Awesome. Such honest people in East Russia losing your phone is like loosing a piece of you. Very beautiful place.

Size, nature, religion, race, ethnicity, history, what Russia does not have. Russians should always be proud. Anyway, love from Bangladesh🇧🇩🇷🇺

A few years ago, a group of us from Malaysia and Singapore flew to Kamchatka. I had to fly to Hong Kong, then to Inchon and then to Vladivostok. We had a long layover in Vladivostok before flying to Petropavlovsk-kamchatsky. Long flight!

We had a 6-wheel drive, ex-military vehicle converted to a bus. We had a cook, brought along our food and logs for fire. We drove about 8 hours to camp on a black volcanic soil landscape. Even though it was early August, it was cold and at times wet and foggy. The landscape is unreal, almost like a primeval world. No wonder it is also known as the land of ice and fire.
Great seafood. In fact, I brought back a couple of kg of smoked salmon. Fantastic experience, especially for someone from Singapore!

Your vlogs are on the level of award winning documentaries. Thank you for showing us places we will never see. Beautiful works- you are incredibly talented.

This is my dream for my whole life to see Kamchatka. It looks as lovely in your video as I always imagined!

The eastern coast of Russia reminds me of the Pacific Northwest in Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. Beautiful region.

I love to listen you speak English with special accent. you are a smart and beautiful lady.

I didn't know such places existed in Russia. I thought North eastern Russia was covered in snow and mostly barren but this place is very green and filled with life.

Holy moly ! Can't believe you got your phone back.

I really liked the sense of humour and the talk with your two guides.
It shows we ordinary people are just the same the world over.

[haseebkakakhel]

Eli ! What a great ambassador of Russia you are. Love & respect from Canada

[Redhand]

This was great. You gave us a personal look at a part of the world I will certainly never be able to visit. And positive stories like this are important in these difficult times. I really liked the fact that you were able to find your phone with the bus company's help. "What are the odds!?"

As a former retail manager, I can't help but notice that every store you go into always appears incredibly neat. I keep looking for a messy store in your videos and I haven't found one yet.

[yogsothoth]

This is a gorgeous region and it reminds me a lot of Alaska, USA. I love it.

[brianwoods]

Love your vlogs. Excellent video footage, good interviews and historical background...very calming in a world full of chaos.

[karlayork]

Thank you for your tours! I'm unable to travel (disabled, can't even go anywhere without assistance, ) so I am so grateful for those like you who share the world through your videos. I'm so glad you found your phone.

[TaigaAisaka]

Kamchatka is so beautiful, I hope I can visit it soon

[robincarvey]
