I have lived in Thailand for more than 17 years now. We only have two seasons here -- hot with sun and hot with rain. I really miss real seasons. I lived in the mountains in New Mexico, U.S.A., and loved the snow there every winter. Perm is exactly how I imagine Russia in the winter and makes me want to visit someday in December or January. Love your videos always.

I'm on a Snowboarding trip and I'm sleeping in a camper van (an ice storm hit the middleof the U.S.)... a few days ago I woke up and it was -29* Celsius 🥶. I put my food and water inside of a cooler to keep them from freezing 🧊... it's crazy 🤪! But I'm loving it 🏂 ❄🏔🌨

Three years in Charlotte, US, six years in Chicago USA and one year in Nashville, USA which all have seasons. Married a girl from SARATOV 12 years ago and we now live in the UK. Loved my visits to Russia, train travel and the people. The weather here is considered mild and Brits don't handle snow very well. Like you said you need the right clothes. Happy Travels.

Wonderful to see the children laughing, and playing outside, even in the cold. So precious! I grew up on a farm in northeast Wisconsin. We have cold winters in the Upper Midwest, but as you say, the secret is several layers of comfortable clothing. I have been studying the book series, “Russian for Dummies”. I will investigate Rosetta Stone, as you suggest. I enjoy autumn the best; lower humidity, and the mosquitoes go away. Please know your bright spirit can warm-up even the coldest day. Health and prosperity for you. ❤️🇷🇺

I once had the pleasure of landing during a 3 day blizzard in Moscow. My hotel was in Ismailova. I arrived 10 am in the morning and finally got to Partizansky metro station about 7 pm. Traffic was horrid. I remember struggling with my baggage through drifts of snow 3 feet deep to the hotel Gamma. Halfway there I noticed some street dogs watching me from a sheltered entrance to a store. I wondered if they were laughing at me, feeling sorry or wondering if they should finish me off in an act of mercy. I still love Russias winters, They're the real thing. I recommend anyone to go experience one.

Regarding learning languages, I would like to share my experience with Russian and Italian. I learned Russian the hard way, without the computer. After many years I still could not speak in Russian. But many years later I still remember everything that I learned in Russian. With Italian it was different, I learned it by teaching, by going with my class through the book and I was ahead two chapters, studying first myself, then teaching it to the small group. I was able to speak Italian after 6 months. I was almost fluent. However, after I left Italy and never used the language, I completely forgot what I learned. Now I know the benefit of hard work: it stays longer in our head if we put more effort during the learning process.

Great video! A wonderful look at a distant people. Here in Southern California the seasons don’t really change, and by that I mean the scenery stays about the same. It will get a little greener for a bit in the spring and in the winter the mountains get snow capped but other then that very little change. The temperature is the biggest change, alternating in winter from just below freezing (30F/-1C) to, (and depending where you are) brutally hot (115F/46C) in the summer. I actually live a short drive from Death Valley so I guess you could say we are almost the opposite in climates, you get really cold and we get really hot. I very much like the cold more, you can always put more cloths on to get warm, and like my Grandma used to say; “You don’t want to see me if I have to take enough stuff off!”. I love traveling and it would be an interesting experience to visit to experience the Legendary Russian Winter. Likewise if you ever visit SoCal in the summer, send me a message and I’ll gladly give you a few pointers on surviving the Heat! Stay Warm, Stay Safe, and Stay Wonderful!

Greetings Eli, my lovely distant cousin. Many years ago I worked at an ice cream factory, where the storage warehouse was kept at a constant -35¯C. One Friday afternoon a team from the local university arrived, with all their equipment, for 60 hours of training, camping in the deep frozen warehouse from Friday until Monday morning, in preparation for their upcoming Antarctic expedition. To put this in perspective, I grew up in a part of Australia where +18¯C is considered cold. When the participants emerged from the freezer on Monday morning, the looks on their faces said that maybe some of them were having second thoughts about Antarctica. But it's true, frozen air is always fresh because there is zero humidity, all the moisture has fallen to the ground.

I love this video, Eli! It makes one want to visit Perm, even with the cold weather! By the way (you may already know this), one of the greatest female Chess players of all time was born in Perm: Alexandra Kosteniuk 😊 She was the Women's World Chess Champion from 2008-2010; she also won the Women's Rapid World Chess Championship in 2021 in Warsaw (so she's still an active player). She has won many other titles and medals. (Her sister, Oxsana / Oksana, is also a strong Chess player, "Master" rated, I believe.) I think Alexandra moved to Moscow when she was little. Even so, it might be fun to do a research video about the Chess culture of Perm and reflect on the great player who was born there. (I know there is a "Perm University Chess Club" that has many accomplishments.) Best wishes always from California, USA, Eli! 🐴

Here in Thailand we have warm to hot weather most of the year. Our "winter" time is now, almost finishing. But if you come here in "winter" you will be shocked, because it is like your summer! Many Russians love coming to Thailand.

I lived in Northern Michigan for 12 years. Not quite as cold as Perm…. although snowmobiling requires really warm clothing when it’s -20° and going 45km/h. We were very accustomed to cold weather. And like you… I love all the 4 seasons… they all have their specialness and beauty.

I moved from Michigan to Florida 7 years ago. Believe it or not, I miss the Michigan winters and snowmobiling in the Upper Peninsula and Leelanau County.

@@rjimeson1 My family has lived in Michigan since 1870. All of them lived in Charlevoix County. I've known many people who have moved to other states including Florida and often they move back to Michigan. The biggest issue for most was they never felt "welcome" wherever they moved to or missed Michigan's seasons.

It was fun to go on a tour of your home town in the winter. I live in a place in the U.S. where it is every bit as cold as it is in Perm and the winds are fierce so the winters can be very brutal. In the last few weeks it has been common for the temperature to drop to -35 and -33 degrees at night and warm up to maybe -19 during the day. Like you do, we dress well for it in layers but we don't have outdoor shopping centers, just large indoor malls that I think you are familiar with. My favorite season is Autumn when the air is crispy and clear and the leaves turn to gold and red. I used to like winter more when I was involved in winter sports. I haven't skated since this time of year in Red Square three years ago but I had difficulty standing up. I learned to skate with figure skates and they only had hockey skates for men so it didn't work out so well except that I really enjoyed trying it and got some great pictures there. The weather in Moscow was very comfortable compared to where I came from.

I think the older people get, the more they hate the cold. But you have a long ways to go :)

All your videos that I watched , and I watched a lot of them, are great. I like your videos on Perm with Denis and Diana in them, they are supercute. I started learning Russian and nearing five months now even though about a year ago I had written that I was reluctant as it seemed difficult. Plan to be a1 in a few months. I am broke so won't check the app but I am glad that you got a language app sponsoring your video. Спасибо большое за твои видео.

yesterday it was -23 C where I am (northern WI, USA)! the towns here have depressions in the grass at the parks. they are filled with water and become skating rinks in the winter!

@pats725 2 года назад

Russians are hardy people I'd say. It doesn't get extremely cold here in Michigan, but cold enough to hurt. The worst part of Michigan winter in the opinion of many is the lack of sunshine. Dreary and depressing. Happy kids playing in the snow brightens things up. Your niece and nephew are adorable.

Saying hello from Perth, Australia yesterday the temperature here was 42C. Wouldn't mind some of that snow and ice. Nice show mate. Russia is a country that always intrigues us Australians.

Enjoyed learning about your life in Perm. Certainly it was very informative and also stereotype busting, these videos are very eye opening. Also you are beautiful with that red hair. I’m watching from Kentucky, USA. 👍🏼👍🏼

I imagined winter being like what you filmed in your video! I love season changes too. Especially fall time. His pink ice skates were the sweetest ❤️

In the Highlands of Scotland we sometimes have cold winter's, the coldest I remember was in the eighties with temperatures as low as -28°c. One year the gas imn our calor gas heater's froze and we had no heating for several weeks. We had a barn with a concrete floor so I learned to skateboard as a means to keep warm, I would also go cross country skiing to the local shop even at night if there was a full moon as you could see almost as good as during the day. I now live in a city with central heating and would struggle to live in these conditions. Loving your channel and excellent content and seeing a world where people are happy.
