First Impressions of MONGOLIA : From Soviet Era to Nomadic Life

Mongolia used to be a big white spot for me on the map, it always inrigued me, and finally I am here! I started my trip on the border with Mongolia in Russia - Ulan Ude, the capital of Buryatia republic. Then headed to Ulaanbaatar and further to the steppes to stay with a nomadic family and learn about country's Soviet heritage and nomadic traditions.
I've always dreamt about traveling in Mongolia, and it wouldn't be possible without

[@petrklic7064]

Dear Eli. It is perfectly OK, to do what you feel, no matter what other people think you should do. For me are videos about Paris or San Francisco boring. And i am happy, that there is someone like you, who is showing us "russian world" from Black see to Kamchatka. Including ex-soviet countries and countries which were part of that "russian world" , like Mongolia. Because of your videos, i am not "average idiot" fed by dumb western TV propaganda about Russia (drunk illiterate gopniks, poverty, dry toilets,...), because you are showing that regions as they really are. 👍💚

Superb Eli! The aerial shots were nicely integrated. I traveled there for two weeks by train from Beijing on the way to Moscow in 1992 just after the USSR had collapsed and their economy was in shambles. We had to sneak our relatively fresh food in from China and eat in basements while in the capital but everyone was so resilient and hopeful. I could tell so many great stories form that land. Our driver was drunk all the time and lost but there was nothing to crash into on the steppe so we drove from Ger to Ger (Yurt) asking for directions and became guests automatically. They plied us with fermented horse milk before sending us off again so we were always drunk too!

​@@ElifromRussiaGO, VISIT... Mariupol Kiev Kharkiv Chasiv Yar Bakhmut Andriivka Kherson Klishchiivka Mykolaiv Chernihiv Irpin Bucha... Over 8 million displaced persons and refugees, not to mention thousands of civilian casualties, cities and civilian infrastructure razed to the ground. More than two years have passed since the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Russian propaganda is gratuitous in its malice, but life has a price and is based on the defense of peace, truth and justice. Any comments, Elina Bakunova? P R O P A G A N D A W O R K S !

Interesting and fascinating. You're not the first vlogger I've seen here on KZbin who travelled to Mongolia, but everyone adds a new aspect, provides a new and different view to this country. Thank you! 🙂❤️

[@ElifromRussia]

True!

[@adeyoliver1680]

Stunningly beautiful scenery, videography and of course Eli herself 😊, what an incredible trip, thank you so much for sharing. ❤

[@ElifromRussia]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Karamoonsage]

It is difficult *not* to immerse yourself in the landscape and the people cinematically captured in this video. I found the soundtrack of the throat singing to be catchy and quite fitting for this content. Beautifully done, Eli! I enjoy watching all of your work, and I always come away learning something new.

[@ElifromRussia]

Wow, thank you!

[@jwayne4556]

The president of Mongolia visited our city years ago and commmented that our city and surrounding flatland areas were similar to his country. Your Mongolian video is so much better than others I have seen.

[@vaughansamuelson6552]

Once again, stunning views and interesting lifestyles. Thank you for taking us there. Keep it up.

[@ElifromRussia]

Thank you! Will do!

[@SLDM1962]

Very interesting ! Too short, please do more on Mongolia, it is fascinating !

[@sovereignjoe5730]

Спасиииииииииибо!!

[@rdds7038]

Dear Eli, I have been in Paris, New York, San Francisco, Rome ecc... Unfortunately never in Mongolia and in that remote beautiful places of Russia. And I'm so jealous of you 😂❤ the places you show us are more exotic, authentic, interesting and beautiful than the "normal" tourist places.

[@causa507]

Excellent video. Thank you for allowing us to explore Mongolia. 😊

[@YvetteBunton]

Hi Eli. thank You SO much for this fabulous experience!!! It was a great Joy to watch this video from Mongolia. The people and scenery were gorgeous and we especially loved the Mongolian hilltop Soviet museum! Please show more such beautiful museums that show the wonderful history of the Soviet Union. With Love from Canada :)

[@LordOz3]

One of the things I like is that you go places that are not popular and show us places no one else does.

[@bryanessing3344]

LOVE these videos. Russia is awesome. Your videos make me very happy while watching

[@Etienne_O]

I can see that the video production is improving with each video and the music is particularly well chosen. Don't give up and keep working hard ; this channel deserves a lot more views

[@redghettosun9785]

Excellent video. I follow your channel from time to time and this is by far the most interesting travel destination you've visited. Mongolia seems like a beautiful country with such an interesting history and you decided to go there in the winter time! Mongolia and Russia has long historical ties and it's not too farfetched to say The Mongols, for good or bad, had a hand in uniting Russia in a geographic sense.

[@DrBLReid]

Looks like winter there is a bit colder than being in Tennessee! Looks like living in Alaska! God Bless you Miss Eli!

[@SaltyDog69]

Eli, thank you for not going down everyone else’s path and seeing there is more to this world than big city life. I too, was surprised by how nice and modern the school was in that area. I think the more you travel, you realize what a small world we live in.

[@CristianLopez-qd3qb]

Thanks for sharing so many beautiful places

[@pling120]

Hi Eli, it was a great vlog from Mongolia, hope for more vlogs like this? God Bless You😀👍

[@MrJulek53]

Eli, don't worry what other think about of this what do. You just do what your heart desires and I can assure you that many appreciate what you bring close for them, I do love your episodes.

[@ElifromRussia]

🫶🏻

[@marinavlady6922]

Eli, I totally agree with you. Travelling off the beaten path is much more interesting. ❤

[@LG-bs1rs]

Wow, the guides do a great job opening up their country's knowledge and land! And as always Eli you open up more and more possibilities and interesting places!

[@mipbax9806]

Fantastisch-Heerlijk-Dank U, Eli from (beautiful) Russia ! ! ! Groetjes uit België.

[@stevenhandorf3145]

Very serene and beautiful. The climate may be harsh, but the hospitality is warm and authentic.

[@patrickmazza7055]

The coolest people don’t worry about being cool. They are just who they are. The people who have to go to glam places to prove they’re cool are just posers. Loved this presentation.

[@jettiful]

Thanks to Netflix's Vivant, despite it being a Jdrama, it helped me get more close to Mongolia. A splendid drama that showcased Mongolia and some of its traditions. I was hoping Eli will talk about The Hu because they are currently the face of Mongolia's rock scene which is currently popular outside of their country

[@yoshiko1036]

Soooo cool that you've been there! Come to Kyrgyzstan please too!🇰🇬😻

[@ericastier1646]

You are really improving your job skills Eli, thanks to your good sociability and effervecent personality and not the least a bulletproof optimism and tough physical constitution. You are well suited for your reporter job.

[@ElifromRussia]

Thank you so much!!!

[@ericastier1646]
