  • This is our daily family life in Siberia, Russia in winter 2023/2024. We arrived in my hometown of Kemerovo, Siberia, after crossing in to Russia by ship from Korea and the travelling from Vladivostok, across the country on the trans Siberian train, the worlds longest train. Once here and staying with my family, we want to show you our daily lives, the typical day to day thing we are getting up to here in provincial Russia. This is a week in our lives here staying in Siberia as we hang out with my family and enjoy a quieter period of time. Welcome to Siberia, welcome to a typical week in our lives.

    thank you for the new video...i really love seeing you guys within the family in Siberia - i find it so fascinating and a source of emotional warmth - probably because i left home at 17 - came to Europe from Calfornia and have only really had surrogate families while here - life gets very difficult when one ages - you never think you ill miss these things - but you certainly do!!! hence family life in Siberia is very heartwarming to watch. david 68 yrs in london uk

    The Soviet era cafe was utterly wonderful. Simply wonderful. Just one thing, technical point: When recording voice overs could Julia back away from the microphone just a little. Sometimes the clarity of the audio gets lost as her voice becomes mumbled due to her proximity to the microphone.

Guess that's why our supposed winter is a much-coveted, eagerly-awaited period of time of the year for most people here. Also, the soviet-style cafe/cake shop looks so fab! Oh, by the way, even though I'm a Thai, I can proudly say I am #teampancake 😆

    These are my favourite videos, where the two of you visit Julia's family in Siberia and we get to see them, the cooking etc. They don't seem to starve, do they? (I say this before having watched the video yet. I have made a pof of tea and will watch the viseo when it has brewed and I can get a cup!). Do the various members of the family out there all watch your videos, too? It would be a good way to keep up to date with what you are doing wherever you may be.
    Now, for that MUG of tea and the video....
