I didn't see any issue So this is the thing when you travel you experience because normally I don't think there is any effect in Russia I mean safety wise of course local people are affected and still they are but I think as a tourist I don't think there is any issue but if you go to Ukraine it is very opposite because Russia's land size is so big I don't understand but if you go to that country there is a problem there is a threat and I have been there one shawarma one coffee thank you I was looking for a small cafe but there is no shed here so I had to eat in the cold so I bought a shawarma and a coffee I was hungry so let's eat thank you I am buying water for the first time I have never bought water before there is an issue in Russia when you buy water you have to tell if you want it with or without gas because they drink a lot of water with gas this is the situation after drinking I don't know what I am doing I have eaten food four times he is asking for alcohol they are drinking beer this guy is crazy I got rid of that crazy man and ate shawarma I was hungry the weather is so depressing there is no sun it's 4 in the evening the sunset is around 5.30 if I tell you the sun will

this for the last 3-4 years I have explained a lot I have to take a tram but I am not able to explain what is a host it's a platform called Couchsurfing where travelers use it to find a host it's similar to Airbnb but you don't have to pay it's free of cost it's a popular platform in Europe and Russia you will find a couchsurfer it's very popular that's the reason I am couchsurfing it's easy to find a host you can save money you can understand the culture it's a great experience this is my host let's take a tram can we go or not? I think we can this is the tram it's very old I didn't even check the direction of the train I was supposed to go in the opposite direction but I went in the opposite direction and the funny thing is it was a little far I didn't even check my phone I am going somewhere else I have to change the train it's a long journey you will get all the information about the tram and bus in the Yandex app I have to go somewhere I am somewhere near Komu Munaro it's a little far I can't take a tram from here I have to take a bus this is the problem when you travel alone and you are in a new city the buses here are similar to the buses I saw in Yakutsk there were more modern buses in Moscow but here you can see old school Russian buses you can see the temperature it's around 5.42 this is our bus it's a 100% good bus but it's a little crowded I am here near my host's house the bus driver dropped me here I don't understand one thing why the sky is orange in Russia I told you this when I came to Moscow it's orange here but it's normal here you can see I still don't understand if you know why it's orange let me know in the comments I am inside the apartment I have to go to the 9th floor look at the lift wow it's a modern lift crazy hello how are you doing? nice to meet you Pasha? he is my host Pasha he is my host in Yakutinburg this is his house you also play guitar this is a chord guitar this is a slipper which I have to wear in the banya actually my host is taking me to the banya you were saying it's a Russian Russian sauna Russian spa for that they have set the clothes I am at home they are taking me to the banya you can see their skirts this is Persian or what cat is this? breed it's just a regular cat breedless cat you have so many cats oh my god we used to have 3 but recently we took another one that's also a cat? no just a few this is our welcome drink as soon as I entered you said it's a herb drink herb cheers all of it all of it I know it's rough oh my god it's very strong you can do it all at once but this is a really unique drink I haven't they have something like this in Germany they call it bitter okay cool welcome it's very strong so guys we are on the way to the banya we are going to experience there is one special thing when you do local house surfing as soon as I came here he said let's go if I want to go to the hostel I would be resting so he is taking me today he said it will be a public place where all men will be together normally they are naked so I don't know if I can record but let's see so you said that it's hard to record there right because everyone would be naked there you can try last time I tried this I think if you have seen my other videos people do it here it's a very famous culture banya culture in Russia so our host Pasha he is from Belarus so you are from Minsk right? not from Minsk so he is from Belarus but he stays here with his wife and he works in IT software engineer yeah software engineer so we are here he is looking at the system look at this he is explaining the system I am going inside look at this this is the whole therapy and this is the place so this is our locker I have kept all my clothes and mobile I am completely naked and we are going to the war which is the Russian banya it's going to be crazy last time I was here and everyone is naked I feel like I am in Japan oh so hot it's nothing so far so good we are in the steam room some water stones my Russian camera is all wet it's all wet oh I can't speak it's so hot here what's the temperature here? 85-90 it's around 85-90 so this is how it is let's sit I am all sweaty so this is the Russian banya if I tell you about the health benefits the Russian banya is very good in medical terms and you burn a lot of calories The temperature of the water inside the pan should be below the temperature of the egg.
Our friend is telling us. I have to press it? Yeah, just stay under the circle, you know. Under the circle? Yeah, yeah.
It's not so cold, right? Oh, it's so cold. Add some more, add some more. Your turn, your turn. Yeah, but man, I'm getting so hot.
You have to pull and you have to hold, you know. So more water comes. Okay. Alright, let's see.
This is more colder? It's so cold, oh my God. Come on, come on. It's so cold. You're good? You're okay? // Native language // Something like this also happens here? It's like a private session. Private session. No idea.
You mean giving a massage to a girl? What kind of tea is this? This looks like some special tea. It's sea buckthorn tea. // Native language // Alright, cheers. Cheers. // Native language // One of the best experiences. I mean, if you can do it after coming to Russia.
Bro, it was fun. Right now, after one round, we'll take another round. But I couldn't show it to you properly on camera. I showed it to you for the first time. By the way, normally it was not allowed to take it there as well. But there were less people then, so I recorded it.
So, bro, this is how the whole system is here, bro. Russian Bania. You can see all the people here, bro.
They're eating, drinking, drinking beer. So, bro, this is how the whole system is. Here, bro, you can see the whole club is here. They've made it. // Native language // So, we've come to the supermarket. We've run out of gold.
And we've bought these things. Our friend is saying that people leave their clothes outside the supermarket like this. Look, there are shoes as well. So, if you want, you can pick it up and leave. // Native language // But right now, we've run out of gold.
It feels like I'm alive again after dying. I mean, it was such a dangerous experience for us. Bro, I'm all fresh now. I've taken a shower so many times in a day.
I don't remember when I took a shower before this. But for now, the process is over. // Native language //
