VLADIVOSTOK, RUSSIA or why I want to escape the Far East (VLOG)

Vladivostok is a city in the Far East of Russia, on the shore of Sea of Japan. This city is famous for its unique vibe, hills, the sea and traffic jams. In the video I will show you a little bit of the downtown, some outskirts, graffiti, the local lore Arsenyev State Museum and the Pacific ocean.

*About myself* My name is Natasha, I live in the Far East of Russia in the city of Khabarovsk, but originally I'm from a small town Spassk-Dalny. Currently I'm studying Linguistics in a university in Khabarovsk. I like languages and learning about different cultures. On this channel I'm making videos about life in Russia, our traditions and my traveling in Russian cities. Subscribe to my channel, and let's explore Russia together!

Among my videos this one about Vladivostok is the most watched. Is it because this city is so popular with foreigners? Interesting observation, so here I can say that Vladivostok wins over Khabarovsk. (5 times more views!). But the video about Khabarovsk is interesting too, just saying.. :)

Don't feel bad about your clothes, you have much more going for you than what you wear. At 21, you've studied abroad a year, visited Hawaii and California. Seen and done more than millions of students here in the US; You're very intelligent, beautiful and have a wonderful presence on camera. Keep doing what you love and you will find the perfect place to grow.

The best part of the internet is seeing people from around the world realizing most people are cool.

I hope YouTube rewards you enough for you to keep going with your videos. THIS is real information. THIS is real, honest, authentic, genuine reporting of facts and life outside your own country.

As an American living in the San Francisco Bay Area, I’ve always been fascinated by Vladivostok and the Russian Far East. Thank you for your tour and your interesting perspective.

As an American, I constantly find these types of vlogs very insightful. Humanity around the world is pretty much the same. It's just the powers above never seem to have humanities best intentions.

The clothes you wear are not as important as the heart you have. You are an intelligent and gifted young lady.

You probably get this comment a lot, but I'll say anyway that I really like you having decided to include the bit from 15:50 to 16:26 in the video, even though you weren't feeling very good about yourself. I'm brazilian and I've felt exactly what you described so many times... I'm 25 right now and constantly feeling like I should be somewhere else, that I have no money to achieve dreams, etc etc. It's at least nice to think that it's just common to feel like that, specially when you are in your twenties and your surname is not Kardashian. Things will get better. Take care!

Holy balls. That was heartbreaking listening to you talk about your clothes. Because you are so awesome and genuine in so many ways. I wanted to give you a big bear hug here from

No need to be insecure about your appearance. I was actually admiring the jacket you were wearing! Your confidence is truly remarkable as well as your intellect. I see a very articulate, creative, inspiring creator!

[esragungor]

I've always imagined Russia based on Moscow and nearby cities. Its amazing to see other areas, the fusion of soviet structures within todays Russia, lifestyle etc. your channel is amazing, I literally got a whole new perspective about Russia and Russian people. Good work.

[unclear]

I'm always amazed by how large Russia really is, and it's very cool to hear the opinions of someone living in the far east. Love from Sweden!

[curtishoward]

I’ve learned more about Russia in the last week from you than school ever taught me.

[NikiProshin]

I'm Russian, just arrived to Vladivostok after living abroad for years and about to travel the country right from Vladivostok to Saint Petersburg. First time in the Far East, and so far it's great here! Really impressed by the city and people living here. I'm also making travel vlogs about my trips, and perhaps will pass by your city as well.

[darellnewsome]

So proud of you and what you are doing in continuing to bring these videos to us! Thank you!

I have always wondered how it looks in the Russian far east. I am thankful for you making these videos and showing us. You are doing a great job!

I’m American and I’ve been to Vladivostok twice. The first time I thought that it would be dull and boring, but to my great surprise, I actually had a wonderful time. It was great! I always tell people that of all of the places that I’ve been to, Vladivostok, surprisingly, is one of the places where I had the most fun. Though there were some sour people, most of the people were actually really nice. Good memories...
