Hearted Youtube comments on Rachel Blevins (@RachelBlevins) channel.

  1. Im an America United States Marine Corps Veteran of the Afghanistan War, I have lived in Siberia for the last year. I will not leave Russia. They have made this plea for Americans to leave for over a year already so nothing has happened. 🇺🇸❤🇷🇺 There is plenty of us Americans in Russia! Getting in and out of Russia is not a problem 😅

  2. Rachel, Well done! I am a New Yorker who has been living/working in Russia since 1991. I think it is important especially now for fellow Americans to get the truth and actual realities in Russia - not the fantasies, untruths and spin that is so prevalent stateside. Thank you. Paul

  4. Greetings from Serbia. I am glad that you like our mother Russia 😊. Serbia is the only country in Europe that is on Russia's side, and didn't imposed sanctions on Russia (although the EU threatens us with sanctions and isolation). You said that you could only travel to Russia via Turkey and Dubai. There is another way (I would say cheaper). To travel directly with Air Serbia. You can travel from New York to Belgrade and from Belgrade to Moscow, and vice versa 😉

  5. I can fully agree with you Rachel! Been to Russia 6 times the last year to different places. People are so friendly, kind an helpful. And compare to other countries in the world Russia is safe. I love it and will move there with a pleasure. 🇷🇺🇸🇪🇷🇺

  6. I am Chinese, it is very easy now for us to go traveling in Russia, lots of Russian tiktokers welcoming us to go and speak with perfect chinese, so expect to see lot of Chinese tourists in the near future!

  7. As our classics of literature Rachel said, “When you come to Russia once you will be amazed by the expanses and people and you will come back here for the rest of your life,” someone discovers people, someone has opportunities and someone has a unique experience in life. But most importantly, Russia accepted you and opened its heart, and I think over time you will discover something deeper and more unique in life. You are a great fellow, we love you and are always glad to see you and other Americans and people from all over the world. We look happy, sad and experience all the moments together with you.

  8. It is so nice to hear a person who has not blocked the mind, who has the ability to infer his own conclusions without adjustments for political correctness.

  9. Thank you so much for telling us about your experience of Russia. Voices like yours, speaking 'from the inside', from Moscow, are indeed so important when people in all the Western countries are now submerged under layers and layers of the most idiotic and horrendous propaganda about Russia, and the people who live there. I'm personally grateful to women like Eva Bartlett (who btw also lives in Russia now, I think) or Vanessa Beeley, who were reporting from Syria at the time of the horrors of the attempted US/NATO regime change there. They were about the only ones to post images of real life in Syria, of the real Syrians, and most of their reports and interviews showed a very touching reality that was of course totally absent from the Western MSM where everyting concerning Syria was demonized. I consider them simply all part of a crime against journalism and against humanity. Thank you for keeping us posted with real news of real people living in Russia! It is so important, so much more human that the propaganda we get from those media who toe the line. I appreciated your work on RT (and RT's voice among the Western media) for many years before all this craziness happened to us. Let's hope for some change for the better.

  11. Winter greyness sounds a lot like Scandinavia. Btw, Moscow was voted the safest large city in the world just some 2-3 years ago.

  12. Professor MORANDI,...you're a legend mate! The western media can't ignore you now and well done RACHEL,..keep up the good work.

  13. Seeing Moscow and the metro and shops, it's all so so clean, and so lovely to see.

  14. I grew up in America on the far left politically, but one of the things that draws me to Russia (aside from its beautiful culture) is its conservatism. Also, its collective mentality, one of the positive legacies of the Soviet Union. I'm gettin' old but I'm not dead yet, so I'd like to experience Russia first hand, and for a while. You're a lucky lady.

  18. Hey Rachel love the channel I am an Australian in Moscow. My girlfriend is Russian and her family live here and we are visiting them for a month. No issues with flights as we live in Thailand and there are direct flights everyday, no issues at customs, everyone is super nice and I love being here I don’t feel threatened at all this place is awesome.

  19. thanks Rachel for sharing, I cannot convey enough my jealousy that you get to be in Moscow at this time in history!
    266
  20. Thanks for this video. It’s gratifying to see another American comfortably living in Russia!

  21. Went to Moscow and St. Petersburgh a little over 10 years ago. It was late spring and I simply fell in love with the people. Both cities were beautiful and the people very friendly. Thanks for sharing your experiences! Best regards!
    231
  22. Finding out that you're a Texan just made me like this channel even more. Thanks for keeping us informed on life in Russia.

  23. I love mother Russia. I envy you. Yes, the path is not close, but everything went well. What a beautiful city.
    219
  24. Have fun in Moscow! Hopefully we will get back to more normal time and direct flights to Russia!

  25. Thank you, Rachel, for providing your personal story and window into the lives and lifestyle of every day people in Russia and what it's like to interact with and being amongst them. People in the US really need to hear and see what you are opening up to them.

  26. На войне как на войне, как сказали бы тут - учитывая вашу работу, смелость, самостоятельность и даже поздравили бы с боевым крещением за любой синяк. Берегите себя, спасибо за столь подробный влог!

  27. Ah! I miss Moscow! Glad to see you back in Russia for a while. The best to you 😊

  28. Thank you Rachel and Mark. Independent journalists with journalistic integrity are the heroes of our time.

  29. I miss you so much! I loved your personal political/economic reports and RT America talk show. Thanks for making this video though - I was wondering how was your life in Moscow and I was happy to learn that it’s pretty much coincided with my opinion. I’m sorry to hear that you’re home seek - no doubt it’s difficult. It will get much easier in a year or so - Moscow’s magic tends to “muscovite” people for life. You have to get Russian friends though, they’ll change your world perspectives by redefining your understanding of friendship entirely - it’s so deep and so profound, that everything else, apart from a family of course- would seem shallow; you’ll never feel lonely again, especially when you’re down and out. I’d love if you can cover Moscow’s re-creational activities. I’ve heard that there was always something happening and something to do and that it’s rather affordable.

  30. All's well that ends well. Be more careful next time :) Slipping in the bathtub can be really disastrous. That's interesting that I travel to Russia couple times a year and each time I am surprised that I don't have to adjust at all. Within five minutes after I step off the plane in the Russian airport I have the feeling I never left. The same thing happens when I return to the US..

  31. Rachel, you summarized the fundamental flaws and evils of the US empire better than anyone else I’ve heard recently. Bravo!

  32. I am surprised YT is allowing pro Russian content... 😂 Beautiful over there

  33. I've been here as a US citizen since 2014. None of the listed reasons for US citizens to leave really affect me. Moving money to and from and traveling are a pain in the behind, but everything else is no problem.

  34. I know the feeling, being away from home, family, friends.... I'm Russian, living in Moscow and I lived in US for almost 6 years. My teacher in my high school in Moscow suggested that I become an exchange student and go to US for my senior year, so I went and spent a year in high school in Michigan. I was 16 years old and it was a bit scary to travel to another part of the world, different culture, different way of life, even people looked different )) And just like you I left my family and all my friends behind. I was on the plane with 50 other Russian exchange students and later I found out that 47 of them returned back to Russia within a month ( I guess they were homesick). I graduated from high school in Michigan and then I spent 4 more years in university in Illinois. After university I spent another year travelling around US, Mexico and Canada. My first year in US was the hardest one but as I got to know country, people, culture.... I got the feeling that everything and everyone around me were not that different then back home in Russia. What I'm trying to say is that may be later on you will feel the same way. Just give it some time. As a guy who spent his best teenage years in US I assure you that when your contract is over and you'll go back home you won't regret the time you spent here in Russia )) I know I will never regret my decision to turn my life around and move to US for 6 years. Every year I visit my host parents from my high school year and friends in US. It was experience of a lifetime. Hope you enjoy your stay in our beautiful city.

  35. A very green city. I like corners of wild nature right in the city. A good genre of video straight from the streets of the city. We all love it. So you can walk around and tell a story and just philosophize on different topics and maybe interact with passers-by (is there a language barrier?).

  36. Your statue of liberty is a fabulous and beautiful parody of what she came to celebrate. This lady cannot bear what she is seeing from America ! That's real vision !
    149
  37. I am actually scared to go back to The US It would be cool to know what sort of problems you ran into if any. Im an American War veteran who's lived in Siberian Russia for over a year now and I have to go back eventually to Renew passports and visas... Thanks for the video.

  38. I've traveled a lot in Russia and I agree that they are very nice and hospitable. Will go back there one day, i miss it a lot.

  42. Great to see a real independent journalist , Rachel keep up the great work !
    137
  43. Sanction mostly hit the Americans who are from Russia. Very difficult to visit families, help your old parents and etc,,,You are right, people will find the way around it but how much more stress and money.
    135
  44. Dear Rachel, we all support your hard work. Thank you kindly! Please, get well as soon as possible! Plenty of positive energy and love!

  45. It's always so good to listen to this Iranian professor. I just love his straightforward, clear analysis of the situation. We need more people like this in our struggling world.
    124
  46. Glad to see you Rachel producing this kind of videos. Thank you for sharing with us this side of your life. Hope to see more of this soon, if it's possible, of course. Wish someday to visit Russia. What a wonderful country, the capital of the multipolarity world 😊

  47. Hello Rachel, I subscribed to your channel a few months ago. You are a great journalist. I think the main problem of moving abroad is the lack of communication. If you could understand and speak Russian at least a little, then half of your stress would not even exist. By the way, you are a talented speaker. Good luck.👍

  48. I am glad that it became a little easier for you here in Russia and I hope you will continue to be pleasantly surprised by this large and diverse country =) it is good that your past experience has not made you sad.

  49. Your interviews with Mark Sleboda are amongst my favorite on YouTube

  50. Friendly greetings to all from Russia. Peace.
