    I hope everyone is enjoying these apartment tours. A big thank you to my friend earl, who was visiting Moscow from England. And giving me a chance to make a video about his daily rental apartment in Moscow. I have left the link to the apartment in the video description. It's listed on a site called Avito, which is something similar to facebook market place in Russia. Do you want to see more place like this?

      In Russia, heating is very good compared to Europe. We have a lot of gas, oil, coal, cheap electricity. Utility bills are 5-10 times cheaper. I pay $0.81 for gas unlimitedly in St. Petersburg. I can literally burn all 4 comforts 24 hours a month. The price will still be $0.81
      It is now +25.6 Celsius in my apartment
      When Russians come to Germany or England, they freeze there, no matter how strange it may seem. The locals have a hard time with +18 degrees

      The owner of the apartment divided the apartment into 2 parts. This is visible when Russell enters the first door
      This is both legal and not entirely legal. You will not be able to sell half of the apartment, but you can earn income from two micro-rooms
      In general, the apartment is nominally 50 square meters. 1 kitchen, 1 room. It is divided into 2 micro-apartments of 25 meters each

Now the look here, is fantastic for my own, particular, taste, and if it actually, were a one or two bedroom apartment then it would look outstanding. Anything better than the all, bloody, white and grey all the bloody, time. At least this place is cozy and has some warmth and charm to it, but it is a room and not an apartment by any definition.

    🇨🇦 Canada 🕊️✍️ Greetings Russell❗😊 😑 Thank you, you are quite a 🕊️ help to some of us concerning our decision-making about places/apartments in 🇷🇺 Russia. We 🤗 appreciate you❗😊
    ~
    Again, it is always good to compare apartments to 👀 see which one would best suit each our individual needs.
    It is a good idea to rent an apartment instead of a hotel room, more private.
    🇷🇺 Russia is getter 🥇🏆 better by the day❗🙌

    I wouldn’t want to live there but I would want to stay there a hotel room temporarily. The view at night was stunning.
    The wall paper was a bit busy on a permanent basis but for even a couple months it was fine. Do you know how many ch a comparable apt would sell for in that general location.

    Dear Russell, I don't have enough imagination to justify the daily rent of this (or similar) apartment in Krasnogorsk for such a price. I am not ready to waste time and effort on trips to the city center. Therefore, when I come to Moscow from my Siberian city, I rent an apartment no further than two metro stations from the Garden Ring.

    • @_V_G
      @_V_G 17 днів тому +2

      It's very affordable. The city center is reachable in approximately 1 hour, for example via M2 line&MCC. Also, it may be convenient to live there if one is attending some businesses events in Crocus.

    • @TravellingwithRussell
      @TravellingwithRussell  17 днів тому

      @_V_G Exactly, a lot of these apartments in these building get rented out when the conventions are on.

    • @TravellingwithRussell
      @TravellingwithRussell  17 днів тому

      @newsunderfoot I think so too, a little closer to the center would be nice, however the walk to the metro isn't that bad walking along the river and over the bridge.

    Hi Russell, I live in Krasnogorsk. And I have to correct you, Krasnogorsk is not a district of Moscow. It's a city and is the capital of the Moscow region. Before, we also had snezhkom, the biggest indoor ski of europe and only one in Russia.

    I wonder if the apartments are less if you rent monthly. For a 31-day month, it would be $809. I guess this would be okay if you plan to visit Moscow for 2 weeks. Oh, and I agree with a lot of the comments, the wallpaper is hideous.

      it's an alternative to a hotel room for short term stay in Moscow (and is just one of thousands of possibilities). For example there are hostels 2-5 floors high only and totally comfortable and very reasonably priced too.
      In any way, you comparing where you live - with a short term option in a completely different part of the world in an absolutely different context - makes no sense.

      Russel is simply opening our eyes to Russia. This country has unfortunately suffered so much mudslinging by snobbish western media and states. Visiting a new country, perhaps the number one objective is where to stay. It's appropriate that he share his insights on available, affordable accomodation.
      Again, UA-cam is a vast media scape that allows us to take regular breaks and escapes, to skip content we don't really care for...
