As a British expat who has been living very happily in the Serebrianka district of Minsk for the last 12 years, I confirm that Minsk is a very good place to live. Additionally Serebrianka whilst being one of the older "Soviet" parts of Minsk away from the city centre, like the rest of Minsk (and Belarus) it is extremely well maintained and clean as well as being very safe. I feel a lot safer here than I did in many years living in Cambridge and London in the UK.
That's interesting, as a native Minsk citizen I would say that this district is definitely not considered "safe" amongst local residents. For a long time (90s, 00s, early 10s) it was one of the most criminal areas in Minsk along with Shabany, Avtozavod and Chizhovka. I'm curious - what part of the district do you live in?
I have been living in Serebryanka for my whole life, which is 34 years. If we are talking about Minsk that was built during soviets, I should say that the district is quite young. Most of the modern Serebryanka was built in the 70-80s. That's part of the reason why this place was so dangerous in the 90s. When the Union collapsed and most of it became a "bad neirborhood" for a decade, lots of families in Serebryanka had kids of 15-25 years old. The generation were looking for ways to make something of themselfes, get some money, and get some fun. In the 90s it was crimial activities for the young lads. That's why it was so dangerous in the district back in the days and that's why there are a bit more drunkers and unhappy families now. Yet all the talks about Serebryanka being less safe now are mostly built upon the 90s legends. In that time there was no chance you'd be able to get a cab to Palyesse night shop - there were people stabing people every single night. Nowadays Serebryanka is getting old and now is as safe as all the rest of the city. It's a beautiful place with lots of trees and water, good transportation, etc. Parking is a huge problem, but that's again true for most of the city.
Why of course it is a good place to live since you retain your passport of a first world country and should all hell break loose like in 2020 you’ll be the first one to jump on the first plane out of there. It is also so clean and safe as if some dictatorial hand is suffocating everything. As Belarus national who lived there for 20 years you make me fucking sick. Renounce your first world citizenship and try living there like an actual belarussian with no life line to the free world. But of course you people will never do that
Love Minsk, been there twice and spent many happy hours walking around the city I’m a big fan of Soviet architecture so a great way to pass the time. A big shout out to the people of Belarus really nice, friendly and helpful folks. Best wishes.
Thanks for the great videos Mr. Partizan. I just returned from Minsk after the New Year. I love it there. I spent a lot of time in Minsk and Brest. I would love to see videos of other cities such as Grodno, Mogilev and Gomel.
Very interesting and informative. Great quote from Nicola Tesla at the end. ‘If your hate could be turned into electricity, it would light up the whole world’
Very enjoyable and wise words as well regarding ex pats. We came to Ireland from London almost 50 years ago and are happy that we made the move first visiting our relations near Tramore (Carbally) before settling in Lucan, No language problems for us, however, we were not much use to our children with their Irish language homework from school. Keep up the streams, stay safe.
A great video again today Niall, among your best, I have been living/working happily in Russia and Kazakhstan since 1994, and it has always been challenging, different, rewarding and I have no regrets. Thanks for the wise words at the end of the video.
I must be special, but I do love the grey sky and Soviet style building. This kind of video always bring me back some memories. As an expat who did live abroad for several years. Here an observation. Some expat will make very rational decision and they will be happy. But A lot of expat got it wrong because they have been misguided from the beginning. Some move to Usa because they watched a Hollywood movie. Others moved to Thailand because of the "cheap life, h/o/e". But usually the honeymoon will not last very long... They were looking for something that was not here in the first place.
Very nice video. Thank you for showing us those lovely mosaics. Excellent stuff. More Soviet architecture and some Belarusian football in future videos, please. Thanks again for all the great videos.
Thank you very much Niall, and I agree with your comments regarding expats. The Yugoslavian instructions are the best ever. Please can you show some supermarkets and other shops so your followers can see what it is really like (or have I missed that episode?).👍👍
Very clean in Vitebsk also. There was a group of people who came out like an army early in the morning. It looked like each person had an assignment in advance. Very short time it was over. Saw no one the rest of the day.

That Yugoslav passport advice was wonderful, but having traveled the length and breadth of Yugoslavia in the 1980s, I'd say the yugoslaves that didn't travel abroad had not read it ... Yugoslavia was feckin hard going back then .....
Hi sir. I'm planning to move to Belarus. I don't have any university degree. I want to come on language course and then want to settle there. Sir i need your advice will Belarus will be a good option? And will i able to find any work there? I'm from Pakistan. I will wait for your answer. By the way I'm your huge. I'm watching your videos from many time that's one of the reason i love Belarus so much
Hello, MrZaif! I accidentally saw your comment. I don't know about Belarus, but I can say about Russia. Without a university education and a language, I think it will be difficult to find a job - here this labor market is occupied by workers from Central Asia (Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and so on). But I think you will get more information if you contact your compatriots in Russia. If you contact the Embassy of Pakistan in Russia, I think they have contacts of the Pakistani diaspora in Moscow. Good luck to you!
I live in cerebranka since many years. I am curious from where came this idea that cerebranka is so crime infested or unsafe. This is totally untrue. It is as clean as any other area in Minsk. Me and my kids and wife go out late and we never had any problem. On the opposite. I have seen in Kamino Gorka where my friend lives so many burglarized properties.
Russian is the same all over the former USSR territory. You can go to the Central Asian republics and they would still speak the same Russian there, though there might be a bit of an accent in different regions. It is probably due to the same school programs and the same TV/newspapers/books, etc
By Train or Road Ivanogrod-Narva Estonia- 🇪🇪 Or on a extremely expensive Flight Via Armenia - Georgia-UAE Doha- Dubai-Qatar, Oman Muscat & Turkish Airlines. Air Serbia via Belgrade.
Belarusian language is used in bus stops ,metro station ,railway station in some shops ets. Large city like minsk and regional centers mostly russian speaking but in provinces ,willages is still speaking belarusian. Belarusian language usage decreasing in time not by natural proces but by policy that made pro-moscow goverment in minsk.
@@Eckoolt I meant "odd". Now to explaining: I don't get it because it's odd to me seeing people move from democratic and free countries to this shit hole. I think that after 2020 most of the people here gave up any hope they had on living better lives
Enjoy your videos. Minor cultural question.......in all your transactions I hear you say "Please" and "Thank you" which of course is good manners here in the West. I've heard Russians and Belarusians only use the terms for extra special favors and not ordinary routine purchases at stores or other services. I guess it is similiar, to Westerners with random smiles on their faces to strangers that Russians interpret as insincere. True?
I can't answer for all Russians, but personally I always use "please" and "thank you" to the salespeople, though there are some other ways to ask politely for what you want without using "please" directly. Salespeople are also usually very polite, it's considered the norm in general to be polite to others.
Sure, now everyone can clearly see, what has happened to the former USSR after US became present there - poverty,gangsters and war(except Belarus) - yet putin is a western flanky. The export of gas to EU during the "war" has only increased(the gas pipe in Ukraine does not get damaged) , putin gets money and in general is doing a great job for western c..unts.
Ever thought that other people may have other opinions? Personally, I like this channel, so Like and subscription from me. And if someone doesn't like this channel, there are plenty of other channel on TH-cam to watch, why even come here?
@A K *You are not a Belorussian, and question about using "Belorussian" clearly indicates, that you are a bot, maybe latvian bot.F..off back to your facscist excuse of a country, under U.S. Mafia, you've got nothing to do about Bialorus.*

@@MsLemons12 so why didnt sadam hussien get to be on the cover of vouge and have free weapons from the west?
@@Henry_Jones I'm done with predictions. I didn't think Russia would be so stupid
Enjoy your videos. Minor cultural question.......in all your transactions I hear you say "Please" and "Thank you" which of course is good manners here in the West. I've heard Russians and Belarusians only use the terms for extra special favors and not ordinary routine purchases at stores or other services. I guess it is similiar, to Westerners with random smiles on their faces to strangers that Russians interpret as insincere. True?
From my own experience people almost always use "Please" and "Thank you" except for the redneck
I can't answer for all Russians, but personally I always use "please" and "thank you" to the salespeople, though there are some other ways to ask politely for what you want without using "please" directly.
Salespeople are also usually very polite, it's considered the norm in general to be polite to others.
Hi)
You study russian language?
Do you speak ruski with with an oirish accent and can they tell your from oirlind? Belarus go bragh
Trust me Shabany is no more dangerous then Manchester I’ve walked around there drunk as a skunk it’s fine don’t believe the hype
Immigrant!!! the expat word is for brits living in Spain that voted Brexit
Dude. Man no comment and I will not sub to Chanel who want to hear about Russia and Soviet Union. Sorry my opinion get out of there. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
Sure, now everyone can clearly see, what has happened to the former USSR after US became present there - poverty,gangsters and war(except Belarus) - yet putin is a western flanky. The export of gas to EU during the "war" has only increased(the gas pipe in Ukraine does not get damaged) , putin gets money and in general is doing a great job for western c..unts.
Ever thought that other people may have other opinions? Personally, I like this channel, so Like and subscription from me.
And if someone doesn't like this channel, there are plenty of other channel on TH-cam to watch, why even come here?

@A K Are you a single Belorussian citizen, or just a single american troll? :)
@A K *You are not a Belorussian, and question about using "Belorussian" clearly indicates, that you are a bot, maybe latvian bot.F..off back to your facscist excuse of a country, under U.S. Mafia, you've got nothing to do about Bialorus.*
Do you still enjoy living in Minsk despite a dictator being in charge?

What is he doin' in such a country like belarus.if he wants to live in cheaper country than ireland than neighboring lithuania would be much much better choice.
I don't think it's very cheap in Lithuania lol
The last dictatorship of Europe is definitely not for me. It looks like Pyongyang. Communist, grey, dull and boring
I agree. The EU is definitely not for me.
