I have lived in Thailand for more than 17 years now. We only have two seasons here -- hot with sun and hot with rain. I really miss real seasons. I lived in the mountains in New Mexico, U.S.A., and loved the snow there every winter. Perm is exactly how I imagine Russia in the winter and makes me want to visit someday in December or January. Love your videos always.

I put my food and water inside of a cooler to keep them from freezing 🧊... it's crazy 🤪! But I'm loving it 🏂 ❄🏔🌨

I once had the pleasure of landing during a 3 day blizzard in Moscow. My hotel was in Ismailova. I arrived 10 am in the morning and finally got to Partizansky metro station about 7 pm. Traffic was horrid. I remember struggling with my baggage through drifts of snow 3 feet deep to the hotel Gamma. Halfway there I noticed some street dogs watching me from a sheltered entrance to a store. I wondered if they were laughing at me, feeling sorry or wondering if they should finish me off in an act of mercy. I still love Russias winters, They're the real thing. I recommend anyone to go experience one.

Regarding learning languages, I would like to share my experience with Russian and Italian. I learned Russian the hard way, without the computer. After many years I still could not speak in Russian. But many years later I still remember everything that I learned in Russian. With Italian it was different, I learned it by teaching, by going with my class through the book and I was ahead two chapters, studying first myself, then teaching it to the small group. I was able to speak Italian after 6 months. I was almost fluent. However, after I left Italy and never used the language, I completely forgot what I learned. Now I know the benefit of hard work: it stays longer in our head if we put more effort during the learning process.

Greetings Eli, my lovely distant cousin. Many years ago I worked at an ice cream factory, where the storage warehouse was kept at a constant -35¯C. One Friday afternoon a team from the local university arrived, with all their equipment, for 60 hours of training, camping in the deep frozen warehouse from Friday until Monday morning, in preparation for their upcoming Antarctic expedition. To put this in perspective, I grew up in a part of Australia where +18¯C is considered cold. When the participants emerged from the freezer on Monday morning, the looks on their faces said that maybe some of them were having second thoughts about Antarctica. But it's true, frozen air is always fresh because there is zero humidity, all the moisture has fallen to the ground.

Great video! A wonderful look at a distant people. Here in Southern California the seasons don’t really change, and by that I mean the scenery stays about the same. It will get a little greener for a bit in the spring and in the winter the mountains get snow capped but other then that very little change. The temperature is the biggest change, alternating in winter from just below freezing (30F/-1C) to, (and depending where you are) brutally hot (115F/46C) in the summer. I actually live a short drive from Death Valley so I guess you could say we are almost the opposite in climates, you get really cold and we get really hot. I very much like the cold more, you can always put more cloths on to get warm, and like my Grandma used to say; “You don’t want to see me if I have to take enough stuff off!”. I love traveling and it would be an interesting experience to visit to experience the Legendary Russian Winter. Likewise if you ever visit SoCal in the summer, send me a message and I’ll gladly give you a few pointers on surviving the Heat! Stay Warm, Stay Safe, and Stay Wonderful!

You're pretty heavily dressed up there for -19! For those of you not familiar with cold, here is a guide (in Celsius): -5 a bit chilly -10 this is when you start to have problems with humidity in your home, ice will form on the inside of your windows, even with double-glazing, so you have to lower the RH (have a bath in lukewarm water to hydrate your skin, can't be hot otherwise it will evaporate too quickly) -15 this is when you really start to feel it outside, things start to get difficult -23 this is the temperature of a walk-in freezer; skin freezes on contact with air after five minutes -35 water vapour freezes immediately on contact with air (at least imx), time to turn on the block heater and you have to be super careful when you touch the steering wheel (wear gloves). Drinks in the drink holder turn into slushies -45 painful to breath, immediately feel the inside of your lungs I remember talking to a guy who grew up in a mining camp in the Yukon. He was telling me a story about how one day he was going to school in -60 and the axle on his dad's pickup truck snapped in the cold and they were stranded for over an hour, and I was like, "you were going to school in -60?"

When I became a vegetarian, there's a thing I noticed, when you eat meat, your body will use a lot of energy to proccess that, so you may feel more warm, but you'll feel tired more easily, in the other hand, when you eat only green things, you may feel more cold than others, plus if you drink hot things too much (soup, tea) you may got a stomach fever, here on Brazil, eating only green things helps me to pass the summer without that feeling that I'm in a oven Anyway, it's nice to see that even on cold winter, people may live as usual there, because here where I live if temperature raises a little, people already start thinking to go to the beach, even if it's a work day

I love this video, Eli! It makes one want to visit Perm, even with the cold weather! By the way (you may already know this), one of the greatest female Chess players of all time was born in Perm: Alexandra Kosteniuk 😊 She was the Women's World Chess Champion from 2008-2010; she also won the Women's Rapid World Chess Championship in 2021 in Warsaw (so she's still an active player). She has won many other titles and medals. (Her sister, Oxsana / Oksana, is also a strong Chess player, "Master" rated, I believe.) I think Alexandra moved to Moscow when she was little. Even so, it might be fun to do a research video about the Chess culture of Perm and reflect on the great player who was born there. (I know there is a "Perm University Chess Club" that has many accomplishments.) Best wishes always from California, USA, Eli! 🐴

Saying hello from Perth, Australia yesterday the temperature here was 42C. Wouldn't mind some of that snow and ice. Nice show mate. Russia is a country that always intrigues us Australians.

Your hosting is informative, undramatized, open minded, and progressive. I'm glad to get this honest window into a complex country most often represented narrowly and fictitiously in the States

Very nice video of a winter day with interviews. Loved those floating labels - seems to be a new video technique added to your skillet. When I started learning Polish and Lithuanian, the thing I discovered most is how little I understood the structure of my native English language which made conjugations all the more challenging. For instance, the first time I saw "genitive case", I thought, "what on earth is that?" 🥴

Hello Eli, I just discovered your channel. I am a former civil servant and educator who just recently retired. I am from the USA. I live in the State of Kansas. Kansas is very flat and over 90% of the land is used for agriculture. Much like the steppe in your country. Our winters are not as cold as yours. But we do get cold days here. But it gets to 40 Celsius or more in the summertime. When schools get cancelled due to too much snow or extreme cold. Our children do the same thing as your children do. I learned German as a boy from my elder relatives who were of German heritage. I learned Spanish in University. This is the most useful Non English language in America. Particularly if your work for the government or you are an educator. You have a wonderful channel. Take care.

I go pretty nice along with winter, snow and summer. Snow and clear air about - 15 - 25 c° and toward mighty light summer with bright greenish awakening. Nice hat. Allthough every of those go along nicely with you😊

It's just like I imagined it in your video. From what I have seen, read, and heard Russian people are very resilient and can adapt to any kind of weather but especially the cold. Personally I prefer Spring and Autumn. Thank you for the excellent video Elli.

There isn't anything more beautiful than winter with snow. Cold weather just makes coffee and food taste even better. I love winter with cold and snow. Great video, Eli!

I lived in Northern Michigan for 12 years. Not quite as cold as Perm…. although snowmobiling requires really warm clothing when it’s -20° and going 45km/h. We were very accustomed to cold weather. And like you… I love all the 4 seasons… they all have their specialness and beauty.

I moved from Michigan to Florida 7 years ago. Believe it or not, I miss the Michigan winters and snowmobiling in the Upper Peninsula and Leelanau County.

@@rjimeson1 My family has lived in Michigan since 1870. All of them lived in Charlevoix County. I've known many people who have moved to other states including Florida and often they move back to Michigan. The biggest issue for most was they never felt "welcome" wherever they moved to or missed Michigan's seasons.

Ya it was like how I imagined the winter, I will say...I would have LOVED being able to skate outside growing up because I have played hockey since I was 11 years old! But I often had to play on inline (roller) hockey skates because the places I lived didn't have always ice skating 😉 , that is a lot layers you have to wear there!

Enjoyed learning about your life in Perm. Certainly it was very informative and also stereotype busting, these videos are very eye opening. Also you are beautiful with that red hair. I’m watching from Kentucky, USA. 👍🏼👍🏼

Thank you sharing this beautiful video in such a cold situation, especially for those poor street vendors at the market, as I cannot immagine how they can be out all day, but certainly joyful for the children, like your cute niece and nephew who seem to have fun in the snow.The Russians, differently from other peoples are used to it and I also think that each season, even the coldest one, is wonderful. Great video as usual

I can feel the chill just watching!! Nice video. Currently in Northeast Massachusetts USA we are in a snow and ice storm. 4 distinct seasons here. Hot humid summers, glorious and colorful autumns, nasty winters and rainy blooming springs. Looking forward to the Yakutsk vids. Stay safe and warm.

Hi, Eli. I love your channel and have been watching your videos for a long time. I didn't know you were from Perm, and now I suddenly see the neighborhood at Vishka 2, where I grew up!!! This is amazing!
