"The women are friendlier" as he says this, unbeknownst to him some pretty girls wave at the camera. :D Отлично!

I like your videos,bald and bankrupt sent me here.

8:20 At this point those girls confirm what you say for No.1 reason that you like Belarus.

I lived in many locations around the world including several Eastern European countries one of which was Belarus. I was in Borisov or baysaw as it is sometimes transliterated. I agree with all you say here, I lived in training camp hotel in a forest miles from the city. I have never tasted the air before when you are outside it was like you can feel and taste the oxygen it was so clean and fresh. The only equivalent place that had air like that was when I lived at altitude in Switzerland. Obviously the vast amount of forest is creating such conditions very healthy.

The girls were waving at the camera at the precise moment, perfect timing!

I am from Belarus myself. Completely agree on nature, people, partly on food. Since I've spent part of my life in Western Europe, Singapore, China, I can compare what is like living in these parts of the world. When I am abroad I miss Belarusian forests and lakes, girls are really pretty and smart at the same time, food is lovely but a bit bland for my taste after Singapore food LOL :) I want to spice up everything and miss Laksa soup badly when in Minsk. However, the political and econimical situation in Belarus are complicated. I was born in Minsk, lived almost all my life in Minsk, married a girl from Minsk, we have two kids, but we still don't have a place to live in Minsk. I am a researcher and research jobs in Belarus are limited and with unstable salary. Here in China the govement understands that research is meaningful for the economy in the long run and has ability to put way more money in research. In Belarus you can either be an IT guy working on foreign customers or part of the government apparatus to arrange decent living.

What a wonderful channel and author! You show our country from positive point of view. And you live here, as I understand. Welcome to Belarus!

Yes, Belarusian Ladies would be my first choice too. Mine is priceless, shes everything I ever wanted. Most people dont believe what you say though. Especially in western countries. See for yourself......Its very Refreshing.😁

Ireland and Belarus both share extreme love for potatoes. Russians even jokingly call Belarus "Bulbastan" ("Potatostan")

Although I have never been to belorus my Russian tutor was from there and I think Belarusian people are some of the nicest people in Europe

The love of my life it's a belorusian girl, the most beautiful woman in the world, love your video!!!

I married a Belarussian woman from Gomel 20 years ago. Met her in 1995. Yes. They are all that you said. Until you piss them off, that's when you see true wrath. Some advice, don't ever get so drunk you can't defend yourself. I've been where you're walking too.

Very interesting as usual.

When I started visiting Lithuania and Belarus I realised how ethnically and culturally diverse my own home town has become over the last 20-25 years. Brought back memories of when I was growing up which was unexpected (and the cars, there were still plenty of these 1980s Ford, Volkswagen etc. on the streets of Minsk at that time). It also seems that Belarusians have retained more cultural, religious and folk traditions than in my own country, and national identity is not as controversial a subject. As far as food goes I quite like Belarusian cakes, the big ones you can buy in the bread plant shops and in supermarkets and Soviet classics like Kartoshka.

As an American I will say this. 1. My last girl friend was from Belarus, nothing negative to say. 2. I prefer all Slavic women in general. They are more aesthetically pleasing. Mean while in the USA 70% of the women here are overweight or obese, 50% are married are engaged, which leaves me with -20% women to date.

If you make your money elsewhere ( working by internet for example ) and spending it in Belarus, of course it is very lucrative and everything is so cheap. But if you have to work for ordinary Belarus salaries, then it doesnt look so good any more

He forgot to mention how inexpensive things are in Belarus !

I agree. Hopefully Belarus keeps its identity and avoids the EU

Wow, thank you very much for your invitation, I love your channel! 😊 I've never been to Belarus, and I want to!))

One can find basically all of the advantages of living in Belarus also in neighbouring Lithuania and Latvia - and you have the baltic sea in addition. True, prices might be slightly higher than in Belarus (still quite low as compared to Western European levels), but then, as a EU citizen, you can forget about visas, residence permits, customs etc.... Also, the risk of getting arbitrarily arrested (and worse) by the authorities is significantly lower.

Two friendly ladies right on cue.

Love your video! I agree with all 5 🇧🇾🇧🇾🇧🇾🇧🇾

Wrong about something. Last bisons in Europe aren't in Poland and Belarus only, but also Romanian Carpathian mountains.

Great video my Irish friend! Cheers from Texas!

I just found your channel. As a young America teenager, I lived in Minsk from 1997 to 2000. I have not had a chance to go back since but I miss the city and the people. It’s great to see the city again in your videos.

As an Orthodox inquirer I'm planning to visit the Saint Elisabeth Convent in Minsk. This video convinced me to go even more.

I also arrived to Belarus 1,5 year ago, It's a beautiful country!

Cheers from a fellow Paddy.. Great content.. Like many guys here I just discovered your channel while searching for info on Belarusian women.

Nice video, man. I would say, in general, Slavic girls are more down-to-earth and really, as you mentioned, easy going. Its not like they will jump right in bed with you after the first shot of vodka, but its easier to make connection and continue to support conversation with them. Of course, there is exceptions from both sides.

Hoping to come out to Belarus next year if all this covid finally disappears! Keep safe out there. My family are from sligo & Dublin 👍🏼

8:20 speaking of Belarussian girls friendliness and the 2 girls were waving.Was that staged?!

hi because of you i think you may have many more irish visitors...its a lovely country...

actually all these are good reasons and I can also confirm that, as Belarus is also my motherland. But, Lukashenko doesn´t have his citizens as a first priority, don´t make a mistake or mislead your audience. Luka(shenko) only bothers to have absolute political power with no opposition whatsoever. No independent TV or newspaper, no criticism of the country leader is allowed. Country with no human rights, courts without any justice, but only with mostly guilty verdicts. Yes, that´s nice to live here with no worries enjoying the bright site of belarus, but, there is no future for the nation with Lukashenko. That´s why many young and initiative professionals migrate from Belarus. Many more want to do this also, but not everyone can. Anyway, good luck and enjoy Belarus :)

I knew you were an anti-globalist at heart ❤️🇮🇪👍☘️

I am British Muslim. I've always favoured Irish food especially - cheeses and anything related to potatoes. Mashed potatoes with thyme and some chillis (minus butter and milk - instead we use olive oil). Shepherd's pie (beef that is marinated in fried onions, thyme, peas, garam masala) Never tried draniki or blini or kopytka. What we normally do at home is that my ma and I prepare Pakistani and Turkish foods. In regards to what potato meal we do, my ma usually slices the potatoes and dips them into batter with spring onions before frying them. Or we do paratha with potato filling before shallow frying. Aloo gobi Batata vada Batata Harra

очень классно, что мы хоть кому-то нравимся, потому что зачастую мы не нравимся даже сами себе!

I was in Minsk for a week in December 2019, and I have to agree the food is fantastic.

Here by way of shout out by Mr. Bald. Cheers Enjoyed your Lost in Minsk with Bald.

I am here thanks to 'Bald and Bankrupt' and I really enjoy it. I am also Polish and always got huge respect to our Belarusian brothers :))

I think Eastern Europe in general is underappreciated. Good value for money (except Prague), beautiful scenery, loads of history.

You have sold it to me. I’m coming there after lockdown is over!

Please keep up the content maybe some interactions with the locals ! I am a Canadian with Belarusian decent and would love to see more about this lovely country !

I spent a couple of days in Minsk in 1988..under the Soviet regime i remember It was a quite gray And calm city..now It seems so different...nice video...

2:05 Latvia is also a fantastic country with beautiful nature.

I love your 1st Favourite reason! Nice Video Maaan 👍🏼

Belarus is safe haven country for Europeans to escape diversity, its hard to get into Belarus but its worth it to move there

Somebody from Ireland speaking out against multiculturalism. Now there's a surprise 😂😂😂

I went to Minsk and it was great. Friendly people good food and very safe

Belaruss seams like a nice place to just retire and chill out, tbh all coutry regions around the area is like that, in the first part he litelarry described eastern europe

I totally agree no.1 as no.1. The character of women in Balerus amazed me. Not just pretty like an angel. I met the 1st Belarus lady already strongly attracted by her not just her angel face but her fantastic character too. Unless she got married I won't date another person. Well, if she got married I will wait until she divorce then. ;P

Great video; very informative as usual. Yourself and Mr Bald are really putting Belarus on the map.... 👍🏻

Thank you. Very interesting.

Thank you!

Your culture is more important than any structural EU funds, and Poland Czech Hungary seem to get this, great to see Belarus protect its culture!

Hard to argue your number one point. at 8:20 there are some friendly folks waving! Looks like a great place!

All true but the air quality. I lived in Poland for 20 years, and, despite the number of forests, I can tell you that the air quality in that part of Europe is just awful, coal-based energy and heating system is a killer, literally, in Poland, the problem is known because of EU regulation about control of air quality, in Belarus, they just don't care. I lived 100 yards from Kampinos natural reserve near Warsaw, despite the fact being next to one of those 'lungs' the air quality was appalling. Greetings from Scotland

Seriously good stuff, thanks so much for sharing it all with us.

Thank's mate!

wow bison in europ, I only thought they were in the America

Great stuff. Love your videos

6:30 you mentioned Ukraine's culture was affected by mass tourism - I think this is only true for the central parts of Kiev and Lviv. I live in Kiev and if you move beyond the very center seeing tourists will be uncommon.

thanks for that video .. i had been visit minsk last year and i was in relationship with belarus woman too )) i agree with most of what you said .. in my opinion belarus will still out off tourism mass cause many of people as like people were in my tourism group think that belarus is boring !! many prefer Azerbaijan or turkey or Greece more or other countries .. i think what best think in that country its pure ..... regards from Baghdad ))

Why, I like Belarus? How many hours do you have for this answer? I absolutely love this country.😁

You are totally right in your five reasons why you like living in Belarus, all valid and honest. Great video by the way and look forward to more from you. On a separate note I guess the 63 thumbs down are from Irish Colleens! Just to add I think Ireland is a fantastic country and the Irish ladies are beautiful too - even that Mrs Brown is growing on me!

I couldn't agree more with you I have been coming to Belarus every year since 2001 and love the place we stay with friends who live about 500 meters from the Komarovski Rinok in Minsk. I have to agree that its a very safe place although you are not the only Irishman there I know a brother Liam who is also Irish and lives in MInsk.

I went few times to Belarus, I love this country.

Can’t believe that you missed the friendly Belarus girls waving behind you at the end 😂😂 A question for you regarding nature and in particular the lakes...with the fall-out from Chernobyl how are the lakes safe to swim in? Not a dig, but interesting to know. Thanks

Sorry to say, but as soon as a Belarusian lady hears that you're from abroad, she becomes as nice as you can possibly imagine. That's the way they are raised. Low self-esteem, raised as an accessory in a man's life, raised with the feeling of not being enough without a man, with the idea of being successful if there's a man from abroad next to her, etc. Or another scenario - they're too confident and you're nothing but a step in their life of looking for better and more. You can be a homeless buddy from NY, but as soon as she hears "NEW YORK" in her mind she's already holding a US flag (or a passport) and standing next to the Statue of Liberty, or shopping in Gucci on 5th Avenue, or chilling in LA, etc. She's obsessed with the idea of HER being in US, HER holding a "status" of an American wife, HER being so trendy and chic, HER being so international and speaking English, etc. In both scenarios they will be the worst hypocrites and pleasers in order to ''get'' you or make you like them in order to achieve their personal goals. Sure, it can be flattering, but it's simply fake.

I really enjoyed this video. Is English widely spoken in Belarus? I totally agree with you on the globalization crap that´s going on around us!

I'de move to Belaruse for the ladies. 😂

Ну и молодчун и красотун. Привет из Витебска. !

Belarus is on our bucket list to travel with our campervan

Good video bro. Keep it up 👍

YES !!!! A President's first priority is his country's citizens. SOLID !

I think every country should keeps it's unique culture. I do not like the idea of a EU system. I like different cultures. That is what is so interesting. Belarus I'd no exception. I love that it keeps it's identity alive. God bless them all. I hope to visit one day.

Love the architecture, as well.

The dacha are one of my favortie things in Belarus!

Welcome to India.. Please make a vlog

For me, the culture is #1.

Am in Belarus now for 10 days you absolutely right agree on all and your honestly 😂

Take away Politics and any country would be cool to live at.

Great video;,,l hear in news today in Dublin there are about 10 000 homeless people,- this most bee like a Paradise for you, -l been there self so l know..

Lady's , dacha and banya plus vodka and food makes this place very good !!!

Borsch does not exactly come from Ukraine. There simply are many varieties of it, one of them being Ukrainian.

Good video Brother from Ire. All good point's to look for in a homeland. Funny points > at the end of #2 culture,we can even hear beautiful Belarus chorus music playing in the background 👍🍻 WINNING! On # 1 > the Women > the 2 young ladies that smille and wave to the camera 👍😉 Winner winner chicken dinner! Speaking of chicken dinner > I've heard the cuisine is very very wonderful and delicious, not to mention very low cost. Thank you for your video SR. I thoroughly enjoyed it 🙂🍻

Thanks to Bald I found your channel. 👍🏻

I'm sold wish I was single and 25 again

The timing on those two girls to wawe at the camera is insane 😄

How do they take to an Irish man vs an American? My wife is from Minsk but I insist that strangers think I'm from Ireland or another English speaking place as not to be charged double at a market ( they assume I'm rich ) I'm not . I also get in credible rude stares and looks when somebody hears me speaking English.

Best video. Ever.

Agree, I visited Minsk 3 years ago and to the Countryside Park & villages. Saw the partizan parade.

I sincerely liked this video.

I like how he is honest about the lists, especially no.1😁 It convienced me that he is talking from his personal experience and not from some written materials on internet👍

If it was not for bald and bankrupt,I would not have been aware of your channel.Thank you for your insights on a country that the media spends no time on and its positive aspects.

No doubt. I find the features of eastern european women highly attractive too. Just something about their genetic disposition that makes them stand out among the rest.

Ну как сейчас живётся в Беларуси?

Jesus Christ your channel deserves way more subs. I'm here because of Bald

Thanks for your truth explanation. I got familiar about that nice country , culture and a girl friend that I have in Belgorod!

Sounds like a micro version of Canada, where I live.
