As a person who was born in Moscow and lived here all my life, I can show you exactly this part of our big Russia. So, please have in mind that of course in average shopping centres in Russia can be not that big / fancy, however, of course there are exceptions. I hope you enjoyed the video. I am really sorry about some strange sounds my mic produced throughout almost the whole video. I am now trying to identify the reason. ------------------------------ If you feel it, you can support me & my family with expenses on kids and buying better equipment for the next videos: PayPal: paypal.me/zangieffrus Please use FRIEND option only (skip buyer's protection window or your support will be a "commercial" one) Patreon (limited access Discord server available): www.patreon.com/zangieff/ ------------------------------ Please feel free to leave any suggestions for new videos!

Didn't notice the sound, but good looking out! I guess production can always improve, right? 😅 By the way, the Metro going directly to the mall is so convenient!!
I didnt really have any issues from your mic dude. The sound quality was acceptable for what you are doing. Those Moscow malls look really cool! Great video and channel, love from America!
As someone who is not from either country (I'm from NZ) but has lived in both, I can say that shopping malls in Russia in general (not only Moscow) are much cleaner, in much better condition, and use more hard-wearing construction materials than shopping malls in the USA. But you have to show VEGAS / Crocus City Mall.
What a contrast to those famous scenes from early 90s Ussr , long queues- empty shelves- this mall is amazing! But in common with all shopping mall visits it starts with a sense of anticipation / excitement and ends with a headache and ‘let me out of here’! Your mom is so sweet by the way ! Really cool video thank you.
When visiting Moscow and Russia in 1984, the difference between with France had come as a shock to me. The almost empty stores, the queues and what struck me the most, the plastic that did not exist at all in the USSR ... Only the Goum at that time could be proudly shown to tourists. Your video shows that now you have nothing to envy us, or even the opposite :-) Sure I'll go back to visit Moscow but probably not anymore in March ;-)
I had the same thoughts as you when I visited Moscow in 1987 the stores with near empty shelves and the quality of fresh food looked terrible compared to what I was accustomed to in Australia. Certainly the quality of life in Russia has improved in the long term after the chaos of the 1990's transition period.
Great video! Im new to your channel, was recommended to your channel by dari , Natasha and Eli and I’m happy I found it, you have really interesting videos. It would be cool to see a video on grocery store price comparisons. Cheers from Canada!
Cool place, the first mall! The grocery *store* looked identical to those we have here in the US, though! Including the *isle* full of *chips* and other junk food 😉 But I'd say the kid's areas are nicer in Moscow. Thanks for introducing us to your мама (с папой), and I am so glad she found a phone she loved 💚💖
Great video. Your shopping mall looks exactly like the type we have in Canada. The large indoor area is called a courtyard in Canada. As you are in Moscow if you have time can you make a in-depth video about Red Square and the onion shaped buildings and Lenin's mausoleum/tomb. I am sure most tourists want to see that and not all of us may get there. Keep up the great work.
What's a shopping mall? Oh yeah, I kind of remember those. I miss them. We used to have them in the USA, but that was before Amazon, and Super Walmarts.
Interesting video, thanks! I for one would really enjoy another video of you shopping in that grocery store, maybe spending some time on all those cheeses and sausages and what's most popular in Moscow. What kind of chips and sweets are most popular etc.
Shopping malls full of shops that sell things that I would never buy. This happens everywhere. Maybe the parking lot is not filled with customers. Those cars are more likely to be workers from nearby office buildings.
Hey man. Thats great that you were able to get your mother's phone!! Also, did I hear correctly, you were able to purchase a phone for your father also? I liked this video. I'm always interested to see what shops and restaurants are available in Russia. I like to see the prices and how much does it cost. You were talking about globus. Maybe I can help with something. Maybe you can go to globus and say, have a specific amount, and you show ,this is what you can buy in Russia with say $50, or $30, or whatever amount you would pick. Cool video man.
Thank you again for this interesting video. Looks like in Moscow shopping centers look exactly the same as in western cities. I personally have lesser experience with such big shopping centers since I live in the countryside and have long changed to mostly online shopping (except for groceries, hardware stores and stuff). And traditional shopping like what I did when I was younger has become more and more exhausting over time, see my other comment below here. I do like the concept of public transport integrated in shopping centers but I cannot see myself lugging round heavy things like for example a TV set in a metro, tram or bus. Also great to briefly see the happy owners with their new toys ... 🤣
Ya zangieff a video about the Russian super market products would be cool! (It looked normal to ours in USA, but I imagine the products are different and specific to Russia 😜), also idea...maybe a video about Russian food dishes? 🤔 Just a thought!
Maladez. You show the german grocerie store GLOBUS. When I go next day to the market in Star City (1 hour to the east), I notice, that Russia is a special country.
In some cases, buying something turns into a real adventure. Especially when it comes to women.😂 You are a good son, your mother is clearly pleased with the gift!👍😊
Wonderful video! Pronunciation tips: trampoline is pronounced trampoleen; clothes is a one-syllable word pronounced klohths--the "th" is voiced. When you pronounce the voiced "th" in clothes, just continue to draw your tongue back to the "s" position. It's an insanely difficult word for a non-native speaker to say. Good luck!
When english speaking westerners say"clothes" most of time it sounds like close. "I'm goings to buy some new close" The "th" is so soft seldom notice or hear it. So if you actually said "close" I'd be willing to bet most English speakers wouldn't even notice.
This is so cool! I love seeing this kind of day to day stuff from other countries. It reminded me of living in France, they have a lot of shopping malls with grocery stores connected to them. Do you guys also bag your own items or do the cashiers do it for you?
