University students never change. Great to see you so enthusiastic. Phones dying might be to do with continually searching for a signal as they get blocked by buildings and tunnels, it is just a little two way radio after all. Just keep checking your card account to make sure other people are not scamming it. Thanks for your impressions.
Amazing video Dasha!!!! It warms my heart to see the excitement and happiness inside of you. As I watched it I thought ahead 20 years when you'll be a successful young woman with a great life. You will look back and watch this video with a big smile on your face. We are thrilled to have you and all your international classmates here in the US. The future is bright because of you all. Best of luck this semester. “Let the world know why you are here, and do it with passion.” - Wayne Dyer We're looking forward to watching the journey!
Great video! You’re right about giving waiters our credit cards, seem strange. It is customary in USA for this and I’ve never been worried. We eat out at lots of restaurants and it’s like this all over the country. Paying with cash is a good alternative
Because in USA it is easy to dispute charges and have them reversed so who care if someone take your card and does whatever? It is not so in other country.
You have a glow about you, I think NY suits you well. I think it’s the smile. Would love a video about all the things that surprised you about NY & America, good and bad.
If you start missing a bit of home, come by Brighton Beach sometime, there are a lot of Russians, Ukrainians, some Georgians, Uzbekis and Azeri grocery stores and restaurants there. I go there every so often to stock up on kvas and most people can speak russian
It was a win win situation for you Dari... First of all, that smile upon your face is priceless. Second of all, your english pronunciation is improving a lot and the most important thing, you're going to achieve your goals if you work on that. Thanks for inspiring us to reach our goals, great video, poka poka! 🙌
The building with the gorgeous mural on the ceiling. I grew up in a small town with 2000 people that was the center of the local state government that has a smaller mural on the government building ceiling that could match it. Most local and state people don't realize this fantastic mural is there! The museum looks equal to or better than the Carnegie Museum of Art and Natural History in Pittsburgh, PA. It is one of the best museums in the USA. I am glad that you took the time to view the museum in NYC because it is the experience of a life time to view such a rare museum. The insect killed in your apartment looks like a roach. Is your apartment above a place to eat? Better buy some roach poison or powder! Much of my wife's and my furnature was picked up off the curb because it was left when someone moved. Other furnatures were bought at Goodwill, Salvation Army, or ReStore. ( used heavily discounted furniture whose profits go to help the poor, build housing for the poor, or help those who are physically or mentally handicapped) So, keep your eye open for abandoned furnature and these stores so that you can help the homeless people in NYC. Many of the three stores I mentioned will deliver your furnature for a fee, including carrying it up the stairs. Most of this furnature is not flat pack like IKEA Furnature, its real furnature sold for less money than IKEA furnature. Make sure the furnature will fit up your stairwell and through you apartment doors before buying it.
Thank you for sharing your big adventure! So heartwarming to see how happy you are now! Universities in the US really are so different in a good way - you are lucky to be there and you will make your way
Such great news. You found a place, you've started your classes, you visited many cool places. Watching you assemble the piece of IKEA furniture was hilarious. We've all been there.
And if you want to save money on clothes, NYC is a good place for thrift shopping. There's lots of thrift shops and second-hand clothes in East Village and Williamsburg. Goodwell, too. If you're trying to get plates, utensils, and other cookware cheap, I would go to secondhand and thrift stores since it's much cheaper than buying new. I got four plates, and a couple bowls for about $10
Wonderful video Dari! I was so worried about how you were going to acclimate to NY, but you're making it look easy! I'm so happy for you. And yes, you will definitely make it there!
Loved watching you enjoy all that NYC has to offer. Laughed when you and your friend pulled that piece of furniture up the stairs. A true NYC “Friends” moment!
I just came across this channel with your first NYC video, after watching I quickly subscribed. I'm so happy that you finally found an apartment despite all of your obstacles!!! I hope you enjoy New York!
Heeey Dari !! I'm sooo happy for you that you found an apartment that wasn't too crazy price wise. Finding an apartment in just 2 weeks is actually quite quick, especially in New York! Congratulations! 🥰 And how great to have had a week to get settled before work and school stared for you! Perfect! Welcome welcome welcome to the US! 😃 I am very much looking forward to hearing how your classes and professors have turned out, and how your studies are going! Your excitement about your future is contagious and so refreshing to witness! You have accomplished SOOO many difficult and amazing things so far on this journey! Sending you positivity, good fortune, continued success, and lots of hugs and smiles! Be well, my friend! xo 🤗😃✨
This is a really good update. Really cool to see your perspective as an international resident. The handing over of the credit card to pay for your check made me chuckle.
People use debit cards here. It works exactly like a check, your account is debited instantly but you do get protection if a product isn’t available or there is fraud, the transaction can be reversed like a credit card.
So happy you found an apartment and are finally settling down in your new hometown. Continue to persevere, you are way on your way to a very bright future.
Aweee….Dasha you’re *SO* happy in NYC!! Your dreams have really come true!! Congratulations on finding your place and good luck with school. I know you will do splendidly!! ❤️🗽❤️🙏🍻
There are so many comments I could make, but several other people already made most of them. One compliment: for the closing monologue at 24:00 the lighting, angle, color palette, and prop give the shot a friendly and personal atmosphere. Great work Dari ❤
What a great video, Dari. I'm so pleased you were able to find an apartment. It must be a weight off your mind. Glad to see you having some fun and making friends also. You deserve to enjoy yourself. All my best wishes to you for your studies!
22:38 in Serbia you even say your PIN code to the cashier 😂. And of course there are people in line behind you 😅. Well that how it works in small towns.
I watched you video again on my big TV. Wow, I love the view from that restaurant. And I can't wait for this upcoming New Year with you in NYC!! It is mind-blowing to imagine, aha!
I rented a small room in NY for 600 capitalist dollars 💵 a month. Cool you finally settled 🏠. I remember also slept few nights in some Russian immigrants apartment and there were bedbugs. I ran away from that place and came back to my first hostel on Brighton where the fat snoring guy didn’t let me sleep. (Now I also snore a lot though 😅) Then one of my phones was stolen there and some clothes 😅. Then finally I rented some room. But it’s nice that despite the 🪳 roaches and rats 🐀 also you can see the cute squirrels 🐿 from the window 🪟 which I only saw in New York from the big cities around the World. Why am I writing it all I don’t know. But just Dari with her video made me nostalgic. Ohh yeah and I remember the crazy line to some Starbucks mostly of the girls. I was a simple boy and didn’t know all those fashionable places. But I liked the cheap pizza 🍕 places and I gained 6 kg in 3 month in America. I was going to gym there as well and got muscles too. Protein cost there just 20 dollars for almost a kilogram. They use some weird measures in America. Like .lb or something. In Russia it costs much more if it’s imported. Maybe 2-3 times more.
Everything in USA has sugar in it, sadly. You have to look carefully to get the healthy options. I've been to Europe a few times and everything really does taste different. And better. Of course every country has junk food but we are one of the worst offenders of this, haha! Love following your journey, stay safe and welcome to USA!
A lot of restaurants stopped packing your food for you during COVID I think to prevent contamination by having someone else handle your food again after serving it
What a happy and fun video! We’re so glad to have you here and wish you all the best. Be sure to check out Central Park and Jones Beach on Long Island when you are able to. I have a feeling you found your new home.
About the phones: you are probably using the european version of the IPhone . That was built to run primarily on different network frequency ( being also over a year old and having 500 chargers also doesn’t help) Yes, the phones are different both in terms of network chips but also in terms of batteries and charging modules ( they are optimized for 110v not 220v like yours). When you will get a new one you will also notice the new ones ( from 14 on) in the us don’t have sim trays, so you can’t use them like in Dubai ( esim with your number from your country and a local sim with local number for deliveries and stuff). They are the same phone but tweaked for the region of primary use
Hooray! Hooray! 🎉 🥳 I am so glad that one source of stress and aggravation is now over with, Dari. I am currently jumping for joy. Trust me on that one. 😅 Wishing you the very best as you start your studies and look to better days ahead. One thing you might want to do while in NYC is head over to the B&H Photo Video store and pick up a couple small items that will help with your video productions. For one... a fuzzy wind muffler for your lav microphone. That will improve your outdoor sound recordings a great deal. You would absolutely LOVE exploring B&H as it is a massive tech store.
Your challenge accepted smile was priceless. I'm sure you're going to have a great time studying in NY. It's a great city, not without its problems, so be carefull, but at the same time it can be an awesome experience. Perhaps you will be able to see some other parts of the USA while you are here.
Congrats and Super happy for your successes! Thanks for sharing with us. Dari has the voice of an Angel! Dari, go do the Circle Tour. It's a boat tour around the Island of Manhattan. It is inexpensive, shows you lots of famous sites, and it gives you great perspective of Manhattan. You catch it at West 42nd at the Hudson River, Pier 83. You won't be sorry.
Love your content, my daughter lived in NYC so I know the challenges,...remember, keep your wits about you, NYC is a wonderful place but has a dark side.
Thank you for the tour! It's nice to see it and feel the excitement. Not all places have cockroaches - you are the lucky one. No, I'm only joking about you. You visited the places I love visiting in different countries. There are so much more to explore and I know you'll find them all. I don't know about trains and buses in New York but was very impressed with the punctuality of public transport in London, UK. Enjoy your stay and looking forward to your next vlog! Paka (tell me if I wrote it right?)
With the credit card thing, US banks are pretty good about cancelling purchases if you card is stolen, so Americans don't worry about waiters and such taking their card so much. Great vlog though! Glad you're having fun in NYC!
Congratulations on your new apartment. Also, don’t stand to close to the train tracks in the subway station because people have been pushed onto the tracks on purpose. Good luck on your studies.
So interesting to see your take on my home city! I watch other videos about yours and wish I could visit there! Oh and Paquito’s on 1st ave by 9st, best tacos in NYC
Good bread, any Italian Bakery. Another tip, even in summer, if you are going to be out after dark, bring a light jacket or windbreaker. It can get chilly quickly.
Excellent vlog. Seek and you will find. You have definitely found New York! 🇺🇸 You and your friends have seen so much already and there is loads more to see and explore. New York is an amazing place. It is full of music, theatre, architecture, history and art. I wish you success with your studies. I’m certain you will do well as you are intelligent, hard working, dedicated and use your initiative 🥳👍👏
Yaayyy! I don't want to tell you something you already know, (probably what you have forgotten about the 'iPhone I still need to learn), but on my little iPhone 7, the round button at the bottom, for opening up the 'phone, also controls the pages you open, in that if you press it twice quickly, all the pages you opened appear. If you swipe them up you close them, saving you battery power big time. I do this several times a day. Also, charge the 'phone at around 30%. Stop charging the 'phone at around 97%. You made NY seem really beautiful and a great place to visit. I only really visited the Empire State, and was whisked around a little bit of the city by a friendly taxi driver charging $100 for the day. Unfortunately he had to leave early. In any case I wanted to get out of NYC asap to move to Oregon.
Wow Dari look at you😃 I went to New Your about 20 years ago and I loved it…. The people are fantastic and a real it’s a multicultural/ multinational place, a real eye opener. I’m sure you’ll be fine and you will have a great time. Always look forward and don’t look back👍🇬🇧
Sidewalk furniture. We recently got rid of a bureau or as non-bostonians call it a dresser that I got back in 1995 from my current roommate's former landlord. I don't even know how many people used it over the years. It wasn't fancy it was just cheap, probably not even wood. But it held up. We put it out on the side of the street because we don't have any sidewalks down here, it's really strange. and no one took it! I will have to check with my roommate again to see what ever became of it. Usually you don't have to throw things away because people will just come and take them. And especially in college towns, in May, people just put things out on the street I mean the sidewalk. I heard someone say to go to rich neighborhoods and you will find even nicer sidewalk furniture. But I was almost shocked before you mentioned that it came from the sidewalk. I thought you had actually bought furniture. (Yes, we do buy mattresses. By the way, what was the name of the mattress you bought? The one I'm sleeping on I've had it for 22 years and I really think it might be time... (Stupid thing cost $1,300. Seems to me that buying mattresses is confusing. Like buying cars.)
You have already seen so much of the city in such a short time. When I was studying in NYC and living in Manhattan, I always found a trip to Central Park on a Sunday afternoon to be the best thing to do to relax from the fast pace of the city. And as a bonus, you get to see the incredible sky-line of Fifth Avenue, Central Park South and Central Park West.
Amazing video Dari l’m glad that you liked the view from the restaurant at the top stunning views and looks quite high up and you looked very happy. Similar views when l when up The Shard in London not as high as New York ones. I managed to take the picture of the view the toilet window and The Tower of London and Tower Bridge 800 feet up (243.84 metres).
She is definitely a city girl. But, I hope in between semesters she takes the opportunity to see other parts of the country. There’s so much more to see in the USA than just New York City.
@@DariStepAnytime, spasibo bolshoe (sorry, don’t have my Russian keyboard switched on right now)❤ Ps, who’s the stunning girl with the big eyes and the beautiful blue jacket? She’s lovely.
I notice you're smiling more and Natasha said Russian's don't smile. And this is New York (not a smiling place). I'm so happy that you are enjoying NYC and America!
There should not be much of a difference between American and international iPhones. The only difference would be that American iPhones have more 5G bands. You could try disabling Wi-Fi one your phone when you do not need it to save electricity. It is possible that the battery in your iPhone is wearing out. You could try opening the settings app, select Battery and then select Battery Health and charging. It will show you how much your battery capacity has deteriorated from the initial 100% battery. My iPhone was bought new 18 months ago and now only has a 91% maximum capacity. Apple recommend that you take your iPhone into an Apple store and pay $50 to replace the battery if it falls below 80%.
@@DariStep I know you are busy but if you want to see something really unusual in New York then seek out the 5th Avenue New York Apple store which is a cube of glass with the bulk of the store being underground. You could ask them why your phone seems slow. I would like to see a video of the trip. It is open 24/7.
Your videos are always os motivating. I've been in NYC studying for 5 years now, but it seems like you've had more interesting experiences than I've had. 😅 I would recommend you to visit the Russian Tea Room. It's a very visually impressive restaurant. You can get a discounts on Resuturant weak, which happens in NYC from time to time.
I lived in NYC my entire life, and it never ceased to amaze me. I love Manhattan. Go to Washington Square Park. walk down 8th St.(east) off of 6th Ave.
Tenacity and perseverance are great qualities, and i can tell you have them in "spades.," also a great asset for a business person. Congrats on finding the apt., very happy for you! Now the marathon will start, you go girl😊. And once in a while, stop to smell the roses.
Found in 2 weeks. Thats fast. If you can make here you can make it anywhere. New York, New York. Yes id love to have a tour of the apartment and cost. Best wishes in your classes.
University students never change. Great to see you so enthusiastic. Phones dying might be to do with continually searching for a signal as they get blocked by buildings and tunnels, it is just a little two way radio after all. Just keep checking your card account to make sure other people are not scamming it. Thanks for your impressions.
Amazing video Dasha!!!! It warms my heart to see the excitement and happiness inside of you. As I watched it I thought ahead 20 years when you'll be a successful young woman with a great life. You will look back and watch this video with a big smile on your face.
We are thrilled to have you and all your international classmates here in the US. The future is bright because of you all.
Best of luck this semester.

Thanks a lot for your support ☺️🥹
@DariStep Will you also film a clip on the USA women's tennis there, or tennis is not for you?
Dasha, I cant believe you are living the dream!! I'm so happy you love NYC ! You make the city super fun!!
I can’t believe it myself 😍😭
@@DariStep well, the city loves you because you are super positive and bring that with you everywhere!
Disabling your wifi will prolong your battery usage. Wifi sucks up lots of juice.
Dari, NYC needs to hire you as a "brand" ambassador!
😃😃😃

Because in USA it is easy to dispute charges and have them reversed so who care if someone take your card and does whatever? It is not so in other country.
So happy for you! Can't wait to share in your adventures!
You have a glow about you, I think NY suits you well. I think it’s the smile. Would love a video about all the things that surprised you about NY & America, good and bad.
Will do 😃
If you start missing a bit of home, come by Brighton Beach sometime, there are a lot of Russians, Ukrainians, some Georgians, Uzbekis and Azeri grocery stores and restaurants there. I go there every so often to stock up on kvas and most people can speak russian
Glad to hear you found an apt. You made your dream come true. Good Luck. Bless you.

Thank youuu! Will do!
Thank you for the tour! It's nice to see it and feel the excitement. Not all places have cockroaches - you are the lucky one. No, I'm only joking about you. You visited the places I love visiting in different countries. There are so much more to explore and I know you'll find them all. I don't know about trains and buses in New York but was very impressed with the punctuality of public transport in London, UK. Enjoy your stay and looking forward to your next vlog! Paka (tell me if I wrote it right?)
Glad you enjoyed it! It should be written “Poka” :))
With the credit card thing, US banks are pretty good about cancelling purchases if you card is stolen, so Americans don't worry about waiters and such taking their card so much.
Great vlog though! Glad you're having fun in NYC!
Congratulations on your new apartment. Also, don’t stand to close to the train tracks in the subway station because people have been pushed onto the tracks on purpose. Good luck on your studies.
Dari is finally living the dream! 😃
So interesting to see your take on my home city! I watch other videos about yours and wish I could visit there! Oh and Paquito’s on 1st ave by 9st, best tacos in NYC
Dari, your doing great. Enjoy your self. See you on the next vid.
You seem very happy here in the US than in Russia. ❤
Good bread, any Italian Bakery. Another tip, even in summer, if you are going to be out after dark, bring a light jacket or windbreaker. It can get chilly quickly.
Very happy for you! Looks like an absolute blast!😊
Dari keep your dreams big! You CAN make it! 🙂👍💪🤗
That's the plan!
Excellent vlog. Seek and you will find. You have definitely found New York! 🇺🇸
You and your friends have seen so much already and there is loads more to see and explore.
New York is an amazing place. It is full of music, theatre, architecture, history and art.
I wish you success with your studies. I’m certain you will do well as you are intelligent, hard working, dedicated and use your initiative 🥳👍👏
Thanks! 😃
Yaayyy! I don't want to tell you something you already know, (probably what you have forgotten about the 'iPhone I still need to learn), but on my little iPhone 7, the round button at the bottom, for opening up the 'phone, also controls the pages you open, in that if you press it twice quickly, all the pages you opened appear. If you swipe them up you close them, saving you battery power big time. I do this several times a day. Also, charge the 'phone at around 30%. Stop charging the 'phone at around 97%. You made NY seem really beautiful and a great place to visit. I only really visited the Empire State, and was whisked around a little bit of the city by a friendly taxi driver charging $100 for the day. Unfortunately he had to leave early. In any case I wanted to get out of NYC asap to move to Oregon.
Wow Dari look at you😃 I went to New Your about 20 years ago and I loved it…. The people are fantastic and a real it’s a multicultural/ multinational place, a real eye opener. I’m sure you’ll be fine and you will have a great time. Always look forward and don’t look back👍🇬🇧
Thank you so much!!
Sidewalk furniture. We recently got rid of a bureau or as non-bostonians call it a dresser that I got back in 1995 from my current roommate's former landlord. I don't even know how many people used it over the years. It wasn't fancy it was just cheap, probably not even wood. But it held up. We put it out on the side of the street because we don't have any sidewalks down here, it's really strange. and no one took it! I will have to check with my roommate again to see what ever became of it. Usually you don't have to throw things away because people will just come and take them. And especially in college towns, in May, people just put things out on the street I mean the sidewalk. I heard someone say to go to rich neighborhoods and you will find even nicer sidewalk furniture. But I was almost shocked before you mentioned that it came from the sidewalk. I thought you had actually bought furniture. (Yes, we do buy mattresses. By the way, what was the name of the mattress you bought? The one I'm sleeping on I've had it for 22 years and I really think it might be time... (Stupid thing cost $1,300. Seems to me that buying mattresses is confusing. Like buying cars.)
Good luck with your studies. New York is beautiful. Im really enjoying your gontent😊 Best wishes Matt xx
Glad you enjoy it!
I am SOOOO happy for you!!! you've accomplished the American dream!!
In the process of it 😃
Congrats Dari! Happy for you!!Enjoy New York 😘
Thank you 😊
Way to go Dari. Just be careful of the crime in NY
Trying to!
@@DariStep If anyone bothers you , speak Russian not English. It will shock them.
Keep your eyes open. I thought that guy behind you while you were filming on the subway platform looked sketchy/dodgy. @@DariStep
@@zedwpd Didn't seem that sketchy to me, looked like he was just looking down the track to see if his train was coming yet.
Nice video, welcome to NYC! You know, your friend bears a resemblance to the model in the painting at @12:15 in..... (the eyes mostly, I think)
You have already seen so much of the city in such a short time. When I was studying in NYC and living in Manhattan, I always found a trip to Central Park on a Sunday afternoon to be the best thing to do to relax from the fast pace of the city. And as a bonus, you get to see the incredible sky-line of
Fifth Avenue, Central Park South and Central Park West.
True 😍
Amazing video Dari l’m glad that you liked the view from the restaurant at the top stunning views and looks quite high up and you looked very happy. Similar views when l when up The Shard in London not as high as New York ones. I managed to take the picture of the view the toilet window and The Tower of London and Tower Bridge 800 feet up (243.84 metres).
So cool!
She is definitely a city girl. But, I hope in between semesters she takes the opportunity to see other parts of the country. There’s so much more to see in the USA than just New York City.
Will definitely try to do so :)
Welcome to the USA 🇺🇸 . I hope you enjoy your time here and get to experience all the great things about this country.
Thank you! 😃
Dari, you are delightful and lovely. GOD bless and prosper you in your life. ❤ Matthew.
Thank you!!
@@DariStepAnytime, spasibo bolshoe (sorry, don’t have my Russian keyboard switched on right now)❤
Ps, who’s the stunning girl with the big eyes and the beautiful blue jacket? She’s lovely.
Amazing video Dari!❤
Ps I don’t even know how many ads I skipped to watch your video. I guess that’s a good thing though 😅
Ahahha thank you!!! And that’s crazy lol didn’t know about it 😅😂
Enjoy it. You’ll have the time of your life!
I notice you're smiling more and Natasha said Russian's don't smile. And this is New York (not a smiling place).
I'm so happy that you are enjoying NYC and America!
There should not be much of a difference between American and international iPhones. The only difference would be that American iPhones have more 5G bands. You could try disabling Wi-Fi one your phone when you do not need it to save electricity.
It is possible that the battery in your iPhone is wearing out. You could try opening the settings app, select Battery and then select Battery Health and charging. It will show you how much your battery capacity has deteriorated from the initial 100% battery. My iPhone was bought new 18 months ago and now only has a 91% maximum capacity. Apple recommend that you take your iPhone into an Apple store and pay $50 to replace the battery if it falls below 80%.
The battery is fine tho (((
@@DariStep I know you are busy but if you want to see something really unusual in New York then seek out the 5th Avenue New York Apple store which is a cube of glass with the bulk of the store being underground. You could ask them why your phone seems slow. I would like to see a video of the trip. It is open 24/7.
Your videos are always os motivating. I've been in NYC studying for 5 years now, but it seems like you've had more interesting experiences than I've had. 😅
I would recommend you to visit the Russian Tea Room. It's a very visually impressive restaurant. You can get a discounts on Resuturant weak, which happens in NYC from time to time.
I want to visit this place!!!
I lived in NYC my entire life, and it never ceased to amaze me. I love Manhattan.
Go to Washington Square Park. walk down 8th St.(east) off of 6th Ave.
you need to take the tour of the NYC library lot of great information and history.
Amazing,so happy for you 🎉
It reminds me actually of when I moved from Europe to Canada... all the setup, all the everyday discoveries!
I hope you get to see the rest of the US and hopefully make it to Vegas!
Tenacity and perseverance are great qualities, and i can tell you have them in "spades.," also a great asset for a business person. Congrats on finding the apt., very happy for you! Now the marathon will start, you go girl😊. And once in a while, stop to smell the roses.
Found in 2 weeks. Thats fast. If you can make here you can make it anywhere. New York, New York. Yes id love to have a tour of the apartment and cost. Best wishes in your classes.
