Life in a Small Russian Town: On the Way to Local Post Office / Finally Good News / Different Russia 

I was very surprised to see Sheffield allowed to go inside the post office. Russia is probable more tolerant with animals in public places.

I enjoy visiting Russia with you. Thank you...

Great clear video...i always enjoy them. Ken in Michigan USA

The "snow" reminds me of my time in Moscow. I would walk down the streets with the dandelion seeds floating through the air. It was magical.

Good news about the packages! I wish everything would return to the way it was! Love to Sheffy and Kitty! ❤️

I loved riding my scooter 60+ years ago. It was such fun. Then I got a bicycle. Like you I'll give it a miss

Congratulations on your birthday and getting 100,000 subscribers. All the best 🇬🇧.

Happy Belated Birthday!🎂🎂🎂 I hope you had a fantastic day!! It was so nice to see Sheffield he is so handsome I love how his fur shines!! Please give him and Kitty a hug and a kiss from me🥰🥰 Tell Alex that my hubby David says Hello! It’s good to hear that you can get mail from and send mail to US !!! Maybe I will send you something!! We have those boxes like you showed for sharing clothes , a lot of people in need have been helped with those boxes. When my husband broke his back we got help for clothes for our children because it took forever to get him back to work. Well hope to see you soon, Love you both Lisa and David🙏❣️

"No, he's just an old boy". Valeria you are so wonderfully Russian it warms me.

Greetings from Naples, Florida. Now, that is a very nice town! We enjoyed the tour and your narration. Thank you for sharing with us, have a great week. 👍💯

Happy belated birthday Valeria! 🎂💐 Hopefully Alex & Sheffield made it a special day for you!

Valeria, I agree that to coverup the old brick on the school destroys the historic value.

There is a young RU-vidr known as Sanctioned Ivan who needs to complete his Moscow apartment. Many of us on his channel encouraged him to contact you and Alex for some tips and information on where to buy materials. He is a good kid and I hope you have time to communicate with him. Thank you.

Nice weather y'all are having. It's lovely to see Sheffield out and about. I agree with you, there are some things that don't need to be modernized. I love historical architecture. The bricks on the kindergarten were beautiful. HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎈🎂🎈🎂🎈. Wonderful news you can get/send packages from the states. Thank you again for sharing 😊. May God continue to bless you and your family in body, mind and spirit. See you soon!

Happy belated Birthday Valeria! ❤ From Paula and Petra Yfraimov.

Happy belated birthday. Best to Alex and hugs to Sheffie and Kitty.

Happy Birthday Blessings Valeria💕 Greetings sweet boy Sheffie😘 Love to see you both outside😍

Happy Birthday Valeria! And Happy Fathers day Alex. Good news about postal service. You look very nice today. I like your shirt and sunglasses. Hope you enjoyed your day and Alex also. Good to see Sheffie and that he is getting out and enjoying himself.

Hope you had a happy birthday and it was good to see sweet Sheffield.

I so hope that USA gifts can get through to you and Alex, Sheffield and Kitty. Yay, such good news.

I wish to travel back to Russia...❤.

Regarding the renovation of the old music school. I think it is a thermal formwork to insulate the building and thus use less heating. It's not very pretty, but it's very effective. Olivier tree from France

Happy Belated Birthday !! I hope it was WONDERFUL 🎉🎂

Happy belated Birthday, Valeria. I hope your wishes come true. 🎂🎉💐 We have the same trees we call cottonwood trees. We also have bins to collect clothing for the poor or to raise money for charity. It’s nice that there is one in your neighborhood.

Happy Belated Birthday always great to see you and my friend Sheffield

Happy Birthday Valeria 🌺🌷🎂 We hope your Special Day/Year is filled with good health and happiness 🎂❤️

We have the same here. It does look like it’s snowing & its 23c outside? 😮

Happy Belated Birthday Valeria, Somewhat Good News Sounds Like Sanctions For Russia Are At And End, I Am Very Happy About This, Russia Is A Beautiful Country With Beautiful People, Wendy

Hi🤗🤗! Happy Belated Birthday 🎉🎂

The white fluff is from cottonwood trees or at least what we call them in Minnesota. We have them in abundance also. Peace to you and your family. God Bless!

When I sent a package from the US to Saint Petersburg last June it went by way of Dubai, instead of Finland as had been the case before the sanctions.

It's time we all need good news! Yey! M.aybe things are looking up. 😊 Lo e taking walks with you and Sheffield. ❤

So glad you can get parcels now 👍🏼 lovely family ❤

Valeria, So glad that you can send and receive packages to and from the USA . Hope all goes well . Tell Alex hello !

Happy birthday Valeria, I wish you all the best from Canada! Hugs! 🎂🎁 Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for the video, I enjoy watching your family very much. Большое спасибо

Cotton Wood fluff was very bad here as well. No rain for 21 days. At times it did look like it was snowing.

My son-in-law who is from Texas moved to New York. A few weeks ago I was visiting and he commented on the white fluff drifting through the air and falling on the ground. Not being familiar with cottonwood trees, he thought that birds were dropping feathers as they flew.

Happy Belated Birthday !🎉 I hope your family spoiled you. Happy Father's Day Alex!

Cotton wood trees. It reminds me of a summer here in Minnesota. I hope all is well, peaceful, and safe. God bless.

I think those trees are cotton wood trees I was living in Albuquerque new Mexico there were alot of those trees. There is a mall called Cottonwood mall.

Here in Michigan we also get the white snow like seeds. Some years more than others. We must have similar weather

Although we are now able to ship to Russia, please note that the shipping cost is quite high.

I don't know how I found this channel, but that was awesome. I never seen Russia before like that. Seems like a nice place to live. Thanks, take care

I always enjoy seeing Mr Handsome Sheffield...❤🐶

Happy birthday 🎉 hope you had a wonderful day!

I'd love to see everything to go back to normal. I'm not sure it will anytime in the next year anyway.

The Russia I've been able to see on RU-vid is beautiful. I love the trees and green plants everywhere. I think I'd not like winter, though. That's why I live in California. Much love to you and I hope we can find peace together.

We have cottonwood trees here too. Actually, the pollen that creates the white fluffy seeds comes first and people have allergies to the pollen. The seeds that fly around looking like snow are too large to be breathed, so they get blamed for pollens harmful allergy ❤

Happy Birthday 🎁

A happy belated birthday to you. Its nice to the nice warm weather has arrived and i hope it does not get to hot as it it is uncomfortable. It is better than the cold and wet weather. Its just as well you didn't post Sheffield

I love Sheffie!

That "snow" is from cottonwood trees. We have them in the northern United States. I am very allergic to what they shed this time of year. We can't plant this tree anymore. It clogs up air conditioners, etc. and makes an awful mess. Sheffie always looks like he is in a lot of pain. He must be hot in this weather too. Poor baby. It's good news that the postal service to the US is working for you again. Thank you Valeria!

I live in New Mexico, USA and have a cottonwood tree blooming just like yours. The cotton is floating everywhere

Happy birthday 🍰 glad you can do parcels with US ... Have a great week ❤️

It Looked like a beautiful day I can't say the same about where I live, joy you got your dacha furniture and I hope you had a happy birthday, hope you are doing well Alex and Valerie 😊😊

Happy Father’s Day to Alex and a Belated Birthday to you Valeria. It was a wonderful surprise to find at the post office today that mail may be better coming and going! I am in Canada and would dearly love to get one of your toys for my great niece who is also named Alex. And I would be thrilled to send some toy parts you may need if possible. Please keep us updated on everything! 🙋‍♀️

I too prefer the original bricks to buildings and trees. I like trees. So wonderful about the news.

Happy Birthday Valeria!!!!! 🎂 🎈

You look very beautiful in your summer attire! 💃💐

Is great too see you again God bless you and your family.

Good news!!! And Sheffie!! ❤❤❤❤

Happy Birthday Valeria🎉🥳💖 😊

Thanks!

Love your video.

The ‘snow’ is from poplar trees. We have the same in Vienna, Austria. It gets everywhere May / June.

Happy Birthday Valeria (I'm a little bit late). 🥳🎉

С Днем рождения!

Happy Birthday 🎉

0:04 we had that about a month, or so, ago in WA state, probably same latitude

Happy birthday🎉🎁🎂

So glad to see your fur baby again. I was hoping all was well well with him. We also have an English black lab. Love from Buffalo NY.

We had the same thing here in Upstate NY. Cottonwood trees,,very hard on allergies

I wanna send Sheffield some puppy chow. I love Sheffield.

Thanks! Still loving your independent content. Tell sheffield i said Hi.

I know these trees! I live in South Africa and my cousin is a plant seller. He planted these trees years ago and when we bought the house we couldn't believe we have snow! The story is that Stalin planted these as street trees, is this true? Love from South Africa 💗💕

happy belated birthday.

Thank for new video. Sheffie looks great. it was hot.

@ 0:22 whoaaa thats cool

Cute dog.

Happy Belated Birthday to you!!! I hope you had a wonderful birthday!! Tell Alex hello for me!! Love your videos!!! GOD bless!

Happy Father's Day to Alex and happy belated birthday to you. Can you receive packages from the US? Please, please touch the ground with your hand to make sure it is not too hot for Sheffield's little feet. Love from Los Angeles.

Hot here in east Texas also 5 pm and 38 C 100 F feels like 47 C❤

I live in Ontario Canada 🇨🇦, we have fully funded full day Junior Kindergarten and Senior Kindergarten for 4 and 5 year olds, absolutely free and located in the schools, hours are from when school starts till it ends in the afternoon, most schools offer after school care for a fee.....but spaces are limited. I coukd not imagine littles being in a day care long enough to have supper. Most day cares here close at 6 pm. In the 2000s it was just half day junior and senior Kindergarten and my boys went from 830 to 11 30 everyday monday to friday, it worked out because i was a stay at home mom. Prior to Kindergarten i put my kids in play groups and nursery schools a few days a week. It worked out well. The orange Kindergarten is quite inviting to the kids being such bright colours, i understand why the covered the old brick. ❤

those glasses look great on you

👍🙏

I also like small towns, and to not be in the big city. So I think I can relate to a small town like for this video.

Kensington Ave is a bigger tourist attraction than the liberty bell

Dear Alex: I would like to see a video about how you maintain your car, how you purchase cars and parts there, new or used what are the popular brands, and how you maintain the cars in extreme weather. When do you use a mechanic and where do you go to repair your car, and/or how much of it can you do yourself? For instance, in Canada and Alaska, we have heaters that plug into the cars, to keep the oil warm. I also understand that you carry a first aid kit as it's required, and WOW that seems like a very good idea indeed! I would also like to know about fishing and hunting there. Do you have fees/permits for this? What kind of fish and wildlife is there, and how are hunting rifles regulated there? Happy Father's Day, and All the Best! 73 DE W8LV Bill

As we say, double check, verify! Better safe than sorry!!!!

When was your birthday Valeria late may or early June you must be a Gemini love your videos 😊

Shefiel has lots of foreign friends..!!!

Hope it is the same for Australia!!!!

Love Shefield

👋🤞

How can we order one of your toys, where can we see them?

Donation boxes for various itemsj. Some are owned by for profit sales or non profit given to help.

I hope you had a very nice birthday 🎂. I'm so glad about import/export between Russia and the United States. I believe that in 2025 relationships between the two countries will improve greatly. That's all I will say on this subject. Beautiful Sheffield 🥰🤗 So happy to see him. God bless you and your family.

Tiles?. Cladding. Most likely Thermal cladding. :)
