I live in North Dakota too. So beautiful and people are so friendly~

I love North Dakota
I'm shocked that someone from Bismarck has 153,484 subs on TH-cam.
Wiz Khalifa was born in North Dakota and has 10,000,000 subscribers on TH-cam and a hit song with 2.6 billion views.
Wiz from there?
Sameeeee
I know right Wilson brown
Josh Duhamel from Minot got a few followers too LOL. We're underestimated that is good, so we don't get too much asshole tourists, lol. I lived in Mc Lean county for a while, I miss it.
I just called my Grandma, thanked her and told her I love her.
Thanks for reminding me, Kristina. I need to do that more often.
No joke, after watching this video I called my grandpa, who lives in South Dakota, and chatted with him for a bit. He's my only living grandparent now, and you reminded me how important it is to tell the people we love that we DO love them, and never just assume they already know. Thanks. :)
ok
I’m from ND, I live in a small town the no one has probably ever heard of. It’s called Park River
matt daley I’ve been there I live In Grafton
My grandpa and grandma and s few other family members live in Park River. I visit there a few times a year too haha.
Born and raised! I love North Dakota! The food is the best! ❤️ from a small town in North Dakota! I live about 2 1/2 hrs away from Bismarck!
+sophienicole Dickinson
sophienicole I have been there. Glad its slowing down!
Where? Jamestown? I saw that large Buffalo there!
Jamestown is a hour and a half, Valley City on the other hand is an hour. My parents live there.
Nathan Faust I live in valley city
Love being a North Dakotan!
Right on Shana so do I. But I don't have a DL so it sucks having to walk and take the bus alot. Where do you live?
You’re blessed. Wonderful family and wise words. Never take family for granted. Thanks for sharing.
Hello, Kristina Homer. My name is Robert Dubisar, and I was born in Dickinson at St. Joseph's hospital. I have been living in Central Oregon for 40 years, so I am probably 20 years older than you. But, my heart still tugs very strongly for the badlands state. I was born in 1962, in December. I have relatives who hate North Dakota with a passion, but they don't know what their missing, either. It's also true that there are many people of a German background in the state. In your video, you touched on a number of things related to the German culture. Das ist wunderbar. That ist wonderful. The state of North Dakota has a way of keeping people humble.And, hopefully teach them not to forget where they came from.Kristina, you and your family are good people, no doubt. Du bist gut volks. You are good people. I grew up on a farm outside of Reeder, south of Dichinson an hour or so. I have many fond memories of the farm.I am a sentimental person. I get that from m,y mom. Her background was totally German. Her maiden name was Hettman. In all truthfulness, it should be spelt Hettmann. I am writing a lot of words, but I am hoping to get response from you. I miss the people and the state so much. If you want to respond, great. If not then ok.
Iv lived in Bismarck for my whole life and I’ve been in that abandoned house
All my grandmothers are gone now. You are right to cherish every moment with family. Great video
North Dakota is the most awesome state in the US! I am born and raised in North Dakota! Go North Dakota
Kevonna Isakson said no one ever, I lived there for a lil over and year and I would have never lived there had I not been making over 100k.......north dakota don't even have women, the guy to girl ratio was like 100 to 1
Um, no. I live here and theyre tons of girls here. Good ones too.
JACK WILLIAMS where in ND? Or did you just mean in general?
Abraham Reyna I just hate living here because everyone is stuck in the past. No one is here to accept that we have a future. (I've lived here for 13 years and going)
Kevonna Isakson South Dakota is the best
Your video made me cry, Kristina. The shot where you are walking with your grandma is precious. My grandma just passed away this summer, and even though I didn't get to see her often, I miss her so much. I'm glad that you are not taking your time with your grandparents for granted. Treasure it!
Im from ireland but would love too see the wide open spaces of ND one day.
Hi, ziganda. my name is Robert, was born in Dickinson, currently live in Central Oregon for 40 years, but remember North Dakota so well. If you can make a trip to the U.S., and go to North Dakota, you are in for a treat. There's not much about North Dakota that isn't wide open, but, I've always enjoyed the drive from Dickinson to Bismarck, or even Dickinson to Williston. Interstate 94 is the highway from Dickinson to Bismarck, and highway 22 takes you north from Dickinson to Williston. At any rate, those are just ideas.
Hope you get to go soon if you haven't already!
so sweet, and i'm starting to appreciate family more because i have now been a freshman in college for a month. But you are lucky to still have your grandparents in your life. I just have memories now
North Dakota is life😂. But I like to get out of the state every once in a while. And I'm only 14 😂😂
Carly Sue I hate North Dakota it boring and lots German white people are there
DJgamer did a German white person do something to you ? How sad.
Xx_DJ_xX
Should I pray for you?
@@flaco.antonio Sounds IoveIy!
I'm glad I'm not the only one that really loves and appreciates there grandparents ! I get all passionate and talkative when I even mention mine..but when I do my friends normally get awkward, it just makes me feel bad for them.
does anyone know wahpeton ND
Adam Hoopes me I went to a zoo there I live in fargo
that's awesome ...at least someone here has been there lol
I go there for zoo visits also,.
yes, my grandma lives there
The best place ever breh
this really means a lot kristina, i haven't seen my family in a little over three years because they live on the other side of the world. i always miss them, but like you said, we are so busy in our lives, i dont really take the time to think about them as often as i could, and now i really regret turning down the option of going to india this summer. . thanks for reminding all of us about how important family really is.
Ya, I was born and raised in Minot, North Dakota! We aren't all norweigians and germans, even if we have the largest scandanavian celebration in North America here! (which is coming up real soon) The HostFest! (pronounced whost fest). In fact there are a lot of Scottish people here too! In fact my family is from Scottland! Also, even I wouldn't try that "raw meat" I've never even heard of it!!!
Hi, China. My name is Robert. Born in Dickinson in 1962, and you talked briefly about you being Scottish. So you have just a wee bit of Scottish in you, aye? Do say. I couldn't resist that.
The best part about North Dakota is the community that the entire state has with one another. It’s such a small world and you pretty much know everyone you come in contact with in some way shape or form. I’ve met people that are my third cousins twice removed and people that are friends with my siblings and farmers that know my grandparents. It’s just such a loving place to live and even though we don’t have much here, we have family, and that’s all one can really ask for.
"It's tiger meat."
Me: o.O WHAT THE F--
"It's like, raw meat."
Me: *Sigh* oh, okay.
Kristina, I really wanted to say that I think you're family is adorable! It was really heartwarming seeing you around your family.
Screw being embarrassed about your parents, you just gotta live it up. Huge fan!

I'm Norwegian and from North Dakota
Most people in the northern parts are of Norwegian heritage
Same
North Dakota is the most Norwegian state percentage wise.
Kristina, my grandma died this summer and going to her home (the place where my mom grew up, a place I have always considered home despite having never lived there) for her funeral was really sad since it might be the last time I go there for a while. It's so awesome that you appreciate the time you have in North Dakota, with your grandma and your other relatives. This was a great video. Thanks for reminding me of home.
I like boring! It's beautiful!
I love to farm there.
We, my husband and I, have been all through the midwest on our way to Mount Rushmoore. We had our brand new Lincoln Towncar back then and I was always making sure it was detailed all along the way, and yes! There were a lot of grasshoppers! They were not easy to clean off the car, but it was done. We loved South Dakota and the people were amazing and warm hearted. God keep them all, happy, prosperous and healthy. The closest we came to North Dakota was in upper Minnesota.
Oh my god, the accent on your dad is so cool. It sounds a little similar to Irish weirdly enough
No ! wait, I got it. I got now. There's an episode of How I Met Your Mother featuring Marshall's family from Minnesota, and the way they talked was exactly like this. Wow pretty cool
Damn that really put a strain of me I couldn't figure it out for like until now why his accent sounded so familiar to me.
Good job buddy. Do you want a cookie?
That's how everyone talks here lol
What a lovely video! I've been thinking about this very idea lately, so the video was especially poignant. We do get busy, we do have things like college classes that take time. But we should never be too busy to let people who are dear to us know how much we love them. And it's especially important to tell people how much we appreciate the little things they do that they may think are insignificant--things like showing you photo albums and sharing good food. Thanks for a thoughtful video!
OK reply if you're from North Dakota and think the movie Fargo has it all wrong.
+Callie Miller nah
Has it right down to the T
The accent isn't even remotely correct
Yep
Callie M RIGHT!!! Shoulda called it Canada Eh. Lol
Fargo pride
@@kawaiifox606hd6 I know where you live now thx
Home is now ND (Grand Forks). Transplant from the Bay Area in Ca. Lived here almost 30 years. Love it!

This is such a touching video, this is why I love your channel. For me, Massachusetts is my home but now I'm in college in Iowa. So many people are like "Oh I'm sorry you're going to Iowa" but I really like it here and now have so much more appreciation for the Midwest!
its true thought our state gets picked on :P
Zaniac321
I have cousins in MN & MT. They ALL tell ND jokes-much like Norwegian jokes. At family reunions they told one ND joke after another for an hr...
I quit laughing after awhile cuz it was old after 5 minutes. They asked why I was SO quiet.
I asked them if they knew why ND was SO windy. No answer...
CUZ MT SUCKS AND MN BLOWS...
Joke time was over after that.
😉
Yes this may be true but we do have the advantage of being thickky nikkis not those skinny minnies who wake up at 3 a.m., go to the gym, eat their two almonds and a piece of cheese, if you are a skinny Minnie you get deported down to 2010 south dakota to get fed to the cattle because with all this cold winter at the moment you know we have to be all warm and dependant on ourselves~ uhh yeah so this is basically what was an inside joke between my friend and i now it is on a random girls comment section but anyway..
STAY WOKE
STAY GOOD
STAY FRESH
AND STAY *THICC*
@@conniepratt2039 yeah my family makes fun of us for saying longer o's and a's but leave alone my *NOT BORN OR RAISED* Texan cousins, aunt, and uncle who say "y'all and travel all the way home in their Texas edition fancy ass Yukons in their sparkly boots with the dog in the back so... idk why we are getting picked on *true story shisters*
I grew up and live in Fargo and our home is older so it’s got a big yard so each year we grow assorted fruits, berries, vegetables, and roots and greens among other things that we distribute to ourselves and our neighbors and close friends
Food in North Dakota is awful. I mean Victorian English boiled mush is almost better. North Dakota is void of any flavor. Fargo has some pockets, but they are expensive. Kroll's Diner is popular here. it is an insult to real diners. There is a reality disconnect here.
+Dee Donner Ramone NO, NO. How rude can you be??? You probably had ONE meal and didn't like it so you're blaming the whole entire state! EXCUSE ME, but there are SO MANY AMAZING FOODS. Sure, there going to be a crappy place here and there, LIKE EVERYWHERE!!!!! How would you feel if I went to your state, had one bad meal, and said all of your food is crap? I'm serious, EVERY SINGLE PLACE IN THE WORLD HAS BAD RESTRAUNT IDIOT!!! JUST BECAUSE ONE PLACE ISN'T AS GOOD, DOESN'T MEAN THAT EVERYTHING IS BAD!!!!!!!!!! People like you make me sick >:( Go back to you're nasty mcdonalds food, freak.
+Dee Donner Ramone I like ND food.
Some people have different opinions. A lot of the food in North Dakota is from countries like Sweden, Norway, And Germany. The state still has good food. But you might not have the same taste as others. So many people have different tastes in food or etc. But people their love those foods. And if you don't like something there doesn't mean it's awful to others.
Also don't forget people try so hard to make those dishes for you.
And some people might not agree with you on your point. You would have to say what is wrong with the food. Also I would put it like something like this. What's good about it and what's bad about it. You can't really just leave like that.
Anyways thank you for our time bye.
Dee Donner Ramone because we cook food with meat in it we have food from other countries instead of some knock off shit

Kristina, you just made me cry.
I'm from Canada, but I only ever lived there for ten months. Nobody here in the US understands how difficult it is to grow up away from the only place I can honestly call home, especially when people make fun of Canada.
Thank you for being someone who understands, Kristina.
I think this might be my favourite video you've ever made. I have a ridiculously close relationship with my grandparents, they're honestly my favourite people in the world. Your Grandma is adoreable. I love that you clearly adore her! :)
I love this video ! My Aunt Jan is from North Dakota and from her stories I pictured a place where there is so much ice and snow that you can't leave the house for months. You have shown the sunny side and made me want to go there.
so sweet, and i'm starting to appreciate family more because i have now been a freshman in college for a month. But you are lucky to still have your grandparents in your life. I just have memories now...And my mind goes to Kansas, but i never even think of North Dakota so that is probably saying something
This is soo true!! I don't mean to put a depressing spin on things but it's was my Nanny's funeral today and she was an incredible woman, luckily I got to see her regularly and I enjoyed spending time with her but I never bothered to find out more about her life before I was born like what she worked as or what my Grandpa was like. I would urge every-one to spend more time with their families cos it's to late to have regrets when they're gone! Thank-you @italktosnakes xx
I was born in Bismarck and my parents moved down here when I was 2! I have family in Beulah, Fargo, and Dickinson so there’s always lots of driving when I go up to visit.
This video totally resonated with me! I was born in Pierre, SD and moved away when I had just turned two. The Dakotas have a lot of problems, and people usually forget about them or make fun of them because they're isolated and conservative and they have small populations, but there's something really beautiful about the vastness of them, even the emptiness, and about the enormous hearts of the people who live there. I love going back to South Dakota.
I just spent 4 days with my 84 year old grandma.She has pretty bad dementia. I went to a baseball game with her and we were the only two members of my family who had a beer. I may never get to see her again, but I had such an amazing time. I'm glad that I'm not the only young person that understands the importance of family.
I got married at the weekend. My wife (it still feels a little odd to say that!) is from the US but we're living in the UK, so some of her family are staying here for another week, but a lot of them couldn't make it here.
I feel like it means a lot to us both to tell the ones who are here in person that we love them, and I look forward to returning to the USA so we can both share our love with the ones who couldn't be here.
This is such a great video Kristina =) I get to spend quite a lot of time with my family, because it is so small, but this did inspire me to take some more initiative myself, and hang out mith my grandparents more. It is always interesting to hear them talk about their youth and try to imagine what their life was like back then.
What an inspiring video! I've always wanted to visit North Dakota (and probably will on my great American road trip) and this has made me want to go even more! You're obviously close with your family and I love that you want to share it with the world - I wish more people were like this because FAMILY IS WONDERFUL! I look forward to more videos like this from you soon, probably one of my favorites that you've done!
This whole video was beautiful. It's always interesting to step outside and see the life of someone else's family and then it brings you back to appreciate your own family that much more.
My mom is from North Dakota and she has 12 other siblings and most of them still live there so when I go to visit it is just so much family and I love it. I like in Ga and its so different than ND. The weather there is phenomenal and I pick on my cousin's accents every time I visit. I'm glad you made this video. I don't know anyone else whose family is from there so I understand where you're coming from 100 %
I feel like that about where my grandparents and my uncle's family live (Cologne). We spent almost every weekend with them when I was a kid and visiting them brings back to many memories and I love my crazy family. I got back from a weekend in Cologne yesterday, it was my grandparents' golden wedding anniversary and it was wonderful :)
I was born in Georgia and except for 7 years in South Carolina that is where I have always lived. During the summers I would go stay with my grandparents in Iowa! It is so different from what I was used too and I love it up there. I have so many great memories and friends! I honestly wish I could live there all the time! Iowa will always have a part of my heart!
Born and raised in North Dakota. Driven over-the-road for a few years. Been in all the U.S. states except Maine New Hampshire Michigan and Florida. Will always live here.
I think I have always taken for granted the fact that my grandmothers live so close to me and that I get to see them so often. It must be hard to have family that far away, but I'm sure you make the most out of every chance you get to go to North Dakota. Your family seems wonderful, btw :)
I drove through ND via I-94 twice during a cross country drive.... it's surprisingly a beautiful state during the summer months. I honestly would not mind living there. The slower pace of life might not be all that exciting, it's refreshing.
Kristina, I live in North Dakota, Fargo to be exact. I graduated from High School in Fargo, Oal Grove High School, and from college in North Dakota too, Valleyn City State University. And I was in the North Dakota Centennial Company in Boot camp for joining the Navy in Summer or 1989. I love living in North Dakota, I love sports especilly football and North Dakota is home to the 5 times in a row National Champion BCS North Dakota State Bison. They got beat before the championship game this last football season, but they will start another championship run at the end of this coming football season. I actually went to NDSU for one semester and summer school and had a great time. But I graduated from VCSU. I was almost 8 years older then the VCSU President himself and am 4 years to the day older then one of my history professors at VCSU, she's from Wyoming and moved back before I graduated. Living in North Dakota is pretty good.
Definitely a reminder that a place is not just made from where it is, its history and what it contains, but that the people inside it are what makes somewhere special.
I'm from South Dakota and people always make fun of my state. I actually am really grateful that I grew up in such a down-to-earn, quaint, wholesome place. I always felt safe, had plenty of entertainment, and never felt deprived. Thanks for shedding some light on the greatness of the underapreciated Dakotas.
Very cool to have North Dakota recognized! I grew up there and my family still live there as well. I enjoyed your video Kristina!
Kristina, you are a awesome TH-camr, and showing how much you care about your family makes you all the more awesome :) Thanks for sharing with all of us this part of your life. You are a rare gem in how genuine you always act in your vids, so yeah...thanks :)
Such a sweet video and a great reminder of how important family is. Thank you for sharing, Kristina ^.^ I'm gonna go spend some quality time with my family now.
This video was really touching :)
I know exactly whet you mean when you were talking about how North Dakota feels like home though you've never lived there, i have the same feelings toward New York, where my whole family except me my mom and dad live.
Just wanted to let you know I enjoyed seeing your fam's hometown! :)
Brilliant video, so lovely to see a family still be so close emotionally even though you live miles apart. Last year I moved just over an hour away and I barely spoke to or saw my mum (although in the end I had to move back in April)
Thanks, Kristina, this video is amazing. It reminds me of Esther Day, but also reminds me that we should act like every day is Esther Day, because we never know how much or how little time we have left with them. I was retaught this in the past 11 months, in which time my Gran became sick, was diagnosed with pancreatic, and passed away.
I am in your same boat!! I was born in Minot and I moved away when I was 5 so I have family there but I don't remember it best. I just went there for a visit and wedding and I'm pretty sure I met your Grandma!!! She is pretty famous for those Carmel rolls!!
Kristine, there is this festival in Louisiana called the Robert's Cove Germanfest. I sing with a choir or the elderly and my mom...you are not the only one!
Great video, it’s nice to see something so positive about ND & family.
This was so nice. It really touched my heart. You have such a knack for opening up and making it special and personal but also relatable. Thank you for this. I love it.
Your videos are like professional studies into your life.
It's really impressive... like this could totally be an A+ film class project.
It's has an important message, it's heart warming, it's funny, and it's enjoyable to watch.
What you're doing is so important.
Please continue! :)
You always do videos that seem to connect with me on a very personal level, not sure how! You're such an amazing person Kristina! I wish my life was just a little bit like yours.
I've only ever lived in one place until Saturday in which I moved to Bangor in Wales for Uni. Wales has always felt like home to me, as soon as I cross the Welsh border I always feel more relaxed. I think it's all the mountains and greenery :)
This is a great video. I too was born in Bismarck and I spent about 2/3 of my life there. I live in northern Minnesota now but get back to Bismarck every chance I get.
I love watching your videos. You always have one or two lines that really grab my attention, and make me think more about it. I LOVE that about your videos!
ND is where I call home because I kinda sorta live there. It's an amazing place, it really is! It may be small and we may talk funny but the people hre are some of the most genuine people in the world. I am proud to be a Norff DA-ko-tan!
I loved reading about ND in your bog but its so nice to see a Vlog on it. Now i can put faces to names, and everything. Your family is so lucky to have you Kristina and your so lucky to have them.
I love theses kinda of videos from you.
I'm from Saskatchewan. Which is directly north of North Dakota. We are very similar that we just have miles and miles of farm. I'm not actually around farms much though, because I live in the city, but still. Nobody's ever heard of us, and the only time we're in movies or anything is when they want some weird foreign place to use as a name. But I love it here. Lots of space.
And Kristina, you're almost as scared of grasshoppers as my mom is.
I saw this video and my thought was 'Did she go to Grand Forks?'
Great place for kids to live, my friends and I love it so much. North Dakota does get picked on, but it really is a great place.
Thank you for this. The oil boom really drug ND through the mud and this truly hits home about my home.
I get to see my parents and relatives about three times a year (four this year because they are coming up to see me for my wedding -- in 19 days!) and I so know what you mean about taking time to see the people and places that you miss and love so much. This video warmed my heart, made me miss the people I loved and made me excited to see them again soon. Thank you, this means a lot to lots of people. :)
This made me really happy. We so often forget how important family is, and how important it is to just slow down and enjoy life. Thanks for the reminder. :) Oh and thanks for continuing to wear your Esther bracelet, you have no idea how happy it makes me.
You are just the coolest girl and you have such a wonderful family - not everyone is so lucky that way. Many of us are all alone in this world. Im so happy you all love each other so much!
Another place I loved. The Minneapolis Zoo was a big hit with us and the Mall of America too. God bless you and your family, for they all look like they are the best people in the world. We, my husband and I come from good stock as well.
I feel exactly the same when I go and visit the tiny little village in Scotland where my parents grew up even though I only lived there for six months before we moved.
You speak so well in these, reminds me of elmify. You both really know how to express yourselves through words.
kristina i totally know what you mean about a place feeling like home, even when you've never lived there... it's minnesota for me, specifically my grandparents' farm, even though we only visit for a week every couple of years. but i LOVE it there, it feels more like home than the chicago suburbs and i've lived here my whole life.
North Dakota reminds me a lot of where my brother lives with his family in Alberta. They love to go exploring old abandoned houses and farmsteads.
The clip of you walking with your grandma is adorable.
Also your folks.
Also most of this video.
Home for me in north Dakota also. I grew up in Beulah. Which is a few miles away from Bismarck. I haven't been there for seven years, and this video almost brought me to tears because I miss North Dakota so much. I now live in South Dakota which isn't as awesome.
My home is California. I was born in Los Angeles but ever since I was in first grade I've lived in this tiny northern California subub. I know that suburbs get picked on all the time and I even find myself despising some parts of suburban life but it's my home and I love it none the less.
Love this place because it's the place I've been in for FOREVER. Love it here. Did anyone else know Josh Duhamel came from ND? And those old houses that were in the video... I like going out to the middle of nowhere and checking those out. I would go inside but I don't because they could collapse at any moment. My favorite thing about ND? The small towns. Like Driscoll, ND. That place is just a road straight through the town. Very difficult to get lost.
aww, this is so sweet! i'm lucky enough to have a lot of my family living nearby so i'm never very far from them, but even so, there's family i've never even met who still live back in iran :( someday i'll get to see them!
Aww Kristina this is such a lovely video. Thanks so much for sharing it with us.
Hey, I'm from Grand Forks! Lived there 'til I graduated high school and moved out of state for college....still go back for Thanksgiving and Christmas....it's always good to go back to North Dakota! Real nice, down-to-earth people...not at all like the East Coasters!
I have only been to North Dakota once (to go to the world premiere of a symphony, believe it or not), and I loved it. Fargo is a cool university town, and most of the state is just beautiful.
I love, love, love this video. I live in California and all my family lives in Vancouver (where I'm from), Northern Ontario, or somewhere in the UK or Ireland, so I almost never see my extended family. I really appreciate the difficulties of visiting family, but I agree. There are few things more important in this world than making time for the people we love.
@Throrindor You're welcome!
This video made me smile so much! Thank you for uploading this video Kristina!
This was a pretty fantastic video. Interesting to get to see a different side of you than we usually see. And your cousin's son is SO freaking adorable.
I know how you feel about North Dakota, because that's how I feel about New York even though I wasn't born there. I moved here when I was 3 and it's been my home ever since. People don't realize just how beautiful this state can be. We're not all cities like some think we are, we have the Catskills, the Niagara Falls, the Finger Lakes, Lake Erie, the Appalachian mountains and SO much more! You won't believe the beauty you can find here if you just take the time to look
This resonated so much with me, because my family is so much like this - photo albums, stories, weird food (my family members are the pickiest eaters in the world - salad is bacon and cheese and croutons...yep).
