Great video! We all have ups and downs. You are a very busy city woman. Do not let others get in the way of your goals. You seem like an amazing woman.
Although you are right about Tim Burton's film with Johnny Depp and Christina Ricci, Sleepy Hollow appeared on the cultural map of the USA earlier. In fact, it is related to a fairly early stage of the development of American literature in the USA, and specifically to the genre of gothic stories/gothic horror typical of the Romantic period. The reason is that Washington Irving's short story "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" was published in 1820 (when the USA was still a relatively new country). It was a sign that this new state and its society was creating its own culture at the same time in connection with the cultural and literary currents of the West, i.e. Europe at that time. And it's good to see you with Dash's new vlog. Good luck. Regards.
I studied Irving in college. I hadn't read him before and I enjoyed his stories. They're actually really accessible for that time period (seemed that way to me) I wrote a short story about Legend of Sleepy Hollow for a school assignment. We were to pick a story and write from a different POV. One of the best assignments ever. So fun. (I should go find that story....) I think I was from Katrina's POV.
I’m a little late in seeing this. Your hike was in such a beautiful place! It reminds me of my younger years in Chicago, when I used to go on autumn hikes at Starved Rock State Park. There is nothing better than a hike in the woods.
I am really sorry that you are encountering anxiety and depression. You are a brave young woman and I admire you exposing your life on the internet like this. It's very personal and I am sensitive to that. Don't worry,you are not alone🙏❣️
Thank you for showing the beauty. So many people pay attention to fear mongering news and have negative opinions of New York. When, in reality, it’s a beautiful state, and an amazing city!
I really enjoyed your video, Dasha! I understand as busy as you are you can't post as often, but it's missed. Your life is your business and you share little glimpses here of your choosing. I can assure you we all have our struggles though. You've come so far and done so well with your dreams so far. Try to keep your chin up and know many of us are cheering you on. 💜🤙
I’m happy for you that you’re in New York with friends from Russia and here. Anxiety is something I’ve had since I was a teenager and it can become debilitating panic attacks etc. I’m glad you’re out living your life. You’re amazing in many ways, I appreciate the videos, keep them coming. Not sure if that is in Jersey but they have a lot of money in some of those areas. Probably a great Halloween experience.
I'm glad to see your studies are going well and that you are enjoying your life in New York. I am looking forward to see more of the city and surroundings in your next videos. Thanks for the video Dari, good job!
Wait until you see the Thanksgiving day parade. It is unbelievable. People come from all of the country to participate. And the giant balloons are amazing.
Hello Dari! I’m so pleased to see you enjoying yourself so much. I’m especially happy to see that you visited Sleepy Hollow. It looked like such a fantastic visit to celebrate Halloween with your friends. As for fear of mass shooting, I know it’s in the back of my mind nowadays, but I’m determined to live my life as best I can without fearing every potential risk to life and limb. Finally, about those times when anxiety takes grip, I’m very glad to hear you were able to get through it with the company of your friends. There is so much going for you, all due to your hard work and willingness to take risks. There’s a reason I follow your channel, your adventures inspire me and entertain me. I don’t even know you, and you contribute positivity to my life. In such a crazy, topsy-turvy world, you making it just a little better with your videos, well, I think that’s a pretty big deal what you do. Keep it up!!!!
Dari, Your videos are so interesting, but mostly I'm pleased that you are being enriched by being a student and learning in the USA. Accounting courses can be very difficult. They always told me "not to drop your pencil", meaning you could miss something when stopping to pick up the pencil. Funny! Congratulations on your test score of 88%. That is a B, and OK. The small town you saw in NY with all the decorations is replicated many times in America. The homes you saw would be upper-middle class in the US, and not ultra-rich, but very nice. Many Americans have the pleasure of this lifestyle! Enjoy your stay and studies, as it may be hard to return to Russia (as I've viewed so many places outside of Moscow and St. Petersburg.) Cheers!
I too realize that if I'm anxious about something I need to do, I won't be able to rest - not even on Sunday, so I just do the work. The expectations vary widely, so I'm never bored.
Fabulous video! Fabulous views! Exciting adventure! We are happy you got to enjoy Halloween American-style, Daria. For many like me, it’s our favorite holiday. You are such a stylish dresser. I love those VESSI clothes. Never heard of them. I’ve told you before that you look like a model. I hope that many people back in Russia see your videos. Though America does indeed have serious problems, we certainly value or freedom, and like you and your friends, we love to travel and enjoy life. It just dawned on me that you, Daria, are probably the best ambassador that Russia has. Many Americans like me want to have friendly and open relations with Russia, but, as you know, a certain leader seems to be taking your beautiful country back to the Dark Ages. You could be a bridge between our countries, like the Bridge of Peace in Tblisi.
When I studied accounting, I noticed that those who had the most trouble with it were the ones who tried to 'understand' it, tried to get it to make sense. I found it easy, and it may have been because I approached it differently. I looked at it as I would a game, learn the rules and practice. as you learn and practice more, it eventually comes together. Remember that accounting is not about laws of nature, it's an artificial construct that is just a tool to organize information. Hope this helps.
What I think is not helpful are the volume of text that give instructions. I think if instructors pick the right videos for each section, it would help students grasp the subject better. And now they have UA-cam, an incredible platform for education. I wish someone taught me your advice when I was learning it
Hi Dasha, Great video! It's your best one yet. Congrats on your 88 on midterms! That's a difficult course, and your hard work has paid off. Keep it up! I'm glad you're taking in the city and getting out to see the "real America." Sleepy Hollow at Halloween looks amazing. You should definitely go to the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. It's a unique American tradition that you'll never forget. Your drone footage of the park is amazing. You're really getting good at taking and editing videos. It was a pleasure to meet your friends from Russia. We're happy to host you all and hope you enjoy your time in the US. It's great to see you all making the most of it. I recommend not watching the news every day. They tend to focus on negative things. Instead, find a few centrist news websites that aren't politically biased and get your news from there. Finally, I'm on my second pair of Vessi's. I love them, especially in the spring and fall when it's wet weather. I don't wear them much in the hot summer days, though. I highly recommend them to all your viewers.
You ARE overthinking fear of shootings, almost to the point of a nightmare. The chances of anything bad happening are one in the many millions. Just chill out and enjoy the States. Welcome to your new home. It's great to have you here with us. Relax. Everything is going to be just fine. I've never seen Sleepy Hollow, just read about it in the classic Washington Irving story. Loved that whole segment.
With all of the anger and craziness in the world right now, I would be worried about attending big gatherings. But you are correct that the odds of danger are much lower than the news makes it seem.
Dari, what an very enjoyable video! It is great to see the sights of New York from a new perspective. Please don't let it wear off! Also, don't get detoured from seeing the sights, just because of shootings and what you hear/see on the news. It's always a thought in the back of my mind and everyone else's mind. Try not to let it spoil your plans! That was pretty cool visiting Sleepy Hollow during Halloween. I really love this time of year. Glad you are loving this as well. And yes, we are all shocked at the nice weather during this time of the season. But I take what we get before the snow arrives! Speaking of Anxiety, this is one thing that can stress you out and change your great personality forever. When your experiencing these feelings, just remember: You are Braver than you Believe, Stronger than you Seem, and Smarter than you Think! Never give your friends up. Never shut the world out. Hey, Life is journey, make the right choices and do your best (Hard work pays off).
You are a gem. So real. Hope you reach 100K+ subscribers soon. You deserve more than a million. Best of luck to you. Thank you for sharing your life experiences.
The snake decided to come out and say "Happy Halloween!". Great video. Good to see that you are enjoying the big apple life. And i must say, you completely fit the look of the brand.
The snake wants to see her new shoes. If it's a copperhead snake, it's venomous. It likes to slither in fallen leaves and debris. If the snake bites me and I die because of that, it's a venomous snake. If I eat the snake and I die because of that, it's a poisonous snake. Snakes figured prominently in my family's lineage story and curses.
Wow, the scenery at that Park was beautiful! The amazing fall leaf colors made it extra special. In regard to public shootings, just because something can happen doesn't mean that it will. The likelihood/probability of it happening is actually quite low. The news media always tries to hype it up because it grabs public attention and makes them money. The parade and the Halloween decorations were wonderful to see. You do such a great job in filming and editing your videos! Congratulations on the excellent exam grade!
More nice outings with friends with fun content, glad it helps to take these breaks from studies and well - congratulations on another top result! :) Denmark has been celebrating Halloween since the 90s but mainly in shopping centres, pubs and bars so not as widespread or well-developed as the US.
Dari, you need to be very proud of yourself! A score of 88 is a B+ in a subject that is one of the most difficult subjects to study! If you decide to become a CPA the test is one of the most difficult tests in the country! I love your adventures in New York since I was born there and it is nice to experience it through someone’s else’s eyes! Love your videos!🙂
Dari, I'm so happy that you got to experience the legend of the "Headless Horseman" at Sleepy Hollow! I took my daughter to there from Texas two years ago and we had an amazing time.
Nice video. I like the aerial views and Sleepy Hallow. I read about it in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow featuring Ichabod Crane, yet have never visited there so thank you for filming it. Sorry you suffered anxiety. I'll pray for your peace that surpasses human understanding. And finally, I'm glad you took us into that dog shop - reminds me of Lucky! ❤
You need to visit Philadelphia. Quick train ride or short drive from NYC. Great city - historic sites, great museums, great food, architecture and much more. I’d love to see your perspective of the Birthplace of America. Next Halloween you need to go to Eastern State Penitentiary. Best haunted show in the country. Check it out
3:30 i think about it often i am mindful and aware of bad things in life and you are not overthinking i wonder why you would think you'd be over thinking
Fall season is so nice on east coast with all the leaves and I didn't kno they don't have Halloween in Russia they probably have ones that we don't have here and congratulations on your school exploits so much hard work is paying off thanks for sharing
Dari, your video's are amazing! Very interesting and so much fun to watch! Happy that you were able to get outside and enjoy the weather. I think that there are time's when we all have those day's where we just don't feel like ourselves. For me, when I get out and have my friends and family around is when I snap out of it. I also understand how you feel about being afraid of gun violence. I think alot of people feel the same way as you. Thank you Dari! Enjoyed this video very much! Take care, be safe and many blessings.🙏❤😊
As far as violence in US can happen anywhere you know that well saw it in one of your videos. Just stay vigilant and aware of your surroundings. Wait till Christmas parades Thanksgiving parade and of course 4th of July. Enjoy life I spent 2 years in Spain as a young man I understand you will miss your family and friends but you will make your way back eventually. Enjoying your videos thank you.
Excellent video Dari with lots of variety in it. All of the places and things that you put into this video all looked amazing. Hang in there with the Accounting and please try to get out more with friends because it will help you manage stress and anxiety. Onwards and upwards and really looking forward to your next video.
This video was great. I loved it. I'm 74 and live in the Hudson Valley. I didn't even know that Sleepy Hollow has such a big parade on Halloween. I've been there a few times and saw Washington Irving's home. Kinda interesting. Cemeteries in the NE, which were begun in the late 1800's, all look like the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery. Cemeteries from the 1700's have simple white marble headstones. As you go west from the coast, everything is younger and younger. The East has the oldest houses, churches, etc, especially Boston, Charleston, and Philadelphia. You looked like a model in those new shoes and hoodie. Very nice.
Hi Dari Glad you are doing well, I know it's difficult to be away for so long after you've been moving from country to country every few months or so, I hope you don't stress too much. Glad you had a good time experiencing Halloween. Can't wait to see your reaction to Thanksgiving ang the Thanksgiving Day Parade Cheers 👋👋😁
You are so adorable. Thanks for sharing. BTW: On the drones... perspective matters. From one perspective the drones may have been forming recognizable patterns such as animals or text. But from other angles it would look like a random mess. It's a 3D point cloud and your brain sees an image based on where you are located. Others, 90 degrees offset, will see something totally different.
This was another great video. Thanks for showing the temperature in Fahrenheit, whenever you mention it in Celsius. It is a small thing, but I want you to know that I appreciate it.
No, you are not alone in your concerns about guns and I'm an American. I can only vote accordingly.and pray these laws are changed in the next elections
@DariStep I'm not sure if you're familiar with the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade in NYC, it's totally next level, the largest and most famous parade in the world. It's been held since 1924. I hope.will be able to attend and share a vlog with us!
You are _definitely_ not the only one who is nervous about gun violence in the US. In contrast, since arriving in Vilnius, I haven't even considered gun violence.
New York was one of the safest big cities in the US from about 2009-2020 and got a little more dangerous after that. Some credit Bloomberg for those years. Because it fluctuates different people have different stories / memories. The best thing to do is to be street smart. Don’t be a target. Being street smart doesn’t mean acting tough or being mean or pretending everyone is out to get you. Be yourself, and learn off the street, from the city itself. As you do. You’ll be ok. Be careful in the subway. And get that house Geko $14 from pet smart. It will be a good friend.
I honestly don't think about shootings at all... perhaps it's different in a big city. As long as I don't go to the bad parts of town (and don't walk alone at night) I feel pretty safe. Mostly there is just some petty crimes sometimes in my neighborhood like stealing packages etc. I'm trying to think of a time I was scared to be shot...I can't think of one. I've had a couple scary experiences with other things but not in this town (once in the country nearby that was the scariest). Gun violence may be more prevalent other places. When mass shootings happen they make the news because they're big. I only remember a couple lone shootings in this town in many years. More often injuries are fights or stabbing. Only time I saw violence almost directly is when in the town I used to live in (smaller than this) mom saw a guy that was stabbed on the side of the road and used her first aid training to help him. I was 10 then.
This is excellent video Dari l like the hiking and Sleeping Hallow which l did not know it was in New York l only know Sleeping Hallow in the film about the headless horseman. The trees are lovely in the Fall but here in the U.K. we call it Autumn. Look forward to your next video.
I am very happy Dari that you are fine in New York and that you have so many friends to share this fantastic adventure and that you are going to form this Russian community. Great idea indeed. Congrats for your exams, you are really an excellent student, a great resource! You are a fantastic youtuber and we love you very much. Thank you for sharing and take care💙💚❤️
Dari, it is a joy to watch you and your friends enjoy college and other wonderful life experiences. We look forward to seeing many more videos of happy times for you and your crew in NYC and elsewhere in the US!!
I think someone is home-sick, missing Moscow deep down. I had similar feelings in my first few weeks living away from home, and that was all in the UK. As you get more familiar with New York, it will begin to feel like home. Pleased you like the High Line. It is a 'must visit' place when ever my daughter goes to New York.
@@DariStep , But poster makes a good point, because u could miss family and pets on a subconscious level. Anyway, hopefully you get to do some video chats with them now and again.
Thank you Dasha. I've missed you and your videos.I enjoyed this video very very much. Fall in the North Eastern United States is wonderful. Beautiful places and interesting sites to see. Keep working hard Dasha, and keep seeing your friends! You are in my thoughts and prayers Dasha. God bless
Sleepy Hollow is the site of the legend of Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman. Disney made a short Cartoon about it. ua-cam.com/video/CdZ1Y92eVfM/v-deo.html Evidently there was a full movie made. ua-cam.com/video/KEY-aQW0NXo/v-deo.html Sleepy Hollow is kind of the gateway to the Catskill Mountains. Route 17 is one of the most picturesque drives. The mountains are very beautiful and it was a popular resort area many decades ago. Further north between Albany and the Canadian border are the Adirondack mountains, also a vacation area. The entire region was once populated by the Dutch and many of the names of places are Dutch. New York City was originally called New Amsterdam. There are many legends about the Catskills such as Rip Van Winkle.
I've been watching your videos for a while now, about a year and I have confidence in you. You'll be alright. Spend time with your friends and find some doggies in Central park to spend time with. Dogs are the best.
Wow ! Thank you for sharing your adventure in NY! May I suggest you go to Hollywood next so that you can become a glamorous movie star! You are so pretty!!
Dari I loved this vlog so much, it’s making me want to visit the us during autumn 🍂 I hope whatever is causing you stress and anxiety goes away, love from Australia ❤
Congratulations on becoming a brand ambassador, Dari! The Philippines was an American colony just shy of 50 years and the Halloween thing didn’t really catch on. It’s more of a commercial event than anything else. We have more commonality with México’s Día de los Muertos, given our history with Spain. November 1-2 for the country is a national religious holiday. Your Russian squad needs a name: тетушки or something. 😁
Sleepy Hollow is famous for one thing, and it's neither of the two things Dari mentioned. It was made famous by the 1820 short story "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" by Washington Irving. The little "houses" in cemeteries are called mausoleums.
Dari it’s really wonderful that you’re enjoying America at it’s best you are a beautiful well mannered woman and I really enjoy your videos keep up the great work you are really a shining light in these difficult times in the world God Bless you
I'm glad to see that you enjoyed the Halloween decorations and the whole Halloween experience. The tickets on the Metro North Railroad are much more expensive than are the tickets on our suburban commuter railroad in Chicagoland named Metra for traveling a similar distance. So you'll probably find public transit to be cheaper in most other cities you travel to in the USA. The elevated trains in Chicago also have heaters on the outdoor waiting platforms where you push the button for heat but it only works during November through March.
It is good you didn't go to Syracuse Univ. They just got hit by a big snowstorm and another is coming for the weekend. Big difference in weather in NYC and upstate NY. I grew up 40 miles east of Syracuse. I would never move back. I am here, 70 miles north of NYC, just south of Poughkeepsie. Going bike riding tomorrow. Going to be a bit cold, but I can layer up and be OK. Not in upstate NY.
@@DariStep I later found a site with snow totals, and the city of Syracuse got 6 inches, but the further north you went, up to Lake Ontario, it got worse and worse. Right next to the lake, one place had 43 inches. It's called Lake Effects Snow. The warm moist air hits the cold dry air and snow falls. It can drop snow hundreds of miles away, all the way to Albany. I know, I traveled in it on the Thruway many Christmases. I would come up from the south, then travel west at Albany. All the way from Albany to Clinton, near Utica, there could be heavy snow. One time it was so bad, I was in a white out. That is when you can;t see anything but white. It happened for about 30 sec. near Utica. When I could finally see, I was still on the road, but there were numerous cars off the road for the next few miles. My brother used to travel to Buffalo from Plattsburgh every Thanksgiving and Christmas. to his wife's parents. Eventually, they stopped doing that and would go in early Novenber to avoid the snow.. Growing up in Clinton, we thought all of this was normal.
What a lovely video! You made it to so many of my favorite places. It’s good that you and your friends are enjoying all that NY has to offer: the city, nature, small towns, etc. Keep up the good work in school. Congratulations on your accounting grade. That’s not easy to do!
I’m so happy you had a Fantastic Halloween, next year I hope you get to explore some more locations for The Halloween Season, the channel Carpetbagger has a great selection of locations he went to this year, some great suggestions to check out especially for The Christmas Season. For Thanksgiving that is a great time to be with friends, all of you could prepare and share a meal together. As for New Year’s Eve, New York is absolute pandemonium, I would suggest starting out small like a private get together, as it is terribly cold that night and there are lots of crowds, it gets pretty rowdy. If you like to Ski, I would suggest the Western States, like Idaho, Utah or Colorado. Not as expensive as the East Coast, and it rains a lot less. The Airports are packed during this time of year, so be ready for delays in travel. Thank You for the videos 👍
02:50 In Budapest on August 20, on the occasion of the founding of the Hungarian state (AD 1001), several figures were formed from drones during the fireworks display. Also three-dimensional figures.
Thank you for sharing your video with us. The celebration of Halloween in New York is truly fabulous. I am also happy that relations between Russia and the USA 🇺🇸 are normalizing. I know there are many young Russians who would like to visit the United States. Regarding your anxiety, you should consult at the University because they have a lot of resources to help you overcome your anxieties. They can also refer you to an outside psychologist. Anxieties are excessive emotions of the survival instinct. Anxieties signal imminent danger but in reality this danger is not real. A lot of these anxieties, in my opinion, are due to the fact that we don't know our bodies well enough. I assume that a student in medicine would never have such anxieties. We are simply afraid of what we do not know. The anxiety will disappear when you are convinced that this fear is not realistic and that the danger does not exist. Waiting to consult, keep doing your things normally and remain optimistic. Wish you the best.
Halloween and St Patrick's' day started to catch on in the larger cities in Russia during the early 2000's, but, were frowned upon by the Orthodox Church in Russian since the Eastern church did not recognize those Saint and pressure was put on to stop those festivities.
“My expectations are my problem “ - one of the wisest things you’ve ever said. Thanks for all your videos. You are a shining light in my life
Wow, thank you!
Ambrose Bierce said it best in his 'Devils Dictionary',,, a CYNIC is someone who sees things as they 'are' and not how they should be.
I can't believe it, I marched in that Sleepy Hollow parade! That's the beginning of my drum corps at 18:58!
Omg!
Your videos giving a Russian perspective on life in NYC are most insightful.
Thanks!
Please continue with your videos! We all need you to brighten our day! God Bless!
Thank you, for me being able to see life through your thoughts, your eyes!!
Great video!
We all have ups and downs. You are a very busy city woman. Do not let others get in the way of your goals.
You seem like an amazing woman.
Thank you so much!
Great video Dasha. It's so nice to see you settled into life in New York.
Thank you!! 😊
HAPPY SAINT LUKA to all Christians on the chat and HAPPY HALLOWEEN to all people who celebrate it. I like BOTH.

It is. I've always loved my visits. Both city and upstate.
Always such a pleasure to see a new video from you. Thank you for sharing your life activities with us. 🙂🤠
My pleasure!
Great to see you are staying busy and enjoying your time in America.
Welcome back! You were missed!
I really enjoyed your video, Dasha! I understand as busy as you are you can't post as often, but it's missed.
Your life is your business and you share little glimpses here of your choosing. I can assure you we all have our struggles though. You've come so far and done so well with your dreams so far. Try to keep your chin up and know many of us are cheering you on. 💜🤙
I like the Vessi clothes that you are wearing Dasha. This is a charming video,thank you.
I'm glad you like it 😊
I’m happy for you that you’re in New York with friends from Russia and here. Anxiety is something I’ve had since I was a teenager and it can become debilitating panic attacks etc. I’m glad you’re out living your life. You’re amazing in many ways, I appreciate the videos, keep them coming. Not sure if that is in Jersey but they have a lot of money in some of those areas. Probably a great Halloween experience.
Thank you!
So much brains and beauty at one table 😮
You have a wonderful core group of friends. I'm glad all of you are having a good time. I like this video.😊❤
I'm glad to see your studies are going well and that you are enjoying your life in New York. I am looking forward to see more of the city and surroundings in your next videos. Thanks for the video Dari, good job!
More to come!
Thank you so much, Dasha, for another interesting video! Great to see you flourishing in New York! ❤
You are so welcome!
Wait until you see the Thanksgiving day parade. It is unbelievable. People come from all of the country to participate. And the giant balloons are amazing.
Can’t wait!

Thank you so much for such kind words ✨😭
Hi Dari! Another professionally assembled Vlog. Thank you for sharing your time with us, I wish you happiness and success going forward. ❤
Thank you so much!
Dari, Your videos are so interesting, but mostly I'm pleased that you are being enriched by being a student and learning in the USA. Accounting courses can be very difficult. They always told me "not to drop your pencil", meaning you could miss something when stopping to pick up the pencil. Funny! Congratulations on your test score of 88%. That is a B, and OK. The small town you saw in NY with all the decorations is replicated many times in America. The homes you saw would be upper-middle class in the US, and not ultra-rich, but very nice. Many Americans have the pleasure of this lifestyle! Enjoy your stay and studies, as it may be hard to return to Russia (as I've viewed so many places outside of Moscow and St. Petersburg.) Cheers!
Thank you ☺️
Wait until you see the Christmas decorations! 😄☃️❄️🎄🎁
Can't wait!
I too realize that if I'm anxious about something I need to do, I won't be able to rest - not even on Sunday, so I just do the work. The expectations vary widely, so I'm never bored.
Very entertaining Dari, lots of variety. 👏
Thank you! 😃
Great video! You are becoming quite the videographer! 🙂
Thanks! 😃

Remember that accounting is not about laws of nature, it's an artificial construct that is just a tool to organize information.
Hope this helps.
What I think is not helpful are the volume of text that give instructions. I think if instructors pick the right videos for each section, it would help students grasp the subject better. And now they have UA-cam, an incredible platform for education. I wish someone taught me your advice when I was learning it
5 Star a video as usual. Great video, always enjoy watching and learning where you go and what you see. Very informative. 😎
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
You are doing great. Don't worry about the anxiety. Just keep facing it. It will go away in time.
Great video as always.❤
Thank you 😊
Hi Dasha,
Great video! It's your best one yet.
Congrats on your 88 on midterms! That's a difficult course, and your hard work has paid off. Keep it up!
I'm glad you're taking in the city and getting out to see the "real America." Sleepy Hollow at Halloween looks amazing. You should definitely go to the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. It's a unique American tradition that you'll never forget.
Your drone footage of the park is amazing. You're really getting good at taking and editing videos.
It was a pleasure to meet your friends from Russia. We're happy to host you all and hope you enjoy your time in the US. It's great to see you all making the most of it.
I recommend not watching the news every day. They tend to focus on negative things. Instead, find a few centrist news websites that aren't politically biased and get your news from there.
Finally, I'm on my second pair of Vessi's. I love them, especially in the spring and fall when it's wet weather. I don't wear them much in the hot summer days, though. I highly recommend them to all your viewers.
Thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts ☺️
So sorry about your anxiety. I wish you the best. 🫂
❤️❤️❤️
You ARE overthinking fear of shootings, almost to the point of a nightmare. The chances of anything bad happening are one in the many millions. Just chill out and enjoy the States. Welcome to your new home. It's great to have you here with us. Relax. Everything is going to be just fine. I've never seen Sleepy Hollow, just read about it in the classic Washington Irving story. Loved that whole segment.
With all of the anger and craziness in the world right now, I would be worried about attending big gatherings. But you are correct that the odds of danger are much lower than the news makes it seem.
please do research on mass shootings look it up its more than the news shows
@@dsmj7389please do research on mass shootings look it up its more than the news shows
Dari, what an very enjoyable video! It is great to see the sights of New York from a new perspective. Please don't let it wear off! Also, don't get detoured from seeing the sights, just because of shootings and what you hear/see on the news. It's always a thought in the back of my mind and everyone else's mind. Try not to let it spoil your plans! That was pretty cool visiting Sleepy Hollow during Halloween. I really love this time of year. Glad you are loving this as well. And yes, we are all shocked at the nice weather during this time of the season. But I take what we get before the snow arrives!
Speaking of Anxiety, this is one thing that can stress you out and change your great personality forever. When your experiencing these feelings, just remember: You are Braver than you Believe, Stronger than you Seem, and Smarter than you Think! Never give your friends up. Never shut the world out. Hey, Life is journey, make the right choices and do your best (Hard work pays off).
Thank you so much ✨
You are a gem. So real. Hope you reach 100K+ subscribers soon. You deserve more than a million. Best of luck to you. Thank you for sharing your life experiences.
Thank you so much ☺️
Looved the video! such a wonderful experience in that town
Glad you enjoyed it! 🥰
ahh ms step it always brings a warm feeling to see your happy smiley personality. great too see things going well
When Dari smiles I most definitely must smile too.
The snake decided to come out and say "Happy Halloween!".
Great video. Good to see that you are enjoying the big apple life. And i must say, you completely fit the look of the brand.
The snake wants to see her new shoes.
If it's a copperhead snake, it's venomous. It likes to slither in fallen leaves and debris. If the snake bites me and I die because of that, it's a venomous snake. If I eat the snake and I die because of that, it's a poisonous snake.
Snakes figured prominently in my family's lineage story and curses.
Wow, the scenery at that Park was beautiful! The amazing fall leaf colors made it extra special.
In regard to public shootings, just because something can happen doesn't mean that it will. The likelihood/probability of it happening is actually quite low. The news media always tries to hype it up because it grabs public attention and makes them money.
The parade and the Halloween decorations were wonderful to see. You do such a great job in filming and editing your videos!
Congratulations on the excellent exam grade!
Well said William! 👍
Thank you!
More nice outings with friends with fun content, glad it helps to take these breaks from studies and well - congratulations on another top result! :)
Denmark has been celebrating Halloween since the 90s but mainly in shopping centres, pubs and bars so not as widespread or well-developed as the US.
Thanks for sharing :)
Dari, you need to be very proud of yourself! A score of 88 is a B+ in a subject that is one of the most difficult subjects to study! If you decide to become a CPA the test is one of the most difficult tests in the country! I love your adventures in New York since I was born there and it is nice to experience it through someone’s else’s eyes! Love your videos!🙂
Wow, thank you! 🙌🏼
Dari, I'm so happy that you got to experience the legend of the "Headless Horseman" at Sleepy Hollow! I took my daughter to there from Texas two years ago and we had an amazing time.
Ohhh I bet!
Hi Dari,great video full of every thing interesting and enjoyable ,pleased your doing great in your exams and your looking great,take care ,stay safe
Thank you! 😃
Loved your tour of
Sleepy Hollow !!
I’ve never been there , myself!!!
Glad you enjoyed ;)
Hope you are feeling better. Take care
Great video Dari! Loved it. We love you Dari, be well and take care of yourself.
Thank you! You too!
Nice video. I like the aerial views and Sleepy Hallow. I read about it in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow featuring Ichabod Crane, yet have never visited there so thank you for filming it. Sorry you suffered anxiety. I'll pray for your peace that surpasses human understanding. And finally, I'm glad you took us into that dog shop - reminds me of Lucky! ❤
Thanks Chinh!
You need to visit Philadelphia. Quick train ride or short drive from NYC. Great city - historic sites, great museums, great food, architecture and much more. I’d love to see your perspective of the Birthplace of America.
Next Halloween you need to go to Eastern State Penitentiary. Best haunted show in the country. Check it out
Will do 🙌🏼
@@DariStep you have to try the cheesesteak at Angelo’s! The best!
I love seeing America through your eyes. Great job!
Eastern State Penitentiary is very cool anytime of the year. Yes it's amazing at night for Halloween.
3:30 i think about it often i am mindful and aware of bad things in life and you are not overthinking i wonder why you would think you'd be over thinking
Fall season is so nice on east coast with all the leaves and I didn't kno they don't have Halloween in Russia they probably have ones that we don't have here and congratulations on your school exploits so much hard work is paying off thanks for sharing
Thank you :)
Great Halloween decorations and beautiful park!
Dari, your video's are amazing! Very interesting and so much fun to watch! Happy that you were able to get outside and enjoy the weather. I think that there are time's when we all have those day's where we just don't feel like ourselves. For me, when I get out and have my friends and family around is when I snap out of it. I also understand how you feel about being afraid of gun violence. I think alot of people feel the same way as you. Thank you Dari! Enjoyed this video very much! Take care, be safe and many blessings.🙏❤😊
Thank you!!!
@@DariStep ❤️❤️❤️❣️😊
I loved this! -Great job! (It's interesting to me that, somehow, NYC looks like other city!?!?)
It is!
As far as violence in US can happen anywhere you know that well saw it in one of your videos. Just stay vigilant and aware of your surroundings. Wait till Christmas parades Thanksgiving parade and of course 4th of July. Enjoy life I spent 2 years in Spain as a young man I understand you will miss your family and friends but you will make your way back eventually. Enjoying your videos thank you.
Excellent video Dari with lots of variety in it. All of the places and things that you put into this video all looked amazing. Hang in there with the Accounting and please try to get out more with friends because it will help you manage stress and anxiety. Onwards and upwards and really looking forward to your next video.
Thanks Darell ☺️
This video was great. I loved it. I'm 74 and live in the Hudson Valley. I didn't even know that Sleepy Hollow has such a big parade on Halloween. I've been there a few times and saw Washington Irving's home. Kinda interesting. Cemeteries in the NE, which were begun in the late 1800's, all look like the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery. Cemeteries from the 1700's have simple white marble headstones. As you go west from the coast, everything is younger and younger. The East has the oldest houses, churches, etc, especially Boston, Charleston, and Philadelphia. You looked like a model in those new shoes and hoodie. Very nice.
Hi Dari
Glad you are doing well, I know it's difficult to be away for so long after you've been moving from country to country every few months or so, I hope you don't stress too much.
Glad you had a good time experiencing Halloween. Can't wait to see your reaction to Thanksgiving ang the Thanksgiving Day Parade
Cheers
👋👋😁
Dari, you really need to visit Florida and what it has to offer.
You are so adorable. Thanks for sharing. BTW: On the drones... perspective matters. From one perspective the drones may have been forming recognizable patterns such as animals or text. But from other angles it would look like a random mess. It's a 3D point cloud and your brain sees an image based on where you are located. Others, 90 degrees offset, will see something totally different.
This was another great video. Thanks for showing the temperature in Fahrenheit, whenever you mention it in Celsius. It is a small thing, but I want you to know that I appreciate it.
Glad to hear it’
No, you are not alone in your concerns about guns and I'm an American. I can only vote accordingly.and pray these laws are changed in the next elections
Thanks for sharing!
@DariStep I'm not sure if you're familiar with the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade in NYC, it's totally next level, the largest and most famous parade in the world. It's been held since 1924. I hope.will be able to attend and share a vlog with us!
You are _definitely_ not the only one who is nervous about gun violence in the US. In contrast, since arriving in Vilnius, I haven't even considered gun violence.
Dari ... each semester will get just a bit easier...Your are doing just fine...💕🍻
Hopefully 🤞🏼
Christmas lights coming soon 😊
New York was one of the safest big cities in the US from about 2009-2020 and got a little more dangerous after that.
Some credit Bloomberg for those years.
Because it fluctuates different people have different stories / memories.
The best thing to do is to be street smart. Don’t be a target.
Being street smart doesn’t mean acting tough or being mean or pretending everyone is out to get you. Be yourself, and learn off the street, from the city itself. As you do. You’ll be ok.
Be careful in the subway.
And get that house Geko $14 from pet smart. It will be a good friend.
Your videos are always very well put together, can’t wait to see what you end up doing for Thanksgiving.
Thanks so much!
I honestly don't think about shootings at all... perhaps it's different in a big city. As long as I don't go to the bad parts of town (and don't walk alone at night) I feel pretty safe. Mostly there is just some petty crimes sometimes in my neighborhood like stealing packages etc. I'm trying to think of a time I was scared to be shot...I can't think of one. I've had a couple scary experiences with other things but not in this town (once in the country nearby that was the scariest). Gun violence may be more prevalent other places. When mass shootings happen they make the news because they're big. I only remember a couple lone shootings in this town in many years. More often injuries are fights or stabbing. Only time I saw violence almost directly is when in the town I used to live in (smaller than this) mom saw a guy that was stabbed on the side of the road and used her first aid training to help him. I was 10 then.
This is excellent video Dari l like the hiking and Sleeping Hallow which l did not know it was in New York l only know Sleeping Hallow in the film about the headless horseman. The trees are lovely in the Fall but here in the U.K. we call it Autumn. Look forward to your next video.
We call it both fall and autumn in the US. Depends on which state you are in or the mood of the conversation.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I am very happy Dari that you are fine in New York and that you have so many friends to share this fantastic adventure and that you are going to form this Russian community. Great idea indeed. Congrats for your exams, you are really an excellent student, a great resource! You are a fantastic youtuber and we love you very much. Thank you for sharing and take care💙💚❤️
Thank you! 😃❤️
Dari, it is a joy to watch you and your friends enjoy college and other wonderful life experiences. We look forward to seeing many more videos of happy times for you and your crew in NYC and elsewhere in the US!!
Wonderful video Dari! I'm so glad that you are enjoying NY! Halloween is always a great time in the US! 😁🎃🎃
Good Job on passing your exams, keep going, you'll have a nice break at in December
I loved seeing Sleepy Hollow. I've always wanted to go there because I loved the story as a kid. Eventually I'll visit! 🎃🍂
You shoulddd 😍
If you get the opportunity go to the New York Thanksgiving Day Parade you will enjoy yourself.🌹
You’re such a cute kid! Enjoy!
I think someone is home-sick, missing Moscow deep down. I had similar feelings in my first few weeks living away from home, and that was all in the UK. As you get more familiar with New York, it will begin to feel like home. Pleased you like the High Line. It is a 'must visit' place when ever my daughter goes to New York.
Ahaha I don’t miss Russia at all 😂
@@DariStep , But poster makes a good point, because u could miss family and pets on a subconscious level. Anyway, hopefully you get to do some video chats with them now and again.
I truly enjoyed the video congratulations on your partnership with the new brand sending my love.🌹♥️🌹
Thank you so much!!
Thank you Dasha. I've missed you and your videos.I enjoyed this video very very much. Fall in the North Eastern United States is wonderful. Beautiful places and interesting sites to see. Keep working hard Dasha, and keep seeing your friends! You are in my thoughts and prayers Dasha. God bless
Thank you :)
Sleepy Hollow is the site of the legend of Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman. Disney made a short Cartoon about it.
ua-cam.com/video/CdZ1Y92eVfM/v-deo.html
Evidently there was a full movie made.

Sleepy Hollow is kind of the gateway to the Catskill Mountains. Route 17 is one of the most picturesque drives. The mountains are very beautiful and it was a popular resort area many decades ago. Further north between Albany and the Canadian border are the Adirondack mountains, also a vacation area.
The entire region was once populated by the Dutch and many of the names of places are Dutch. New York City was originally called New Amsterdam. There are many legends about the Catskills such as Rip Van Winkle.
The portions are huge. But many of us don't eat it all at supper. We take the leftovers home with us, and eat them for lunch the next day.
I’m doing the same! Or sharing with a friend! However, I’ve noticed that Americans don’t really share dishes, is it true?
@@DariStep sharing dishes in the Midwest is quite common. I don't know about the Mid-Atlantic, though.
@@DariStep have you traveled to Pittsburgh yet? That is the very eastern tip of the Midwest. Pittsburgh was also largely settled by Slavs.
I've been watching your videos for a while now, about a year and I have confidence in you. You'll be alright. Spend time with your friends and find some doggies in Central park to spend time with. Dogs are the best.
Ahahah true
Wow ! Thank you for sharing your adventure in NY! May I suggest you go to Hollywood next so that you can become a glamorous movie star! You are so pretty!!
Maybe one day 😂
yeah about that anxiety....might want to get used to it Welcome To America!!!😁
Dari I loved this vlog so much, it’s making me want to visit the us during autumn 🍂 I hope whatever is causing you stress and anxiety goes away, love from Australia ❤
Thanks for your support ✨
Congratulations on becoming a brand ambassador, Dari!
The Philippines was an American colony just shy of 50 years and the Halloween thing didn’t really catch on. It’s more of a commercial event than anything else. We have more commonality with México’s Día de los Muertos, given our history with Spain. November 1-2 for the country is a national religious holiday.
Your Russian squad needs a name: тетушки or something. 😁
We are too young to be named like that 😂😭
Sleepy Hollow is famous for one thing, and it's neither of the two things Dari mentioned. It was made famous by the 1820 short story "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" by Washington Irving.
The little "houses" in cemeteries are called mausoleums.
Dari it’s really wonderful that you’re enjoying America at it’s best you are a beautiful well mannered woman and I really enjoy your videos keep up the great work you are really a shining light in these difficult times in the world God Bless you
Thank you so much!!
I'm glad to see that you enjoyed the Halloween decorations and the whole Halloween experience. The tickets on the Metro North Railroad are much more expensive than are the tickets on our suburban commuter railroad in Chicagoland named Metra for traveling a similar distance. So you'll probably find public transit to be cheaper in most other cities you travel to in the USA. The elevated trains in Chicago also have heaters on the outdoor waiting platforms where you push the button for heat but it only works during November through March.
Thanks for letting me know :)
It is good you didn't go to Syracuse Univ. They just got hit by a big snowstorm and another is coming for the weekend. Big difference in weather in NYC and upstate NY. I grew up 40 miles east of Syracuse. I would never move back. I am here, 70 miles north of NYC, just south of Poughkeepsie. Going bike riding tomorrow. Going to be a bit cold, but I can layer up and be OK. Not in upstate NY.
I was thinking the same 😂
@@DariStep I later found a site with snow totals, and the city of Syracuse got 6 inches, but the further north you went, up to Lake Ontario, it got worse and worse. Right next to the lake, one place had 43 inches. It's called Lake Effects Snow. The warm moist air hits the cold dry air and snow falls. It can drop snow hundreds of miles away, all the way to Albany. I know, I traveled in it on the Thruway many Christmases. I would come up from the south, then travel west at Albany. All the way from Albany to Clinton, near Utica, there could be heavy snow. One time it was so bad, I was in a white out. That is when you can;t see anything but white. It happened for about 30 sec. near Utica. When I could finally see, I was still on the road, but there were numerous cars off the road for the next few miles. My brother used to travel to Buffalo from Plattsburgh every Thanksgiving and Christmas. to his wife's parents. Eventually, they stopped doing that and would go in early Novenber to avoid the snow.. Growing up in Clinton, we thought all of this was normal.
What a lovely video! You made it to so many of my favorite places. It’s good that you and your friends are enjoying all that NY has to offer: the city, nature, small towns, etc. Keep up the good work in school. Congratulations on your accounting grade. That’s not easy to do!
Thank you so much!
The Appalachian trail goes through Harriman State Park and Bear Mountain. I assume that you have heard of it.
I’m so happy you had a Fantastic Halloween, next year I hope you get to explore some more locations for The Halloween Season, the channel Carpetbagger has a great selection of locations he went to this year, some great suggestions to check out especially for The Christmas Season. For Thanksgiving that is a great time to be with friends, all of you could prepare and share a meal together. As for New Year’s Eve, New York is absolute pandemonium, I would suggest starting out small like a private get together, as it is terribly cold that night and there are lots of crowds, it gets pretty rowdy. If you like to Ski, I would suggest the Western States, like Idaho, Utah or Colorado. Not as expensive as the East Coast, and it rains a lot less. The Airports are packed during this time of year, so be ready for delays in travel. Thank You for the videos 👍
Thank you for your recommendations ✨
02:50 In Budapest on August 20, on the occasion of the founding of the Hungarian state (AD 1001), several figures were formed from drones during the fireworks display. Also three-dimensional figures.
Thank you for sharing your video with us. The celebration of Halloween in New York is truly fabulous.
I am also happy that relations between Russia and the USA 🇺🇸 are normalizing. I know there are many young Russians who would like to visit the United States.
Regarding your anxiety, you should consult at the University because they have a lot of resources to help you overcome your anxieties. They can also refer you to an outside psychologist.
Anxieties are excessive emotions of the survival instinct. Anxieties signal imminent danger but in reality this danger is not real.
A lot of these anxieties, in my opinion, are due to the fact that we don't know our bodies well enough. I assume that a student in medicine would never have such anxieties. We are simply afraid of what we do not know.
The anxiety will disappear when you are convinced that this fear is not realistic and that the danger does not exist.
Waiting to consult, keep doing your things normally and remain optimistic.
Wish you the best.
Thank you for your comment!
Halloween and St Patrick's' day started to catch on in the larger cities in Russia during the early 2000's, but, were frowned upon by the Orthodox Church in Russian since the Eastern church did not recognize those Saint and pressure was put on to stop those festivities.
