such a great comment! a great rolemodel
amen!
@@trinupose5422 hi dear
Hi
Agreeed
I don't know if people understand how incredibly deep and intimate this whole video was. Thank you Valeria for showing us such raw content. It's so beautiful to see your roots and its such an important part of understanding who you are.
@Hysteria New York weird flex but okay lol. I mean it has 260 likes so I'm pretty sure someone cares😂
So important, she didn't even care to spell a single designation right.
@Thor Odinson guess what, MOST PEOPLE DO CARE
discard
when her grandfather said that he looks at her photos, this reeeally makes me cry 🥺
I love how your mom said " I'm doing this for You" thats very beautiful
You and your mother have the most beautiful story. I'm in tears.

DArtagnan010 ahaha all Russian do , so?

Valeria, I have been waiting for the update on your biological father since your last blog you did. I feel so emotional right now. Your mom has an enormous heart. Your dad cheated on her and never called to see you two, but she is still so humble and kind. I feel like your personality resembles the character of your mom. You deserve the best of the best. ❤
you said it
P.s. I was thinking Vlog* not blog
❤️❤️❤️
Definitely! I think she knows that Valeria matters more than the past.
@@yckieh568 That past gave her Valeria.
I'm Russian and I finally found a good Russian youtuber
You're russian? Why was that important?
Are you from russian or u have russian ancestry
Lil Random why does it matter to you? Leave her alone. My boyfriend is polish and appreciates when he finds a good Polish RUclipsr with content that he likes... maybe the same for her.
@@shawnipaigeadair5399 because when someone make sure people know they russian and finally finding a good russian youtuber. It just sounds dumb because я из россии и там много русских ютуберов лучше ее (if he can understand that well then he will know why I doubt)
Lil Random you can’t say who is better and who is worse, people have different taste in what they like to watch. Even if it is so she might never came across of them
My mother has been always a very confused and confusing person with some dose of narcissism, lot of mental traumas and even though she raised me with values, her negative way of seeing all things, affected me so deeply until today. You are very lucky that your mom is such a balanced person and respects your boundaries. The way she talks to you at the end of the video makes me wanna cry, because I believe that is the healthy way of a parent to talk to his child. She respects your personality and doesn't have any "demand" to reflect her own needs throughout you. Just beautiful.
I've had my run-in with the case of delusional narcissist "mother" syndrome myself, sorry you have to suffer with it as well. Just know your not the only one out there who struggles with this crap, things will work out in the end :P
@@zaraht9161 It's been long time I've cut connection with her and believe it or not I often feel even guilty but deeply inside me I know that's the best. I tried many times to fix the situation but I ended up with my own mental probl3ms because of that and I decided that I need to take some care of myself even if it sounds selfish. Thank you and good luck to you too!
@@simplyme8593 If you want you can follow me on Instagram and we can talk further there :): pepper101409
Her mother is rude and degrading. She brings her down right in the beginning and makes this girl cringe.
I wanted to feel sorry for you but then I realized I was reading something I could’ve written myself. My mom’s the same. She thinks ‘differently’. She picks one of us (her 3 kids) to be a favorite for the month then cusses and threatens and just breaks our hearts with words the other two. Recently, we noticed she wasn’t talking to any of us. The three of us decided then that in the longest time, we’ve never felt this happy and healthy. We’re keeping things this way now on. Cutting ties with our own mother who always reminded us that we will never fit her standards and that we will never be as good as her. She’s been poison to us for as long as we could remember.
how can someone look that gorgeous while crying ? I literally look like a scary gargoyle when Im crying...
I look like a tomato. Swollen and red😂
yonasco14 me too 😂😂
I cant cry
aahahhaaahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa same
SAME 😂😭
This video is one of the most real videos.
i agree, this is the most real thing
Exactly.....🌸
You’re a strong daughter of a extremely strong mother... loved each and every second of this video ❤️
♥️🙏🏻♥️🙏🏻♥️
@@ValeriaLipovetsky honestly Valeria I think that you don t know what is a privacity when you got a youtuber.... You are enough rich so in my opinion you don t have to sell all on youtube. I wish you good luck in your life.
@@olagerta8199 there is a difference between selling, and wanting to share something!
@@olagerta8199 she is brave and stong enought and have strong mentality to have shared it on youtube. If she wanted to she can......you dont need to worry about her.
@@olagerta8199 some people don’t give a fuck and do whatever 🤷🏻♀️
You're mother is extremely wise woman. She is so strong, I wish I will be like her someday
Me too
I'm beyond proud of you Valeria! I am so happy and thankful that you are willing to share this
i love your mom Valeria and i hated seeing you cry...this whole video had me bawling my eyes out..it was so amazing and heartfelt and pure and lovely...God Bless⚘
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR MOM after this vlog! She's so freaking STRONG,AUTHENTIC, WISE but most importantly LOVING and FORGIVING! She's the REAL DEAL!!!
"no matter what happens in life, we have to always be in contact with out parents". Your mother is a strong woman and an inspiration.
Your mom is the best person ever so full of life !!Like mother like daughter i guess😂 !
#Russian
Omg ... you make me cried so much in this video. First of all.. your mom.. omg what what a legend.. the grace she had when she saw your biological dad and his family.. such a lady.. Second.. so happy you were able to meet you bio dad and be so open about it... life is about that... little moments that you can make big memories of... past is past. . and last when you visited your grandparents at the cemetery made me think about my parents so much.. I miss them dearly... every day.. I am so happy for you and I wish you and you beautiful mom the best in life.
Valeria, I love every single emotion show and not in this video. I am from Azerbaijan and speak Russian so I understand very well the culture. Through this video I feel so many emotions...
Omg the two most amazing RUclipsrs on the planet in here. Love you lots Jamila🌸❤️
I grew up in Azerbaijan, so this video brings me back too. The painted trees, the playground, all of it brings back memories
@@mkgirl1995 what's your ethnic background?
@@mkgirl1995 u mentioned azerbaijan that's why i asked
@@ANGEL-ft2xh My father’s family is German and mother’s is American. I’m fully American but I grew up in Azerbaijan because my parents were Christian missionaries. So I was born in the US and I moved to Az as a baby with my parents and we moved back to the States in 2008 👍
Your mom should have her own RUclips channel. She has a lot to teach. Amazing human being.
I'm speechless..you're mom is extremely strong and inspiring,just like you💕💕thank you so much for sharing!
I admire you Valeria, you're strong willed and very brave. I cried with you when you spoke about your grandmother, and I think now I understand fully how lucky we all are (yourself included, as you've said, you were not feeling a void) to be able to feel loved and cared after, by whomever that may be, family, not family, distant relatives, who knows?
Thank you for being so raw and sincere in this vlog. I've been watching you for a year and a half now, and I can sincerely say that you have helped me become stronger, simply because you are strong yourself. What your mother said in your first vlog about your trip, how she knew that "Valeria" means strength, is true. Never doubt that, because I'm super happy that you've said yourself how proud you were after the cemetery.
Your children and husband are very lucky to have such a fierce and hardworking person in their lives, something your mother passed onto you in a beautiful way. Please tell her that she is an example, not only for everything that she did for you, but because of her wisdom also.
Love from France :)
It’s a bit strange to be commenting on a video made over 4 years ago, but I ended up watching this by accident. As a fellow Eastern European, I was just balling my eyes out… this is so emotional😭 Our mothers & grandmothers are absolute warriors. Many blessings & thank you so much for being vulnerable & publishing something this intimate… many blessings to you & your mother always 💖✨
👆🏻💯
"The lesson I learnt is to cherish and love our parents when they're still with us"
I cried my heart out on this line
Love you valeria ❤️
Seriously respect for your mother. She is a woman with a brave big heart. She knows when to love and when to stand up for herself. Please in future, share more of her wisdom to us. I feel so much love and inspiration listening to her. You have an amazing mother!
I'm so emotional watching this. What an amazing trip of a lifetime to take with your mother. She is such a strong force, you can just tell 💗
I was crying with Valeria ..crazy..it got under my skin :)
Your mom is such a strong woman. I'm so proud of women like that, who have the guts to move on and give everything to their children. God bless her, you and your family too ❤
“Thank you, Mama.” Loved that. You see how much mamas will do for their babies when they can.
My mom says don’t put makeup and your mom is like put some more 😂
Karina K123 russian moms always want us to look beautiful even if we are only taking garbage out😂😂😂
USA INSIDER you Can look beautiful without make up🤷🏽♀️ my opinion. It depends on your natural look huh
my mom is czech and when we go really out somewhere she would go like 'don't you wanna put something on to look more alive?' :D
I love you Russia enjoy this song ruclips.net/video/hzTg4zPBtDU/видео.html😊
@@RealityxFairytale Omg check, my Polish mum's the same!
I have been watching RUclips since 2009 but this is BY FAR the Greatest Inspirational Motivational Honest Raw video I have ever watched! Thank you so much for sharing your (very personal) story with us. I learned so much from your trip. Your mother is a delight a very strong woman, you must be so proud of her. And allthough you don't know me I want to say that I am really PROUD OF YOU! You are so COURAGEOUS and STRONG for confronting your past. You did this for you :) Probably the best gift you have ever given to yourself, I believe so. Keep on shining bright Valeria. You're a star
I love how most mothers the world over would say "don't put so much makeup on, you look sweeter without so much blush/bronzer/lipstick etc" and Slavic mothers will say "honey put more makeup on" :))))
very true LOL
Yes my Mum always tells me to put make-up on. Even just to go to the supermarket lol I'm also of Russian background.
Yout mom is so STRONG! God bless you Valeria!
❤️❤️❤️
Our stories are so common..instead of Russia it was Poland..instead with mother I was with a friend..instead of meeting my bio father still dreaming of doing it he is far in America..my grandmother helped me find her grave she talked to me..your video made me cry..I never had a father figure..you are so lucky you met him..
This video is a masterpiece. Billion thoughts passed through my mind. Thank you for uploading such a sincere vlog!
I had to especially sign-in to this account to comment but it's really amazing how similar Valeria and her father look, the light green/hazel-button eyes, the straight nose, the chin, the youthful features, the smile almost everything is identical. It explains why she is so beautiful, her dad is quite the handsome man, I must say. So glad that you finally met your dad Valeria.
Yes he makes beautiful children and her moms genes helped give that final push to make her so dang beautiful!!!
russian women are so beatiful..im italian and fresh canadian and irish on my maternal grandpa's side...but russian culture always mistified me with its beauty..ballet, figure skating is so lovely..italians are crazy omgg but i still love them
RandomIsMyLif3 not all of them tho .. I worked with some Russian girls that was disaster .. the way they were thinking and living .. you’d be shocked but damn Valeria is just so ... precious and gorgeous 💓💓🌹
Ciao anche io so non italiano
RandomIsMyLif3 can you cherish a culture without putting down another? Ballet was invented in Italy during the Renaissance. Learn your roots.
@@alcyonae I said I still love Italians--my families just crazy and I'm not that great (I was self-deprecating) I know a lot of beautiful girls in my family. I mean ballare "to dance" in Italian and "ballet" I always knew the origin (I adore ice dance!). The sport is universal now and I just enjoy Russian figure skating and dance. And all the amazing champions from Russia and all the diverse beauty there! I also find Ukrainian, Iranian, asian and kazhak girls to be so beautiful as well. I'm not picking an ultimate best, here lol
Sara J I believe that the most beautiful
woman are Polish and Russian !
I love it how you talk English, Russian and Hebrew at the same time😂❤
Nevi Gavrieli I didn't know she spoke Hebrew also... she is so talented in many ways!
annabelle7123 she grew up in Israel her whole life, and obviously she's talented in so many ways!❤
Nevi Gavrieli wait wait I just subscribed to her , why she speaks Hebrew ?
Maryam Asadi she grew up in Israel
Nevi Gavrieli oh yes thank you for letting me know, I've watched her other vlogs and I remember my Iranian Jewish Frds in Iran used to speak Jewish rather than Farsi
You are my absolute favorite youtuber after this. Other can have 5 times better equipment and luxurious travels and i don’t even know what to make their channels amazing, but this was.. So touching and raw and real, I really connected to you and cried with you and laughed with you & I feel like we’re friends. And to make someone feel like a friend just through a vlog, through a screen, even though we never talked in real life - I admire & respect you for that. And hope to reach the same level in my vlogs. ❤️
Also “bio dad on fire” caption - I laughed so much 😂😂
I did this 3years ago after leaving Russia and move to UK with my mum age 9. I went back once when I was 14. Life happened, I had 3 children and at 28 I decided to go back and meet my family and father. It was sooo emotional. But it’s the best thing I ever did. The following year I brought my children to meet their grandfather and their great grandparents. Now we speak most weeks, it’s not perfect but it’s better then nothing. We have great summers in Russia now. Well done it’s a bold mood 💕

Валерія, на вас давно підписана, та лиш щойно переглянула це відео. Плакала разом з вами, дуже чутливе відео у вас вийшло.
Ви чудова, і мама ваша вірно зробила, що дала можливість бути зовсім в інших умовах та розвиватись. Ви так добре розмовляєте не тільки англійською мовою🤩
Добра вам🕊️
This was by far the most powerful piece you shared with us. Chocked up so many times. Just bring back so many memories of my own from when we left Russia to come to Israel. Your mom is just amazing! And like she said: we all have a story to tell. The fact that you shared yours with the world so openly and sincerely, is not something any one of us who watch you can take for granted. It was so intimate and sacred and you let us all in. Thank you for letting us be a part of something so yours. You’re an amazing soul, and like the one person on RUclips I can sit and watch for 36 minutes straight completely captivated by your story and the way you chose to tell it.
Спасибо тебе, Лера! ❤️
I know it's strange that they're acting "normal". Maybe you expected crying or anger or an emotion where you or everyone experiences catharsis but sometimes real life is not like in the movies. Most humans don't know how to deal with overwhelming stress and emotions so they just smooth it over with "normalcy".
TalkingCheeseBurgerr that's meeeee
I also think that pretending that everything is fine, is a big part of russian culture. Most of us just dont really express them and those who do are often times considered to be weak person.
I act like this also.
Could u pls explain your comment a little bit... R u saying dat we confuse sad situations and think dat its normal?
@@rimzhimverma2867 no. Russians put up a front to people that they feel normal, while on the inside feeling strong emotions. we dont share our emotions, only with people close to us.
Your story is amazing , your tears and your mom's loyalty to her parents are so impressive, both of you deserve respect and appreciation Valeria
You are so kind, thank you ❤️
@@ValeriaLipovetsky
You are welcome my dear
I'm from Seoul and I don't even knkw how I got to this video at 2 40 in the morning but I like your mom already she is so strong and caring. Thanks for sharing this part of your life on the internet for someone like me to watch and feel really touched
This made me cry. Probably because there is so much history going on, or maybe i had similar situation with my family too? Just seeing all of the history... my mother is kurdish and we went to see the village they used to live, this video reminded me that somehow... thank you for sharing this amazing video about you, your family and your roots. I really appreciate your videos, they are so worth to watch. Love you sooo much 🌸🌸 /sorry for my bad English
Berfin Deniz never apologize about your english it is your second language after all. Sending love from one kurdish girl to another💐
Dad looking diwn...shame lol!!!
Never saw on yt such a deep video. You made me cry. Partly because seeing how strong your good values are made me feel sad for how many people are lacking of them and don't even know what beauty they're being missing. And secondly because you riminded me of my adorable grandfather who had a strong impact to me and I'll be loving him for the rest of my life. Grandparents are the sweetest thing we might have. Thank you valeria. You and your mum are unique human beings.
I am a Russian girl born in ‘94 in Moscow. I remember growing up and hearing news about the war in Chechnya, about the attacks on Stavropol towns and such, and always being terrified of them. I came to Kavkaz for the first time ever in my life in 2018 via the same very airport in Minvody to ski on Elbrus. This region is magical. Being there soothes your mind, nurtures your soul. The nature, the people, the history. This small part of your story resonates so much with me. I absolutely admire your mother. She reminds me so much of my friends’s moms, self-made strong independent women, very elegant and beautiful, very talented, very tender yet so tough who managed to make it through the 90s and even come out of the situation with some economic benefits (like buying a large apartment in Moscow all by themselves). She is the epitome of what it means to be Russian (even though I perfectly understand that her background is so much more than just Russian). I aspire to become someone as strong and as wise as I get older. I wish your family all the best, peace and prosperity, and lots of happiest years to come!
I know this is a really old video.. but I just found it. I have not seen my father since I was 3, and it brings me so much pain to think that I was unwanted by my own father... after watching this it makes me feel at peace, and makes me appreciate the sacrifice and struggle my mom went through to give us a good life. Thanks xo.
I cried like a baby haha, a mother's strength and love is so strong
usually videos like these are either too cringy or over dramatic for me to watch but this one is nice and genuine i watched the whole thing
also i admire your relationship with ur mother and how expressive u guys are
Very nice story. Promise I cried lol! Valeria you are very kind and good daughter to your parents, that's why your life now is very blessed. Hugs and kisses to you and to your mom as well.
your moment with your grandma touched my soul, I love my grandma so much, she's so important to me and I can't begin to imagine how much pain you must've felt. I loved this, your family is amazing, I loved the little background stories from their younger days.
Also, you're so pretty xx
I was about to compliment her on her hair, then I realised she had the prettiest eyes, and the perfect nose, and the most clear skin, and perfect teeth..... she is literally perfect 😍😍😍
Julia Taleb actually under the average.. But a seemingly nice
Now i see how similar Polish and Russian cultures are. The way of being, behaving, even we have songs to sing at table with same melody. I cried when your moj started singing. Love ya, thank you, greetings from Poland.
Aleksandra Peterwas I guess it has a lot to do with the way you’ve been raised. I’m polish too but personally i don’t see any similarities.
@@zj6066 I'm Polish too, and I believe it depends in which part of Poland you were raised. The Easter parts of Poland and their folklore are more similar to Russian, but the Western parts (where I come from) are not that similar, though I still see some similarities.
The languages are super similar as well!!
I think it has to do a lot aswell if not raised in a big city, with the slavik culture, my girlfriend is from czech republic the eastern side and see a lot of similarities aswell with polish people russian and so does the language. Love slavik people, their food language and way of looking at live and last but nor least their hospitality. Greetingz from a dutch guy haha
100%
I cried so hard during this vlog. So many amazing amazing stories and connections came to be in this vlog. Thank you for showing this to us. 😭💕
Your mother is pretty awesome. The story of how she washed dishes in the day and sang at night to survive and take of you by herself is empowering. I loved this vlog! Very touching.
I can’t find words to describe how touched and moved I am by this story. Your mother is really a hero. ❤️
Oh brave! Wow I have not seen my bio dad since I was 8.. his choice, his loss.. :/
Xx
fashion chalet definitely his loss honey ^^
Same here, but I was 6 or 7 .. honestly I don't care about him anymore
me too but since i was 7.. I'm almost 22 now.
Their loss. I would avoid them for my whole life. A lot come back if they see you make it big 😒
fashion chalet you go girl
Valeria, I can’t stay mute, this vlog is LIFE, your wonderful mother is a true star on so many levels, you are an amazing daughter and just a shining brightly lady! I am Russian and from Russia and I was happy to tear to watch this vlog and I can TOTALLY understand the emotions you had while you were back there 🙏🏼💛
I come back to watch this every now and then, Valeria
This truly was the best video I’ve seen on RUclips! The emotion was so strong and real, I cried when you cried. Valeria you and your mom are both amazing! She is such a sophisticated and elegant woman and you are truly a fairy like your bio dad said. I am out of words. Lots of love from Bulgaria 🇧🇬 ❤️
Your mother is absolutely amazing. Makes me feel so lucky that I still have and live with both my mother and babcia who emigrated here to Canada from Poland. Immigrant stories like this are so important, you see the backbones of every woman who suffers unimaginable circumstances... to see you being able to share this respect with your mother is just beautiful. It makes me want to brush up on my Polish and have more conversations with my grandmother. The strength of these women, women like your mother, is what makes the world turn.
Thank you for sharing this personal journey. This reminds me of my mom and the first time she took us kids to Yugoslavia (way back) and seeing her roots and my grandparents 😢. My mom too raised us without my father, a different story but feels the similar. Thank god for strong mothers and women ❤
I can relate sooo much Valeria!! I was born in Kazakhstan and moved to Germany in 1993. I went back there in 2017 with my dad, we visited our old house and my grandparents graves. I was such an emotional and healing experience! It felt very nice to reconnect to this place I was born at and had no connection to for the 24 years before. Thank you for sharing this and reminding me of my own experience :)
Woooooooow this video was really impressive!
It was like a beautiful movie!
That dance in 19:30 , we also have that in Iran, we call it AZARI DANCE!!!!! I was so excited to see that in Kavkaz
fateme sadat Tabatabaei well said!
That dance belongs to all PEOPLE who live in KAVKAZ mountains (or in english CAUCASIAN mountains). That traditional dance belongs to Azeri, Armenians, Georgians, and russians regardless of religion. because it has to do with geography of Caucasian mountains or the Kavkaz people who live in kavkaz region (caucasian region).
I've seen similar Georgian dances - sooo beautiful!
fateme sadat Tabatabaei the outfits and dance really reminded me of Turkish and middle eastern tradition (even the decor of the building at 20:26), the Russian empire was so wide it encompassed many religions and languages
Amazing to see the similarities between all these cultures :)!
Picture her dad watching this and realizing what he missed out on. omfg the feels are upon us all
hi! Please support my channel by subscribing. I will subs back as well. thank you.
This is you speaking from your mind. If you were her dad you probably wouldn't even look at her videos on RUclips.
Prekarijus if I remember correctly, in the beggining of the video it said that HE cheated on her, so...
^ he did
and we only heard her side of the story, and not both. Anyone could just make up a claim. And it was oddly convenient how they find someone just 2yrs later to a rich western country
Omg ur half sister looks a lot like you wow 😮
I remember this was the first video of you I watched, and I literally thought you were like 19
25
V, appreciate your courage to put up something personal and important to you for us to view. I learn a lot from you. I think you are genuine, authentic and surely a fairy. I'm really grateful for the full video. I never want to miss a second of Valeria Lipovetsky. I love you and your mama story is an inspirational to all.
Much Love.
wait.. ARMY??!!
didi blabla Yes bae! hoseok oppa 's
omg army literally everywhere , love you fam

Я проплакала практически все видео, даже для меня, не являющейся частью вашей семьи, это было очень близко душе, очень эмоционально. Спасибо, что поделились очень важными мгновениями своей жизни, жизни всей вашей семьи. Ваша мама героическая женщина, крепкого ей здоровья! Будьте, пожалуйста, счастливы и никогда не забывайте историю своей семьи, свои корни! Спасибо!
I love your mother Valeria, you are so lucky to have her as your mother 💓 she's very strong, independent and inspiring. I feel so happy that you are able to travel with your mom and enjoy your trip. I have a 4 year old daughter, single mother and I'm so inspired by your mothers will and strength. so much and support for you Valeria and your beautiful family
You're mom is such a beautiful woman and soul. Watching and listening to such stories gives us hope and teaches us to love more and be better. Thank you for this.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I‘m tearing up! My mom always tells me storys about her childhood in bosnia and I get really emotional. She always tells me about her mother (she passed away when I was 6 months old) and I really feel her pain. I think is such a special feeling to see the places you used to grow up in or play when you were little.
Petra M Hello from Bosnia 👋🏻
I'm from Bosnia too. Even seeing how similar the little town and the apartments were and hearing their language made me emotional. I miss home so much.
Your mom is amazing. She’s so humble and soft spoken. I could listen to her telling stories all day (with subtitles though 😜)
ראיתי עכשיו לראשונה ולא הפסקתי לבכות. סיפור החיים שלנו די זהה, מדהים כמה התמודדויות ההורים שלנו עברו. כל הכבוד שעשיתן את הטיול הלא פשוט הזה.
Love that is old never rust! Thank you Valeria. I have a father the same as yours and I know deeply that I have always wonder... what if? Nonetheless like you I have a phenomenal and strong mother! Women are made of sterner stuff! She too took me away for a better life! God bless our mothers and we can be joyful and everlastingly positive than worry about missing fathers. I love the transparency of real emotions that pours out of you and mum! God bless you all and for all those out there that has a missing dad? Just remember that you are stronger for it! Use it as a bridge for empowerment and live on! Love you all! Alex B
I'm so grateful that you shared this with us, i'm happy and proud of you this isn't easy but you managed to do it. Love you val ✨💫💛😢
I agree ;)
Lama mohammed i
Lama mohammed اللي رباها هو يعتبر ابوها الحقيقي وبس ليس له حق بعد كل هذه السنين ان يرجعلها
exactly what i was thinking!
I cried so much, it's exactly like in Serbia. I miss it so much. Thanks for sharing this with us!
Как же истории постсоветских семей перекликаются. Спасибо что поделились своей историей. Очень трогательно и берет за живое, потому что многое что похоже на нашу жизнь. Мама вообще молодец и ты тоже. Удачи вам!
I stumbled upon your channel like a week ago and I’ve been binge watching your videos (so I don’t even know if you’ll see this lol) but you’re so wise and real and after seeing this video I see where you get it from. Your mom is amazing. The story of how she (a successful singer and entertainer) cleaned up the sewage just to be in the ER with you at 8 months old is so humbling. And when you said that she never let her ego get in the way, it just really opened my eyes. Amazing words of wisdom that I hope to live by. Thank you for sharing. You are both so truly beautiful.
Thank you for letting us in at this very private aspect of your life. It was very very touching! xx
I had the same reaction when I went back to Greece, even though I left for America when I was 3 I still remembered my grandparents village and house.
1982evanthia do u know greek? im from greece
i am watching this now, and oh my goodness, the amount of strength and bond that is shining from you and your mom is unbelievably inspiring
Плачу. Это видео такое настоящее, эмоциональное и трогательное! Где бы мы не были, нужно помнить свои корни.
This was so hard for me to watch, but so heartwarming as well. My gadma passed away four years ago and I couldn't go to her funeral cause don't live in my country and was devastated. A month ago I had the chance to travel there and went to her grave...i felt so sad, but so relieved at the same time, i found peace. For all this years i felt like anyone couldn't understand me... you made me realize that im not the only one who went through this. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing this difficult moments Valeria, for keeping it real and honest wiht us. You are amazing in every way possible. 💖
I don’t know who I got this Chanel. But I want thank you to sharing your journey with us and open up to your family.
WOW strong immigrant mothers never cease to amaze me, I'm myself an immigrant but I left at 17 alone, I can't even begin to imagine the fear and pressure you must feel having a little girl to take care of... your mom is a BOSS LADY ❤️
Your mum is a very strong woman! I come from a migrant parent as well and I just realise watching your video that they had so much courage to get out from their own home and start from scratch in another country to give their family a better life!
Ps. Your mother has to have her own RUclips channel it would be a hit!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Valeria, I am truly grateful that you decided to share this journey with us 💗 Thank you for reminding me how important it is to love those who are in our lives. Thank you
Your mom is a badass! A hero! And also a real russian mom in the beginning of the video :D
Kätlin Planken do I have any chance to get your number?
My mother is also russian and also left her country and moved to Germany. It is crazy to see all the similarities - from "Put in more makeup" to "we have to stick to our parents". And i also cry me eyes out when i remeber the passing of my russian grandmother. Having russian routes is a beautiful privelig - of being strong but also so deeply emotional with Hiding it mostly.
I have the feeling that russian mothers go very often over their limits for their kids and family. It is in their DNA.
Thank you for this reminder of my beautiful heritage and this very personal insight into your life. Emotions are beautiful and you are a beauty of showing them. All the best
It amazes me how your mom went through all of this on her own. Wow such an incredible woman ❤️
Thank you Valeria for sharing this trip with us.
Both you and your mama are so strong !!! I have so much respect for her moving to a different country with a child and building everything from scratch only to move and start all over again... a mothers strenght is the most powerful thing in the world, she's a true inspiration 💖
I’m deeply touched by you & your mom’s story, crying and laughing in between. She’s so elegant & wise. Cheers to both of you as always.
Wow this made me cry... I felt this so deeply. Thank you for taking us along
Thank you so much for posting this video, it’s so personal. Your videos are so interesting because of your culture and fascinating family history, and it’s beautiful how you incorporate that. I love how you don’t try to make your life look too ‘perfect’ although it seems like a wonderful life. I watch your videos because they are insightful and honest and you bring your bright personality to them all in a really effortless way. And this particular video is such a sensitive experience for you, and you bring us along on the journey without sensationalising anything for the sake of views, but simply to show life as it is, as it happens. And your mother is such a powerhouse! Women are amazing for all they endure and prevail and shine. Thank you for this, it was so heartfelt, a special one. I hope you’re well x
I felt like a I just watched a movie. I cried.
Thumbs up before even watching. Pretty sure EVERYONE LOVES VALERIA! Your mom is awesome. She reminds me of my mom.
What an inspiration your mother is, and it is apparent she instilled her values from life into you. Thank you for sharing this vulnerable journey with us. My heart pours out to you ladies and your family!
