We need more conversations like this. My wife is from Russia, and too often in media I see Russians stereotyped, when in fact it's a culturally rich country. Good work.
Trump said their are fake news and it's bad for the people...don't trust fake news chaos and fear mongering is how they get their profits...as soon as we hear horrible news people want to know what's happening
All my grandparents came from Russia to Canada during the early 1900s and during WW2 and I’ve always been curious to learn the language and learn the culture as I truly know the Russians aren’t what they’re made out to be in the Western media. It’s sad how much the media can control people’s thoughts and beliefs.
Kyle is absolutely right. I have a number of Russian friends and they go way out of their way to treat me kindly. I've found them to be very friendly and helpful. I've been around the world and lived all over but the Russians are the best. They absolutely treat me like family even when I have only just met them. I wouldn't trade my Russian friends for anything! I would definitely move to Russia if I wasn't so darn old!
How old are you, 40? And what does your age have to do with it anyway? I simply dont have the means to move to another country or I think Id like living in Russia. There are alot of negative stereotypes that Im seeing as untrue
As a Russian with a lot of American friends, I've been told that they love that I don't beat around the bush and say exactly what I think. Of course I mind my manners when needed but never with my friends and family. Some of my American friends started doing the same and they said their lives have become easier lol. I think our level of sarcasm is on par with French. Apart from that, I've been told that I'm too nice and ready to give away the last piece of bread to my friend or person in need. I've always thought it was a given but turns out it's not...?
I love how Russians treated me during my visit and I can't wait to go back. In fact I am trying to learn Russian. It's difficult! Beautiful country with beautiful people!
One of my neighbors was sent overseas by his employer several years ago. His first assignment was Russia and his second was farther south. He went directly to the second destination when he finished his Russian assignment. (Out of respect, I won't mention the second nation.) When he returned home (to USA), he told me he had the best time in Russia, but when he got to the second destination and spent two weeks there, he said he would have crawled through broken glass clear across the Himalayas to get back to Russia. I guess that second assignment was not top notch. lol
absolutely 100 percent nailed it on the hot rooms. drove me crazy living there when it was winter and the inside of buildings were like going to a desert. i also enjoyed the walking culture of moscow.
A little older perspective on Russian women. I was a little younger than Kyle and stationed in Germany when the USSR fell. Many Russian women (and women from other former Soviet countries) moved to Germany to take jobs. I interpret the "getting behind her man" a little differently. It is definitely not submissive. But, a Russian (and many of the eastern European) woman will spoil her man tremendously, but is very demanding at the same time. You better open the car door for her, you better take her out, you better spoil her as much as is within your ability. She wants to always make her man better so her life is also better.
Mr. RussianPlus, the comment "Working hard or hardly working?" may be "corny" but it does show a very high level of american english language competence. Your language skills are fantastic.
I'm american, never been to Russia but have known a few Russians living here, two were clients of mine and others were acquaintances. LOVE THEM. SO friendly, warm and intelligent. Would love to go there!
Been living in LA for many years, met people from all over the world. One thing I can say for sure, people are literally 100% exactly the same everywhere, sense of humor and all, everything, all the differences are superficial. Thanks to the lockdown I spent 6 months back in Moscow and it's crazy how it has changed so much since I left years ago, it's probably one the cleanest major cities in the world right now, especially compared to LA with sidewalks full of trash and homeless and crazy people on every corner nowadays, just goes to show what happens to society inevitably, when everything is based on success and failure is its biggest fear and prescription drugs are the answer to any problem.
You can't compare LA to Moscow. A more fair comparison would be Dhaka or New Delhi. LA is still dirtier of course, but at least it's in the same ballpark.
I feel like here in America we hear a lot of negativity about Russians, and it makes some people leery about meeting them. We also hear a lot about Russia on the news and it's never very nice. Anyway, one day I was watching UA-cam and I happened to come across a video done by a Russian woman. She is now my favorite youtuber and that lead me to your videos and some others about russia. Do you know what I find the most interesting, we are pretty much the same, with a few cultural differences. I think you have a handsome smile and I find nothing wrong with woman "getting behind their husband."" I definitely think I support my husband in that way, but he does the same for me. Thanks for the video.
American media are full of bs, bashing Russia left and right..so most Americans have negative views of Russia because of the American media trying to brainwashing the public to think that way.
Is it different Russia channel? 😆 Once Democrats get to power, that Russia bashing from the media would subside, until then they’ll bad mouth Russia and link that to the republicans. Every single democrat will say identical things and the media will spread it ten fold. That’s how propaganda works. But once they get White House, they’ll do their corrupt deals with every country including Russia. Selling uranium anyone?
@DrumpTard Zionist Collusion America isn't 'overthrowing' anyone. THAT would be the CIA!! It was also the CIA who overthrew the American government on November 22, 1963!!
@@RussianPlus I'm amazed..you have something of a West Coast American accent with just a hint of Russian...and at first thought you had immigrated to the States, but realizing that wasn't the case, makes it even more impressive that you such a feel for American English
Sometimes Americans prefer their Russian acquaintances to make a lot of minor mistakes when they talk in English. That way, we are aware of who they are and where they are. This was particularly true back during the Cold War. Vladimir Posner who grew up in New York City with his dad working at the Soviet Consulate could make many of us uncomfortable, because his English was so perfect, we might forget he was "one of them", a Soviet living among us.
@@hinchlnt I remember one of the first TV US-Soviet space bridges Pozner made. A random black guy from the US audience blurted something like, - "You have a better chance to land a job here in the US than I do, because you speak better English than me..." Jeez, it all was in 20th century now, time flies....
There is a large contingent of Americans that descend from Eastern Europe. There are many of us Americans who know how to make Borscht passed down from family recipes. As an American woman, I can say, I know only a few women that don't like to cook. In fact, with the internet and UA-cam, there are so many resources to learn, I love cooking even more. Also, I have to say that when I was in Russia, I was treated wonderfully. The Russian people are warm, friendly and generous.
There once was a saying here in America, "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach". Unfortunately that one's been discarded in today's busy modern world.
This is an interesting observation about saying Hi more than once a day. I am Polish and working in British company, and also don't understand why my coworkers say "hi" everytime when they ask me for something when we have already greeted that day. 😂 Also I love how many common habits Russians have with Poles. Nice interview, cheers!
It the same here in Germany: we don't say HI twice to the same person in the same day. Doing otherwise would even come across as superficial - that you forgot about this person. If in doubt, you would included an excuse like: oh, I think, we saw eachother before ... but HI anyway. Or the other would replay to the second HI like: We did see each other before!
True. In Russia I was always told I'm not dressed well enough. Initially I took it as an offence, but got to know later that they mean I'm too exposed for the winter cold.
Can you interview Kyle in English about how he got his job teaching English? What's it like teaching in Russia, how much does he earn, hours, schools, students, problems... all of it :-)
Yes! You said it! I am Russian, I live in Europe and well....I hate being cold! 🥶 Especially in the first year, when I just moved here, it was so hard to survive when it was 0C outside and +18C inside ... But it's actualy pretty funny to see the reaction of foreigners when I try to explain to them that the fact that we can have -25C outside does not make us used to it, because we have + 25C inside
Blueberries & Vodka Although I am atheist but God bless you for taking care of that poor soul. Dog is man's excellent friend. As for the negative comments, I would like to say: They dislike you because of the extreme bully your country subjecting Russia to. Yes. it is true that U.S.A. is extreme bully, sadistic, and evil country. God bless anybody who shows mercy on an animal. be blessed you and your family. =D
He said he wants his dog to go out more often because he thinks the dog feels sad being alone most of the day. he walks his dog on his own in the morning or evening at least one time. It has nothing to do with laziness or a bad attitude. It's conversely a trait of a good dog owner
Kyle sounds like a large town/city or suburb millennial. Millennials raised in or around cities tend to have that odd sort of 'life should be fair' attitude and it's their job to make it so. When I was listening to Slava describing Russian culture, I could easily relate to how things worked which tends to be the perspective of many people from the preceding generations to the millennials and quite a few non-city dwelling millennials. I have a suspicion it comes from the concept of living life based on practicality or pragmatism as a means to opt for the best outcome rather than trying to force an outcome that isn't realistic.
YES! Also I could not finish watching the What Russians think of Americans video because of "offended Kyle". People with those mindsets, cancel culture, and everybody else killing America are the main reason I want to learn Russian and get off this sinking ship.
I meet alot of russians here in myrtle beach. I dont think theyve ever been rude or unpleasant to be around. We dont even talk politics or any of that mess. Theyre really just like us but with a different language.
@Natalia Most of Ukraine is not like the Nazi regime the US installed in place of their democracy, only in the western less populated region is there any approval of the tiny Nazi minority but the rest of the country suffers from it. Few Ukrainians are leftist, and the Nazis are extremely right wing. The country can't service much longer as the failed state it is so the western region will probably go back to their old homeland of Poland and the east and south will rejoin Russia. The north central region wil probably fight it out as to who gets Kiev. The state of Ukraine has existed only very ocassonaly in history and the current borders are very recent so the very different people have no connection with each other, but far more have Russian blood and relatives over the border than the pockets in the west which were Polish or Romanian most of history. Yes the country is extremely corrupt and it only got worse since the US took over in 2014
I am Ethiopian and the thing about the socks and the sitting on the floor is as old as time. But i'm convinced its real. I used to have really bad cramps and my grandmother told me to stop sitting on the floor, or by the window when its cold. I found that my stomach cramps actually did get worse when I was in direct contact with the cold floor or sleeping near a window. These tips come from cultures where many children got the cold in the past, often dying of illness, so they come up to prevent you getting a cold.
I'm Polish (3rd Gen), born and raised in U.S.. Since I was young I've compared my habits, hobbies, interests, etc to other Americans and those from other countries. After this video (listing off typical differences of Russian women vs American women)... You both confirmed that I'm Russian. ;) Loved this discussion and thanks!
@@achiburshakib5804 3rd generation - explanation of my comment: In my case, family immigrated from Poland to U.S. and I'm the 3rd generation born on U.S. from those that arrived. So I'm a 3rd gen Pole in America. In aspects of lineage and claiming rights to countries, 3rd generation is important to me so I can obtain my Poland citizenship. If I don't, 4th generation and beyond lose rights to obtain. Hopefully I understand and explained that correctly (in hurry, day's starting lol). Thanks for the question and have a wonderful weekend. 😄

So, from all of us worldwide that suffer any pain or hardships... The struggles don't singularly define us, but it does show our character and how much true strength we do have!!
@@achiburshakib5804 Well, I'll join in on the weirder. We're coming into the age of enlightenment with the dominant being in devine feminine energies (generosity, caring, empathy, etc). So even if misunderstood or lonely, you're in the beginning of a new era of change and on time (the rest just don't know it yet lol). As long as we learn to evolve and do it in positive ways, then those with faults they haven't worked through themselves, can learn the hard way. We all just be true to ourselves, for that is hard enough for a lot of people. In this realm or the next, be comfortable and remain positive mentally as often as able. Much love!
Most women want to feel protected .Its a natural thing for a woman.Not to be controlled but protected physically.That is something the younger generation of American men don't understand .My father was always the protector and defender of my mother and children . It seems that much of the older generation of men in the US were very valient and protective such as the military men. I also noticed how Israeli men are very protective. It is an awesome quality I miss in the younger generation of males in U.S. I always felt that if there is a problem I don't want some wimpy boyfriend that I have to protect.He needs to protect me and the children.
Tish Leigh This is exactly why I don’t date American men or men raised in America , most American men my age are lazy and week and want the woman to take care of them, it’s a shame.
Wasn't it American women who demanded and still do equality and other feminist BS? Well, feminism won. Enjoy it now. If you want your son to be a man, raise him like a man and not a pussy whipped jerk
Thank you so much! If all goes well, I am moving to Moscow this August to teach English. I am really looking forward to it. I am also considering staying there after my first year is done. Your information is super helpful. I am studying Russian and I hope one day I am as fluent as you are.
What’s wrong with a woman feeling good about being protected by her man? As men we should feel proud that our woman feels that way and wants to express that rather than say “your a human, you don’t need to be behind me”... I remember a couple of years back I got yelled at in a coffee shop entrance for opening a door for her... Chivalry is dead in the UK I swear.
I am from the central valley of California where every summer was really hot so moved to cooler weather, the beach of San Francisco by myself at 17 where it was cold and foggy in the summer but 70-80F 2 miles east into the main part of the city. Later I had a business on the coast where it was cool Sausalito but my main home was in the mountains 180 miles to the east and enjoyed the colder weather and snow. Now I live in St Petersburg Russia for the last 19.8 years and love the winter. It is a relaxing slower pace time with more socializing and access to cultural events. Summers are packed with tourists and major museums and concert/ballet theaters are sold out, and sidewalks are densely packed in the historic city center where I live. The city looks spectacular in winter at night, just stunning. I get stopped often by women who suggest I wear gloves and a warmer coat but I am usually in short sleeve shirts until the end of October. My Russian GF is constantly cold and leaves the apartment with layers of coats. All my female friends act as if it is much colder than it is. My apartment is just right all winter, 20c, 72F due to the plumbed hot water for space heat with central boiler plants around the city.
@Psalm 27 there are plenty of jobs available in SPb or Moscow, I can assure you, especially for foreigners. You could teach English or German language readily in any English/German school. I truly believe that any consistent school will be happy to get a native language speaker if that what are you looking for of course. I would be happy to send you few links where you could upload your resume if that what you want. 8)
@Psalm 27 The cost of living is very low in Russia, even in the highly developed large cities, so any savings you might have would allow living for a long time until you find something that needs to done and create a business or if you are an expert in something, be a consultant. 12.5 million people have emigrated to Russia in 10 years, many from Europe and USA where cost of living is very high now and debt is a constant problem. Here, it is possible to live on very little and still have access to a social and cultural world like no other. I created my own businesses and started with very little money since I gave everything except for one of the houses and 1 car, away when moving here in 2000 with only 2 suitcases and $6000 in my pocket. I started a repair shop for professional audio equipment for recording studios, venues and musicians and not the only registered business doing that in a city of 7 million people. I then added an incoming tourism business, which I had no experience with but it grew quickly and then in 14 years sold it to a larger national energy company, and there was no non-compete clause so opened another but very small and it grew quickly but was still small enough for a small staff to handle. Then added another incoming registered tour operator so have 3 profitable businesses and still live on very little. I have no need to spend money except on girls;>) I go out every night to dance or attend jazz, rock, opera, ballet, fine dining, exhibits, museums, and had time to start a side personal business/hobby of photography. Just did a session for a jazz singer for her upcoming concert tour advertising, just yesterday. Anyone with a bit of knowledge of how to get things done, and has an idea, they can do fine here. I know street musicians who life very comfortably debt free working only 2 days a week. A close friend, a woman spends 1/3 of the year traveling internationally for fun, works 2-4 days a week in the summer as a tour guide, owns her home without debt, has about 150 dresses and outfits, enjoys the arts and fine dining and takes from late Sept to early May off, and has no debt. That just is not possible in most countries with high cost of living.She thinks it is normal to have 3/4 of play and free time doing things few people could afford in the west. She is a lawyer by profession but became a registered tour guide because she liked the freedom and having so much time off..
Wow...thank you for these videos. I am considering moving to Russia to live on my pension and perhaps some work that would utilize my work history in law, and the English and German languages.
“What’s the difference between American women and Russian women” is one of my favorite topics. I really hope Russian women realize they’re superior and that they should never follow the suicidal example set by American women and their feminist insanity.
He described Russian women exactly way they are. I used to married to Ukrainian Russian woman. First she was very loving in the end cold like an ice. Just within two years she took half my investment. Which was 100% mine. I still believe Russian women make wives than Western women.
My Russian friends in a year and a half treated me better than any of my American friends have treated me in my 22 years of existence. They helped me in a time of need and they were (and still are) the best friends I've ever had. I'm glad to hear they're like that over there, and not just here in the US.
I was at work and I literally sat on the floor to do something and my Russian coworker yelled at me to get up. Lol it’s funny that you mentioned that. She told me I’d get sick, I was like wahhh... ok. I just did as I was told so she’d stop nagging.
My wife and I had 5 children and for a time we lived in a farmhouse that was over 100 yrs old. We never let our children sit or play on the floor without proper clothing. Any intelligent person knows that heat rises and the coldest spot in the room is foot level!! Anytime the door to the outdoors is opened, the cold blast races right across the floor and hits the toddlers square in the face. If you have a leaky window, the cold settles on the floor. Just stand in front of an upright freezer with bare feet (if you have one) when you open it to remove food items. You will feel the icy air fall right out of it and hit your feet!! There aren't many people who tend to heat their basements as they would their bedrooms, so the floor directly above it is never warmer than your basement temperature. Hence, Russians know what they say about the floor. :)
For a girl or a woman to sit on cold stone,rock or floor gonna bring gynaecological problems..she was not nagging,she was worried for you’re health and future kids wellbeing,didn’t want you to later lay in hospitals getting gynaecological treatments..for kids it’s even worst as they have less fat on ass to protect them,many kids after sitting on cold floor later pee in beds,or have trouble peeing,girls get cystitis as minimum..
Here in Alaska people tend to keep their houses quite warm in winter. This is especially true in Fairbanks where winter temps are commonly below -30 C. Even businesses and hotels are quite warm. So might just be a thing common to all cold places. I assumed it comes from generations of relying on wood for heat which makes your house ridiculously hot and hard to control temp.
I had a wonderful time when I visited Russia and also found the people to be very welcoming and curious. We got to spend some time at a local school and they put on a presentation for us, they were so excited to meet us and asked all sorts of questions. I really would love to return!
Me too. My boyfriend is Russian and wants me to move back with him. I'm currently learning the language and it's really hard but I really want to be fluent before we live there.
@@sassycat6487 wow, good luck with that, russian language is tough and I'm saying it as a native russian speaker, but don't stress it, your poor russian and strong accent can be part of your charm, as long as you learn some very basic words and concepts you're good to go, the rest will come naturally. Which city btw? If it's Moscow or Saint Petersburg those are very nice places nowadays, very clean and fun, winter can be harsh, but I personally miss russian winters, I've been living in SoCal for over a decade and moving back to Moscow soon and I can't wait, it's easier for me cause I'm russian and have family there and some of my friends still remember me lol, but I'm sure you'll find american expats groups etc, I'd probably be happy to visit one myself when I move just to make the transition easier :) Life is really not that different from in russia compared to the us nowadays, people are the same everywhere when you dig a tiny bit deeper and I've dealt with people from all over the world, the only thing is almost impossible to adjust to is not being able to turn right on red and if you're a driver this will likely make you really angry quite a few times before you get used to it lol

I am a second generation American, who is half Russian (my father's side), and I am married to a Ukrainian woman, who was a chef in her own restaurant. I have been to Russia and The Ukraine many times over the last 40+ years. I find that people from the former USSR, are warm, welcoming and loving, the was it was when I grew up in New York City. Today in the U.S. many people whom I know live thousands of miles away from family and close friends, and they think it is okay, and that I am weird, for missing that closeness that we had when I was young, and is still very much prevalent in the former USSR. Every time I go to Russia, and/or The Ukraine, I am treated by everyone like a lost returning son. It is wonderful, and I love it !!!! Thank you for sharing this video, I so much enjoyed watching it.
That concept of women being behind men is a beautiful concept that has almost been erased from our society. If Russians still have this it is because they have been preserved by God. I wish I could have been raised in a society like that.
Can you comment on what you like better in Russia..very curious? I'm very disillusioned with American culture, not optimistic. Russia in many ways seems admirable
PLEASE fine another american to interview; this guy was hard to watch; his speech was almost robotic, like listening to a really William Shatner impression only worse; and he's cute but he comes off arrogant as hell, what a turn off. I kept watching thinking the interview would somehow become more interesting but it didn't; there was no flow to his statements AT ALL. Maybe he's better on his channel or in other videos of yours but I'll never find out as I'll never look for this guy in your other vids. Find a more interesting interviewee. NEXXXXXXT!
I know what you mean and this is the second time I've seen him. I find him though, more edgy and uptight rather than arrogant. In fact I have a suspicion that he's nervous being interviewed on camera and is trying to physically clinch himself together to retain some kind of cool which can then make some of his comments come out disjointed, incomplete, etc. I look at his eyes and I see terror. At least that might be part of it. Jes' sayin'.
Uber drivers are supposed to talk due to the 'customer service' culture of the USA. They get graded on talking, unless the passenger requests no talking.

Dog is beautiful! Russian speaks just like an American...thank you for the great video. Happy to hear you are doing well over there. Food supply would be much safer there.
It looks like Kyle and I have been in Russia nearly the same amount of time. But he hasn't learned one aspect of Russia that is certainly almost universal in Russia, Russian are blunt and to the point. Kyle is trying to be too nice. Russian are rude! But I've gotten over it. It's just part of life here. When I first moved here I tip-toed a lot around issues that might produce problems. But I realized that I didn't need to, if you don't like something tell them. Russians like the honesty. Lots of differences in Russia but like Kyle I've grown into them and have accepted them. But we are all different people and see things in different ways. Good video.
@@uglaegilsdottir I see what you are saying and agree. But we are talking about two different things. I see rude behavior in public all the time, I ask about this to my friends and they tell me it's true. A very high percentage of my friends are Russian. Are you going to argue with them as well?
He strikes me as some sort of soft handed city dwelling freaky freak! A dog walker? Who the hell has a dog in an apartment!? Dogs are for guarding livestock.
We have issues with the Russian government not with Russian people. Their government is not really an ally to America. Same could be said about our government against Russian leaders.
I like the "Greet once per day principle". We have a variant of it here in Sweden; I've noticed that you HAVE to greet someone the first time you see a person that day, the second time is optional and less cheery, perhaps a nod, the rest of the day is fine to just pass without acknowledging.
Yes, I lived in the U.S., and most of my close friends are Russians and they are very hospitable and very good cooks. I never enjoyed visiting my American friends because they don't know how to be hospitable and never cook but whenever they used to come over they would eat everything I served them with great joy.
Yes. the cooking. American women are way behind their counterparts from Asia, Europe and Latin America. That old saying that 'the way to a man's heart is thru his stomach' is true.
All women want to be protected. American women also want to be protected. Problem is people confuse equal rights with equal abilty. I can be just as smart but I cannot fight a thief in the night. And I am okay with that as a woman. Russian women are really smart in proudly proclaiming this reality.
So where is Kyle from? USA is a big country with a lot of cultures. Indiana is a different place than Alabama. Flyover territory is different than left coasts. Most of us in Midwest do not say hi to people we have seen frequently during the day.
On dog walking: I think Russians have more availability during the day to even come back home and walk their dog or have a ‘short day’ if they decide to. The salary may not be that great but the ability to play with your schedule makes it easier on dog owners. Same reason for not getting a nanny to take care of your kid for the first 3 years because it’s acceptable by the society to be a stay at home mom for this long. Another thing, it’s ok to ask your family or your friends for a favor, like you can expect your parents to take care of your kids and dogs without having to pay them:) You are also expected to take care of your parents when they get old. I hope this explained it a little bit:)
In Russia, it is not accepted after the birth of a child to leave his first three years with a nanny. And it's not even about income. It is probably more about cultural, national, historical and religious values and principles. In Russia, for example, it is not customary to leave one small child on the Playground of a supermarket, even if there are educators who will look after the children. If you have a child on the Playground, be sure that someone one of the parents should stay and look after the child. Leaving a child with a stranger is like leaving him. Russia is probably not just a different culture, it is a different civilization.
We need more conversations like this. My wife is from Russia, and too often in media I see Russians stereotyped, when in fact it's a culturally rich country. Good work.
Thank you for your good view on Russia
Well I'm not moving then. I want plain homogeneous boring. I'm done with multicultural.

Kyle is absolutely right. I have a number of Russian friends and they go way out of their way to treat me kindly. I've found them to be very friendly and helpful. I've been around the world and lived all over but the Russians are the best. They absolutely treat me like family even when I have only just met them. I wouldn't trade my Russian friends for anything! I would definitely move to Russia if I wasn't so darn old!
It's never too late!

And what does your age have to do with it anyway?

Of course I mind my manners when needed but never with my friends and family. Some of my American friends started doing the same and they said their lives have become easier lol. I think our level of sarcasm is on par with French. Apart from that, I've been told that I'm too nice and ready to give away the last piece of bread to my friend or person in need. I've always thought it was a given but turns out it's not...?
I love how Russians treated me during my visit and I can't wait to go back. In fact I am trying to learn Russian. It's difficult! Beautiful country with beautiful people!
One of my neighbors was sent overseas by his employer several years ago. His first assignment was Russia and his second was farther south. He went directly to the second destination when he finished his Russian assignment. (Out of respect, I won't mention the second nation.) When he returned home (to USA), he told me he had the best time in Russia, but when he got to the second destination and spent two weeks there, he said he would have crawled through broken glass clear across the Himalayas to get back to Russia. I guess that second assignment was not top notch. lol
Just watch out for Babushka, she will force you to put on heavy clothing in the winter or feed you until your stomach aches.

A little older perspective on Russian women. I was a little younger than Kyle and stationed in Germany when the USSR fell. Many Russian women (and women from other former Soviet countries) moved to Germany to take jobs. I interpret the "getting behind her man" a little differently. It is definitely not submissive. But, a Russian (and many of the eastern European) woman will spoil her man tremendously, but is very demanding at the same time. You better open the car door for her, you better take her out, you better spoil her as much as is within your ability. She wants to always make her man better so her life is also better.
Russia seems like it still holds great values that the U.S is losing
That is dangerous in the US. I have held the door open for both men and women and some women become angry and curse me when I hold the door for them.
These two are SO DRY and I LOVE IT 😂
They are both wonderful men, and Kyle speaks the truth!
So boring they make stale break break apart

Been living in LA for many years, met people from all over the world. One thing I can say for sure, people are literally 100% exactly the same everywhere, sense of humor and all, everything, all the differences are superficial.
Thanks to the lockdown I spent 6 months back in Moscow and it's crazy how it has changed so much since I left years ago, it's probably one the cleanest major cities in the world right now, especially compared to LA with sidewalks full of trash and homeless and crazy people on every corner nowadays, just goes to show what happens to society inevitably, when everything is based on success and failure is its biggest fear and prescription drugs are the answer to any problem.
You can't compare LA to Moscow. A more fair comparison would be Dhaka or New Delhi. LA is still dirtier of course, but at least it's in the same ballpark.
I feel like here in America we hear a lot of negativity about Russians, and it makes some people leery about meeting them. We also hear a lot about Russia on the news and it's never very nice. Anyway, one day I was watching UA-cam and I happened to come across a video done by a Russian woman. She is now my favorite youtuber and that lead me to your videos and some others about russia. Do you know what I find the most interesting, we are pretty much the same, with a few cultural differences. I think you have a handsome smile and I find nothing wrong with woman "getting behind their husband."" I definitely think I support my husband in that way, but he does the same for me. Thanks for the video.
American media are full of bs, bashing Russia left and right..so most Americans have negative views of Russia because of the American media trying to brainwashing the public to think that way.
Is it different Russia channel? 😆 Once Democrats get to power, that Russia bashing from the media would subside, until then they’ll bad mouth Russia and link that to the republicans. Every single democrat will say identical things and the media will spread it ten fold. That’s how propaganda works.
But once they get White House, they’ll do their corrupt deals with every country including Russia. Selling uranium anyone?
Your absolutely spot on.
Russians are more American than Americans of this current generation.
They are our brothers and sisters.

@@RussianPlus I'm amazed..you have something of a West Coast American accent with just a hint of Russian...and at first thought you had immigrated to the States, but realizing that wasn't the case, makes it even more impressive that you such a feel for American English
Sometimes Americans prefer their Russian acquaintances to make a lot of minor mistakes when they talk in English. That way, we are aware of who they are and where they are. This was particularly true back during the Cold War. Vladimir Posner who grew up in New York City with his dad working at the Soviet Consulate could make many of us uncomfortable, because his English was so perfect, we might forget he was "one of them", a Soviet living among us.
@@hinchlnt I remember one of the first TV US-Soviet space bridges Pozner made. A random black guy from the US audience blurted something like, - "You have a better chance to land a job here in the US than I do, because you speak better English than me..." Jeez, it all was in 20th century now, time flies....

There is a large contingent of Americans that descend from Eastern Europe. There are many of us Americans who know how to make Borscht passed down from family recipes. As an American woman, I can say, I know only a few women that don't like to cook. In fact, with the internet and UA-cam, there are so many resources to learn, I love cooking even more. Also, I have to say that when I was in Russia, I was treated wonderfully. The Russian people are warm, friendly and generous.
There once was a saying here in America, "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach".
Unfortunately that one's been discarded in today's busy modern world.

Wow, I was SURE the man on the left was American! He has 100% perfect American English! I am in awe.
This is an interesting observation about saying Hi more than once a day. I am Polish and working in British company, and also don't understand why my coworkers say "hi" everytime when they ask me for something when we have already greeted that day. 😂 Also I love how many common habits Russians have with Poles. Nice interview, cheers!
It the same here in Germany: we don't say HI twice to the same person in the same day. Doing otherwise would even come across as superficial - that you forgot about this person. If in doubt, you would included an excuse like: oh, I think, we saw eachother before ... but HI anyway.
Or the other would replay to the second HI like: We did see each other before!
True. In Russia I was always told I'm not dressed well enough. Initially I took it as an offence, but got to know later that they mean I'm too exposed for the winter cold.
Can you interview Kyle in English about how he got his job teaching English? What's it like teaching in Russia, how much does he earn, hours, schools, students, problems... all of it :-)
Very good questions! Greetings from Switzerland
I'm from Russia and I'm watching it😂👌
Wow. This was just the best video I've ever watched on YT. Thank you!!!!
Russia sounds really great. Less expensive than US. People are very nice.
Yes, but the average pay is way less. Your average Russian isn’t making even $1,000 USD a month.
Yes! You said it!
I am Russian, I live in Europe and well....I hate being cold! 🥶
Especially in the first year, when I just moved here, it was so hard to survive when it was 0C outside and +18C inside ...
But it's actualy pretty funny to see the reaction of foreigners when I try to explain to them that the fact that we can have -25C outside does not make us used to it, because we have + 25C inside
If you're too busy to walk your dog, why would you even want to have a dog?
Felix Dzerzhinsky good question, he’s a rescue... he found me

Although I am atheist but God bless you for taking care of that poor soul. Dog is man's excellent friend.
As for the negative comments, I would like to say: They dislike you because of the extreme bully your country subjecting Russia to. Yes. it is true that U.S.A. is extreme bully, sadistic, and evil country.
God bless anybody who shows mercy on an animal. be blessed you and your family. =D
Lol... He only wants to have a dog for play and cheering him up, not walking. xd
He said he wants his dog to go out more often because he thinks the dog feels sad being alone most of the day. he walks his dog on his own in the morning or evening at least one time. It has nothing to do with laziness or a bad attitude. It's conversely a trait of a good dog owner
The point of the dog walker is to give the dog EXTRA walks and attention. It's a kindness to the dog, not laziness. I used to be a dog walker. ;-)
Kyle sounds like a large town/city or suburb millennial. Millennials raised in or around cities tend to have that odd sort of 'life should be fair' attitude and it's their job to make it so. When I was listening to Slava describing Russian culture, I could easily relate to how things worked which tends to be the perspective of many people from the preceding generations to the millennials and quite a few non-city dwelling millennials. I have a suspicion it comes from the concept of living life based on practicality or pragmatism as a means to opt for the best outcome rather than trying to force an outcome that isn't realistic.
YES! Also I could not finish watching the What Russians think of Americans video because of "offended Kyle". People with those mindsets, cancel culture, and everybody else killing America are the main reason I want to learn Russian and get off this sinking ship.
In other words, Kyle better watch his ass over there!!!

@Natalia Most of Ukraine is not like the Nazi regime the US installed in place of their democracy, only in the western less populated region is there any approval of the tiny Nazi minority but the rest of the country suffers from it. Few Ukrainians are leftist, and the Nazis are extremely right wing. The country can't service much longer as the failed state it is so the western region will probably go back to their old homeland of Poland and the east and south will rejoin Russia. The north central region wil probably fight it out as to who gets Kiev. The state of Ukraine has existed only very ocassonaly in history and the current borders are very recent so the very different people have no connection with each other, but far more have Russian blood and relatives over the border than the pockets in the west which were Polish or Romanian most of history.
Yes the country is extremely corrupt and it only got worse since the US took over in 2014

I am Ethiopian and the thing about the socks and the sitting on the floor is as old as time. But i'm convinced its real. I used to have really bad cramps and my grandmother told me to stop sitting on the floor, or by the window when its cold. I found that my stomach cramps actually did get worse when I was in direct contact with the cold floor or sleeping near a window. These tips come from cultures where many children got the cold in the past, often dying of illness, so they come up to prevent you getting a cold.
I'm Polish (3rd Gen), born and raised in U.S.. Since I was young I've compared my habits, hobbies, interests, etc to other Americans and those from other countries.

In my case, family immigrated from Poland to U.S. and I'm the 3rd generation born on U.S. from those that arrived. So I'm a 3rd gen Pole in America. In aspects of lineage and claiming rights to countries, 3rd generation is important to me so I can obtain my Poland citizenship. If I don't, 4th generation and beyond lose rights to obtain. Hopefully I understand and explained that correctly (in hurry, day's starting lol).

As long as we learn to evolve and do it in positive ways, then those with faults they haven't worked through themselves, can learn the hard way. We all just be true to ourselves, for that is hard enough for a lot of people. In this realm or the next, be comfortable and remain positive mentally as often as able. Much love!
Most women want to feel protected .Its a natural thing for a woman.Not to be controlled but protected physically.That is something the younger generation of American men don't understand .My father was always the protector and defender of my mother and children . It seems that much of the older generation of men in the US were very valient and protective such as the military men. I also noticed how Israeli men are very protective. It is an awesome quality I miss in the younger generation of males in U.S. I always felt that if there is a problem I don't want some wimpy boyfriend that I have to protect.He needs to protect me and the children.

What’s wrong with a woman feeling good about being protected by her man? As men we should feel proud that our woman feels that way and wants to express that rather than say “your a human, you don’t need to be behind me”...

I'm russian. I like cold weather. Love Winter. The main thing is to be able to dress according to the weather)))
Very true
I am from the central valley of California where every summer was really hot so moved to cooler weather, the beach of San Francisco by myself at 17 where it was cold and foggy in the summer but 70-80F 2 miles east into the main part of the city. Later I had a business on the coast where it was cool Sausalito but my main home was in the mountains 180 miles to the east and enjoyed the colder weather and snow. Now I live in St Petersburg Russia for the last 19.8 years and love the winter. It is a relaxing slower pace time with more socializing and access to cultural events. Summers are packed with tourists and major museums and concert/ballet theaters are sold out, and sidewalks are densely packed in the historic city center where I live. The city looks spectacular in winter at night, just stunning. I get stopped often by women who suggest I wear gloves and a warmer coat but I am usually in short sleeve shirts until the end of October. My Russian GF is constantly cold and leaves the apartment with layers of coats. All my female friends act as if it is much colder than it is. My apartment is just right all winter, 20c, 72F due to the plumbed hot water for space heat with central boiler plants around the city.
@@stanspb763 great story, fascinating change you made. :)
@Psalm 27 there are plenty of jobs available in SPb or Moscow, I can assure you, especially for foreigners. You could teach English or German language readily in any English/German school. I truly believe that any consistent school will be happy to get a native language speaker if that what are you looking for of course. I would be happy to send you few links where you could upload your resume if that what you want. 8)
@Psalm 27 The cost of living is very low in Russia, even in the highly developed large cities, so any savings you might have would allow living for a long time until you find something that needs to done and create a business or if you are an expert in something, be a consultant. 12.5 million people have emigrated to Russia in 10 years, many from Europe and USA where cost of living is very high now and debt is a constant problem. Here, it is possible to live on very little and still have access to a social and cultural world like no other. I created my own businesses and started with very little money since I gave everything except for one of the houses and 1 car, away when moving here in 2000 with only 2 suitcases and $6000 in my pocket. I started a repair shop for professional audio equipment for recording studios, venues and musicians and not the only registered business doing that in a city of 7 million people. I then added an incoming tourism business, which I had no experience with but it grew quickly and then in 14 years sold it to a larger national energy company, and there was no non-compete clause so opened another but very small and it grew quickly but was still small enough for a small staff to handle. Then added another incoming registered tour operator so have 3 profitable businesses and still live on very little. I have no need to spend money except on girls;>) I go out every night to dance or attend jazz, rock, opera, ballet, fine dining, exhibits, museums, and had time to start a side personal business/hobby of photography. Just did a session for a jazz singer for her upcoming concert tour advertising, just yesterday.
Anyone with a bit of knowledge of how to get things done, and has an idea, they can do fine here. I know street musicians who life very comfortably debt free working only 2 days a week. A close friend, a woman spends 1/3 of the year traveling internationally for fun, works 2-4 days a week in the summer as a tour guide, owns her home without debt, has about 150 dresses and outfits, enjoys the arts and fine dining and takes from late Sept to early May off, and has no debt. That just is not possible in most countries with high cost of living.She thinks it is normal to have 3/4 of play and free time doing things few people could afford in the west. She is a lawyer by profession but became a registered tour guide because she liked the freedom and having so much time off..
Wow...thank you for these videos. I am considering moving to Russia to live on my pension and perhaps some work that would utilize my work history in law, and the English and German languages.

“What’s the difference between American women and Russian women” is one of my favorite topics. I really hope Russian women realize they’re superior and that they should never follow the suicidal example set by American women and their feminist insanity.
I've never heard a Russian person with a southern accent haha.
Love the channel, i'm an American and this American guy seems kinda awkward lol. But i do envy his russian speaking skills
Kyle seems borderline sociopathic.
He described Russian women exactly way they are. I used to married to Ukrainian Russian woman. First she was very loving in the end cold like an ice. Just within two years she took half my investment. Which was 100% mine. I still believe Russian women make wives than Western women.
My Russian friends in a year and a half treated me better than any of my American friends have treated me in my 22 years of existence. They helped me in a time of need and they were (and still are) the best friends I've ever had. I'm glad to hear they're like that over there, and not just here in the US.
Were you born in usa? Whats wrong with US friendships?
In France they also say hi once per day. It appears rude to say hi a 2nd time (like you forgot them)
We also do say hi and nod when we encounter the same person in 1 day.
I think it's just being nice, especially if that person is your neighbour.
I was at work and I literally sat on the floor to do something and my Russian coworker yelled at me to get up. Lol it’s funny that you mentioned that. She told me I’d get sick, I was like wahhh... ok. I just did as I was told so she’d stop nagging.
it's not nagging, she cares about you
She is just more informed about what diseases can cold bring to you. And she KNOWS that it's really true.
My wife and I had 5 children and for a time we lived in a farmhouse that was over 100 yrs old. We never let our children sit or play on the floor without proper clothing. Any intelligent person knows that heat rises and the coldest spot in the room is foot level!! Anytime the door to the outdoors is opened, the cold blast races right across the floor and hits the toddlers square in the face. If you have a leaky window, the cold settles on the floor. Just stand in front of an upright freezer with bare feet (if you have one) when you open it to remove food items. You will feel the icy air fall right out of it and hit your feet!! There aren't many people who tend to heat their basements as they would their bedrooms, so the floor directly above it is never warmer than your basement temperature. Hence, Russians know what they say about the floor. :)
For a girl or a woman to sit on cold stone,rock or floor gonna bring gynaecological problems..she was not nagging,she was worried for you’re health and future kids wellbeing,didn’t want you to later lay in hospitals getting gynaecological treatments..for kids it’s even worst as they have less fat on ass to protect them,many kids after sitting on cold floor later pee in beds,or have trouble peeing,girls get cystitis as minimum..
As an American I would love to visit Moscow and meet the Russian people
Really enjoyed this. Thank you both!
I'm an American moving to Moscow, so it's obvious that I totally approve that you have a dog walker.
Here in Alaska people tend to keep their houses quite warm in winter. This is especially true in Fairbanks where winter temps are commonly below -30 C. Even businesses and hotels are quite warm. So might just be a thing common to all cold places. I assumed it comes from generations of relying on wood for heat which makes your house ridiculously hot and hard to control temp.
Your dog is so cute! I love his fluffy ears.
I had a wonderful time when I visited Russia and also found the people to be very welcoming and curious. We got to spend some time at a local school and they put on a presentation for us, they were so excited to meet us and asked all sorts of questions. I really would love to return!

Which city btw? If it's Moscow or Saint Petersburg those are very nice places nowadays, very clean and fun, winter can be harsh, but I personally miss russian winters, I've been living in SoCal for over a decade and moving back to Moscow soon and I can't wait, it's easier for me cause I'm russian and have family there and some of my friends still remember me lol, but I'm sure you'll find american expats groups etc, I'd probably be happy to visit one myself when I move just to make the transition easier :)
Life is really not that different from in russia compared to the us nowadays, people are the same everywhere when you dig a tiny bit deeper and I've dealt with people from all over the world, the only thing is almost impossible to adjust to is not being able to turn right on red and if you're a driver this will likely make you really angry quite a few times before you get used to it lol

I am a second generation American, who is half Russian (my father's side), and I am married to a Ukrainian woman, who was a chef in her own restaurant. I have been to Russia and The Ukraine many times over the last 40+ years. I find that people from the former USSR, are warm, welcoming and loving, the was it was when I grew up in New York City. Today in the U.S. many people whom I know live thousands of miles away from family and close friends, and they think it is okay, and that I am weird, for missing that closeness that we had when I was young, and is still very much prevalent in the former USSR. Every time I go to Russia, and/or The Ukraine, I am treated by everyone like a lost returning son. It is wonderful, and I love it !!!! Thank you for sharing this video, I so much enjoyed watching it.
This was pleasant and friendly as you say. Thanks Kyle.
As russian I must say, that I enjoyed to listen Kyle and his stories about Russia. Thanks!
That concept of women being behind men is a beautiful concept that has almost been erased from our society. If Russians still have this it is because they have been preserved by God. I wish I could have been raised in a society like that.

Omg. I wanted to write my own critique of this video, but you said it all. I agree!
I know what you mean and this is the second time I've seen him. I find him though, more edgy and uptight rather than arrogant. In fact I have a suspicion that he's nervous being interviewed on camera and is trying to physically clinch himself together to retain some kind of cool which can then make some of his comments come out disjointed, incomplete, etc. I look at his eyes and I see terror. At least that might be part of it. Jes' sayin'.
I felt that too. And his whole Russian women do it better even if they’re being crazy. Sounds like a fetish
He does sound arrogant and stupid.
He is just not a typical American. He has got the vibe of a Slavic person. I’m from Latvia .. and he is speaking as a typical Latvian 😁

Uber drivers are supposed to talk due to the 'customer service' culture of the USA. They get graded on talking, unless the passenger requests no talking.
Russia Plus is a great channel. Very happy to enjoy the freedom to visit Rusdia, if only on You Tube.
This was great!! I learned a lot and really was able to see different perspectives
People are all the same all over the world regardless of nationality
There's an air of smugness to this guy, and it makes him very unlikeable.
I am relieved to hear someone else notice .
I couldn't have said it any better🤣💯💯💯
Feel sorry for your misunderstanding .
Yup
He wants a Russian woman but no Russian woman would have him, trying for eight years in Russia, GO BACK to America where you fit in with your arrogance.
Russian culture..are amazing..i.like the Russians..🤣🤣😂😂👊👊👍possibly..i want to stay..and move to Russia
so video was very informative and im happy i pick this video by chance
So great to hear, and I totlly agree.. Rusians are so friendly and taking great care of foreingers..
Dog is beautiful! Russian speaks just like an American...thank you for the great video. Happy to hear you are doing well over there. Food supply would be much safer there.
Interview him how he learned Russian. I already know the basics but it's a big chaotic regardless.
Florian H. Hey Florian you can follow my channel and I’ll explain it! It’s easier than you think
This guy is a weird american !!! Dog walkers are very rare in the USA!! Also we only say Hi once a day also !!! Cheers from Texas !!!
As an American, I can't stand this guy being interviewed. Don't know if he's trying to be funny or what...
Squid WithGear ikr ? I was annoyed and i’m not even American haha
Yeah, some of the things he says make me suspicious.
His a Whimpy American
I'm an American. Yes, he definitely got under my skin a bit (meaning: I sort of didn't like him).
Ya agreed. I know my family and friends here in Cleveland would not like that dude...myself as well
It looks like Kyle and I have been in Russia nearly the same amount of time. But he hasn't learned one aspect of Russia that is certainly almost universal in Russia, Russian are blunt and to the point. Kyle is trying to be too nice. Russian are rude! But I've gotten over it. It's just part of life here. When I first moved here I tip-toed a lot around issues that might produce problems. But I realized that I didn't need to, if you don't like something tell them. Russians like the honesty. Lots of differences in Russia but like Kyle I've grown into them and have accepted them. But we are all different people and see things in different ways. Good video.
Russians are polite, к твоему сведению.
@@uglaegilsdottir Not in public
@@sher56man You are confusing polite and fake. Russians are polite, not fake.
@@uglaegilsdottir I see what you are saying and agree. But we are talking about two different things. I see rude behavior in public all the time, I ask about this to my friends and they tell me it's true. A very high percentage of my friends are Russian. Are you going to argue with them as well?
Well..I'm a Brit.but I can relate with what he says..
I'm American, I'm a dog walker and I want to live in Russia 🙋🏻♂️
Come to us

I have been world traveler. I have found people everywhere I've been, to be friendly, even generous.
Thanks!! Great friendly interview.
Comfortably awkward. Informative yet strange...
I agree:)
He strikes me as some sort of soft handed city dwelling freaky freak! A dog walker? Who the hell has a dog in an apartment!? Dogs are for guarding livestock.
@@attilathehun2537 lol I thought and to be honest still do think he might be ..............................................gay
Слава - молодец, oчень естественный, a вот гостя легкая надменность тона выдаёт узость ума и попытку скрыть неуверенность в себе.
Спасибо. Ну Кайл своеобразный:) надменность немного есть, да. Но он хороший парень.
I wish our government (Democrats) here in the states would stop pushing Russia and the USA apart.
We have issues with the Russian government not with Russian people. Their government is not really an ally to America. Same could be said about our government against Russian leaders.
I like the "Greet once per day principle". We have a variant of it here in Sweden; I've noticed that you HAVE to greet someone the first time you see a person that day, the second time is optional and less cheery, perhaps a nod, the rest of the day is fine to just pass without acknowledging.
Yes, I lived in the U.S., and most of my close friends are Russians and they are very hospitable and very good cooks. I never enjoyed visiting my American friends because they don't know how to be hospitable and never cook but whenever they used to come over they would eat everything I served them with great joy.
Another awesome video, and that dog is gorgeous!
The puppy's so cute!
Russia is a great country with nice people. Do not believe all the negative news in the western countries.
Yes. the cooking. American women are way behind their counterparts from Asia, Europe and Latin America. That old saying that 'the way to a man's heart is thru his stomach' is true.
God FORBID a woman wants to get behind her man! 🙄
Lol I actually thought the American was Russian
Hiring someone to walk or take care of your dog is werid in America too. lol
It is. It is something rich people would do, hire professional dog walkers to walk there dogs.
Awwww! Love the doggie!
All women want to be protected. American women also want to be protected. Problem is people confuse equal rights with equal abilty. I can be just as smart but I cannot fight a thief in the night. And I am okay with that as a woman. Russian women are really smart in proudly proclaiming this reality.
So where is Kyle from? USA is a big country with a lot of cultures. Indiana is a different place than Alabama. Flyover territory is different than left coasts. Most of us in Midwest do not say hi to people we have seen frequently during the day.
Thomas Maloney hey, I’m from Maine.... In the Midwest you don’t say hi every time you see a person???
Thomas Maloney I don’t say hi every time l see the same person. Never.
i'm half russian and half italian i live's in the usa i cook
Having spent time both in Rostov on Don and Moscow I found the general public there to be the "Salt of the Earth".
I live in Rostov on Don
On dog walking: I think Russians have more availability during the day to even come back home and walk their dog or have a ‘short day’ if they decide to. The salary may not be that great but the ability to play with your schedule makes it easier on dog owners. Same reason for not getting a nanny to take care of your kid for the first 3 years because it’s acceptable by the society to be a stay at home mom for this long. Another thing, it’s ok to ask your family or your friends for a favor, like you can expect your parents to take care of your kids and dogs without having to pay them:) You are also expected to take care of your parents when they get old. I hope this explained it a little bit:)
In Russia, it is not accepted after the birth of a child to leave his first three years with a nanny. And it's not even about income. It is probably more about cultural, national, historical and religious values and principles. In Russia, for example, it is not customary to leave one small child on the Playground of a supermarket, even if there are educators who will look after the children. If you have a child on the Playground, be sure that someone one of the parents should stay and look after the child. Leaving a child with a stranger is like leaving him. Russia is probably not just a different culture, it is a different civilization.
