It was a nice weekend getaway to Ladoga Lake, one of the biggest lakes in Russia. Ladoga is situated in Leningrad region and it's about an hour trip from St. Petersburg. If you would like to travel off the beaten track, you should definitely visit Ladoga Lake.

One of the things I love about your videos is the fact that you talk plainly without fuss or "plastic" for the show. Like that it's simple, pleasant, relaxing and people crave to watch more. Keep it that way, don't get into the tendency of "americanize" the narrative. You are doing it just perfect!
I enjoyed the ride to the lake and the lake is huge..it looked like an ocean..The steam engine was beautiful..Thanks for the history..Many blessings 👩🦳🥰💖🇺🇸
You are looking great in this dress and hair style. Best of luck my dear friend.
Very nice. I enjoy very much this type of content. Take Care.
What an intelligent, kind and beautiful young lady you are. Thank you for sharing this with english speakers. I am from the U.S. and have people in my apartment building from Russia and Ukraine. You are helping me to understand your heritage better and I thank you!
Thank you for your kind words!
I'm the Ukrainian USA citizen, and I also find these videos interesting. The cool part is that I can understand the people speaking in the background and Ksenia speaking Russian once in a while :)
Good video. thanks
nice
8:10 I love that music coming in off the lake

+Thank you for the video. I have been watching a series called "The World at War" and Leningrad has just been featured. It was telling us how many people starved to death and when some could get things to eat, it was bread made with sawdust. Did the railway to Lake Ladoga manage to operate during the war? The lake looks very beautiful. Are there bears in the area?
Thank you for your comment! It's so nice that you can watch series of how Russians managed to survive through those rough years!
Yes, the railway operated during the war. Trains delivered goods and food, and evacuated children from the sieged and starving St. Petersburg.
@@StPetersburgme Thank you. I am a little surprised about the railway as I thought the Nazis had bombed them all and there was only the ice road left to get supplies through. Did you see my question about the bears?
Oh, sorry for not answering! I haven't heard about bears or other wild animals in the area.
Beautiful video. Are you able to swim in the lake?
Russia is beautiful. How warm/cold is the water at that time of the year?
Woow nice youtube 🇷🇺🙏❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!

As an American, I can attest that Yanks and Russians are much more similar than different.
Beautiful place, I have learned so much in the past about the siege of Leningrad and its great to see the lake, the monument with the holes from German shells is the Boiler from an old steam train so it must have been hit with shells many times, the soviet peoples struggle especially at Leningrad remi ds me of our struggle here in Ireland and like you we never surrendered for 800 years, I always feel close at heart to the Soviet people, we know in our souls what freedom costs and we have paid the price so much my friend. I hope you and your friend enjoyed your day out from lockdown, you and I are so lucky to live in beautiful Countries 🌹
Stay safe

Beautiful video. Really appreciating seeing a different view of Russia.
I really enjoyed this video...i know that in WW2 Russia lost 20 million people and survived ..I am from a northern country too...Canada, and we like to go to the lake as well and get out of the city...But Lake Ladoga has a special meaning for your country...and thank you for explaining it to me. Your English is very good and you have a pleasant way of speaking!....Our people are not very different than your people! Be Well!
Thank you so much for the comment! I also think that people are more or less the same.
@@StPetersburgme I agree. I am in Nova Scotia and I feel that we are quite similar. I really appreciate getting so much in site on what my life would be like in Russia. Thank you so much Ksenia.
Lake Ladoga is a really wonderful place and I didn' t know that it's the third largest lake in Russia. Your video is also very moving as it reminds the lives that your country lost during the second World War, a very sad period for all european countries. Beautiful video
Thank for showing and explaining these great places for the remembrance of heroes !! You are doing a very good job and you make it enjoyable.
Thank you so much for sharing the beautiful scenery and the history of Lake Ladoga. I had not known about the Road of Life across the lake before.
Lake Ladoga is a fascinating part of the world. Thank you for making a video in English for a non-Russian speaking person.
Thank you for watching it!!
@@StPetersburgme ...show Lakhta Center to us...please !!!
I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this wonderful video..from the drive exiting St.Petersburg the beautiful forests, fields the park, the monument, the Road Of Life, the history, the picnic and the Lake, the waves, the sound of the waves and I must say THE BLUE SKY!!!! The Troupe train… so rich in history… Thank you so very much for sharing this exquisite day 🙏💙🙏💗🙏👏👏🥰
...and the lake is so beautiful and clean. I can also hear the waves. I love this video, Xenia. Болшое спасиба за видео!
How do you spell Leningrad? S a i n t P e t e r s b u r g !
Great video St Petersburg-me!! Hello from south africa!
Thank you very much for shoving and remembering of II war Broken Ring,I just find it on maps,And I see lots coments from USA Canada...... all english speaking poeple,I lived myself for 10 years in USA,and now 15 years in UK,but originaly from Czech Republic
Your country's progress and change in the last 30 years is unbelievable. You obviously have good leadership. Very happy for Russia! Warms regards from Canada!
that comment didnt age well xD
"We are going out of town with my friend" - that sound likes a literal translation of the RU construction "мы с другом". If there are only two of you, we would say "my friend and I". BTW: Part or all of the lake used to be in Finnland.
Thanks so much, I always wanted to see the Ladoga Lake. Slava! Greetings from Belgium
всё для фронта: all for the front instead of all for the troops, right?
Lake Ladoga. The Road of Life during WW2. I know my World History well.
Congratulations, beautiful video. Many thanks ❤
Looks like a beautiful destination. Is it fresh water or salt water? Does it get warm enough to go swimming?
If I ever make it to Russia I really hope to see the countryside and rural areas. Some of it looks pristine.
Another fascinating video. What was the temperature during your trip to the lake? It looked pretty chilly!
The fascists thought that they were superior, but through sheer courage, the Russians proved them wrong.
How much km it will take if I will go from saint petersburg to lake ladoka ?
The lake is almost the same size as Wales...an entire country in the UK!!
Thank you for this interesting and informative video.
What is the best way to go lake and what is the price of fair by bus or local train?
Love your content, do you have twitter?
You are doing great job,your English is excellent
Latoka,Kseni pagizemmo Karjalakse ?
With all the pine trees it looks like South Carolina in the U.S.
In School, I read a Dutch book on the evacuations you are talking about in this video. Driving trucks on the ice. The book was called Boris and it described the harsh conditions during the siege of Leningrad. Attacks on the convoys were done even by warplanes.
Again a link, unfortunately there is no translation for this article: nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boris_(boek)?wprov=sfti1
I like the arch. From a certain perspective it will look a complete arch. What's to see from there?
Any idea on how they keep the fire burning?
Nature is beautiful there though! Fun video to watch again. I like to see the countryside. 😁
Edit: 1. is there any tidal changes for the lake? Is it big enough to have some tide?
2. Doesn't your friend get fed up from you and your camera? 😂
What a beautiful train. I love trains. 🙈
Edit 2: the supports of the track have recently been replaced. The supports are now concrete. The wooden ones are still lying around on the sites. This dead-end is very much in use though. But, for what? It seems to be a very natural environment. 🤔 ooh wait. A trainstation.. 🙈 foolish me. 😂
Wow, it looks just like our Lake Erie. Absolutely huge, with giant ships way out near the horizon.
I find it absolutely amazing that it freezes solid enough that trucks were able to transport over it. Erie only freezes close to shore.
PS ...we have a train almost exactly like that in the middle of my town... Greenville Pennsylvania.
Good background music
Very interesting Thanks
That's interesting to hear *St.Petersburg - me* @16:58 to reference the memorial with the _Second World War_ instead of what I've generally heard it from the Russian perspective as _The Great Patriotic War._
Nice History video
Do you drive? Have a car? How expensive is it to buy and maintain a vehicle in Russia?
Love your purse (bag.)

Nice thumbnail. I should think about moving to Russia. I think my standard of living would actually go up in ways that westerners don't understand in a monetary sense.
Quality of life ❤
@@mariahsmom9457 and it shows. I've seen interviews with Russians on the street and they're just kind of relaxed... 👍
Cool vid =8)
Loved learning about the Broken Circle. I ended up bringing it up on Google maps and doing a little research. The lake was beautiful. I’m certain you would love the beaches here in Florida but they get pretty crowded during the summer months.
Video is very informative. Russia is big and beautiful. ♥️
Beautiful lake, my husband loves the train portion of the video.
What a beautiful country thank you for sharing your adventures
How about a video of the dachas near Spb. We used to visit a friend's dacha and it was very nice.
Good English talk of History of a nice lake
Hello, can I speak with you about a topic
You are a gem! This is wonderful...
Awesome❤️
Здравствуйте, большой грузовик @8.30 это Газ-66 (?).
What I was trying to say.
Hello, the big truck @8.30 could be a Gaz -66 I'm not sure though.
It's an ex СССР армия 4x4 off-road truck converted to an expedition vehicle автодом (?) In English we call them 'overlanders'
Очень многие в Монголии (very many in Mongolia) actually they are popular throughout Russia and Central Asia.
Thank you! Yeah, it really looks like Газ-66. I didn't know that.
