom of two young, energetic children and have had a ton of life changes in the past year and a half. Take the time you need to give your mind and body a break. ❤
Egg cheese and butter in a bread bowl is my idea of heaven. Thank you for showing how beautiful Georgia is.
khachapuri, the so called national dish of georgia
that did look delicious!!! I wanted to eat with them.
Viktoria, it is said that most serious homesickness and culture shock happens after a year. It's normal. You will get through it. I did. (American in Tbilisi here.) Thanks again for sharing.
That's so interesting. What did make you move to Georgia?
@@peaceandlove3225 It is a very long complicated story. If you watch some of my videos (4 years in Tbilisi part 1) You will get an idea. But basically I was living in America all my life, near San Francisco, in New York City and the many years in Alaska, but I felt it was time to move and I knew I was supposed to move here. It's almost been 5 years now. And I love being here.
Besides my Georgian friends, I have also made Russian friends in the last year. It is a very interesting time here. Thanks for asking. If you have more questions please ask.
Love how you blur out people's faces: it's so considerate ❤
I call these periods in life “lulls.” I’m currently in one now. I don’t know if it’s the rainy weather we’ve been having or something else, but I’ve no motivation to do anything. I’m glad to see a new video from you. I live vicariously through your trips.
I’m in one too. Finding my way in a new season of life. Lacking motivation because, for once, I don’t have a plan or goal. But we will find our way.
This footage was just stunning. You are an excellent photographer and editor! You've had an incredibly busy summer!!! I don't blame you one bit for feeling like a "dead fish." Sometimes I don't know how you do it all! I'm glad you turned off the phone after a while and took time for just you, your family, and friend. Thank you again for your marvelous videos!
Georgia looks so beautiful. Those mountain views towards the end of your video were spectacular. Thanks for capturing these shots for us all to see. Sending love from Scotland 💓
Those mountains reminded me of Scotland! Beautiful.
I think perhaps, given all the changed and the war, relocation, trying to renovate a house, the birth of the baby, so much changes beyond your control is alot!!! Perhaps post partum depression can also set in anytime! We ❤️you and all your videos.
Oh Victoria its always nice to hear from you. Its sounds lile your feeling depressed. Monitor yourself and if it gets worse or lasts longer than 6 weeks , see a Dr. Your video is fantastic. Big hugs fr Canada.
I think she is just tired more than depressed. she is a busy lady. but good advice if it continues.
Be gentle on yourself and your low energy, moving just once can be all exhausting. And I hope the realisation that after rest the passion can return will be continually comforting. :)
Good to see you all - it feels like ages. In the UK we tend to call lack of motivation as Lackadaisical and it is good to be lackadaisical every now and again. You're just doing what you want to do. You just have to look after yourself and do things when you want to do them. Take care. x
In French we call it “passage a vide” (passage or period of emptiness), and “nous avons la flemme” (we have a moment of laziness), not motivated to do anything. I’m so happy to see you again. I wish you to see the end of the war soon. And to return to your homeland, to rebuild a modern and happy, prosperous Russia.
What gorgeous scenery!
I have to say I enjoyed your old videos more; at home, cooking , shopping , and minimalism. Don’t be so hard on yourself; make it easy ❤️
That is a lot of traveling and continued major life changes! It's no wonder you were exhausted. Glad you finally got some rest. Georgia really is a beautiful country.
Beautiful, as always. I love your video styles where you don’t crowd simple scenes with music, but let the small noises of life come through, with just a simple commentary from you. We love you Vika! Take all the time you need to find your rhythms of work and rest.
Yes, Agreed
Real life sounds are so much better than canned music.
I completely understand your feeling. Burning out is real, especially when you are moving around so frequently and never getting a chance to grow accustomed to where you are. It is very tiring on the mind and spirit. Keep your chin up, you are doing great, and your family is wonderful.
Yes, I’ve never heard of people moving so much! It’s expensive & a lot of work.
Nice to hear from you. What happened to the house you were fixing up?
Bitumi is stunning. Thank you for sharing. Always love your videos, no matter what you're up to. Makes me miss when my (now grown with kids of their own), kids were young.
I'm so confused... I thought you were building a life and renovating an old farmhouse... maybe I haven't kept up... the super swift changes in your lives in the past few years have been absolutely jaw dropping... and Amaaaazing how you handled it all, gurrrrrl u set an * International Standard* that ABSOLUTELY CANNOT BE IGNORED! 🤗
I think they still are! Just gonna be a long time before the house is liveable.
You make some beautiful videos. They are sometimes very artful. I hope you continue to find some rest so you can continue to embrace your passion. ❤
Vika, you've been through a lot of life changes these past couple of years and although I absolutely love your videos, I'm glad you took some time to rest and reset.❤ Sending hugs from Ontario Canada. 😘🤗🌷🌿🍀🌻
I love seeing your family together, its so sweet. Also your English is getting so good!
Also Batumi is super cool. I didn't know anything about it and now I want to go.
I was thinking how good VICTORIAS English is now 🌹🌾
@@dollybelledendrobium813it's a cool city! Hello from Poland and my channel 😊
A friend once told me that having a second child is like going from 1 child to 3. Triple the work. A big life change. You are also renovating and moving your household. Very stressful. You will get your mojo back when this all settles down. Thank you for this beautiful video. Georgia is a beautiful country. We are just happy to see your face and hear your thoughts. ❤
So wonderful to see a video from you! Glad you had some time to think and reflect in a beautiful location. That mountain place to stay looks wonderful! Thank you so much for showing us! God bless you and your lovely family. ❤ 👋
Well now I feel that I must visit Georgia ... I have travelled extensively but never to that beautiful place. You photography, videography and narration is perfect.
Very beautiful. I love your videos. You travel to such incredible places. And you take me along with your precious family. Thank you.❤❤ The little ones are getting so big.
Wow! What a beautiful country! Thanks to you and your videos I have discovered a wonderful new world, so far from my native South America. Agatha hugging a tree gives me hope for the future❤🕊🌟 Thank you for sharing beauty and hope 🙏
Im so happy you are all okay. I would love to see you back to the basics. The home life, the cooking, the decluttering and such. All that you really helped others with and seemed to love. ❤❤
Beautiful family! Always so interesting to see your view of the world!
I love that you film the old architecture because I fear it will not be allowed to around much longer….
@glennmartin, true... greetings from Poland and my channel and countryside 😊
Such beautiful scenery!
Georgia is breathtaking. I am glad you shared so much of it with us. One day you will be happy you recorded this (and included yourself!) because these are precious moments that you and your kids will be able to look back on. Not that it’s necessary to record everything! But as someone who rarely photographs myself or what I have been doing, I have forgotten a lot of things.
Enjoy your vacation or trip.
It is Autumn in the state of Missouri, USA. The weather has cooled down and has been if rainy. I have started making comfort food like casseroles and soups and homemade breads.
I’m grateful to see your family and how you are doing in this new area of your life.🌷
It is so wonderful to see you again, Vika! The girls are getting so big! I cannot believe how big Adelaide is now! I know you’re very busy during these times, so it makes sense that you haven’t posted very many things over the summer. I really don’t even know how you do it being a mom and a wife because it’s a lot of work editing videos!😀 regardless, I’m so happy to see you again! Much love from the great lakes US! 💚🩵💛
Adeline* I think but I agree with the rest☺️
@@minime7375 oh thank you for pointing that out! I used voice to text to make that post and often it can be incorrect. 😄
@@ariavril5434hello from Poland and my channel 😊 and countryside 🏡🐕🌞!
Into every life, some rain must fall! Good luck to you Victoria and your beautiful family!
Aw little Agatha has grown so much ❤❤
Beautiful video! Just edit when you have time. Take breaks when you need them! You have been very busy! Hope you enjoy your new apartment! God bless you and your precious family! ❤🙏
My God Victoria! What happened to you? Hope you are doing well! We've been waiting for your vlogs....looking forward to seeing your next vlogs. Wishing you well!
Beautiful scenery! How did you keep your pretty dress so clean? Thank you for sharing, good to see you and family again ❤
I always enjoy your videos...
I love the view of the beautiful Mtns that you all woke up to....
Glad you got some rest after all that fun and moving again, Vika. Blessed be. 💖
The shots of the mountains at the end actually took my breath away.
Wow, what a beautiful place! The mountain cabin had stunning views. I am glad you turned off your camera and just enjoyed it with your family. You deserve some peace and quiet and togetherness.
Absolutely GORGEOUS scenery! Thank you so much for sharing your trip with us, I feel like I've had my own little mini-vacation. We had to move a lot when the children were small, not for the reason that's behind your situation though. Still, moving and traveling and moving and traveling and moving and traveling and moving and traveling is exhausting. I'm glad you're taking some time for yourself. You are a great mom, it shows in the way your babies are at such ease.
Thanks for showing us how beautiful Georgia is and seeing your beautiful family you need to take care of yourself and can’t believe how quickly the children are growing really enjoy the wonderful videos you make 👏🏻👏🏻❤❤
Wow! Baby is no longer a baby! ❤ And looks so much like big sister Agatha. You have a great family, Victoria. Take good care of each other. We will be here for whatever whenever you feel like sharing. ❤
Nice to see you here again! What a beautiful city. Thank you for sharing.😊❤
Children enjoy simple things ❤❤
We love you and we want you to post whatever makes you happy!!!! Please do not feel pressured to release super complicated content. Your life is really amazing and the fact that you have allowed us the opportunity to take a glimpse is truly a blessing!!!! I will forever watch ❤❤
Take your time and do what makes you happiest❤❤
Thanks for sharing all this with us Victoria, it looks amazing. You know for the filming, and wondering what you like to do, and not wanting to do it for some time, I used to get that when I did photography. I think it's like an artist's block. You want to do lots, then you don't want to do it anymore. Then it comes back... and that's ok I guess, this is how creativity works. You have to be "in the zone", and sometimes you just are not. Maybe if you have some reserve ideas for practical videos like your cleaning ones, or renovation ones, or life hacks, they could fill in the times when you don't feel like being more artistic. All the types of videos are enjoyable.
Hi Vika!! What @codysmom6071 said about being interested in YOU and your sweet FAMILY is true. We don’t need to see fabulous views. Sure they’re interesting but we like the simple things like watching you guys hang out together.
On this last video either Adeline or maybe Agatha was reaching for a leaf on the car window. That was so calming, peaceful and sweet.
Hearing your stresses and seeing your new apartment or house is fun or should I say you make it fun.
I think with all the visitors you have had passing through your house and staying one after the other has been a bit much for you.
You probably need some family time.
Your children are gorgeous and we enjoy seeing you guys so don’t stress.
Is anything happening with your house that Tolya was renovating.
I imagine if you’ve had so many people staying you must have needed Tolya at home with all the cooking, washing and the girls.
God bless you sweetheart ❤❤❤❤
How is your house coming along love to see it soon 🐕🌹🌾
Love watching you and your family. My morning dose of calm!!
I'd encourage you not to look at UA-cam as work, but a way to tell your story. That's why I subscribed early on, and what I hope to see as you move through the complicated world. Your kids and husband are cute too. :) Wishing you the best!
Victoria- we enjoy your daily life, the growth of your kids.. be kind to yourself- being a mom, far from family- remodeling a house- trying to create content for viewers- that is exhausting!! Thank you for sharing your life❤
Just sit and talk to us. I love to simply hear your perspective on life in general.
I’m not surprised that you’re wiped out! Since I first found your channel, you’ve moved back to your “first”(?) apartment, left your home country, moved 6(?) times in 18 months, had a 2nd child, bought a house and Toyla started fixing it up…. It’s a lot!!!
Be gentle with your soul, Dearest One. ❤🙏🏼
The water views is beatiful!💙
Vika!!! Such a wonderful video! We see you and Tolya, along with Agata and Adeline and so many beautiful views of your road trip. But also we have your always authentic reflections about yourself and everything happening around you. Thank you for sharing that dear Vika, as you can see this resonates with so many people. Miss you!
Thankyou! For sharing!
So much lush greenery! It's great to see you all again! ❤️
Take care of yourself Vika. Rest is productive!
Finally a new video, i waited that very much. And what a beautiful video, i adore Batumi❤️ It’s on my bucket-list. Thank you showing it😌 I love your videos very much so please come more often- if your battery allows it🥰
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing your trip around Georgia. Mountains are stunningly beautiful 😊
Beautiful scenery!!
Loved hearing your thoughts, loved seeing these images. Your vlogs are just always amazing, you don't have to try at all. I don't know how you find the energy for all the moving and hosting with so many guests and two small kids; I salute you!
Beautiful scenery. ❤
Lovely seeing you all again looks lovely xx
Vika--Life is stressful enough. This is your release valve. I follow you and a few others because you visit places that I cannot--even if it's your nearby park, it is NOT near me. It is something new and beautiful to view. I sighed out loud when I saw that rushing water. And those mountains!!! What a thrill to have stayed where you did. To be honest, even watching Toyla doing the renovation, speaking your native language, all of it--I love it all! 😊❤❤❤❤
Loved the video V! You are amazing on every single way❤
Wonderful video!! Thank you for sharing
Beautiful video! ❤
A lovely video, thank you.
Good to see your vlog! Life gets pretty busy with 2 children and entertaining. The scenery is beautiful. God Bless
Lovely scenery.
Wow, both of these places look beautiful! Georgia and Armenia and the 'Stans' have been on my bucket list for awhile, and I'm doubly convinced after watching this!
Beautiful video! The scenery is awesome!
Really beautiful scenery! Thank you for sharing!
Miss you !! Glad to see your back!
Unbelievably gorgeous scenery ❤
Si beautiful thank you Victoria ❤
