Exploring the Estonian Russia border life on the Edge of the European Union. Where you can really feel that things are different and the culture is shifting. Along the way we talk to people and I lament that the journey doesn't go further east which is understandable all things considered. Time for the great turn around, if we can find a place to stay that is in booked out Estonia.

Interesting to see how other europeans see Estonia when visiting it. Also, this damn tank in Narva, its not there anymore! :) :)
Current Narva is not "old skool Estonia", Narva used to be a beautiful Baroque city until it was completely flattened by the ruskies in WWII. Only part of the castle was restored later. The original population either fled or was killed. Its a bloody shame.
Yeah WWII and historic centers didn't really go well together. Looked up some pictures, looked like a nice Baltic city back then, shame indeed.

The original inhabitants were not allowed by The Soviets to return, because their aim was to change the ethnic composition.
Mr. Pedro, it is great that you have such an opinion about how nice people of russia are. And that they all seemingly have nothing in common with their politicians.
I have been to that country many times. But right now there's hundreds of thousands those nice people on my land with weapons killing my people and many more in russia supporting them, launching ballistic missiles from far ends of their country continuosly and enjoying what they are doing. I also got close relatives in st. Petersburg who tell me that it's a really good thing they do killing us Ukrainians. And those are people (I'm not sure they are human beings) with a university degree.
You can visit Ukraine instead of rusia and see what those nice people have already done. Hundreds of cities and villages are destroyed completely because of bombs and rockets. I agree, it is much easier not to think about negative things. Just see only good and have fan. Unfortunately we can't. It's tragedy and struggling each and every moment in my country. But we win.
i don't know hoy you didn´t pass 100k subs by this time, this channel is awesome
The t-34 thank you visited has been removed last month or 2 months ago :)
No way, saw it just in time then
Actually the Narva tank was removed on 15th august. It went to a war museum.
@@iPedroMota Long story short: Because of what's going on between Russia and Ukraine (now Russia and Europe basically), Estonia decided to take this tank down and put it away in history museum. Narva locals were absolutely furious (Russian minded locals). They were guarding it day and night but eventually they couldnt stop it from happening. Ever since it was gone, these people started to lay flowers and candles and now this pedestal is fully coveres with those.
AND what's more interesting is that Russia found out that Estonia took their tank away so they decided to put the same tank (replica) on their own side of the river as a payback.
cheers from Tallinn - few months later u visited the Tank, goverment came and took the friking thing in 24h- It was a massive local news material like 2 months ago. Local "Russians" (Estonian citizens with grey passport) where not so pleased about it. Long story short - after the war started, goverment have removed/ will remove hundreds of soviet monuments. The whole thing is the biggest problem in Estonian society - the massive gap between Estonians and local Russian speaking citizens who most of them refuse to even start learning Estonian language. There is too much pain in the peoples blood since the second world war. Me personally Im not on either side - no time for hate, in fact Im learning russian language, so I could start employing Ukranians as a kitchen installers - extremely motivated skilled workers. I do not feel bad they took the Tank away - in long term perspective, it should make the proccess of integrating two very different cultures together abit faster. But it will take time, like another generation needs to grow up from now atleast.
Not being rude but you answered your own question regards Estonia Language and Russian. I am British and in my business in the Maritime Exploration sector English and Russian are valuable languages for business. 20 countries speak Russian including Ukraine as you say. Estonia only has a tiny population and thus Estonia is similar to Welsh (in the UK). As you say from a business perspective it is far more financially beneficial to learn English if you are a Russian speaking family if you are part of the European Union. As you see the Dutch guys speak English and can communicate with most people here in this video. So having spent a lot of time in Estonia I found far more people can speak Russian or English. While it's ok to have a national language etc. Realistically Estonian nationalists need to calm down on this "ooh they do not speak our minority EU language" it's the same in Wales....but the Welsh are less aggressive when it comes to Welsh speaking English. Pragmatically it's better for all Estonians to think less emotionally and more with a bit of common sense.
Greatings from Sverige (Sweden). Love the history part in our clip 👍
So close but yet so far away!
A shame you couldn’t continue east on this journey. I couldn’t agree more with your words: it’s the people that make a country not the politicians
Yeh...people indeed, 85%-90% of Russians are fully in favor of war against Ukraine...people indeed... You westerners still don't understand who it is. Putin and his associates do not kill or rape in Ukraine, it is done by Russian people, Russians... It is in their nature to kill and destroy, their envy of others and the opinion that they are a great nation, the chosen ones, etc.
Awwww, Pedro! I've been missing your video's. Good to have you back. -2°C in Velserbroek...brrrrrr. Long live heated grips! De groeten uit NL
We're havin a bit of a cold dipje, all the layers! Cheers, groeten
Wow that was a great conversation with a family of 3 generations! Inviable!...that's what I love about going to places and talking to the locals and getting to know what's real, I mean what the people that matter feel and say (not the media and politicians)
Haha started to think you will have to sleep in a car park under a table. Thanks for the video. Ride safe.
Liking the numbers. Waiting for the 100K.
Cute kid. 7:10
So many leaving Russia, no room in the Inn.
Good vid, ever changing world and history repeats itself. Lot of things closed to a person with a camera seems. Safe travels.
Couldn’t you get a Russian visa so you could transit to Finland?
Jõhvi - J not zch put pronunance it mote Y like Yoguslavia and Õ is not O . I am estonian.
Actually while visiting Estonia you can also visit Russia - there is a road that goes through Russia but it is kind of Estonia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saatse_Boot
I use stores for fitting, otherwise a large mailbox is probably okay. Box malls becoming box logistics in US. Sometimes maybe better to re-purpose tank.
Pedro, I loved the way you slipped into a Russian accent when speaking English to a Russian. I’m afraid I do the same when abroad.
I understand "Udo Meyer",a quite common german name.Probably one of his ancestors .Good luck to you,Pedro☘️
Thanks always enjoyed / keep up the safe travels looking forward to the next stage home
Peipus is not an artificial lake. It is fully natural. -- We live in the German cultural room, and j is pronounced like in German, Polish, Sovakian, Swedish, Dutch, etc, and not like in the French cultural room like in English.
Very cool. I'm a recent subscriber and was so happy to see your notification pop up today.
Why don't you guys go to Finland from there?
ahahaha you are so lucky bro !!! 3 times you get lucky about police penalty for your drive and parking - so its around 1000 euro in estonia ))))))
Looking forward to watching this after work👌. Hope you're doing well in this cold weather, even in Ireland it is -5 this morning 😬
You too mate. Yeah had a proper minus something ride in the evening the other day with all the layers on again. Takes ages to hop on a motorcycle in winter.
@@iPedroMota Thanks! Yeah it's definitely tough going on the bike in this weather I hope it doesn't last too long fingers crossed 🤞. I have my bike in the shed for the moment but hoping to take it out around Christmas 🎄
Did you end up getting overcharged for the room you found because it was last minute??
Really interesting, informative and entertaining and I also enjoy the interactions, brief though they are, between the two of you.
😆 no rooms available...Pedro's getting back to normal✌
There are parts of the world now where Booking actually accurately represents the available rooms in a country. Less chance of finding that 'lucky find' tucked away in an alley somewhere to spend the night. Pretty mad.
@@iPedroMota merry christmess;;;
Keeping it real, you two rock! 5+ languages in a travel video like it's nothing!
Good points about the invasions and one side "getting away with it".
Pedro greetings from Croatia. Your video is so
Interesting. Ride safe!
Je kunt een stukje (1km) vanuit Estland door Rusland rijden zonder visa of gedoe heb je dat ook gedaan?
Will you ever recover Alp? There is a lot of love, stories and money put on her?
👌🏼 mais um vídeo 🔝
Continuação de boa viagem 💪🏼✌🏼
Just like Russia. Drinking starts early
05:14 correct that time Narva - Jõesuu . same pronunace like Jõhvi .
Agent 00-Mota checks the Border! 💪 Russia made a lucky escape.
…today. 😎
Man, they really didn't waste time on those T-34s cleaning up the castings, did they? 😋 Bit rough around the edges, the bugger!
20:30 I think that is where Ben @baldandbankrupt made his last Russian video from before being kicked out. ruclips.net/video/qyB1l-89KEk/видео.html
what is joevy?
norway isnt eu
I had a good friend and colleague from Estonia. His home was a farm near Narva. He was able to go back after 1992 and see his old home.
what is pimm?
Your from
You had a famous battle in Narva betweeen us from Sweden and the ones from Russia, 1581. Sweden had a agrement with Poland during that time. But then you had the big battle 1700. Victory for Sweden that time. A lot of russian soldiers died during that battle.
Thank u for taking us along on your journeys my friend. Cheers!!!💙💛
Yeah, centralized and homogenized capitalism (whether state or private) make for fewer choices. As to empires, "plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose", n'est-ce pas?
Every country wants the most rich or developed country even though they are friends with each other
it would be nice to see you do russia :(
Bałtyk jest piękny!
mais um top......
What a xxxxxxx nightmare ::::)))))))
Going further east is blocked these days. So what are your plans? Nice interaction with locals, thumbs up. Günter, Nürnberg/Germany
Noraly has left Alaska and started learning a less than reliable Beta 500 for a rally in the USA, and you guys are pushing the far eastern European envelope on the Russian border - all in one day. I know which one I enjoyed the most. Your history lessons and interactions with an eclectic mix of locals, in multiple languages is always mind and experience expanding. Maybe things will change when Putin slaps Zelensky into his prison cell. 👀🧐🙈😜
Ride safe you two and keep warm.
Peace
what a wonderfull journey in 2022
Maybe go visit the building in Odessa where people were burnt to death by the Ukrainian Azov Nazi's. Or maybe Crimea and talk to the people about why they are happier under the Russian support system. They now live in peace and are no longer starved to death by the Ukrainian corrupt government.
Go eat plutonium.
Verified facts are not your strength, I see. Good luck living in The Land of Wishful Thinking.
LOL, keep up with the regurgitation of Russian propaganda. Russian imperialism is a cancer and needs to be stopped
Who cares?
excelente, abraço (segue o meu ;-)
