I am a Brit that has made Odesa my home. I have lived here for 8 years and am now a Ukrainian resident. I have to say your video is one of the very few that I have seen that totally nails what Odessa is about. Really nicely done.
@@Rich5131 I love living here, yes it is hot in the summer, definitely get an apartment with aircon. Winters can be extremely cold but not for long periods and the winters tend to be quite dry and without too much biting wind. -2C in London feels a lot less comfortable than -10C here. The culture is great, so many great bars and restaurants, al fresco in the summer and warm and cosy inside in the winter. You can see top class opera for $10 if that's your thing, plenty of cinemas including a few now showing films in English. Its a good city to live.
@@Rich5131 So many great restaurants although I have not been to Clouds. If you have not already, try some of the Georgian and Turkish restaurants. Some great food to be had

Thank you for opening Ukrainians' eyes to Ukraine. I mean you're showing lots of the advantages and disadvantages we have, where's room for improvement and what should we be proud of. Excellent job, please keep it up!
I'm a British Columbian, Ukraine born (Lviv, Lemberg, Lwow) visited Odesa many times when I was I child moved to Canada 25+ years ago, live now in U.S., returning to God's chosen and forever loved Vancouver, BC taking my daughter Canadian born and raised to Lviv and Odesa as soon as she graduates UBC. Absolutely spot on review! I barely recognize Odesa it's been so long and overdue to pay a visit! Sincerely, Thank you for such top notch straight to the point review!

@@jenspflug7473 Also wenn ich hier kurz mal einspringen darf, um die Frage zu beantworten: Als Ukrainerin, die in Deutschland lebt, kann ich sagen, dass jeweils beide Mentalitäten ihre Vor- und Nachteile haben. Wer Zwanglosigkeit Anstand vorzieht, dem geht es in der Ukraine wohl etwas besser. Einer der größten Unterschiede ist, dass in Deutschland ein Grundvertrauen zu anderen herrscht, wohingegen in der Ukraine Misstrauen zu anderen leider unverzichtbar ist.
@@kvm4830 Erstmal ein Kompliment für Ihr Deutsch (wenn ohne Übersetzer geschrieben😄) Als Deutscher, der in D aufgewachsen ist, kann ich sagen, dass das Grundvertrauen während meiner KInd-und Jugendzeit (die schon länger zurückliegt) nach meinem Empfinden deutlich ausgeprägter war. Nach 1990 ,Wiedervereinigung und Globalisierung, hat sich das langsam geändert. Grundvertrauen in einer Gesellschaft hat viel mit dem vorherrschenden Lebensstandard der Einzelnen zu tun. In Ländern mit geringem Lebensstandard gibt es typischerweise viel Korruption, persönliche Bereicherung durch Politiker etc., was zu Misstrauen führt. Zwanglosigkeit ist besonders für Deutsche nicht zu unterschätzen. In einem Land , dass so durchorganisiert und mit Verboten, teilweise jenseits jeglicher Vernunft, belegt ist (z.B. hat D das umfangreichste und komplizierteste Steuersystem in der Welt) ist Zwanglosigkeit, die zu einem freieren und selbstbestimmteren Leben führt, tatsächlich zu einem wertvollen Gut geworden. Analog zur Ukraine geht es in Russland, wo ich länger gelebt habe, ähnlich zu. Im Vergleich zu Deutschland habe ich mich viel freier und auch wohler gefühlt. Viele Deutsche, die niemals in solchen Ländern gelebt haben, wissen das überhaupt nicht zu schätzen. D besteht zu einem Großteil aus angepassten, risikoaversen Spießern, denen Sicherheitsdenken und Bausparverträge/Versicherungen/Riesterrente über alles geht. Und natürlich das neue Auto nicht zu vergessen. Menschliche Wärme, Offenheit.........Fehlanzeige. So kann man auch am Leben vorbeileben. Freue mich schon auf Kiev, das meine nächste Station sein wird.

Love the fact that Ukraine has become attractive for tourists lately. Odessa is my hometown, thank you so much for the video ! We are always happy to help and welcome foreigners here. Good luck 💕
Влюбилась в Одессу с первого взгляда. Побывав там, уже не забуду. Хочу туда переехать. Поэтому работаю за границей что бы накопить на квартиру. У меня выработался универсальный шуточный ответ на вопросы типу "чего ты хочешь?", " Что тебе купить?", "что тебе нужно?", "что тебе подарить?" - квартиру на Деребасовской 😁

@@popcorn1650 ждем вас в Одессе=) кстати у нас не только центр классный, есть клевые места в разных районах. Одесса никогда не будет самым обычным городом =)
Awesome video, thank you for your work. Living in Odesa for 3 years now, awesome city and experience. It would be great to meet you in Odesa one day. ;-)
I visit my girlfriend in Odessa every 2-3 months. The traffic and parking is terrible. They need to build a big parking garage in the city center. This will cure a lot of the congestion.
Terrific video - thanks. You've managed to capture what's special about the city, and about this very interesting moment the country now finds itself in. Keep it up!
I'm so happy I came across this video. I've always wanted to visit Odesa. My Grandmother has always taught me all of our Jewish side came from Odesa, to Elise Island before WW1. Ukraine is such a beautiful country 💙💛
Thanks for this kind and warm video about my native city. I'm right now planning to come back from London after 2 years in immigration, and video was really motivating.
When I watch you ,I say to myself this is the place i am going next then you put another one and i say to myself oh this is the one i do the other one latter :) I LOVE YOU VIDEO's
I am from Odessa and spend 18 years living there. In 2016 moved to EU, now temporary live in the US. Just wanna say that miss my city so much, it's just special for me. All this political and economical problems made me leave my motherland, just like millions of my fellow countrymen. Hope to come back permanently one day.
Once upon a time i was studying in beautiful Odessa , finished studying in 1994 , best ever memories . Thanks for your amazing video clip mate . Love from England xx
Enjoy your channel immensely. Went to Odessa in 2017 and I loved the place. I stayed in a hotel beside the Black Sea and walked to the city center and to the Arcadia via the Zdorovya Track. Your video takes me back there. I appreciate your commentary and insights.
Hi Peter! I'm an American living in Odessa, and I must say you did a great job capturing the feel of this beloved city and its unique personality and strength...you even showed some of the exact details that I myself love about this place. I appreciate your street-level view and interactions with locals. And you're right about the resurgence of youthful energy, remodeling and revitalizing what was left after communism...every year I see more changes. Come back sometime and do an in-depth video...you've just seen the tip of the iceberg! Odessa is a truly amazing place...because the people themselves are amazing! I also have a request. We often need good interpreters, and I was really impressed with both Denis and Serj (their English and their knowledge). Did you find them through a tour agency? Could you give me some way to contact them?
Im from Odessa and live in NYC now,miss it so much.When i use to live in Ukraine I have not seen how much unique and cultural is.I left Ukraine about 10 years and I can see from youre vlog how city have changed in good way.Cant wait to visit :)
It's mid-April. I just returned from a 2-week trip to Odessa (I'm from the US). I speak no Ukrainian or Russian (except plasibo) and few people I interacted with spoke any English... but I had my google translator for short exchanges. I rode public transportation a lot (about 20 cents per ride)... but probably no more than 10 or 15 different routes... there is so much more to see... and the busses and bus stops were always spotless... no trash and no graffiti. The people obviously care about their city. It was off-season for tourists so I felt very local... when I didn't have to talk. Spring had not yet started so the Countless trees and plants were all bare. I'm going back in late summer or early fall to see all the green. Even in the pre-Spring weather there were many, many people out and about. I visited a number of parks and there were always families with young and older children walking and playing together. Many mothers and fathers pushing baby carriages. It was of course during covid, so masks were required everywhere, but that will probably be part of our lives well into the future. Overall, I LOVED my time in Odessa and am anxious to return.
Odessa Ukraine is my second home in life. A place of beautiful and intelligent woman and great men I have made friends with. This video is the best I have ever seen of the place I truly love and appreciate. Very accurate. I enjoy seeing images of the places I have visited and know so well. BTW, I am a native of the USA and I find greater freedoms in Ukraine than the USA.
It is so beautiful and it is so full of life. You can definitely feel the new vibrant energy that is coming from the young generation. Very nicely made post . I didn't know much about Ukraine but from your posts I started loving it.
It’s the same in Poland at krakow and Warsaw both worlds one is the progress and the other one is a tons of roads and construction out of orders ! But I love eastern country ! Peoples have a open mind because they have have been closed so much years ! Thanks buddy for sharing ✌️✌️
Thank you so much for this video! Please welcome friends to our sunny and friendly city. Yes we have a lot of problems but every day we trying to be better. Love my city, love Ukraine, i love my life)
Through an ancestry site. A relative of mine, found out his grandmother born in Odessa, Ukraine. He had not idea. I started to watch some of your videos. Some are Great! 👏
i lived in Odessa for years, there are VERY few westerners who know Odessa as well a i do, I hosted the Clockface english club and know 1000's of friends there. Glad you made this vid
@xmilkygrapes Odesa in English sounds like Odeza (is not correct, is same to name Elysia, which sounds like Elyzia). Correct is Odessa (double S). In U.S small citys with name Odessa, wrote like OdeSSa. This is stupid reforms of Ukrainian government.
@@samuraiace454 This is a common theme between foreigners and ukranians...miscommunication.....and its greatest strength......you are exotic to each other.
Your videos are amazing! You pick out the most important details and display them in a very artistic way. I was hesitant about moving to Odessa, but now I have decided 😄

Thanks Devin, I'm glad you liked the video. I can tell Odessa has a special place in your heart.
What a great job, the photography, the editing, the feel of the city. I look forward to visiting Odessa.
Thanks Marc! I think you'll have a great time when you do.
My hometown! Love this video ❤️
Good coverage of the city. Never seen before. Keep up the good work
Одесса без песен не звучит . Ее нужно слышать . "Песен много есть в Одессе . Потому что моя Мама , вся в меня")
Oleg1626 Одесса -лучший город земли, а главное достояние- это одесситы!

@@Алиса-к8ы7ы Если жалкие 18 тысячи бомжей уехала из Одессы то ты думаешь что все Одесситы уехали?
It is so beautiful and it is so full of life. You can definitely feel the new vibrant energy that is coming from the young generation. Very nicely made post . I didn't know much about Ukraine but from your posts I started loving it.

Thanks for your visit to Ukraine.
Peter, I've lived in Odessa since 2001 -- this is one of the best videos on the city I've seen. Really nicely done! Thanks for putting it together.
То чувство когда ты с Одессы и смотришь на это всё каждый день))
Жиза.
Зато кайф) проблем в городе конечно много, но если так по честному и не кривя душой.... кайф быть одесситом)
ну конечно, жить в культурной столице страны это круто )
Best travel vlog on Odessa I've ever seen, Denis and Serj are definitely cool guides.
Погляди на Дюка со второго люка ))
что он делает падлюка
а Дюк то римлянин ))
Так люка уже давно нет, место , от куда смотреть на Дюка помнят только те, кому бабушка его в детстве показывала)))))))!!!

Очень клевый взгляд на любимый город!
Когда турков оккупантов вместе Сакашвили выведете из Одессы?
It’s the same in Poland at krakow and Warsaw both worlds one is the progress and the other one is a tons of roads and construction out of orders ! But I love eastern country ! Peoples have a open mind because they have have been closed so much years ! Thanks buddy for sharing ✌️✌️
Thank you so much for this video! Please welcome friends to our sunny and friendly city. Yes we have a lot of problems but every day we trying to be better. Love my city, love Ukraine, i love my life)
Through an ancestry site. A relative of mine, found out his grandmother born in Odessa, Ukraine. He had not idea. I started to watch some of your videos. Some are Great! 👏
i lived in Odessa for years, there are VERY few westerners who know Odessa as well a i do, I hosted the Clockface english club and know 1000's of friends there. Glad you made this vid
@xmilkygrapes Odesa in English sounds like Odeza (is not correct, is same to name Elysia, which sounds like Elyzia). Correct is Odessa (double S). In U.S small citys with name Odessa, wrote like OdeSSa.
This is stupid reforms of Ukrainian government.
@xmilkygrapes Odessa is not a russian variant, is global (worldwide) variant. Odessa from a greeks name "OdySSeus".
@xmilkygrapes ahhh. You don't understand anything what I wrote to you. I also live in Ukraine, in ODESSA city. Lol.
That's pretty cool!
@@samuraiace454 This is a common theme between foreigners and ukranians...miscommunication.....and its
greatest strength......you are exotic to each other.
Спасибо! Был в Одессе 2 года назад. Красивый город, но местами запущенный ( ты в видео это показал). Приятно было посмотреть и вспомнить Одессу!
Чекаємо у місті Дніпро
Мені здається що не треба
Тільки ні туди. Дніпро-дуже потворне місто, багато сміття та бомжів(Я сам знаю що я говорю я там живу)

Your videos are amazing! You pick out the most important details and display them in a very artistic way. I was hesitant about moving to Odessa, but now I have decided 😄
Дуже класне відео . Автор молодець 👍
