      You are not credible.
      Your father is now in good company with thousands of dead Russians and Ukrainians...
      You are not credible.
      You speak five languages, you are good, you are sensitive. Very good.
      In all these years, not a word against the war...
      You are not credible.
      You talk about Russian culture.
      What appears today is only culture of death...
      You are not credible.
      Autocracy, repression, censorship, torture and no outrage, only silence...
      You are not credible.
      Indiscriminate bombing, rape, looting, energy blackmail, economic and global destabilisation...
      You are not credible.
      But you are Russian...
      This is not politics.
      It is humanity.
      And those who read you know it.
      You are not credible.
      Children murdered, deported, old men and women refugees in foreign lands, with nothing left...
      You are not credible.
      Lies, propaganda, lies again, false motives, interests and justifications for an unprovoked and unjustified 'special military operation'...
      You are not credible.
      Nuclear threats, continuous violations of signed international agreements, violence, and more violence, despite international appeals...
      You are not credible.
      It is not politics.
      It is terrorism, it is terrible, it is war.
      You are Russians...
      It is not politics.
      You are not credible.
      You travel, monetizing and live serene and detached, you celebrate and are happy as if nothing happened.
      You are not credible.
      Thousands of Putin's willing executioners...
      It is only a culture of fear and death.
      And you, otherwise, belong to it and support it...

    Eli, First of all I am so sorry you lost your dad. My favorite video you did was the visit to him, the cat who didn’t want to get his paws frozen and of course the visit to the dairy. I too was raised on a dairy farm. Your content is beautiful, the scenery, the interaction with the locals and in this current the music selection was wonderful. We, the common people, must find a way to tell our governments that we want to live together in peace and end this constant distrust between our peoples. The Russian people are a good people and through your videos I have come to realize that we have so much in common and it’s time to use those commonalities to promote peace and harmony. Your are a beautiful person and have a beautiful soul. Continue your travels and your videos. Know that you are making a difference in your efforts. Bart

      People to people contact is only a beginning. The problem of war is resident mainly in the attitudes of the armaments industry because they profit the most, at billions and now trillions of dollars. With them the bankers and the oil companies. Also construction companies who make so much cleaning up the debris and rebuilding cities. Until the big money guys are kept under control as to their greed for money, we the little people will have to continue being victimized by that greed. Holding hands and thinking sweet thoughts isn't good enough.

    Thnx from North West Canada - love the sound of the train in winter. Russia/the Soviets (sorry, can't tell who did what) developed their north much differently than Canada did - very interesting to compare them. And for your descriptions of the land & water & people.

    Hi Elli. Your channel is superb, a different experience every time. Ironically, through such troubled times, I feel that a window has been opened to your country for the 🌎 to see. It's many cultures, natural beauty, and the people have had exposure, and one can feel a lot of inspiration and enlightenment emanating from your side of the woods... A lot more than most Russians would be aware! Your channel adds to that, amongst a plethora of other reasons! 👍🏼Big up the bear 🐻 with the Red hair... From Britain 🇬🇧
