Hi guys! Please leave your questions in the comments for the upcoming Q&A!
Very beautiful.
Are there any russian music artists that you can recommend? I started to listen to Loboda a year ago and would like to discover more russian music.
Leningrad was severly damaged during WW2 and many thousands people killed. Very sad!
How did the USSR/Russia manage to rebuild St Petersburg to become the beautiful city it is now?
Where did the money come from? And who/what was the driving force?
Why did you stop being a flight attendant. And, do you hate winter...that wasn't clear 😂
Rock Chalk Jay Hawk from a fellow alum! My family really enjoys your vlog - it is fun to see how you and your family lives. We are fellow travelers and foodies and want to know the recipe for the Adjapsandal that you made on your outings to the countryside. It looks amazing. Thanks in advance.
My wife and I very much appreciate you and the journey that you share with us. Thank you!
I love your videos! I was born in Russia but my mom & I moved to NYC when I was a year old. Your videos provide such a genuine outlook on a life & I really appreciate it :) St. Petersburg is gorgeous!
Born and raised in Brighton Beach and grew up in "Little Odessa"
You beautiful Lizzy and have good day 🌹🌹😘
I’ve heard that Russia is more advanced in beauty treatments than the US. Like for instance there is Russian women in different countries that will travel back to Russia to get their hair/nails done because no other country can compare to the Beauty Masters of Russia! What type of beauty treatments can you get in Russia that you can’t get in other countries? Also what are some beauty tips that Russian women swear by.
I used to travel a lot internationally in my job and the best lesson of all from this was that there are good and kind people everywhere, all wanting to have a good life and to support their families. I love watching Vlogs such as yours as they reinforce this message and help people see past all of the political nonsense that citizens are told about other countries and their peoples.
I am half English and half German and have a Russian wife (from Crimea).
I remember experiencing the craziness of the Siberian climate when on one trip we were walking to an Irish pub in Novosibirsk city centre in 25C minus and six months later avoiding the mosquitos at a picnic barbecue and wild strawberry picking in the woods by the bank of the Ob river.
Your Vlogs are excellent, keep up the good work. Greetings from London.
Thanks for showing us the beautiful scenery of a snowy day in Saint Petersburg. Thanks so much for banning politics from your channel. Many of us are so sick of that topic and that's one reason we choose to watch happy and uplifting channels like yours. 👍 Take care and have a pleasant and rewarding week.
I’m very jealous of the snow 👏 for your Q & A, in your personal view, what is the best and worst thing about living in Russia? For example, choice of foods, job opportunities, social life ? Love your videos of St Petersburg, let’s see some more. Stay safe and warm
Don’t be jealous of snow lol I live in Western New York (USA) and we get winters like Russia, I agree with Svetlana winter is good for a few days not many months lol 😂
@@danielshaverjr2149 I live in London and all we get is drizzle 🌧 😭😭😭
@@vincifernandez1137 I was born and raised in San Francisco. We get more than our share of fog and drizzle. Maybe that's why we get so many visitors from London. The weather makes them feel at home lol
@@LuckyBaldwin777 ahhh, in movies, the sun always shines in San Fran. Been to the east coast a few times, west coast is on my bucket list once covid settles down 👍
Hi Svetlana, thank you for your lovely and interesting videos. Growing up in Siberia, how did you end up living in St. Petersburg ? Is your entire family living nearby? What are you doing for work these days? I would suggest modeling! Thanks again!
What was it like going to school as a child in Siberia? I’m a teacher in the US and I’m always curious about what schools are like in other countries. Thanks!
I'm sure you've seen other you tube Siberia education videos.
Come to the Caribbean in my country of Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹. Beautiful sunny weather. Sun, sea, sand, and great local food and drink. 🍹🌴
You are very very fortunate... I envy you for sure... 🤜
@Leo Awwww, thank you. I wait for you to visit. You have an open invitation.
I feel the same way about winter. I'm from Michigan but moved to Florida.
I adore snowy winter 😍
@@Natashanjka that's great. 👌
Florida is my dream. Hate winter in Norway. And when it start raining it never stoppes for months...Lived in New port Richey many times for vacation 30 -35 years ago.
In 1988, I visited the Soviet Union (Moscow, Leningrad, Kiev, Rovno, Novovoronezh, Voronezh, Pripyat, Chernobyl and the Chernobyl Nuclear Plant). Your videos confirm that conditions have improved substantially since I visited. I am happy you don’t have to live under those conditions. Please keep posting! I hope to see how Christmas and New Years are celebrated today! I have a question for you; how did you find yourself at Kansas University?
I really like this video and the music is superbly classy and stately, like Saint Petersburg.
I'm with you, winter sucks and one day is plenty. As long as the winters are, you'd think that there'd be lots of Green Houses everywhere and that apartments and houses would be fitted with them, so that people could successfully grow plants year-round?
St isac's Cathedral is amazing. You can get an idea of how huge it is, by looking at the size of the people using the cat-walk rising from the right bell tower.
I would definately ride in one of the royal coaches, just for the experience. The Winter Palace is remarkable and massive.
Question time.
You speak English well, where did you learn it?
Do you have any university education and what is it?
What is your personal mission for your life?
What is your next goal you'd like to accomplish?
You read books, so what is your reading interest? Meaning, do you read all subject matters or do you prefer one more than the others? Example: SciFi, Fantasy, Crime, Mystery, Biography, History, Fiction, Religious, Self Help, Gardening, etc..
Where would you like to spend the rest of your life? Or, where in the world do you like most and would be happy there?
Do you believe in God?
I am a new subscriber who has fallen in love with you, but not to worry because I am 82 years old. You are giving my wife and me a glimpse into Russia which we have not anticipated but we are thrilled to know exists. Presently we are in a very stressful time and my hope is that in my remaining short years we can live together in peace and share the bounties of our countries and people. Your videography is making that dream come true. As a final note, I share your language as a Cold War military veteran trained to monitor the Russian military in the 1950-60’s
I'm born and raised in Hawaii, the Winters here are just like Spring! I simply love your videos! It makes me want to get on a plane and move there. You have a way of presenting your videos in a way that makes me feel like family. I know as a Stewardess you traveled to many locations. Question: How does living in Russia compare with living anywhere else? Where is your favorite place to be, and why aren't you there? (if your favorite place isn't St Petersburg.)
Are you kidding me ? ...Hawaii is everybody's dream . Hang on to it with both hands
I am the opposite, I wish we would get snow at least sometimes ! I live in California in the heart of the wine country. We hardly get any rain. It seems like we are always in a drought. Our good weather here is year around. I would love Russia for maybe a month lol.. I love your videos 👍👍👍
Visit NYC if you want snow. Or NE states.
Thank you for sharing this snow day. It’s absolutely beautiful. Snow is so novel for me.
My question for you: have you ever visited California, especially where I was born & live, San Diego? (We’re very close to Mexico) 😊
I ask because if you’re not very fond of the snow but enjoy it for a couple days, you may really like it here in winter…..you can go to our mountains to ski in the morning, drive home through the desert and go watch a sunset in the evening all in about an hour. ♥️
I am from Chicago, Siberia in the United States. Coldest temperature I remember was minus 28 degrees F. I moved to Los Angeles along the beach, it was 79 degrees F today. I enjoy seeing your videos from Russia, perhaps I will visit in the summer.
I can not more agree with you. I was in Saint Petersburg during the year change of 2002 / 2003 and it was sooooooo cold, some minus 25 and with wind chill some minus 40. Everything was retracted inside my double trousers!. The upside was: I never made so many beautiful snow pictures! Thank you for your video! Regards from the NL
1. If Emirates called you up and asked you to return as a flight attendant would you accept? 2. Of all the countries you have visited, which one has the friendliest people? 3. Your favorite: Blini or Borscht?
I’m a gun owner and I’m want to see what a gun store looks like in Russia. Thank you for this video these buildings in Russia is really a work of art.
I'm similar to you with being tired of winter. Being from Chicago (one of the more brutal winter cities in the U.S.), I now live in California. Enough said?
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be and why? Also, what kind of car would you own if money was not an issue? There are so many questions I would like to ask 😆
I picture Svetlana driving a Jeep with the top down. She seems to love the outdoors 🙂
Merry Christmas Svetlana. May you and family have an awesome time in the festive season. From the summer season of Auckland NZ.
You have a lovely presenting style very natural . You give a fantastic insight into your life and I am looking forward to an insightful journey . St Petersburg is a beautiful city ..
Stay warm my friend. Snow is beautiful but I know people who live there wish it wouldn’t last very long. Come to USA and enjoy the warm weather. Be safe. Stay blessed
As I have always said, "War is a losing proposition for all." Your videos are a refreshing alternative to news media because it is so difficult to look inside a country from afar. Yes we do want to know how the current circumstances are affecting the general public in Russia.
I hate winters too , I've met people from Novosibirsk that moved to Sochi to avoid cold ...
It’s simply heavenly, then so are you. It’s looks very Christmasy
What was it like growing up in Siberia? What work did your parents do and how did you find a way to move to St Petersburg? Your videos are excellent.
Many thanks for a lovely seasonal video and for braving the cold to make it. Please can you do a video about the Russian Orthodox Christmas on 7 January?
Regarding the Q&A What are you’re personal plans and wishes for the future in you’re vast and beautiful country?
How can you hate winter? A coating of snow makes the most desolate places beautiful. It comes as no surprise though, with all the videos of you in tropical places or swimming. I love winter though and miss the snow. It does not snow where I live now. You might like it though, it gets up to 118 degrees Fahrenheit. Don't worry, you are not the only one who do not care to discuss politics. Where would you live outside of Russia? What is your favorite place you have been. And where do you dream of going(if you haven't been there already). I'll give you one guess where my dream destination is. I look forward to your Q&A video.
It's pretty easy to hate winter when it lasts 6+ months and you can't go out anywhere because of it, and the steering wheel in your car is too cold to touch. And the RH is zero and you have to take a bath every day to stop your skin falling off.
Svetlana, You must come to Bangkok in the season of the summer solstice. It's warm and the sun is high and the sky is blue and filled with fluffy white clouds that seem to glow in the tropical sky. This time of year makes the sunshine so vivid and special. Hope to see you here some day, Thailand Paul
Thank you for braving the winter cold and snow to bring us this video! I guess one question would be that if you could live anywhere in the world year round where would that place be, and do you think that you would get homesick for Russia?
Svetlana, You Are Very Warm & Lovely GOD Bless~ Shalom~ :)
So beautiful , I love Piter and the snow.
Thank you for the nice video o enjoy watching and listening to you👋
I would like to know more about your grandmother and hear her recite poetry. Also, could you teach us how to say things like hello, thank you, and goodbye? Love your channel!
Agree! Her grandmother is sooooo cute!!!
Good show,! Thanks from Detroit Michigan USA Harold
Who is your fiancé and how did you meet? What are your plans together?
What do you do for work?
What camera and video editor do you use/other equipment?
What do you want to accomplish next year? What about in your life?
What’s your impressions of US, having lived there?
What do you want to make a video on but for some reason never would?
Thanks !! Your update !! This is the first I watching your Vlog !! Have a Blessed a Day !! From; Milwaukee USA 🇺🇸
At work right now, but I’ll watch your new episode later in the day. 🍂🍁❄️
Only found your channel today.
I like it very much that you show everyone your homeland.
In Iowa today temp was 74 deg! Unseasonably warm, followed by many thunderstorms and some tornadoes. Most unusual weather. I have 2=question 1- do you have a job other than U-Tube? 2- My wife and I are scheduled to do Moscow to St Petersburg in summer 2022. Do you have any recommendation for a St Petersburg guide for two days. The guide would have to be fairly fluent in English. We will have The Viking tour company day in St Petersburg, but have booked an additional two days. Hopefully Covid will not cause cancellation as it did for that trip this past summer. I really enjoy you and your channel, you bring intelligence, grace and beauty to your productions which enhances the beauty of your part of Russia. We were in St Petersburg two years ago.
I thought about you while I was working the other day. You seem to be a combination of a very refined person and yet down to earth, I wondered how that came to be? Thanks.
Love your videos. Its an opportunity to see still unknown country of Russia through your videos and words.
1. First question are you married
2. If money was no object, which country in the world, you would consider vacationing for an entire year.
3. Have you ever modeled any clothing lines.
4. Outside of a diamond which colored stone, would be your favorite to wear on your finger.
5. Would you ever consider moving to another country where it is warm eight months of the year.
Hi Svetlana.
I enjoy watching your content! Thank you for sharing your viewpoints of Russia.
My question is, what have you enjoyed learning the most since you started your RUclips Channel?
That is beautiful and I could be filled up with enough winter in a few days. I love the sun, the heat and water. Ice, snow, darkness, cold....not so much. I'm glad you said something about no politics, I totally agree with that and love how you always keep your content very positive. That is a wonderful quality of yours that is very appealing as are many others too. Given your strong family connections I could not imagine you wanting to move anywhere far. Do you like sailing, water skiing or scuba diving? While I do enjoy seeing places & historic things, I mostly enjoy the people content you share, like family, friends, picnics, food. I see the pure joy there and that is something I love.
LOL...You crack me up! I HATE winter as well! One day of snow and maybe a couple days of cold and I'm Done! Ready for the beach or tropical climates asap...Lol!
Girl, you are my kind. Don't like cold winters and politics. Totally agree.
Enjoy the snow beautiful Svetlana! Here in Singapore is either sunny or raining!😊😊😊
I’m with ya girl, I absolutely despise anything to do with snow or cold….period!
Where do you live? Is it an apartment? What is the inside of your home like? What’s your typical day like? Do you have a job as well as doing your channel? Do you prefer Russia to the places you have visited overseas as an air hostess?
Merry Christmas !! Svetlana !! More !! More ! Christmas !! God Bless You !!
Get hold of a power pack with two outlets - one for electrically heated gloves, the other to keep your phone alive. Keep the power pack in a blouse pocket and run the wire along your arm keep it in place with a bracelet or watch strap and you will be set for more outdoors. What are the popular pastimes in northern Russia in the evenings, are there dance classes, night classes etc?
such history., a very beautiful country..
Thank you for posting this kinds of valuable post.
Svetlana, that was well said about no politics... I agree...
Hey Svetlana! That's my wife's name haha. She hates winter too but now lives in Florida with me. If you hate winter you should come here to Florida. There are many Russians living here in Boca Raton, in fact we have a Russian market and they have many Russian restaurants. Great video! Stay warm and spasibo!
Thats crazy Barefoot..I live in Norway and just 2-3 dayes ago I looked at real estate at internett in Boca Raton area. I love US and follow the news at fox and newsmax every day.
@@dragonfly3714 Wow that's so funny Dragonfly, what a coincidence! Norway is a nice country but I know you will love Boca, also Hollywood (Florida not California) is really cool, and Sunny Isles down in Miami, many Russians live there and some good Russian restaurants. Hope to see you down here! Have a Happy New Year from sunny Florida.
You are a very good Ambassador to your country and Russia should be proud of such a cultured and beautiful representative ! Your videos promote a warm and loving picture of everyday people much like us enjoying a breathtakingly beautiful Country! ❤️
I've learned more about Russia since I started watching your videos, than I have in 20 years. It is so very clean and beautiful. You really know how to promote the culture and beauty of my your country. Please continue your videos . They are really enjoyed here in my Sanford, Florida, USA.
You are absolutely right that’s why I’m living in Florida USA
Beautiful building and parks 👍 👌 😊
Don’t forget to bring mini portable charger for your phone next time
❤️
Beautiful in winter there . But better to be inside and look out the window 😃
Svetlana, no! thank you for sharing your beautiful city with us. Merry Christmas?
Such a beautiful young lady in a beautiful place, great video
We are do much alike regarding winter. Although I will say that St. Petersburg is stunning no matter the season. Have a wonderful week, my beautiful friend.♥️
Question: Which city or location in Russia would you recommend for a first time visitor?
privet! ty ochen' krasivaja, kak i nekotoryje kadry Pitera!!! winter-slishkom chasto zvuchialo...
Yes, winter beutiful and you frends. 😊😊😊
Svetlana Your English is perfect it looks beautiful in St Petersburg I would love too see it in the Summer .
Where is ski resort. The construction of old buildings amazing. Who built Winter Palace.
You just reminded me to check on someone Thank You 🥰
Cheers from south west Florida... go out on my yacht every weekend here. Almost always beach weather... cheers :)))
A wonderful walk by St. Petersburg. Thank you.
Where in Siberia did you grow up? For myself after growing up in Germany but now living in California I like winter again, and even more so the rain. We don't have rain here between April and October, and let alone any snow. You need to go to Yosemite or that area if you want to see snow.
There’s something about you, Svetlana. You’re a charming young lady. Your mom, dad, sister and whole family look very proud of you.
I have always felt I have Russian blood via my Swedish and Polish/Hungarian ancestors. Recently we discovered a Russian Jewish line. I am Christian. I always knew that I was part of that country and it’s/your people.
Secondly, one of my favorite history stories is that of Peter the Great and his amazing accomplishments.
Two questions.
One, you probably have spoke about previously, are Americans able to retire near there? I want to feel life there.
Two, is St. Petersburg loved and appreciated by the average Russian citizen?
I think Peter was an incredible leader.
I am always waiting for your next video. Great job, 👧 girl!!
Jack
About one snow per year is be enough for me too. Thanks for sharing the views of that amazing city. Are you planning on living long term in St. Petersburg ?
Hi Svetlana, you can be glad to have a real winter. Here in Germany it is not 3 months of snow - but 3 month of rain and stormy wind - not better believe me! I have been 3 times to Skt. Petersburg and my question is .: Why is this city at least 3 times more expensive than Moscow??? In restaurants for lunch f. ex. you get a business lunch for a normal price but the bottle of beer is about 8 Euro!!! I never spend so much money in restaurants like in Saint Petersburg!
I found your channel by accident and like your content so far. I'm not a fan of winter either. I would love to visit St Petersburg but not during the winter time. My question: How long you started doing vloging and what motivates you to do it. What do you do for a living? Would you be willing to do a live stream on RUclips as you show us your country so we can interact with you and ask you question lived? Have a good one Svetlana. Looking forward to your next vlog post.
Wow wow wow wow wow awesome superb awesome video maam as usual really nice 👍
My question is you were working for a good airline it seems like you had a great job with benefits why would you leave it?
Svetlana, I love the way you put your videos across ….a suggestion …could you do a video on coffee shops and what your favourite way of drinking coffee….💕🇬🇷
I think you would love living in Florida
Wow great snow
Here in Northern Michigan, USA, we had two snowstorms in three days...your guys plow the snow the same way our guys do. I saw a lot of those snow plows this past week. Well, we won't have to dream of a white Christmas anyway. MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR 2022 !
Hi Svetlana, I'm a French guy and I started to watch your videos by chance and I continu to watch them when I have free time because I like Russia a lot and you make very nice viedos. I have no questions for you, but you are a nice girl and I think a very kind person. i wish you a merry Xmas and keep it up my friend bye.
I saw where you rejected a little black dress as you said, "Too short".
I love a woman who has self respect and I loved your comment regarding the dress. And you're right. It was too short. You have alot of of class.
Ok Miss Svetlana what is your last name ?
You don’t have to answer that. I have Great Grandparents-on my father’s side of family from the St. Petersburg area. They migrated west around 1890 to the United States. I do very much enjoy all of your videos and gorgeous locations. Thank You 😊
I will take spring ...summer ....Fall...anytime...Winter sucks..I will never complain about winter again after hearing how long your winter is. 9 mos....That sucks...Mine is 4 mos..and that is about 3 mos to long...hear in the U.S. I live in St.Louis Missouri it becomes over cast and cold and stays that way for weeks on end.I would go nuts with 9 mos of winter....Top down on my jeep... cold beer...BBQ..now that is cool......T shirt flip flops and shorts....The only way to go....
Hi Svetlana, I personally love snow and winter❄️. I can appreciate why you don’t like winter if you lived in Siberia, 9 months winter a year is a bit much. St. Petersberg is a beautiful city, thank you for sharing with us. The background classical music is beautiful! Thank you 🙏🏼
Will you ever come back to the U.S. to travel to different states? You are super cute in the hat with snow on it. Merry Christmas. Stay safe jay hawk 🌲❄️
In a previous video you said you had gone to school in the USA. Is that right? If so, where did you go, how did you get to study abroad, and what were your experiences?
University of Kansas. I believe Svetlana was on the swim team. Her mom wears the tee shirt/sweatshirt in one of the videos by the river.
Merry Christmas Svetlana!!❤️❤️❤️🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺
I love the winter, because I enjoy skiing! If you hate winter, you must come and visit the islands of Thailand……
Vous représentez le charme Slave dans toute sa splendeur...! ! ! ! Bonjour de France...
Looks good to see History. The videos are nice to see. Thanks
Nice. Thanks for the vid
If you don't like winter you should move to Hawaii or Florida of the United States. You could also move to Virginia Beach because it has winter, spring, summer and fall. Summer is my personal favorite. I agree with you as well about hating winter.
I'm the opposite. I hate summer. Where I live, the summers can be hot and oppressive. Very humid. Sun can be too bright during the day. Plus, it can rain for weeks at a time and very heavy rain at that!! And/or we end up getting cyclones. Everything goes moldy. When you sleep at night, you sweat so much that it feels like you've been for a swim when you get up in the morning.
And, with the changing climate as it is, it's getting worse. Plus, I have a condition which doesn't react too well to summer. I ache a lot more during summers and much prefer the cooler weather of autumn and winter. Actually, winter where I live isn't too bad, but it's more like your own summer or a southern European summer than a real winter.
Anyway, enough about me, here's my question. Since it snows so much in Russia, and it looks like you get a good covering of snow (and maybe ice at times) have you ever used skis or ice skates to get around the place :) Looks like you could have some fun in St Petersburg on a pair of skis!!!! :) :P
That snow is normal during that time of the year. -3C is not soo cold. Wait another 10-15 years and this will be a thing of the past. Will gonna see snow just in the pictures. Rember about your parents or grandparent told you about -20 -30C in December during winters? -3C now, is just a walk in the park. Why do I say this? We used to have winters like in St Petersburg, during December. Now is just cloudy, grey, and raining all day. Sincerely, I prefer snow
