With rising tensions between the west and Russia it really bothers me that as one of the most hopeful times I've lived through was the destruction of the Berlin wall and promise of peace. I used to have a small piece of the Berlin wall but upon Bush Jr's invasion of Iraq after sept 11, felt it no longer had the feeling of hope it represented and I discarded it unceremoniously buy dropping it in a storm drain. I hope we can continue to live and explore this beautiful earth while it is out short time here. I love what you do Vaga Bond. These are the places and stories that are the most interesting.

Man traveling of Russia reminds me of traveling in the Middle East. It’s completely different to travel here in America. In the Middle East you pick up hitch hikers and yall go as far as the driver together. If you’re going really far and over night somewhere you usually do it with your driver and if theres no hotels you just knock on doors and ask someone to put you up for the night and in the morning you leave them a bit of money for the trouble. The trust levels between the people abroad is a lot higher than here in America imo. Its nice making friends on your travels too.

This is now one of my favourite KZbin channels ever. Your videos are such an inspiration, I wish to venture to those areas myself one day.

14:02 What an ideal monument. I can instantly relate to the sorrow of the head translated into tears falling from eyes. (I am American. That art speaks to the heart. It matters little which culture we develop in our life experiences.) May peace trace your footsteps.

Congratulations on your DIY doc. Entertaining and informative and most of all, REAL. A great way to see a place I know I will never visit.

Born in Magadan, left for the US in 93. Thank my parents every chance I get that they had enough courage to start a new life.

Thank you for doing this unusual journey. Too bad you only did one building of Debin. It is a building I lived in on 3rd floor. On the other side is Hospital. If you have more footage please do a video of Debin. Thank you. Thank you. Those were some good years of my life in 70's when I was a kid.

Excellent work! It's interesting to see Magadan and the Kolyma region today. I've read a lot about it and the history of the region, certainly in the 20th century, is *dark*. For anyone interested, Varlam Shalamov's 'Kolyma Tales' is a collection of accounts from prisoners in this region, where the Gulags were some of the most harsh in the whole of the USSR.

This is one of your best videos, Vaga. It has a real raw feeling to it that you don't get with other travel vloggers
