  • 🇦🇲 The Nagorno-Karabakh region which had been quiet for the last decade recently boiled over again when Azerbaijan mounted an attack which led to it conquering much of the territory it had lost in the previous war. I flew into a bitterly cold Yerevan in early January with the intention of heading down to the capital Stepanakert to see what was happening there since the war. Would I make it or not?

  • @draori2348

    The ending was something else. Driving back to feed the stray dogs and meeting a few soldiers out of nowhere--- ranting about how fucked up things are that they have to fight a war, all while in a quest to explore everything soviet. The rawness of everything just fits in together perfectly. This might just be one of my favorite videos you put out along with your vlog in Mauritania!

      It also reminds me of one time when I drove to Serbia. I was with my cousin. It was just after the war ended. He had a serbian girlfriend, now his wife. We had to wait 2 hours at the border. So far so good... except we are Dutch.. So I was a little nervous. But then my cousin starts freaking out. I smoked weed at the time and he suddenly got the idea that I might have some (forgotten) weed in the car.... he starts searching the car frantically. I assured him there was nothing in the car and I didn't take anything with me. But wasn't quite able to convince him.Luckily I WAS able to convince him to sit back in his chair and stfu! It was a good thing I was driving because if they asked him ANYTHING we would have been fucked! (it would at least have added 1 hour of travel time)
      And then I drove to Austria another time.. This time I had 10 grams of weed on me and got pulled over at the border.They took my passport inside and told me to park in front of a reflective window. I sat there, opened the window a bit to smoke a cigarette, wink wink notch notch notch and smelled some fresh mountain air.. and had enough time to think about what I was doing. I promised myself there and then to NEVER DO ANYTHING STUPID LIKE THAT ever again. And I didn't. They let me go without a search.

    Mr. Bald, please never stop making videos. This is pure art in it's best way. If I may choose between Netflix, Television, going to the cinema or your videos I definitely sit back, relax and I'll watch all your episodes over and over again. The Soviet parts are definitely the best of the best! Lots of respect for this humble, real human being!

    The ending of this video gave me chills. It's one thing to wake-up and think "time for work" as opposed to a complete and polar opposite mental preparation such as "time for war". It must have been such surreal moment to catch that exchange in real time. What a visceral response. Well done with this video, Mr. Bald. Exceptionally done.
