Walk and talk, visit to a small neighborhood store (Avokado)

Shout-out to James and his family, who we met at Slavyanaky Bulvar tonight. They're fans of the channel. Great to meet you!

God I love these tall fences they keep you private on your own land 😌

[@RussiaAmericanDream]

It's nice. Tall fences make good neighbors)

[@ag250380]

Согласна. И не приходится краснеть за свой бардак и сорняки. Очень удобно. А если кто хочет навести красоту в саду и показать её всем, можно заказать кованый забор.

[@ВладимирЛитус-п8ф]

@@ag250380 а если построить 5 метровый забор - как на Рублевке - то можно не опасаться , что кто-то перелезет через него... а плюс камеры и охрана с собаками...

[@shogunero3.6]

Was thinking the same.

*I lived in the USA, Texas, New York (The garbage is still that) Now I live in Ottawa in Canada, after such adventures you begin to appreciate what happened in Russia, you understand that there are a lot of advantages, calmly, little crime, there are not so many drug addicts and homeless people...*

[@RussiaAmericanDream]

I laughed at 'the garbage is still there'

[@ВладимирЛитус-п8ф]

От улиток можно избавиться с помощью сосновых шишек. Надо использовать старые, раскрывшиеся - надо распотрашить их и посыпать этим дорожку. Улиткам будет больно ползать по ним и они уйдут.

[@RussiaAmericanDream]

Oh nice, thank you. I don't want to hurt them, but I do want them to go away, or stay in the grass and stop crawling along the path.

​@@RussiaAmericanDreamсейчас ещё появились так называемые "испанские слизни" они большие и коричневые. Опасайтесь их. Лучше не трогать руками. Они активно захватывают территории.

I want to buy a bike anyway, it's good exercise. Do you have any recommended brands of mountain bikes I can easily purchase here?

The small dried bagels (sushki) were not with sesame, it's poppy seeds (мак).

Thanks, I should know that by now, I'll add that to my second flash cards)

Looking at your will-be-garden, i see the best 'medicine' for depression. A man needs to create, build, transform reality to be happy. i'm no saying tgat you're idle. Just something 'solid', that can be seen and touched made by your own hands helps fighting deression much better. And you've got a lot of work around. And a couple of cold beers in the end of a day, not to forget the troubles, but to celebrate the deeds.😊

[@RussiaAmericanDream]

I'm really enjoying fixing this house and garden.

i like country side acres (Canadian family moved to Russia) and wild Siberia. i also liked Sasha meets Russia but youtube for whatever reason decided to remove her entire channel 😳

[@user-re3ys5jo4z]

Саша показывала Россию с хорошей стороны, а это нельзя.

[@RussiaAmericanDream]

She committed the cardinal sin of being happy in Russia, which I do every day, and thus subscribing to our Telegram is a very good idea, in case we get named in a Western news article and cancelled.

Hi! Interesting video!

[@RussiaAmericanDream]

Thanks!

[@EugeneBateman]

funny, but Gorki is not a very rich area, this is a middle class area but you bought a nice house in a good area, we had a house in this area, we sold it and moved to a neighboring town from you

[@RussiaAmericanDream]

I don't know how to judge, from some of the comments, I am the evil rich American who lives in a mansion)))

over 1000 rubles for a pack of pistachios seems a bit rough

[@RussiaAmericanDream]

@@TheTachaev yeah you pay a premium at these stores

[@raggedclawstarcraft6562]

How well do you speak russian already? And how much time do you think it'll take you to learn it to an acceptable level?

[@RussiaAmericanDream]

Enough to do basic things. And you're talking to a perfectionist, it will never be enough)))

Самая главная ваша проблема - незнание русского языка. Отсюда и ваша изоляция, отсутствие общения, интересных событий, проблемы с работой и депрессия. Учите язык! Общайтесь с соседями, смотрите фильмы на русском языке. На месте вашей супруги я бы общалась с вами дома исключительно на русском - хотите вы того или нет. Иначе, останетесь голодным 😂 И бросьте эти веганские заскоки. Что это за еда - батончики?! Вы взрослый мужик - ешьте мясо, готовьте дома нормальную домашнюю еду, а не покупайте полуфабрикаты, как студент в общаге. Это дешевле и полезнее. Извините, если обидела, но я вас не понимаю.

[@RussiaAmericanDream]

Elena almost exclusively speaks to me in Russian, although she has enjoying all the new English she has learned since she met me, so I have to remind her to speak in Russian sometimes))) And yes, she didn't like the bars either, they have sugar in them. I can't read the labels, but I need something healthy and portable to carry with me in public in case my blood sugar drops.

депрессия отчасти от безделья.

[@RussiaAmericanDream]

That's not it. I am not idle. I'm frustrated from trying different things all day and night for six months, and then having to deal with judgmental comments like this one. If you're reading idleness into me, that is your problem.
