Three Days in the Country. Aunt Galya

[@lejaccast1]

My wife and I love your videos. She is from Russia and I’m from El Salvador

[@MarilynZafar]

Good

[@chasf4371]

Love watching your videos there in Russia. I am in Texas as was raised on a ranch and worked cattle when I was younger and was amazed at how the Russian countryside and villages look very similar to our rural country here. I grew up during the cold war but I actually believe we have more in common than we realize. People are people.

[@RussianPlus]

That's very true Charles. We are very similar

[@originaltheme5826]

I love Texas, specially Texas for some god unknown reason.. never been there.. but feel attached... and no not for dollars.. emotional connect..god bless Texas and America and Russia and their people.

[@yatchoychu3146]

People Worldwide are the Same. We all love a peaceful happy life, family and friends, food and celebrations, festivals and more food, peaceful social life and a peaceful home and country. Its The Self Interest Politicians who Keep Us Apart. Without such People there Will be Peace and Harmony Worldwide.

And the flowers at 6:18 look like purple bluebonnets... with mesquite leaves! 😆🙌

[@ssmartkid]

@Charles Flowers: THANK YOU, dear Charles, from Achim in Munich / Bavaria / Germany. - I´m so happy about the simple - but so TRUE ! - things you wrote here. Yes, I grew up, too, during the cold war; and my dear mother had to flee with her family from the "Red Army" in 1945 from her hometown Königsberg, the nowadays Kaliningrad, to western Germany just to save their lives. - But OF COURSE I don´t feel the slightest hatred or even bad emotions against "the Russians" ! - How could I. - You´re SO right: People are people !! As well as certainly you did I learned so much from videos like this one here; please let´s go on trying to understand people from anywhere, maybe from VERY different parts of the world. ALL THE BEST to your amazing country, the United States, and even more to the great State of Texas ! Cheers from Achim & God bless you and your family.

[@myusa96]

Kentucky is watching you. Hello everyone and you are great guys ...✌🇺🇲🇷🇺

[@fujifatbike5793]

Love this part of Russia. Rustic, beautiful and peaceful. Good people too. I also love that you are close to your sister and family. Much respect and thank you for sharing. Greetings from Amizmiz, on the foothills of the Atlas Mountains.

[@salmansami5388]

i like very much

[@4franz4]

Almost 50 minutes of RussianPlus. Is there anything better on this planet? Best regards to Russia from Switzerland 🇨🇭🇷🇺 I was just missing some more drone footages 😔😆

[@loubowen8082]

Thank you for letting us see how real Russians live and enjoy their families in your beatifuel country

[@rickfelix6255]

What a peaceful video my brother. Beautiful village. I’m in love with Russia alright. Again, greetings from Arizona USA.

[@MrBadGuyLEC]

I could listen yo Aunt Galya's stories for hours...

[@RussianPlus]

She told us a few more stories but I had to cut it short because otherwise video would be longer than 1 hour:)

[@genecanfield3681]

Being a Boomer, my perception of Russia, and the Russian people was completely formed by American culture and thought. of course, as the years have passed, I've gotten to know some Russian folks, and generally found them to be delightful. In each case, it took a bit longer to get to know them due to their reserved nature, but once they warmed up, they revealed themselves to be wonderful people. These videos go even further in that vein. Keep up the great work. Someday, perhaps, I'll check out Russia for myself.

[@donuggallagedon4948]

I have watched almost all your videos and I loved them all, Russia has become my favorite country after watching your videos

[@davidjackson4181]

This was a really beautiful video, both scenery and intimate family moments, thank you. I really like how Lena fits in with your family so well, and of course any video on your beloved aunt Galya is so special and heart warming. You transport many of us who are so far away and live such a different life like my life here in Australia, in to a different unimaginable world. One where people are more connected to and appreciative of the simple things. We have become so spoilt with excess' that we fail to register what is truly important, being propinquity which is what your videos are all about Slava. I found it particularly interesting to see the holodets prepared. To me it is soo undesirable but my beloved here from the Ukraine says it is his favourite and so I have found a local Ukrainian woman to make it for him. Finally I would love to send something to your aunt from here in Australia. Mein Sashulya can translate in to Russian so she can read, but where would you like me to post it to please Slava? Again thank you and greetings from Australia. Your friend David

[@briansquibb999]

I cannot thank you enough for producing these videos. It warms my heart to think we are not that different. You and your family (and Lena) are such good-hearted people . Thank you again.

[@RussianPlus]

Wow, thank you

[@freddiethompson58]

Your video has brought me back some good memories from my childhood. Thanks for presenting the people as they are, and countryside as it is without any pretension. I'm looking forward for the next video.

[@dryuristuart]

Hello, my name is Yuri, I'm from Brazil and I'm getting to know a little more about Russia, its people and its culture through your videos. Thank you!

[@avde]

Thank you so much for sharing the everyday life of russian people living in the villages. The man at the church was right. There will be a time that people will return to the villages again. Again thank you for sharing!

[@alexandrablendea7841]

Great content, Slava! You have a beautiful family. God bless! ❤ Hugs from Romania 🤗

[@RussianPlus]

Thank you! 🤗

[@susanandrew5240]

Your barbecue looks good ! I like your Aunts stories about the old days, you are so lucky to have her !

[@vallentinald1782]

All the three ladies in this video are fabulous. They have so much positivity and happiness

[@queenstreetsystems]

what a lovely video. I felt like I was there. Please thank your Aunty for letting us in !!

[@aquariumminiatures3139]

Oh, I did't know that russian village is just exactly like polish village! Watching your video I felt like visiting my grandma in Poland☺

[@serg68ful]

Poland was part of Russia before 1918. So...

[@merlyandusay1560]

Hi watching from philippines. Beautiful vlog!

[@balotzckdee2052]

What a great way to take a break! I have seen Aunt Galya in one of your vlogs before and I remembered she sang a beautiful song then. Now I am amazed how she moves around, even enjoys chopping woods, cooking comfort foods, all by herself! I would have loved being with her :) She is such a lovable woman. I love how she recollects her childhood memories, too. Your 3-day sojourn was so wonderful, despite the rain. Everytime you gather around the dining table was my favorite part, so simple, and yet so cozy and the dishes look palatable. Thank you for sharing another interesting content. Keep inspiring us!

[@25Soupy]

Being in the countryside warms my heart. Greetings from Vancouver British Columbia Canada.

[@keithjones6659]

Thank you so much for inviting us into your lives. Such a beautiful way of life.

[@juanchik5579]

I really love Russian houses 👏. Здравствуйте из Никарагуа 🇳🇮

[@vladislavdorofeev2703]

Thanks for your positive videos and for extra practice of the English Language. My wife and I watch them on the regular basis and I also share your videos with my friends from the USA and they really enjoy watching them and learn every time something new about Russia.

[@Bentcypress]

Thanks for another amazing video Slava. It makes me homesick for the old days. Love your Aunt Galya, what a wonderful woman. Thank her for opening her house for all your visitors from around the world. If I was younger and able to travel I would sure love to meet her. Oh well, maybe in another life.

[@callido592]

your videos are awesome. They give an unbiased insight into life in Russia, rural locations, cities, old and young folk etc. Aditionally youre a sympathetic guy with a sympathetic family which makes it all the more better. Keep up the good work!

[@waynemcmillan5970]

Greetings from Australia. I love the Russian countryside. Thank you for the videos. The people are so innovative, hardworking and funny.

[@jestavares234]

I´d like to visit Aunt Galya! What a gentle woman!

[@renatosouza2741]

Watching this videos hoping that one day I can visit Russian countryside!

[@19andersongroup60]

The vastness of the country is humbling and open. I see Russia’s future as less of cities, to more rural areas. If so it will be interesting. Family is important as it should be. Pets are a reflection of who you are. I think you are a good person and it shows. Thanks for sharing your time with us. As always, you are doing excellent work. See ya later.

[@19andersongroup60]

@Liz A I understand the justification to follow the work opportunities. Russia is blessed with the room to grow. My opinion. Food products and product distribution could improve. Small business entrepreneurs can focus on products and services they do the best. Small business owner doesn’t have to devolve, manufacture and market everything. Build up the rural farms. It’s worth a try. It would require some government financial subsistence. Competition with China would be a challenge. Russians can be pretty stubborn but they will find a way. I enjoy my life. I would find it difficult to live in an apartment on the 10 story building surround with millions of people, pollution and crime. If I had the choice.

[@savaranola611]

@Liz A With a good internet infrastructure towns could also develop as there would be people who enjoy the countryside life and if they can work from home then they do not need the city, I am not referring to the current situation but it could be a big push for companies to move more jobs to remote option. I currently work from home and would prefer to live in a small town. Also, Russia does not have the population to grow its cities unless it opens its border to third world countries.

[@Mira-q8s]

Ребята, вы делаете потрясающее дело! Вы не только с любовью показываете нашу любимую Россию иностранцам, но дарите такие чудесные места и нам, россиянам. Так чудесно! Тетя Галя - Солнышко! Здоровья всем!

[@jp12320]

Beautiful as always, brother.

[@garyfrederick7607]

that was awesome,..my grandmother made jellied meat just like that.Those were meals i grew up on,..wow we are so similar,..from one country life to another. and from different countries. WOW!! thank you for sharing.

[@MarcTRussell]

Your aunt is so sweet and everyone there was very warm (except the Assistant Priest lol). It was very nicely balanced with activities, family stories, quality time, and seeing the countryside. I’m going to make those Belarussian potatoes.

[@lawrence4318]

Thanks so much for such a sincere look into Russian country living.It’s a great eye opener for us in the U.S..., and something the mainstream American media doesn’t want to show us, for some strange reason. I love all of your down to earth authenticity.

[@Kosackk]

As a Russian that have lived in Sweden since 94' this brings back memories when visiting our friends dacha in the outskirts of St. Petersburg during the summers as a kid!

[@GwynBleys]

Yep same left St. Petersburg in 94 firing AKs out at 16...........

[@haakonchristensen2880]

I truly enjoy all your videos. It's so interesting comparing life in Russia and Norway. We have actually many similar things in our culture, surprisingly for me . Keep up the good work! 👍

[@billstiefel7384]

Your personal, family perspective is refreshing to watch...it allows us to get a glimpse of both Aunt Galya and your family interactions. Exploring and excursions....simply seeing joy and beauty in everyday life....this is good. I used your video to acquaint my new son in law with Russian village life....as this is same as village life in Eastern Ukraine where his wife, my daughter, was born and lived. Thanks for sharing!

[@colemctarmach2397]

Great video. This village reminds me of visiting my relatives in South Moravia in Czech Republic. The houses, landscape, and food are similar.

[@vollengineer]

We love Czechia! Get them to let Americans in, if you can! It's already been a year and I'm dying to go back :)

[@alexandrablendea7841]

Thank you for always showing churches. I follow julian calendar as well, so to me these places are Gold, inside and outside ❤

[@bmonique5187]

Regards to you Mr and to your family. Bless you all ❤

[@chriswhite1584]

This is such a nice video..!! Your video's help me so much to get my mind off of all of the bullcrap here in America and the world..!! I'm so glad that I am a subscriber of your channel..!! Thank You So Much..!! Cheers from Fort Lauderdale Beach, Florida. 🍻 ❤ What a wonderful place and family..!! ❤ Wish I was there..!! 😋

[@lawrencemitchell5983]

Enjoyed every minute, your Aunt is an amazing Lady...and a living reminder for us to appreciate the things so readily available in modern times. Some of the forest looked like it had previously burned. As, the Gentlemen near the Blessed Spring stated, the Minister of the Church did seem like quite a character. 🤗

[@Saadkhan-rh2lg]

Very beautiful video, great bro ❤️, your village is very beautiful,I like it

[@glenvillamayor5017]

Thanks for letting us come with you visiting Aunt Galya's place and the vast and beautiful Russian village! One of my dreams is living in the countryside one day. Just take care and keep on making more videos in a Russian village.

[@widjoh]

This was such a beautiful viedo !!! You have a fantastic skill, to come so close to the people you are with. I enjoyed every second of this video from the countryside, also with your wonderful aunt Galya ! It felt like I was there with you all, and to be honest, a few times I was so touched, that a tear was falling down my cheek... becaust things were so real and so beautiful.. I've been in Russia several times and last time I also visitied a village with dachas... Thank you s much for making and sharing all your great videos... this one was in my opinon a masterpiece :-)

[@RussianPlus]

Thank you so much. I wasn't really doing anything extra I was just filming the way things are. Well except Vika is a lot more shy when the camera is on

[@jimmyhudzgarage]

I love this so much. Thank you for showing us your family and culture

[@janotlellis7230]

Great Job! Nice places and people too. I'm from Brazil and I also live in a small city. I found quite interesting to meet different cultures and places like these you showed. Amazing!

[@franciscojaviermota2206]

GREAT VIDEO, THANK YOU FOR SHARE, IS AMAZING ALL THE OPEN SPACE, COUNTRY LAND RUSSIA HAVE.

It is so refreshing and rejuvanating to visit the Russian countryside! I loved this video! Thanks! From: Eric.

[@kristoffcanos5250]

Love watching your videos. I am from Philippines. Wish I could travel to Russia someday. 😊

I love Aunt Galya's house. Such beautiful colors.

[@amyhess7029]

Thanks for sharing Russian village experience , joy-felt from Virginia

[@christophercullen1236]

I have been to ekaterinburg 6 times over last 20 years you bring back so many memories ! The Dacha and Bunya and country villages, the country food my Grandfather would say it sticks your ribs! Christopher from Queensland Australia

[@bradbailey8729]

What a lovely family you have. Thanks so much for sharing your trips, adventures and conversations with the people you meet. I've been to Russia and want very badly to go back for another visit.

[@fernandoguillen900]

Good to get back at the village life, where every body remember your childhood, feeling free, and that fresh air relaxed our mind, good life for vika and mother around that paradise...

[@stefangale5142]

your attitude and positivity is what attracts me to your videos. i love exploring the wilderness and escaping from the busy life of the city is a must, to keep ourselves sane especially during the pandemic. keep up the awesome vlogs! lana i noticed has become more comfortable with filming and speaking english its awesome!

[@Goldmanspears]

The love and respect given to elders touches the heart.

[@klistoffequipmentmachinery9296]

Slava, great video, greetings from Oregon.

[@starkillerchaos]

I love watching videos when you're with your aunt in the countryside!! Those dill potatoes looked awesome!!

[@4franz4]

Please add Russian subtitles so that aunt Galya also understands😆

[@andershaugen5463]

I understand her frustration, just in my case it's trying to understand her language ☺

[@mimmo7518]

Please take more drone views, they're awesome! Thank you for sharing these magnificent places with us

[@cotycooper8225]

I watch all of your videos. Thanks man for making these, I am fascinated with Russia because my great grandparents were from St. Petersburg. I was supposed to go for the summer but the pandemic hit and changed my plans. Thankfully I can watch your videos for now. Maybe next summer when I come we can say hello. Your sister is very pretty by the way 🙂. Stay safe guys

[@kennethblackwell1137]

Thank you...enjoyed the visit....great family and countryside...!!!!!

[@jmccracken491]

I live here in America in the State Of West Virginia and find these videos very neat and oh so informative. Keep up the great work. And Aunt Gayla is so informative also.

[@a-meettripathi5843]

[@allon33]

Greeting from Australia, love your videos.

[@JC-qt7lw]

It was a beautiful journey to the Village with you. Lot to learn from a slower pace of life, a healthier way of living, a happier mind and a more active body. Country side Fresh Air and Sunshine are hard to beat. Old roads, old houses, old folks and old ways have a lot to offer in this fast pace world we all live in. Appreciate your good efforts in making this happen.

[@jimmyhudzgarage]

So wonderful. Thank you for sharing you family. An true blessing. Спасибо

[@scottcarden5785]

Hey Slava! Hope all is well with you. I really enjoy the countryside videos the most! You hanging out with Lena, Vika, Aunt Galya and all the animals and plants .Excellent video!!

[@scottcarden5785]

Was that American beer Vika was pouring? It looked like Budweiser? lol

[@johnconnor2001]

I love to watch your perspective of Russian life whether it is in the city or country. Especially the everyday chit chats with your family. Completely different from where I am from here in Australia.

[@mohammedkhalil8237]

I like your demeanor. you are caring and thoughtful

[@thomasliangus]

Thank you for the video. Russian talking and food making are very relaxing.

[@ronalddevine9587]

Very fascinating to see. Especially the meals. Reminds me of when my wife and I would go to Greece 🇬🇷 to see her mom. Your aunt looks like a sweetheart 💕. Treasure her. Seeing inside the church was also interesting. Again reminds me of Greece, especially the priest. More of these, please.

[@MiladGorgin]

Yay, a longer video! Thank you, Slava :)

[@alexflores7652]

I love that kind of open country. I love to hear the wind blowing over the noise of the city. Here in the states I love to hear the sound of the crickets and birds when I am out in the country and in the woods. i like to find a quiet spot off the trails to be alone with my thoughts and to listen the wind through the trees and the animals off in the distance.

[@darrellfrancis3863]

love these videos. Watching from British Columbia. Keep them coming :)

[@tanyahouston5635]

Nice visit to the county's idea and Aunt Galya is very interesting. I enjoyed this visit!

I fell in love with мурзик! I want to take him home! Great video as always. Thank you!

[@sharadamohanty5629]

Thank you too Luca

thanks for another excellent vlog, I felt i was in my grandmothers house. I wise there was Smell-O-Vision , all I could think of was the potatoes butter and dill !.

[@sami2382]

Very nice and simple life! Love your videos and thanks for sharing them with us. Surprisingly, we do the same thing in the Middle East! We bring something with us to the family that we are visiting just to show our love and respect! Love and Love to all of you, from Iraq.

[@richasharma9777]

Aw, Grandma loved the blanket!! How cute is she!!!!

Loved this video, made me feel like I was in russia making schaslig. My trip this summer was cancelled. Tell your sister and wife we love them in the videos.

[@freeradical1567]

Thank you for the wonderful evening. Visiting with your family is very healthy and enjoyable. Thank you.

[@travellersdelight9227]

I just wish to meet aunt Galya some day and listen to those old and intriguing stories.

[@wiv2631]

Thoroughly enjoyed the video. You and the ladies are wonderful hosts. The whole show is such a relaxing getaway from a sometimes turbulent world.

[@mickey1849]

Thank you very much RP. This was a very wonderful video. I was amazed to see how much the fall is coming on even in the middle of August! The summer is truly a sweet and fleeting time in Russia. Hope you make one or two more vids of your Auntie's place before you leave. Thanks again!

[@stevenpaul9827]

I love the Russian countryside, thanks as always for giving us a window into the pleasant nature of the villages

[@chriswatchingponies9877]

Loved the song. Lena is fun, she's in for everything. Ofcourse i looked up which song it is. Because i'm weird like that, and always super interested in Russian music. It is ''Horse'' by the band Lyube. (Конь - Любэ). It's on the KZbins ofcourse. The internet is awesome. Spasibo ! Fun video.

[@олеголег-д8т]

[@woofernando7076]

Love your videos, mate. Great for exposure to the language and learn more about the country in quite a pure and genuine way. Keep it up. Greetings from a Venezuelan in Colombia.

[@TheKingrat50]

Love watching your videos, people always showcase the big modern city's but i enjoy watching normal every day life. I have visited Moscow and St Petersburg but also would have enjoyed seeing what you are showing us in your videos. I am from South Africa.

[@bertanelson8062]

Nothing like country cooking and living no matter where in the world you are. And yes, everything that happens in "the world" is survivable when you have the basics from nature. Your drone footage is beautifully incorporated into your vids--loved the chruch from above. Thanks for an enjoyable visit!
