    This video was shot 4 weeks before Russia invaded Ukraine. I am devastated by what is happening and my thoughts and prayers go out to the victims of this war. If you want to help, my friends @YesTheoryare currently in Poland and have started a GoFundMe to help Ukrainian refugees with food, water, and necessities. They have already raised $500,000, and 100% of proceeds are going directly to help save lives: Donate here: https://bit.ly/3N5jQGJ

    Okay, now onto the description of the video… Riding on the Trans-Siberian Train has been a bucket list adventure for me for as long as I can remember (8 years?). The train starts in Moscow and then travels 10,000 kilometers Eastbound across Siberia until it ends in Vladivostok. I was lucky enough to catch Trans-Siberian train for a 30-hour leg – from Irkutsk to Novosibirsk – and it was one of the wildest travel experiences of my life. Even in the middle of winter, where temperatures were around -30C, I couldn’t believe how scenic the views were out the window. It felt like a dream!

    On the Trans-Siberian train, I met two incredible characters – Gregory (the train conductor) and Sacha (the drunk passenger) who I shared the entire experience with. I will never forget this train ride. It was the journey of a lifetime, and I can’t wait to (hopefully) finish the rest of the adventure someday soon. Siberia is truly a remarkable place. Thank you for watching.

      Я живу в Омске, те парни которых ты встретил в поезде это обычные алкоголи, я бы с ними сразу не связывался
      А вообще у нас очень много хороших людей, особенно в поездах)

      Russians seem to be quite nice. It all about education and propaganda. They are brainwashed that the west wants to attack them. Probably if i were in their position i would had the same logic

      Author, thanks for the video! Very interesting! And the war in Ukraine was created and produced by the USA! I want to say that there are no good or bad wars and military operations. But to be honest, I don’t understand … Was it such that when the United States attacked (invaded) Iraq, they imposed sanctions, were expelled from the Olympics, or were forced to compete under a foreign / neutral flag, and so on? Was it such that the Americans were blamed everywhere and everywhere for the attack on Iraq, poking their noses at it and asking everywhere about this war? I definitely see the difference when some consider themselves superhumans who can do anything, while others consider themselves garbage without rights, but with responsibilities. In addition to Iraq, there were many other countries that were invaded by the states or NATO, which is supposedly a defensive alliance, which, of course, is a complete lie. But I repeat, there are no good wars and conflicts.

      I hope in all the western media and news you're watching, your thoughts are also with the innocent russian civilians that are being displaced, discriminated and m*rdered. There is plenty of footage and proof online available to confirm how russian civilians are being attacked since many years (prior to current situation). My family is from both russia (Novosibirsk!🫶) and Ukraine, so I've got to hear and see both sides. Don't believe everything one-sided. I hope all innocent Ukrainians stay well and safe and peace will prevail in the countries.

      Thank you for deciding to upload this video regardless of politics. I love both countries, both people and I want justice and peace on both sides, may god bless and protect us all.🤲

      When you have lots of free time but instead of trying to read a book or learn something like a language or so, you chose to continuously drink yourself to sleep.
