Congratulations. As an Austrian Alpine enthusiast, I know about the effort that is not visible on this video. Great job.

@AlexLunyov 5 месяцев назад

That's awesome. Thank you Eli for sharing your experience. It was so sad to see more and more climbers give up and go back. So much relieving to see you've reached the summit. We're going to Mt. Elbrus this August. Well... Pretty soon.

Tallest mountain in Iran is called Mt Alburz and tallest mountain in Russia is Elbrus. There is a linguistic link between the two. Love your videos.

I was wondering the same, it looks like hard work. Another outstanding video from Eli. video creation has actually come so naturally to her. She has actually gotten success really quick, I can not help be a little envious of her, though the top quality of her videos are much better than mine and also better than a lot of youtuber's. I have actually been blogging concerning Russia for over 4 years but the youtube algorithm has not been as kind to me as it has been to her. I can see that you like to learn about life in Russia. Can I ask of you, to critique my channel and tell me what is wrong and how I can create better videos?

Congratulations Eli on making it to the top🏆 . Russia has beautiful scenery. I used to hate going on school camping trips. Camping in Australia is very different from Russia.

@@SamsRussianAdventures Unfortunately, stereotypes about Russia exist. Use that stereotype to your advantage. Eli knows that 95% of her target demographic audience are male aged 18+ and single. Most of them have an unhealthy fetish and objectify Russian women. But all Eli see's in those individuals is an algorithm which translates to revenue. I read the comments and 85% of the time its awkward lonely men with a harmless crush. But to be honest, I think of Eli as having transformed herself as more of an Investigative Journalist rather than RU-vidr.

@SamsRussianAdventures 2 года назад

@@diabolicaldebbie I really appreciate your honesty. I think that you are right. I often make videos with girls just because I know that the male western audience wants to see this. The other option is to make videos stereotyping the typical run down Russia that people expect to see and one blogger in particular has gained huge success with this.

I don't know whether they went up the North or the South routes so I will ask them when I next see them (we often going camping together).

Russia is without a doubt the world's leading Superpower (Sorry U.S, but its true).
