First Time in Vladivostok, RUSSIA 🇷🇺 Trans Siberian Railway Part 1

Russia 🇷🇺 a country that's been all over the news lately. But what is life really like inside this vast nation? Growing up in Hong Kong, my knowledge of Russia was pretty limited. I could probably count the things I knew on one hand: Putin, vodka, bears, matryoshka dolls, and that it’s the largest country in the world. And then, unexpectedly, I fell in love with a Russian girl that expanded my knowledge about this country.

So, join us on a two-month adventure as we travel across the incredibly diverse landscapes of Russia aboard the Trans-Siberian Railway, starting here in Vladivostok.

I visited St. Petersburg and Moscow for the first time in my life last year and it was an incredible experience. I got to watch Kamila Valieva and Anna Scherbakova perform live at the CSKA arena on two different occasions. It was a dream come true, as they are figure skaters who I greatly admire. I am so glad we have people like you who can show us the real Russia, not the fake one we often see in social media.

Not only loving your content but also the vibe between the two of you! Your energy reminds me of my younger adventurous self too. Looking forward to more videos of the two of you travelling, journeying and growing together

[cool_beans]

[gpain]

Come to Yakutsk in January, I'll show you a real Russian winter. 😎👌

[sriyanto]

The price for daily housing is so expensive because you got there during the tourist season + the city was preparing for the EEF, which took place on September 3-6, but the city prepares long before that.

Happy anniversary. I am from Hong Kong, and my wife is German. We lived in the US. You guys remind me of our younger days. We loved those King Crabs. We have them here, but they are much more expensive, like twice or three times your prices. They are sold in Hong Kong restaurants, too. I introduced seafood to my wife when she visited HK for three months during our college summer vacation in 1980.

The buffet line looks like those in America 40 years ago, except it serves American food. The uniform was similar. None of those exist today. It is nice to tag along. Thanks.

Капец очень крутой обзор на Владик! Вы вроде по всем точкам прошлись и все попробовали интересное 😃 город стал лучше конечно. Центр расцвел, появились красивые вывески и видно что tourist friendly.

My favorite travel channel. Easily. Great travel content + a legitimately fun & likeable couple

[firstandlastname]

I cannot wait to see Bailkal area, Novosibirsk, Kazan, Moscow and St Petersburg. You guys are amazing ❤

[ekaterinakovtun]

Thank you for the beautiful video of my city. By the way, in Vlad it's getting dark at 6 pm, not at 3 pm in winter, like in Moscow. Vladividtok is located on the same latitude as Sochi.
