      Can you add a 'Buy Me a Coffee' link as that works whether the person is online or not whereas donationalerts said for contributors not to use it if you are not online at the time.

    Hello from Wisconsin USA sister. What a wonderful apartment and so well kept both inside and out. I found your channel through Sam. You both have wonderful channels and are always so upbeat. I love it.

    It's cool you have a good relationship with your grandma, I barely knew any of my grandparents as most passed away when I was young (I was born in 1985, while my parents were in their 30's already then with my dad from 1954 & my mom from 1948.) My dad's parents were all the way out in Maine and my family didn't visit with mom's parents that often either despite being also within the same state of Texas, but different cities a fair ways apart.

    @stanspb763 10 месяцев назад +1

    Your grandmother is a delight and she must be very proud of her granddaughter. The apartment was so clean and organized it embarrassed me how mine is the opposite.....but I confess it is not my fault, I invited a girl to come stay while her apartment was being remodeled, 9 years ago but she ever left. Not a girlfriend but a friend who is a girl and the only sloppy messy Russian woman I ever met. Her clothes once on, are always perfect but kept in piles almost her height.
    Your grandmother is so typical of others I have met, warm, modest, highly accomplished and highly educated, and very proud of her contribution to her country. A very sweet and charming lady.
    I really enjoyed my first view of your channel, you are vivacious, bright and really pretty. I am an American who has lived in St Petersburg 24 years and LOVE it, and my city center location is so convenient, walking distance to countless museums, concern halls, thousands of good restaurants, jazz and rock clubs, hundreds of drama theaters, 44 islands, 600 beautiful parks etc. I have been in 92 counties and Russia is where my heart is with so many great friends, many are talented actors for stage and cinema or opera singers, and musicians. I as in the music business in California for many years with a large recording studio where we produced 197 gold and platinum albums before giving everything away and moving to Russia. I arrived in 2000 Jan 8th with only 2 suit cases and $6000 and have a better life than I thought could be possible. Every day is a new fun or interesting adventure and meeting new friends literally every day. Your open friendly smile and joy in life reminds me of all my friends I have met wherever I go in Russia, but mostly stay here for fear of missing out on new adventures.
    One problem however is the sanction prevent me from using a credit card to send you some money unless direct transfer from my card to your account but it is too risky posting contact info on RUclips. Any suggestion?
    Also, there ARE ways of having your channel monetized with money sent from RUclips to content creators.

    Life doesn’t have to be complicated. Lovely cosy home she has made. Say thank you to your grandmother please, lovely woman. There’s an Englishman called Sam that lives in Vladimir he has a channel “Sam’s Russian adventures” maybe your grandmother has seen him as he’s always wandering around Vladimir with his camera talking to people asking questions and giving away Kinder surprise chocolate? Thanks again Malena for you and your grandmother’s hospitality. Ray a grandad from Tauranga New Zealand🇷🇺🇳🇿☺️

    Spasibo Milena for showing this video. It brought back some memories of my babushka. Her kitchen was about the same size and seeing that old pot on the stove reminded me of the things I saw in my grandmother's kitchen. I also recognized a couple of words at least when she was talking. I know very little Russian and wish I knew more, but I try to use it when I can even though I do not have only western keyboards.
    Spasibo for your videos Milena.
