I love and respect Russian people. Normal people in all countries of the world, always pay the price of politics. I love Russian culture❤🙏Keep strong❤🙏Greetings from Greece.
I’ve renovated two homes here in Canada. I’m pretty handy with basic trades and skills …I enjoy the work. This is why I’m interested in watching what people such as yourselves have done to your homes. I’m fascinated by Moscow apartments because of the different challenges …. space challenges…. structural challenges. You’ve both done phenomenal work here. It’s inviting and super organized at the same time. Aside from the exposed pipes…you would never know that this was built in 1969. I’m assuming that you studied English in Russia or you lived/studied in Western Europe… because your language skills are tops… you’ve got all the expressions nailed down. Smart couple…smart apartment. Kudos ! Happy Holidays🇨🇦👍🎄🎁🥂
My husband is Albanian and also handy with basic trades and skills. We are now relocating in my hometown in Quebec so would love to watch your work if you have it documented here on YT
Your cat is an absolute darling! I like your apartment, your kitchen is cute and you made the best out of the space you have. Overall it's a well maintained apartment and a nice clean home.
I live in Canada, and it’s so funny that we have so many commonalities in the places we live. No matter what country you’re from, you can always find things in common. I love all of your Christmas decorations. You’ve made yourself a beautiful home. Much love. ❤️
I‘m from germany and I find it so interessting to see how people live in other countries! Your Apartment is very nice and cute 🥰 I enjoyed your roomtour very much because you are so down to earth and thankfull for everything! Your living room is beautiful, I absolutely love it! And your pets are so sweet 💕
irene, You have the loveliest apartment.It is so calm and tranquil.I really like all the white furniture from IKEA.Your dog and cat are so sweet.You have done a really excellent job of creating a very pleasant home.You also speak very good English.I would have a terrible time with learning Russian! Take care of yourself in this unsettled time.I will be thinking of you from San Diego.
Hi from the U.S. I just wanted to mention that I really like your kitchen wallpaper. In the U.S. you can often find a house that has maybe been decorated by an Interior Designer and the house will have mostly solid colors on most the walls in the house and then you may come to a bathroom, like the small guest bathroom downstairs and it often will have a really wild, loud wallpaper. I just love seeing a room with a wild, loud wallpaper and your kitchen reminds me of that. Your English and expressions are terrific! I like you basically minimal style.
Hi! I came across your video.. maybe because of everything that’s going on. I just wanted to say that we also stand with the people of Russia and hope regular people don’t get too affected by the sanctions. I hope you keep making videos and wish all the blessings to you and your family. Love from NYC.
VERY NICE, HOPE THINGS WILL CALM DOWN SOON SO WE CAN TRAVEL AGAIN. I M FRANCO AMERICAN, MULTI LINGUAL, BEEN STUDYING RUSSIAN FOR A YEAR. GOD BLESS FROM ARKANSAS U.S A.
Nice apartment. I like the dark blue wall in the storeage area and the fairy lights. We call the rack a drying rack. There are suspended sound protection items for the ceiling. Anf your front door can be sound protected. Spasibo for sharing. Paka! Your dog and cat are beautiful and sweet.
I love how you have added pretty colors and decorations to your apartment! It looks vibrant and lovely! Here's a tip about the expanding yellow foam from renovations. You can actually use a knife and cut off the bumpy parts, because it is a "closed-cell" foam. When you cut it, the foam still insulates because it doesn't lose that quality. Then once the foam has the bumpy parts sliced off with a knife, you can paint the foam! Might want to try a small area first :) Thanks for the tour of your cute apartment! You and your husband did a wonderful job with the renovations. 🤩
Very nice apartment Best I've seen in apartment views in Russia. I love to see how people live around the world. Love your sense of humor. Found you today, subscribed
You could create a wood cover to place over the gas tubes if you want to hide them by just creating a L shape that attaches to the wall. Styrofoam board will work too if you prefer temporary change that’s easy to modify by covering with wallpaper, painting a design or maybe adding small shelves off of it for additional storage space. You could even use wide pipe cut in half to cover the tubes if you want a round edge. It really wouldn’t be hard to cover and will still be possible to remove if access is needed for maintenance.
😂😂😂The very first thing I fell in love with was your wallpaper in the kitchen 😅 I absolutely love it 😮thank you to all four of you for allowing us into your beautiful home!! You are so organised and your pets delightful ❤
Your apartment is lovely and inviting.Your right it doesn’t look like the typical Russian apartments I seen on other UA-cam channels.I love all the different colors you used and the choice of furniture goes beautiful with each room.Great video of your apartment.Sending love,luck and happiness to you from Philadelphia (USA).
My wife owns a two-bedroom apartment in Samara and stays there while attending school. I've never seen it, now I understand why she has setup my\our home in America so strangely, strange by American standards.
I like your interior style and it’s so true, it doesn’t need much money to have a nice apartment and you can do a lot yourself, great work! 👏🏻 I also love the kitchen furniture and I think your kitchen would look gorgeous too with a plain maybe white wallpaper colour Greetings from Germany 🥰
I enjoyed seeing your nicely decorated apartment. I have been a videographer for many years so if you don't mind I will suggest that you could do this tour in under 10 minutes; maybe even less. It will keep people's attention longer. Wishing you the best!
@@irenezarubina I find it hard in general to watch any longer videos because I lose patience but also because there are other videos that I see on the right that draw my attention. Be careful what you say...
You really have a knack (natural talent) for decorating. That knack could be turned into a lucrative career in many places in the world. Beautiful apartment. Your natural talent and maybe some training could really set you up for a great career. Greetings from Colorado, USA. Really nice pets too. God bless and keep you. You really have a sweet personality too and great English.
You did very well making your little apartment look very nice and homey and not cluttered especially the little kitchen Which looks actually so cute the way you have it done. Believe it or not in Oxnard California U.S.A. a friend rented a one bedroom senior apartment and her kitchen was much smaller than yours, you could stand in one spot and wash dishes, cook and get stuff out of the refrigerator without moving at all the freezer Only had space for a ice tray and maybe a small TV dinner and that would be pushing it. Probably take your kitchen and cut in half and fill with the counter sink and stove/oven and small refrigerator.haf only enough space for one person and the dining area was bigger and that you could stand and touch your foot to that space. Thank you very much for showing us your apartment, hope you get to a New place that you will be very happy in with your husband and fur babies 💜🐾
Thank you! I love your wallpaper in the kitchen. It is full of life and very expendive looking. The floor in the kitchen is also gorgeous. This seems to be unique to Russia in design. It looks expensive.
Small spaces present a challenge, but you are minimalists and very good decorators so everything looks great. I wouldn’t worry about exposed pipes but would cover the exposed calking around the doors and windows.
Hello! Greetings from beautiful Kentucky! I enjoyed your home tour! I think you did a great job renovating your apartment. I loved your kitchen. The wallpaper gave it an elegant personal touch! I do understand why you would like white in the future. The nice thing about the cabinets white is then any color of paint on the walls or wallpaper looks good with it. I liked your living room and bedroom too. The only things I didn’t like was the toilet and bathroom separate and no sink with the toilet. Maybe you could put a little sink in with the toilet. Because if you accidentally got something nasty on your hands, then you have to touch several doorknobs to get to a sink to wash your hands. Your cat is beautiful!
I know very little about Russian apartments, but based on lots of videos I have seen about New York City apartments, and some apartments in other countries, your apartment seems OK to me. There are a lot of people in New York city that live in apartments very similar to yours. And you should know that there are a lot of Americans that live in places that are not as nice as yours. There are areas of the United States where people would be glad to have your apartment. It is not so bad where we live, but there are places in the USA where people are living in campers and tents because the cost of living is so high. I will tell you what I tell myself: I don't have a big fancy house, but I am thankful for what I have, it could be a lot worse. My grandkids each have their own room and we have plenty of room and heat and plenty of food. There are people in South America and Africa and other places that are living in tin shacks with no electricity. Most people in America are not rich, despite what you might think.
Beautifully done. Love the colours, especially the green bedroom. People have apartments, or called flats, too, in UK that are not anywhere near as nice as this. Many not rich, and getting poorer by the day, in UK. And you keep your home so clean and not full of clutter, (unnecessary items), lovely. Well done
I love your apartment!!! I have that same dish towel in mine:) You have wonderful taste ❤ Also your cat and dog are so cute! Sending love from Memphis Tennessee USA
Cute apartment. So sorry you moved from Russia. America is no longer a country I wish to live; and I would LOVE to move to Russia; but I'm a little old now. Best of luck in your journey of life. GOD Bless.
Hi.. this is my first time watching something on your channel. Your apartment looks quite bright and attractive. Your view must be beautiful in the spring.
@@irenezarubina I love the way u have taken the time to respond to all of the people that have made a comment on ur channel. That is rare n very thoughtful. Hello 👋 from Kentucky USA 🇺🇸 it would b very hard for me to live n such a small space. I have a big home on 5 acres with an 80 foot drop waterfall a small pond three big bedrooms three full baths with a jet tub in one of my baths I live in the country with very few houses around me lots of trees so it was interesting to see how most people live in Russia thank you for showing us your home
@@irenezarubina well if u make it to America u can come b my guest. And we can go visit Nashville it is only an hour drive from my home. If u like American country music Nashville is a must see
I don't usually watch videos about homes but you were interesting so stayed to watch. You speak English wonderfully. Also your renovations have been done well and tastefully.
Hello Russia from California! You're doggie looking out at the window was so funny. I hope you're neighbor is NOT always that noisy. Hi kittie cat. Green wall with curtains in the bedroom is lovely. Thank you for sharing and wishing you, your husband and your pets the very best in life.
Thank you for sharing your home, you have it looking lovely. My home looks like an old person lives here because I could only afford other peoples old furniture, as I don’t live near a shop like Ikea and I can’t drive. Hopefully one day I can buy more modern furniture, but I like spending my money on other things ⛵️🪡🧶🧵😀. I have subscribed so I can watch your other videos :-) Billie, from the north west of England.
I love the colours you have chosen to paint your walls. You mentioned not having a dinning area, perhaps you could use some of your spare room? We did this in our first apartment before starting our family and it worked well! Tfs, Laura x
Or, if you move the 2 drawers in the living room nearer together into the lounge seating area, there is room for a small 2-4seat dining table with either folding table/chairs, as you enter the room (to make different living/dining space 'zones' maybe. Good quality ones, and foldable for space, cheap to buy in IKEA.0
Remind me the apartment I grew up in China. Three rooms, 14, 13, 9 square metres, plus a kitchen, a bathroom, and a balcony. Lived with three generations. Thank you, love your video.
@@irenezarubina if you live abroad, what do you plan to do with apartment? Rent? I would also like to know where is this housing project located. Is there public transportation to work?
lovely front door, like the divided bathroom, here, only the very old houses have the divided bath. they always made sense to me. the kitchen is cute and you have great views, love trees. i love ikea! i am not a big fan of wallpaper. your gas stove is super. you are lucky to be allowed 2 pets. it is a cute space and seems to have everything you need. macbook pro! you are definetly upper mid class especially after seeing your beauty collection. your dog is adorable.
Yes I have seen the other apartments. Yours definitely looks better. And good that you got that stuff from IKEA already. I wish we could afford to buy furniture but we can't We have the old stuff that we came with. And some furniture we found on the street. A few things we bought when I was married. My parents living room set which actually matches which is so different from when I was growing up. When I was growing up the living room was green and brown and black and red and pink. Now it's blue and white. It's awesome. And it's full of my brother's junk. And he wants to get a new recliner and I said yes but only if it's light blue. Because everything is the same color for a change. For once in my life. And of course the white with the light colored wood
Hi from France! First I thought: she's very young, a teen? And she speaks so well English, is she really a Russian girl? :-) Nice apartment, clear, clean. I love your pets : your fluffy happy cat, your quiet cute fox-dog. And I love your kitchen wallpaper too, you could color it, add green, to change it whitout (of before) replacing. And you could paint gaz tubes as plants running along the wall. Noisy neighbors... I got too. When in the night, I was ashame other neighbors think it was me.
Your apartment is lovely and you should be very proud. Ikea is popular in England too and we love it. I love their styles and they are good value. Well done with all your hard work. By the way I think your kitchen wallpaper is lovely!
I don’t know if you want to mask some of the noise - but with that computer in the bedroom you could play videos for 10 hours (while you’re sleeping) with fan noise, ‘white noise’. When you first hear it it’ll be loud and annoying, but because it’s constant your brain will adjust to it in 15 minutes. I play those videos to sleep so I don’t hear other sounds. Changed my life.
Maybe play something loud and relaxing. I love listening to the rain videos and they mask the noise. But maybe it’s not a problem for you. I would go CRAZY hearing my neighbours that much!!!
Hi Irene, I enjoyed your video and I really like how nice and modern you and your husband made your apartment. I am a huge fan of Russian volleyball and figure skating videos on youtube. Take care and hope to see more. Don
@@irenezarubina Hey thanks for your comment. Here's a skating video that just came out today. You can fast forward to 4:32:30 for the Russian girls. They did great!! ua-cam.com/video/ZmUTtZvdfdk/v-deo.html`
I do like those dressers from ikea. I may have to look at what ikea has. I normally don’t buy from ikea because I don’t like metal anything. I have a lot of bamboo because it last forever. Your dog is cute. I do like how you have all the dressers and closet match around the home. I would fix that room with windows into a functioning room. You can make that room into many ways . It will be much easier to sell or rent out making sure all the areas look nice. A unique idea for that room putting those stick on bird feeders and it can be enter. Try getting a washing machine that a dryer too. Get rid of all clutter. I’ve noticed a lot more Russian people on you tube since Putins war in ukraine. It’s sad as he’s put everyone in danger in Russia. I hope you stay safe. Find someone with a small Dog. I have two chihuahuas and I have a collapsible cage which is easy to clean and when not in use folds up like a thin suitcase.
I love your apt. Its small. But it looks cozy and inviting. I do like the kitchen and the wall paper. Is nice. But your married. Where's your husbands stuff at. I just see your stuff mostly. Very cool
Watching your video reminds me of the first apartment my wife and I bought in one of the former Russia-controlled countries, back in the mid-1990s. Similar technology (panel built), lots of investment needed, and very modest space, but it was possible to turn it into a nice place to live. Good luck, you are doing a great job! And I hope you will soon transform not only your apartment but the entire country into a positive, good place to live. I do not want to go too much into politics, you know very well what I mean.
I’m just starting to watch Russian apt tours and life in Russia for the regular everyday people. It’s very interesting. The living space was very large with a lot of room it seems.
When I lived in Massachusetts we kept that stuff in the closet in the bedroom which was an attic so the ceiling sloped down And we just had one shelf and it wasn't very big.
I love and respect Russian people. Normal people in all countries of the world, always pay the price of politics. I love Russian culture❤🙏Keep strong❤🙏Greetings from Greece.
@@irenezarubina ❤❤❤🙏
I’ve renovated two homes here in Canada. I’m pretty handy with basic trades and skills …I enjoy the work.

I have been renovating my own apartment in Australia. It makes me proud to see everyone renovating and decorating there homes and apartments.
I love how you have added pretty colors and decorations to your apartment! It looks vibrant and lovely!
Here's a tip about the expanding yellow foam from renovations. You can actually use a knife and cut off the bumpy parts, because it is a "closed-cell" foam. When you cut it, the foam still insulates because it doesn't lose that quality. Then once the foam has the bumpy parts sliced off with a knife, you can paint the foam! Might want to try a small area first :)

lovely front door, like the divided bathroom, here, only the very old houses have the divided bath. they always made sense to me. the kitchen is cute and you have great views, love trees. i love ikea! i am not a big fan of wallpaper. your gas stove is super. you are lucky to be allowed 2 pets. it is a cute space and seems to have everything you need. macbook pro! you are definetly upper mid class especially after seeing your beauty collection.
your dog is adorable.
2 days ago, they posted a video with an update titled
"Live from Ukraine, Day 15."
Try putting the little table near your lounge it will give you somewhere to put a drink 🍸 and a nice plant 🪴 for decoration.
I love the apartment and I really like the kitchen wall paper. I think it looks really nice.
Yes I have seen the other apartments. Yours definitely looks better. And good that you got that stuff from IKEA already. I wish we could afford to buy furniture but we can't We have the old stuff that we came with. And some furniture we found on the street. A few things we bought when I was married. My parents living room set which actually matches which is so different from when I was growing up. When I was growing up the living room was green and brown and black and red and pink. Now it's blue and white. It's awesome. And it's full of my brother's junk. And he wants to get a new recliner and I said yes but only if it's light blue. Because everything is the same color for a change. For once in my life. And of course the white with the light colored wood
Cool apartments, really nice decorations......love your dog, however I adore your car....
Very pretty apartment! Love your adorable pets too! My favorite perfume Jo Malone. Jan from Atlanta, Georgia. ❤
Hi from France!
First I thought: she's very young, a teen? And she speaks so well English, is she really a Russian girl? :-)
Nice apartment, clear, clean.
I love your pets : your fluffy happy cat, your quiet cute fox-dog. And I love your kitchen wallpaper too, you could color it, add green, to change it whitout (of before) replacing. And you could paint gaz tubes as plants running along the wall.
Noisy neighbors... I got too. When in the night, I was ashame other neighbors think it was me.
@@irenezarubina Can your dog translate what is barking your neighbor's dog ?
Perhaps screaming "shut up, stupid humans, I can't rest!"
Your apartment is lovely and you should be very proud. Ikea is popular in England too and we love it. I love their styles and they are good value.
Well done with all your hard work. By the way I think your kitchen wallpaper is lovely!
You can put bubble wrap on the windows to insulate from the noice outside. I love your dog and your show.
Hi from America! Cute apartment tour. I would rather cook with gas than electric. If the power goes out, you can still cook with gas.
Dear Irene, congratulations on your lovely and cosy apartment
your home looks better than the average apartment in New York City
@@irenezarubina yes and rent is very high
And your dog and cat are sweet, too....
Good job, it looks nice!
I don’t know if you want to mask some of the noise - but with that computer in the bedroom you could play videos for 10 hours (while you’re sleeping) with fan noise, ‘white noise’. When you first hear it it’ll be loud and annoying, but because it’s constant your brain will adjust to it in 15 minutes. I play those videos to sleep so I don’t hear other sounds. Changed my life.
Maybe play something loud and relaxing. I love listening to the rain videos and they mask the noise. But maybe it’s not a problem for you. I would go CRAZY hearing my neighbours that much!!!
@@irenezarubina 🤣
Hi Irene, I enjoyed your video and I really like how nice and modern you and your husband made your apartment. I am a huge fan of Russian volleyball and figure skating videos on youtube. Take care and hope to see more. Don
@@irenezarubina Hey thanks for your comment. Here's a skating video that just came out today. You can fast forward to 4:32:30 for the Russian girls. They did great!! ua-cam.com/video/ZmUTtZvdfdk/v-deo.html`
I am from France and find your flat pretty cosy and the kitchen is modern .Don' t change the wall paper in the kitchen .I find it Nice and original
Hello from the United States. I love the wall paper except for the dogs renovations lol
I do like those dressers from ikea. I may have to look at what ikea has. I normally don’t buy from ikea because I don’t like metal anything. I have a lot of bamboo because it last forever. Your dog is cute. I do like how you have all the dressers and closet match around the home. I would fix that room with windows into a functioning room. You can make that room into many ways . It will be much easier to sell or rent out making sure all the areas look nice. A unique idea for that room putting those stick on bird feeders and it can be enter. Try getting a washing machine that a dryer too. Get rid of all clutter. I’ve noticed a lot more Russian people on you tube since Putins war in ukraine. It’s sad as he’s put everyone in danger in Russia. I hope you stay safe. Find someone with a small Dog. I have two chihuahuas and I have a collapsible cage which is easy to clean and when not in use folds up like a thin suitcase.
I love your apt. Its small. But it looks cozy and inviting. I do like the kitchen and the wall paper. Is nice. But your married. Where's your husbands stuff at. I just see your stuff mostly. Very cool
Watching your video reminds me of the first apartment my wife and I bought in one of the former Russia-controlled countries, back in the mid-1990s. Similar technology (panel built), lots of investment needed, and very modest space, but it was possible to turn it into a nice place to live. Good luck, you are doing a great job! And I hope you will soon transform not only your apartment but the entire country into a positive, good place to live. I do not want to go too much into politics, you know very well what I mean.
Nice light fixture in the storage room ❤
Hello from Sweden
IKEA's good
Nice home you have
I love your kitchen especially the wall paper ❤
I’m just starting to watch Russian apt tours and life in Russia for the regular everyday people. It’s very interesting. The living space was very large with a lot of room it seems.
UA-cam algorithm is just showing me Russian and Ukrainian apartment tours lol
I want the Dreamcatcher in your bedroom.....lol I love the blue room.
Love it we American's could learn a lesson or two from you Russian's beautiful apartment ❤❤❤❤
Thank you 🫶🏻💖
Your apt. looks fantastic and all your hard work shows. Your home is beautiful!!👍🏻
I love that dog beautiful 😍
When I lived in Massachusetts we kept that stuff in the closet in the bedroom which was an attic so the ceiling sloped down And we just had one shelf and it wasn't very big.
I love this! I'd set my place up almost like this! It's nice to see how others live from different parts of the world, we're not so different. 😊♥️🌈
@@irenezarubina I live on Cape cod, Massachusetts. I lived in Presque Isle, Maine for 11 years and loved it, love the woods, the freedom there.
