1. Dont' ever change. 2. Keep the wonderful videos about Russia coming, I love them. 3. Don't ever, ever think that the US or the West are better. What you show us is beautiful in a genuine, organic, healthy human sense and we in the West are losing, or are having taken from us, anything about our societies that could be described in such a way. Many of us here would give our right arm to know peace, tranquility, and to live the traditional society and land of our forefathers. My point? Treasure what you have, every waking minute of your life. You are mightily blessed.

Hi Eli! If I had to give a name to this video it would be: "The mountain that awakens the soul and unites people". It may seem like a difficult place to experience, but it is only the impression of the unknown because once you know and understand it, that place becomes your home to which you become attached. The atmosphere that you live and breathe in your family is proof that there is unity and a sense of family in which everyone loves each other and helps each other. If one day I were to find myself in a family like yours, I would gladly have breakfast with Bliny, and not only that, I would gladly stay for lunch and dinner to taste the typical Russian dishes and I would stay to understand and enjoy the hospitality of the people who hosts me. I'm glad that your cousin who is like a sister for you and thanks to you, by exploring the mountains, he has rediscovered the vitality that could previously have been dormant. It must also be said that it is not just a magnificent natural place that makes a person feel good and, at this point I wonder what it could be like to spend just one day with you. Thank you for the content of this video and a greeting and a hug.

[@Boog-Burley]

Stumbled across your channel looking to see what the Ural Mountains look like. They have an almost a sacred look and feel, like a tranquil old world energy, so much history, so many lives that came and passed in the shadows of those beautiful mountains.
