That little old lady wouldn’t stop talking because it probably has been a lifetime since being able to show off her cherished town to someone who cares. Thank you for caring Bald!
She was just happy to tell her story to someone that would listen. .....God bless that lady and her family. .....and we have clowns in America saying they've been oppressed. ....gtfoh
@@trentdawg2832 lol what? So because someone in another country is worse off than some poor people in America, it means they're pussies or something? It's not a contest, people can still be poor in a 1st world country and it isn't negated due to people who are worse off.
* The lady that doesn't stop talking is understandable, imagine that nobody shows any interest because they already used to see a lot of times and then one day you show up from UK with a big interest and of course she'll want to share her whole life 🙂
@@JaYaKaAzZ1 O sh!t really? That's awesome 😳 I like when he's interactint with people and of course putting subtitles but what I don't like it that sometimes he cuts off people in the middle of conversation to tell us, that give me "UK politeness my @ss 😁" vibes, but of course we get used to it 🙂
And her father's. And her grandfather's. And her grandgrandfather's. And her daughter's. And her ancestors' in old Ukraine. And that time when Petya was chased by a tiger. And...
"Forgive us please that we are such a poor country" man, that lady was so adorable and lovely, I felt so sad on how she said that, but listening to her bringing the upsides of their people as soulful is just heartwarming
Aww this woman who apologised for her country being so poor almost broke my heart. If life has taught me one thing, dear Babushka, it is that people with little money have the biggest hearts!
People at Hotel: "Oh, a guy with a camera. Wow, he'll put this on his channel and this will be great for our business!" Bald: "WORST HOTEL IN ALL OF KYRGZSTAN"
Bald and Bankrupt remembers me the guy from history channel that says "aliens" in every sentence, the difference here is "soviets". Blablabla soviets... Blablabla soviets... I love you bald and bankrupt.
Wow Mr. Bald. I love all of your Soviet videos. Especially the Soviet videos. It's good that you are back in Soviet country 😍👌 So much to see and still do much to discover. Like. Mexico was fun but already discovered. Next time go to the north of Russia and visit Soviet Murmansk 🇷🇺 please
I think the older women that was a “Talker” may have been lonely..if i were there and could speak and understand Russian i probably would’ve invited her to have a bite to eat and a coffee just to listen to her stories of old soviet times.
@@FlourescentPotato just because you wouldn't doesn't mean someone else wouldn't. Like my old babushka used to say 'if you have nothing nice to say, shut the fuck up'.
Wow. My mom was Ukrainian, and she had the same green eyes and perfect teeth like the lady you spoke with. Mom has since passed, but I really wished she could have seen your vlog. She would have loved all the locations you show. We used to have what were called "Travelogs," where people would take home-style movies on 8mm film and show them at the local Kiwanis Club. You always give me that beautiful nostalgia - and some hysterically funny moments. Love your channel!
MR.BALD I am a 30 year old guy living in America, Born in the USSR in Uzbekistan, tashkent. I have never been back but my dad has friends out there and they would love to host you and I if you're up for it. For a Uzbekistan soviet Trip! Please let me know if interested and we can get this vlog done. We will have a blast and I'd love for you to show me how you make these amazing vlogs!
It burns me inside out to hear that woman _apologizing_ for not having anything to show. This was not her battle, it was not her responsibility yet she remains proud..I hear the sorrow in her voice, she's stuck there. Sending all my love from the UK.
@@shanginadildo You're gonna mope about a bloody spelling mistake. Have you got nothing better to do. Christ. Was going to thank you for pointing it out but you can sod off back to your cave now, cheers.
Can you really blame the older lady for wanting to talk to Bald so much, imagine you NEVER see tourists, and then one day handsome cultured and kind bald steps in and asks all sorts of interesting questions, bless her lol
“Life's not about how hard of a hit you can give... it's about how many you can take, and still keep moving forward.” - sorry for the Rocky Balboa quote, but it's true :-) You'll get through it, it's just temporary obstacle :-)
I feel you. Currently 3 months late on rent, probably going to get booted finally on the 1st of December. This pandemic has ruined me and probably for many years to come. Hope you stay positive
Bald really does live his best life, I was never really interested in to the soviets before I started watching you over a year ago but it’s just so interesting seeing all these countries. Don’t stop what your doing Mr bald no matter what country, what place you always make it interesting and always a joy to watch.
@@ChrisMustList Exactly. It can be lonely and troubling going far across the world on your own. Yet Bald takes it all in his stride, he has a positive attitude.
yeah, now it would sound strange if a person decides to move to kyrgyzstan from ukraine, nowadays these countries have so many differences. i guess, the reason why people moved from russia and ukraine then was war, not totally sure why. but it's just it was easier to move throughout soviet union then
@@ЯнНорвуд Ukrainians were EXILED there. Since the times of Catherine the second. The same way like Taras Shevchenko was exiled to Kazakhstan. Many of them settled there for the whole life and became locals. Noone would move from Ukraine into Kyrgyzstan by their own will. Of course there were also Ukrainians who were sent to different far regions of USSR after graduation from Universities. They were appointed by government to different high-skilled jobs to teach local people. It was a common practice to mix population from different regions. A lot of Ukrainians were also sent to Russian far East. Many families in irkutsk and vladivistok have Ukrainian heritage
I can't imagine living there for 20 years and not wanting to visit those mountains. Then again I spend 16 hours a day inside and often make excuses not to go food shopping. Also love that club worker. So much passion and interest in sharing.
She has probably never gone to the mountains because there's nothing there. Those mountains are not like the Alps or the Rocky Mountains in North America where there are world class resorts to stay at.
That's good old Ben! Bald is not about sombreros in Mexico and ridding bikes in Prague, Bald is about drinking samagon with babushkas in small ex-soviet forgotten villages with rusty soviet statues....welcome back Ben!
Bald, as much as we like Harald and Simon these right here are your golden moments. Just watching you out there exploring the wild world is exactly what we signed up for. Please keep up with this type of content. Much love!
Here Bald knows how to throw some light into history. The warmth of his soul makes those Soviet old things come alive for a moment. Bald can open the Gate of Time into that Soviet era. Baldr and Simon can not do that, though they are nice guys.
As a fan pf B+B I have to say the videos with him and the other guys in a Mexican cafe made me cringe. But when he's in a former USSR cafe on his own you get a much more authentic feel to the place.
There is nothing to forgive for being financially poor. At times, those are some of the richest people on this planet and with her I think you struck gold. Wonderful woman.
I'm sure she talked even more than we were shown here, but honestly, I'd listen to a full video of people like her. I hope Bald doesn't cut these experiences off in the future and really takes time to show them and let these people speak. He has a real chance to give a voice to people who never would otherwise have one. She made me cry with how sweet she was.
@@r0ckbass I agree...I would also like to hear more from her, much more... she is knowledgeable...and soulful. What's the use of driving past endless structures...entering hotels...eating...if you can't listen to a special person's knowledge. She almost needs a seperate little video on her own.
Abandoned ppl at the abandoned places are happy to be heard at least by someone. Their life stories. Because there is at least someone who interested of it even for the short time. It makes me sad. But it's amazing how mr. Bald feels fine with the processes. And amazing balancing on the verge of empathy and sarcasm. Thanks for the vlog.
Baldman,, you have 2.3 million for THIS REASON,, you're the best Tour Guide ever , with much charisma,luv these Soviet explorations, eye openers to many cultures, cheers mate.
You've inspired a lot of normal people, young to old, to spark interest to visit these countries, learn these languages, and see how the people from all around the world are not how America portrays them (or lack thereof) or how America as it's own country is.

Hahaha 😂,those guys love Mc Donals .As I travel round the 85 regions of Russia 🇷🇺 and I hope to meet bald in a corner some where 😂.Likable lad indeed .
* Bald don't forget why we fall in love with you videos, we love your your videos not that you want to cut your videos often just to show "some interesting" but for raw videos that give us the feeling of traveling with you. So take the camera not for showing something to youtube, but take camera as "us" traveling with you, we want to see boring, soviet, interesting footage 🙂
Aren't we all glad, the Bald is back in his "home" ? Get ready for the soviet road, soviet street, soviet sink in a soviet bathroom, soviet bed in a soviet room in a soviet hotel, soviet stuff in an abandoned soviet building, soviet trees in a soviet forest, and all things soviet. I so love his soviet videos, am so glad he's back!
Finally Bald is back doing interesting videos and teaching us about the friendlynes of our fellow human beings. This really made my day, many thanks for your positive attitude. Best regards from Sweden.
We love you Bald. Thank you for your adventures. It breaks my heart that any group of people have to be impoverished and/or suffer in any way. My heart goes out to everyone on Earth.
Mr. Bald, this has been a very difficult year for all of us. Your videos take me out of this quarantine nightmare depression and out into the world that I one day wish to explore. I saw a new Bald and Bankrupt video was posted and I instantly felt less depressed, thank you! Cheers from locked down Toronto!
Really quiet depressing for that people who leaves in extremely in financial crisis government is so corrupt and we don't even realised why poverty has a huge population.
Back to the land he loves most. I must say I enjoyed the Mexican adventure. Doing well getting around with all these travel restrictions. Love this guy very knowledgeable on what he vloggs I notice its I right hand drive car
Wow you westerners truly have it worse than everyone in the world, it's amazing! There is literally no video showing the horrible conditions in some forgotten part of the world without some privileged smug american complaining that in America it is even worse.
dont worry, the REAL lockdowns havent even started, thanks to all you idiots that have complied with the lie thus far, whats coming will be much worse, and you wont be seeing bald in the near future at all.
"Got a couple of beds, think I'll just be using one." Come on Bald, we all know you're gonna push them together and invite one of those babushkas over.
Thanks Bald. Your adventures are a critical part of my survival of covid Cabin fever/depression. I think it is a great contribution to bring more people aware of how thousands of good people live out happy lives on the most simplest of supplies and services. In a way I envy them.
My wife is Kyrgyz so spent a lot of time there! Nice to see the country in your channel! The nature there is just breathtaking! Well worth exploring. The mountain drives are epic! Man don’t just stick to shorpo! Try Manti (dumplings) Plov (fried rice) besh barmak (soup and noodle) and they also do shashliik! Enjoy the trip, look forward to more videos of the journey. Enjoy
It is really remarkable that people really have *nothing* there, and they are still so very friendly and positive. It is really charming actually. Happy to see you back in the former Soviet countries :)
When I was deployed to Afghanistan, the girls in the beauty shop were from Kyrgyzstan. Random comment, I know, but they were very nice, and the bit of peace and quiet while getting a hair wash/cut, was something I'll never forget- the quiet, wooden building, the warm winter sun making the room warm, the sound of the hairdressers voices as they chatted, the warm water...
@@eily_b lol, where are you? That's funny. A lot of places in the States, it's the phrase for a hair salon (I couldn't think of that one when I was commenting)- just hair, nails, pedicures, etc nothing else!! Lol... :) Cheers
All these ex-soviet small villages really open my eyes about how big the world is, like they're exist. I like when Mr. Bald go to some small random unknow villages like they're real!!!!
It's amazing that even all the way across the world in such a different culture people still interact with each other just the same way. We're all the same and if more people could recognize that and have empathy the world would be a much better place.
LOL. The woman at the club be like I'm going to tell all the girls in the village I talk to a handsome bald English vistor. It will be the hottest gossip in the town.
The Ukrainian lady in her community club was so sweet. Those people had decades of suffering, thanks to the USSR, especially Stalin. It was really touching when she was apologizing for their poverty. Yes, she was a talker, she reminded me of my mom! You could be walking a block away and still hear her talking to you. 💐
As a Kyrgyz I could say that as much as I hate communism Kyrgyzstan actually had its greatest days during Soviet Union. We used to be just Nomads roaming around mountains and velds then Russian Empire showed up and started their colonial campaign which caused genocide of our nation but then Great October Socialist Revolution occurred which completely changed our course of events. Since our nation back then was primitive and most of them lived in yurts we didn't have any infrastructure let alone a city. So under soviet regime government exiled a lot of people from all around USSR to help us build our country. Our lands were young and not exploited for resources so it was in priority to treat our nation well. Kyrgystan is independent and where it is now thanks to USSR. But it doesn't change the fact of them committing horrible crimes against other soviet countries. Our country now its poor because we couldn't sustain every institutions and infrastructure that was developed throughout these years since all orders used to come from Moscow and when USSR collapsed our country became pretty much Anarcho-capitalistic country and it is to this day, roughly speaking.
@@doublejacketjimmy391 I was actually referring specifically to Ukranians, who were starved, exiled and massacred. I do understand your point, though. It seems that the post-Soviet countries were left with corrupt governments and few of their own resources..
Welcome back!! I love to follow you with a Google Earth and research all the fascinating places you go but what I treasure most are your interactions with everyday people all full of loving and soulful life pleased to show you their world. Thank you, Mr. Bald, for expanding our world horizons!
Fun fact...I lived here in Bishkek for 3 months during my US military days in 2010. I have those very mountains in many videos. I even white water rafted there, ate really good food in the more busy towns and partied my ass off every night. Really good memories.

Getting close to a million views pretty soon.

Bald: “There’s no McDonald’s here”
*Simon Wilson has left the chat*
Im good mate,cheers mate
hahaha Simon Weston would starve on this trip
"Ah a McDonald's! What a guy!"
Hahaha 😂,those guys love Mc Donals .As I travel round the 85 regions of Russia 🇷🇺 and I hope to meet bald in a corner some where 😂.Likable lad indeed .
I was going to write this 😂
There are travel channels that show you flashy expencive hotels, luxury baths, posh night life. And here you'll find how world really looks like.
'forgive us please that we are such a poor country' - that really choked me up 😔
My favorite part of these videos is listening to the stories of complete strangers he comes across.
Easily the best part of these videos
My favorite is how out of the ruins, the life springs out with charm, humor, sadness, happiness...
Loving hearing the residents stories. These are stories you'll never hear elsewhere
wonder how these people in the small little villages would feel if they knew millions of foreigners would be watching them
bald has become a minor celebrity in some of the places hes visited
Im a simple swede, i here the name Poltava, i shiver
* Bald don't forget why we fall in love with you videos, we love your your videos not that you want to cut your videos often just to show "some interesting" but for raw videos that give us the feeling of traveling with you. So take the camera not for showing something to youtube, but take camera as "us" traveling with you, we want to see boring, soviet, interesting footage 🙂
I agree. I would watch even a live broadcast from the Soviet villages or cities.
Agree with you!!!
Aren't we all glad, the Bald is back in his "home" ? Get ready for the soviet road, soviet street, soviet sink in a soviet bathroom, soviet bed in a soviet room in a soviet hotel, soviet stuff in an abandoned soviet building, soviet trees in a soviet forest, and all things soviet. I so love his soviet videos, am so glad he's back!
When I think of Kyrgyzstan, I think of VICE's thing about bride kidnappings. Thank for showing us that Kyrgyzstan is more than just that
Vice is mostly leftist propaganda
@@carnage3343 They used to do some decent documents in the past
There is no bride kidnapping
@@erturtemirbaev5207 we know
@@warwickeng5491 They still do, just ignore the dumb shit
Oh she's gold. I'd follow someone new around, chatting if I lived there, the poor darling probably sees the same few people all the time.
A lady apologized for corrupt government robbing people who eventually live in poverty
The sad sight of this just makes me cry. These poor people did not deserve this. Hopefully one day other countries start to leak into this nation.
Finally Bald is back doing interesting videos and teaching us about the friendlynes of our fellow human beings. This really made my day, many thanks for your positive attitude.
Best regards from Sweden.
We love you Bald. Thank you for your adventures. It breaks my heart that any group of people have to be impoverished and/or suffer in any way. My heart goes out to everyone on Earth.
Mr. Bald, this has been a very difficult year for all of us. Your videos take me out of this quarantine nightmare depression and out into the world that I one day wish to explore. I saw a new Bald and Bankrupt video was posted and I instantly felt less depressed, thank you! Cheers from locked down Toronto!
Things wont get better, the new world order is here. Get over it
@@BallerDennisND Thanks I feel much better now, keep spreading the joy

I wonder what the budget hotel in town is like.
A soviet staple
Gabriel, you are here man, I watch your Turkish videos, they are excellent. Bald should not photograph these houses. Maybe some witches live in it.
Some newspaper to sleep on and a pot to shit in
The room at 19:28
You won’t have luxury and budget hotels there
There is no need for regular tv channels when you have stuff like this! Great stuff!
Agreed, why would anyone nowadays prefer tv over youtube, i dont get it.
tv is programming; the internet is a chance out. censorship and the promotion of authority blocks the way.
Really quiet depressing for that people who leaves in extremely in financial crisis government is so corrupt and we don't even realised why poverty has a huge population.
Best channel on TH-cam.
For sure!
Yes sir👍
Omg I can't believe, that's my hometown... So emotional... Thank you
classic bald and bankrupt content here. old soviet architecture, chatting with the locals, a bit of history and great banter.
unknown local food
Dont forget the spy mission
I will never complain about my life again.
YESSSSS welcome back 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Back to the land he loves most. I must say I enjoyed the Mexican adventure. Doing well getting around with all these travel restrictions. Love this guy very knowledgeable on what he vloggs I notice its I right hand drive car
Soviet Bald is the best Bald.
@@lefroy1 most definitely
Same
Kids watch Dora the explorer
Men watch Bald the explorer

Legends watch both...
I've stayed in hotels that were nearly as sketchy as that and they still charged $40-80 USD.
The lady at the club was so passionate about her home!
@John Volken The one I'm thinking of was in Ohio. xD
Lol
@@ASHERUISE Is Ohio a country? I guess it's another nonfamous Soviet country.
@@drgarad Ah yes, remember the famous soviet palace of Jake Paulevich Paul
Wow you westerners truly have it worse than everyone in the world, it's amazing! There is literally no video showing the horrible conditions in some forgotten part of the world without some privileged smug american complaining that in America it is even worse.
A small addendum: the Ukrainian woman said that in the old days there were swamps and even tigers at Poltavka. BTW, my compliments on your Russian.
All the world is stopped due to a pandemic & suddenly this guy shows up in effing KYRGYSTAN!!
Body double.
@@petfrill so what you act like Kyrgstan has 20.000 cases per day instead of the UK. He is safer there.
dont worry, the REAL lockdowns havent even started, thanks to all you idiots that have complied with the lie thus far, whats coming will be much worse, and you wont be seeing bald in the near future at all.
Can't you spell? You forgot the "Z", obviously (sarcasm!)
What's a kryrscztan? :-)
Just when I was losing all sanity, Benjamin comes up with the goods.
Ah Kyrygyzstan, we're one step closer to Bald in Turkmenistan
I really want him to see Ashgabat. Its really beautiful....
@@nono-yx5oc it's also empty

Turkmenistan would be far more interesting 💙💛
Oh yes we need Bald in North Korea Light :D
I feel sad for the abandoned building, imagine how nice it was
@diva marie: That's a profound insight -- one can devote an entire lifetime to exploring its depths . . .

I wanna see bald do a tour of england . That'd be so weird
Not Soviet enough... Yet!
Full of spice heads chavs.
@Madeline McCann maybe with a pork sword, he does live in Brighton
Yeah but only speak russian while doing it 👍🏻
'And down this side street we have a spice head shagging his tent'
"Got a couple of beds, think I'll just be using one."
Come on Bald, we all know you're gonna push them together and invite one of those babushkas over.
Legend has it he doesn’t need to. He can reach her across the room just fine
Thanks Bald. Your adventures are a critical part of my survival of covid Cabin fever/depression. I think it is a great contribution to bring more people aware of how thousands of good people live out happy lives on the most simplest of supplies and services. In a way I envy them.
When they tell you the world is overpopulated, just remember the Russian countryside
I just destroyed my liver by taking a shot every time he says "Soviet".
Should have stuck to cannabis. You woulda just fell a sleep and wool up feeling pretty good lol. 😎
P.s. yes I know it was a joke.
3 times in the first minute alone 😂
Jesus how many times can this joke be recycled! Come on try to be original!
😂
RIP your Soviet liver 😢.
My wife is Kyrgyz so spent a lot of time there! Nice to see the country in your channel! The nature there is just breathtaking! Well worth exploring. The mountain drives are epic! Man don’t just stick to shorpo! Try Manti (dumplings) Plov (fried rice) besh barmak (soup and noodle) and they also do shashliik! Enjoy the trip, look forward to more videos of the journey. Enjoy
It is really remarkable that people really have *nothing* there, and they are still so very friendly and positive. It is really charming actually.
Happy to see you back in the former Soviet countries :)
They always say if you have low expectations then you live a happier life. Sometimes too much can make you unhappy in the long term.
She was a very lovely lady, how sweet of her to show him around and share her price! ☺️
When I was deployed to Afghanistan, the girls in the beauty shop were from Kyrgyzstan. Random comment, I know, but they were very nice, and the bit of peace and quiet while getting a hair wash/cut, was something I'll never forget- the quiet, wooden building, the warm winter sun making the room warm, the sound of the hairdressers voices as they chatted, the warm water...
Oh, first I thought "beauty shop" was just a euphemism for brothel. 😁
@@eily_b You're not alone... :D
@@eily_b lol, where are you? That's funny. A lot of places in the States, it's the phrase for a hair salon (I couldn't think of that one when I was commenting)- just hair, nails, pedicures, etc nothing else!! Lol... :) Cheers
@@SaturnusDK I'm so naive...I immediately got beauty salon and not another thing at all :)
@@eily_b I think I put it in quotations, because the normal words seemed pretty extravagant for what it was, lol. Maybe I'll remove them!! 🙄😳🤭🤣
All these ex-soviet small villages really open my eyes about how big the world is, like they're exist. I like when Mr. Bald go to some small random unknow villages like they're real!!!!
Menarik sekali
It's amazing that even all the way across the world in such a different culture people still interact with each other just the same way. We're all the same and if more people could recognize that and have empathy the world would be a much better place.
bro that cat flipped over like paper LMAO
time stamp?

Yeah it did. Corpse was dried up
didn’t expect that LOL
Hahaha.. That's funny
It’s Ironic how many “eternal” flames he has seen that are no longer lit
He's bought a new hoody with the TH-cam money
That's unusual for him, he must be swimming in money
it was probably a gift harold says he's notoriously cheap
Its just a sweater
Please never stop making these videos. We’re about the same age & I will still watch until I’m 100 if you keep going.
This is the Soviet content we want
sure, we want to see that!
LOL. The woman at the club be like I'm going to tell all the girls in the village I talk to a handsome bald English vistor. It will be the hottest gossip in the town.
I think Bald got used to Harald’s and Simon’s fancy McDonald’s food life😂
I like when he has Alina in his video for some reason
@@richardc9634 those were the days 😩
Bald is soviet The ace he can call home there he belongs
@@richardc9634 "some reason"
I wouldn't call "McDonald's" fancy
Literally nobody has shown an interest in this Ukreanean woman's life for 37 years, she has much to tell
Nothing better than watching old Bald videos, and getting a notification of a new upload :)
Especially when it is Soviet! 😄
The Ukrainian lady in her community club was so sweet. Those people had decades of suffering, thanks to the USSR, especially Stalin. It was really touching when she was apologizing for their poverty. Yes, she was a talker, she reminded me of my mom! You could be walking a block away and still hear her talking to you. 💐
Actually poverty started after the USSR. In Soviet times things were much better, as she actually said
As a Kyrgyz I could say that as much as I hate communism Kyrgyzstan actually had its greatest days during Soviet Union. We used to be just Nomads roaming around mountains and velds then Russian Empire showed up and started their colonial campaign which caused genocide of our nation but then Great October Socialist Revolution occurred which completely changed our course of events. Since our nation back then was primitive and most of them lived in yurts we didn't have any infrastructure let alone a city. So under soviet regime government exiled a lot of people from all around USSR to help us build our country. Our lands were young and not exploited for resources so it was in priority to treat our nation well. Kyrgystan is independent and where it is now thanks to USSR. But it doesn't change the fact of them committing horrible crimes against other soviet countries. Our country now its poor because we couldn't sustain every institutions and infrastructure that was developed throughout these years since all orders used to come from Moscow and when USSR collapsed our country became pretty much
Anarcho-capitalistic country and it is to this day, roughly speaking.
@@doublejacketjimmy391 I was actually referring specifically to Ukranians, who were starved, exiled and massacred. I do understand your point, though. It seems that the post-Soviet countries were left with corrupt governments and few of their own resources..
Life in Central Asia was better under communism and most Central Asians didn't want to leave the USSR
In another video a Russian woman in Kyrgyzstan said: "We hafld everything under communism, the village shop was full, Russia helped us very much"
5:00 I swear I thought he would bump into a random dude in the abandoned house taking a dump
@Sergio Martelli that would make him a TH-cam legend worldwide
or fucking cooking on that furnace LMAO
Where is that video of the dump guy haha
Welcome back!! I love to follow you with a Google Earth and research all the fascinating places you go but what I treasure most are your interactions with everyday people all full of loving and soulful life pleased to show you their world. Thank you, Mr. Bald, for expanding our world horizons!
Great travelogue as usual, enjoy the historical references.
The lady with the gold grill was super stoked to just have someone to talk to.
Fun fact...I lived here in Bishkek for 3 months during my US military days in 2010. I have those very mountains in many videos. I even white water rafted there, ate really good food in the more busy towns and partied my ass off every night. Really good memories.
Damn it Bald I was just about to take a nap.
How can you now!😆
Same here, but I got happy when he released a new video.
She’s just lonely 😔 and who wouldn’t want to keep talking to mr bald anyways 🙌🏻🤔😄👏😎
The hotel was still not worse than the "Golden star hotel" I stayed in when I was in London!
I just Googled it. Bloody hell, what a shithole.
Not as bad as hotel Carter in New York City
