I see people commenting about why can't he pay 400 bucks, its nothing. and Why he can not take buses rather than taking lifts! so people! understand that If he takes buses! you won't be able to see that how good these people are! How so many people are willing to help others! If he did not pay 400 bucks it does not mean that he does not have money! he simply showed how good these people are and if someone is stuck somewhere without money so he should not feel hopeless because he might find good people like mountaintrekker did, during his trip. So chill and do not show your concern here about India's image as there are many people here, who are ruining India's image everyday by doing so many bad things.
Thanks a lot, Travel freak. Also to add, I didn't stay here for free. I never stay for free, even while couchsurfing. I have my own way of paying back to my hosts. I prefer to remain silent and give a personal touch to my way of gifting.
MOUNTAIN TREKKER we are with you sir.. don't worry..keep it up 👍 and keep smiling as always..there are two sides of coin.😉 Hopefully you understand it depthly.
The way she said sorry to leave is touching my heart... She was really to go somewhere.. So she couldn't stay for more time.. still,she helped a lot.....
@Budget Offers You small brain man won't understand the joy of meeting different peoples and to know their culture. People like you judge others throughout their life and die. Get some life man.
Just commenting for the Russian kind hearted girl. I have never seen such a nice and helpful person in my life... People are for people. People like her give hope to others and instill faith of humanity in others. Many many many many thanks to the Russian girl. God bless you and bestow you with everything you deserve. Love and good wishes from Bangladesh.
Based on my own experience I thought Russians are pretty rude but this girl slapped on my face and proved me wrong. What an amazing soul who stand with the stranger and helped him all the way.

First i felt bad for him that she changed her plan n did not help him even after promising but later how she stood by him till late forgetting her own risky travel to mountains n how other people waived off his payment for room n even made it free n even gave him gift was heart touching....Love from India I will surely try my best to help foreigners if i could .....Russia u hve always shared good relations with India but today u hve proved the same....won ❤️...respect n lots n lots of Love frm India...
This can only happen in Russia. This lady standed with him for so long and helped him.In other western countries,forget about standing they wouldnt even reaply to a foreigner. This is why,Russians are so nicely treated in India.Every Indian whenver meets a Russian should pay back tgis kind of nice treatment with our gratitude.
Russians are really good people, She stood with him for quite a long time just to get him a lift. And 400 Russian Ruble isn't a big thing, it's under 500RS...sala India me 1000 se niche ek room nahi dete wo bhi Indians ko... Foreigners ko to loot lete hai.
Thanks to the lady too, she could have left him but she was there till the end..something not seen very often especially she had to go alone back and it was already dark. Hats off the lady, in spite of language barrier no one lost their cool and tried helping him. and ofcourse heartiest thanks to two lovely people who run the hotel.
I would ask the Indian government to give these Russian people an award......... amazing human beings.......... Я бы попросил индийское правительство дать этим русским людям награду ......... удивительные люди ..........
In this video i realized that how tough it is to travel alone in a country where no one understand your language, but still brilliant varun sir, you inspires me a lot.
Bro I am little sad when u said "whotarma ne kuch help nahi kara" vedio mai tho saaf did raha hai she tried the best hamesa free rehene ko milega thodi na possible hai it's ur passion they may u stay in their house it's their kindness so don't expect always be sure what u want to do RU-vid se aram se 400 mil gayega calculate it bro love u a last free tho mil gaya na phir u r happy so sad for us
bhai vo ye bhi keh rha tha ki she is really trying to help .............. actually vo ladki uske rehne ka arrangement nhi kr payi jabki usne bola ki vo kr degi .............. bs yehi that uske ye bolne ka matlab
She told him late that she won't be able to help, and that's he came to that place in the hope of staying arrangement, She helped as it was cancelled from her end.
Случайно наткнулся на ваше видео и с удовольствием посмотрел с русскими субтитрами. Хороших людей больше, наверно, у всех народов. Надо понимать, что эти люди не спонсоры, а зарабатывают этим и кормят свои семьи. Но мне было приятно за традиционное русское гостеприимство соотечественников! Девушка красивая;) Да, индийские песни старшее поколение помнит и любит по хорошим кинофильмам времён СССР )) Stumbled upon your video and love to watch with Russian subtitles. More good people, maybe all people. You have to understand that these people are not sponsors, and earn and feed their families. But I was pleased for the traditional Russian hospitality compatriots! Yes, Indian songs of the older generation remembers and loves good movies of the Soviet times ))
Dear Friend.. I had to use translator to understand what you wrote. Thanks to all the Russians to help this traveler. Love from India. Special thanks and love to the Girl. Very helpful, cute and pretty.
Дорогой Друг. Мне пришлось использовать переводчика, чтобы понять, что вы написали. Спасибо всем русским за помощь этому путешественнику. Любовь из Индии. Особая благодарность и любовь к девушке. Очень полезно, мило и красиво.
I watched it when i watched all videos of ur US trip till now and what i got that Russians are fare more helpfull and warm people than Americans without fake hi hello culture.
@Budget Offers he is hitchhiker...idiots like u dont know this concept. he also hosts many people who come to india so he is not getting things for free and he is govt. officer so dont woory about money.
@Budget Offers he is not asking for anything..they are giving him.and he is on couch surfing so people coming from other countries also get same treatment at his home in delhi. anyone can do the same. it helps to meet local people in foreign countries and also it helps other to stay at our Home in india when they come here... read about couch surfing and hitch hiking then you will understand everything.
@Budget Offers if he doesnt pay at all then you need to watch his last episode...his total expence is 24500 for this trip and he spend money on people who come from another coutries.
Was worried in the mid part but felt good looking at your smile, back again. Was indeed a trip to cherish. Thanks for the vlog again. Looking forward to see more, don't delay and post it quick. Coming out of eager.
Varun( 'The MT') shows the true spirit of backpacking. That's the real adventure and true meaning of backpacking!! It's not about the money(400 bucks is nothing), it's about the principle . He is showing us the real journey of a backpacker, not a swanky Travel show. A backpacker has to be frugal, he has to be a risk-taker. He takes the roads less traveled, meets new people, gets out of comfort zone...only then you see the real beauty of travelling and learn way more about human nature than any books can teach. And people, don't judge unless you are in the same shoes. He might be low on Russian currency, or might have paid them with gift(not to mention good advertisement for them on channel). Atleast , check the expressions of everyone: Girl was genuinely sorry and concerned about Varun, Varun was worried about her being late, the place owners cared about Varun, offered his own phone for wifi, discount , dinner and gift. How beautiful people can be!! Appreciate it! Way to go, Varun Good luck and godspeed!
sam fisher It's natural bro when you are in India you are in land of human race and you can expect the theory of survival of the fittest I have explained it earlier
Don't prejudge anything there are more robbers and looters in Russia I have witnessed it. Russia economy is not good. Many people are beggers there. Its same like India. It is only big country by area but corruption is mostly there. Beware when you go there
Hitchhiking sometimes is dangerous.. If sometimes didn't go in favour of you then to spend money in that situation is worthwhile...so why being upset for give money because they are providing you service. ND Russians are very kind hearted people.
Haters K Liye Message Hai .... Ap K Pass Zaida Money Ap Five Star Hotels Min Stay Karo Hamre Liye yeh Bhaii Saab hai Jo k Kafi Logo K Liye Hero Hain Cause Yeh Ap ko Living Standard in Limits Min Teach Karte Hain As a Pakistan i am his Fan .. Salute his Work He Is Our Inspiration ..... Appercaite Banta haii ... Hats Off Sir
What discount do you want? It is only 400 rubles (5euros). Its Russia, it is not India, you can't negotiate for everything there. The girl found you the place after hours of waiting time with you and you are bothering here with discount!
That girl tried to help you as much as possible..sometimes things are not in our hands. And I think that was a bit weird to ask for wifi on a 400 Rs hotel 😫
Russians are showing so much empathy and sympathy towards you...at least you should have paid them some amount as a gesture. Why so much inclination towards not spending money. You know as a result of your action they might think twice before helping others as humans become tired of helping others without getting anything in return. Look at their homes and the climate there, they aren't that rich, those 200-400 rs could have helped them in someway, can't you think about others sometimes. If you gave them something you should show that too, as your audience needs to see the complete picture.
@ dhaval pawale : that's call Russians and their hearts ..... they are absolutely crazy about Indians and Indian culture. I had similar incident in Kaunas city (2nd largest city in Lithuania) where the Russian Taxi driver who drove me back to outskirts of Kaunas city from Old town around 1 am in the middle of night to my friends Wlad place a bit away (drive around 45 mints from old city of Kaunas city ) as rolled on we both are singing Jimmy Jimmy Aaaja Aaaja song from Disco Dancer ;-) He can't speak a word of English neither I any Russian, but we had such wonderful 45 minutes of human to human connect it was incredible ...... Russians are special and they are very emotional people like us Indians ;-) So coming back to my story the taxi guy refused to take money in spite of my friend Wlad's repeated insists, coz he is a poor old guy but person with golden heart :-) I don't want hurt his feelings any further, but hugged him tight and tears rolling all over me just such a beautiful feeling. It was same situation with Tallinn (Estonia) Cab driver who played Bhagavad Geetha chants while on transit to my hotel. My past 20 years of living in Northern Europe esp my countless journies in Baltic countries and parts of Russia I encountered innumerable incidents where Russians and their interactions left me teary eyed and chocked with emotions. I feel blessed to have soo many Russian friends in my life :D
How how kind and helpful the Russian peoples are really big thanks to them they helped our brother in challenging situation... you are truly the ambassador of the concept Atithi Devo Bhava which are still not that much in india.. this is a really an inspiration.. And i do hope that my countries people will behave with foreigners in same way.
free ka kisi ko hajam nhi hota even during Couchsurfing you should give them something as a gesture. Don't look for hitchhiking everytime otherwise, you could be in big trouble someday. Prepare yourself.
You need to have a plan B in an alien country, Also, in India a man in distress can have shelter and need not to pay. My experience was that I had to take night halt due to my car broke down in a remote french village. I paid 100 francs (roughly 400 rupees in those days). Once we returned from rhotang pass, there was landslide, Bus conductor adjusted us in a nearby village. While leaving I slipped 100 note under the pillow so that old lady should not feel insult. This is the gross difference!
michael jhon 'alien' means a foreign place or a different culture which is not native to someone.. the term 'alien' has been rightly used.. for an Indian, Russia is an alien country and vice versa... Please check your facts and knowledge before criticizing others and specially someone who has more experience in life...
Alls well that ends well. The Russian girl was honestly embarrassed for not being able to help. But the hotel owners stole the show. Loved this episode. Big-hearted people.
Bcause of .tum dil ke bahot hi achhe hoge.bhole hoge.or sayad tumne yeh video me apne ko is ki jagah paaya hoga. Khusi ke aasoo bhi ho sakte he. Yeh video ki khasiyat yeh he ki jab video play hota he to ham apne aap ko iski jagah rakh lete he or pataa hi nahi chaltaa ki kab video puraa ho gayaa.or ham varun ki khusi ko apni khusi or uske gam ko apnaa gam maante hoge . Saayad isiliye ho sakta he ki aap ro rahe ho.
I got emotional during one of his Morocco's video. People's kindness and love really touches heart on a deeper lover. Btw, just today I've found this channel and have been totally hooked.
sab acha hai bhai ji but Nana ji kehte the... Mere Nana ji... ye sabse acha lga. Main jo dekh rha hu or samajh rha hu shayad or bhi samajhte ho but main words mein btaa nhi sakta. Pure soul.
I felt emotional when andrey n zhenia offered their room for free. Russians are truly helpful people. Your vlogs truly help us to know stuff on a personal level. Can you send me any contact for crown of khatun. Mail or vkontact or fb. Just wanted to convey my appreciation for taking care of a fellow Indian. Such good nature should not go unappreciated
Good Gesture of Russians. I Luv Russia and Mr. Vladimir Puttin is a great personality in Russia. Your Gimbal is working very fine dear. I am also a fresh youtuber. :Sansoft Smart Shop"
Wow she is good as human being thats why russian and indian are good friends, I wish could say hello to her just amazing girl , she was stand on road to get a help for varun for long time.
Be careful bro about this hitchhiking and couch surfing stuff it is risky..... 99% people are Good.... 1% I am not sure....always think twice before you do anything while travelling in unknown land's....safety comes first...
AMIN You are 100 % Correct. Not necessary that everyone who hitchhikes may be lucky like Varun Vagish. If one encounters ulti khopdi wale 1 % log then it's Game Over for the hitchhiker. In such situations whom will one call for help ? Varunbhai toh lucky ho gaye kyunki Kismat acchi thi unki jo unhe 99 % acche log mile throughout Russia trip.
AMIN just pray that varun always be safe and make such amazing videos for us.. I'm sure he may be doing all the homework n may be informing his friends n family about his whereabouts time to time....
Though i have enjoyed many of your videos I would like to point out a thing or two that, in my opinion, are not wise. Seeing your videos one can realize that you are a perennial hitchhiker and too frugal of a person. One should be wary and prepared prior to a journey and that includes foreseeing the economic and other mishaps that can happen while traveling. One can not always be frugal and not use his resources when he is in emergency situations like you were in this video. Human beings are inherently good and social beings who like to help others. One should not always be on the receiving side of this generosity even when he can spare his own money. The tension evident on your face in the video makes me think till what level are we reluctant to spend. We can couchsurf and hitchhike once in a while but should not make it our habit. It's the goodwill and generosity of the person helping a traveler but the traveler needs to realize his responsibilities too. We can not always be dependent on others and expect them to do things for us while we travel. A Go Pro costs Rs 35000 and here we are concerned about 400 rupees ! That being said, i hope you become less frugal in your upcoming trips and keep on making informative videos. Good luck !
please understand that he is trying to show what actually means to be hitchhiker. you lose essence if everytime you face a tough situation and go back to your plan B.
