So TH-cam actually demonetized my first video from Russia, saying that it was "violent". Blyat. I have absolutely no idea how a casual vlog walking around is "violent", and I'm worried they may do that to this entire series. So if you can please support me on Patreon, to make it worth your effort I'm posting extra vlogs from Italy, Holland, the Baltics and even Belarus on there: www.patreon.com/sabbaticaltommy
this demonetization is very sad. I really enjoyed these last 2 vids more than others. I am watching something i will probably never ever get to go in my lifetime. Sabbatical is doing humanity a good service with his vids.

I can't stand the propaganda. Even Tommy is terrified of being arrested when all he's getting is friendliness from Russians. Russia is a beautiful place to visit and I will next spring.
Я так понял, что Томми придерживается западной политической версии и осуждает политику России. Но и его платформа Ютуба приравняла к врагам. Лично мне всё равно, какая у него точка зрения по поводу политики, мне интересны его видео.
I'm loving this series on Russia. I know almost nothing about Russia and the geography there so it's opening my eyes to what this country is like! I can't believe they demonetized your first video. The politics is so blatant and dumb. That was about as clean a video as you can post. The bias is obvious. Appreciate your efforts Tommy!
Nice and honest videos about Russia and it's cities, no fakes no propaganda, you're doing good, wish you to keep on vlogging and showing how life is going in other countries .
The girl on the bus that says she works in Maryland... I believe they are the summer workers. I used to live in Myrtle Beach, SC. Every summer they'd all come over from other countries and work the summers at the local shops like that. It was cool to meet them and talk to them. Very interesting people.
I never would have thought the Russians, and people in so many other countries would be so friendly to an American. Thanks for showing that, very cool. Stay safe out there.
It depends, if you speak russian and look interesting. Yes.... If you act indifferent to them and know little about them. then they will make fun of you.
Alexander John Lee (an American who's lived in Russia since 2017) says that Russians love Americans. Maybe the fact that they don't speak English plays a part here. "Clueless".
Простые американцы ≠ гнилое правительство. Обычные люди везде примерно одинаковы. Хотят мира, любви, растить детей, отдыхать, работать. Нет никаких предпосылок не любить простых людей.
They either friendly think youre crazy for choosing their country for vacations among dozens of way better options for same price Or think you are amerikan spy Or another expat trying to marry hot soviet girl cause in your home country you get friendzoned lol
24 hour flower shop: when you returning home at 1am after having a few shots with your buddies and envisioing a serious conversation with your lovely pissed off wife, you better buy some flowers to deescalate the situation a bit 😀
Hey dude, Love the way you try and speak every language of every country you visit. I've been watching you for a while. It's the first time I've heard you speak Russian. As a Russian myself, you are great at it. keep it up. I'd love to see you visit more Russian speaking nations. great content!
I know right? The one from Maryland was all into him too. I noticed the one in the blue and Maryland had no ring on their finger, Why does Tommy not like getting laid?😂
Kudos to you Tommy. Always fascinating people from parts of the world that are literally cut off the rest of the world or you don't know much of how people from far away live their day to day lives. Thank you for traveling on our behalf cause I don't imagine myself traveling that far into the world
I'm glad to see you behave in such a good way. Whatever your beliefs are, you're friendly, polite and speak very good Russian btw. P.S. I like your style better than Bald's.
Американец побывал в русской "забегаловке" и отведал пирожка, его облаяла русская собачка - почуяла дух нерусский, мужик на улице вкратце обрисовал ему геополитическое состояние дел на мировой арене с помощью ударных и фундаментальных слов русского языка, симпатичные татарочки одарили вниманием . И ещё много других впечатлений. Россия такая большая страна, что если американец захочет побывать во всех концах России (а Путин когда-то сказал, что Россия никогда и нигде не кончается), то его путешествие продлится до его седой бороды. Хороших впечатлений, Американец, на дороге познании!
That village dude was awesome. I would've got him a few beers and let the camera roll. Every city in Russia has 24hr flower shops because it is mandatory to bring flowers to the ladies, no excuses.
apart from him being a typical muscovite invader racist AF and not a tatar continueing into being insulted that ukrainians dare to question the actions of his compatriots, ..yeah pretty "nice" dude...did you miss the part where he went on that racist rant on "how do you procreate with all the black and chinese people in the US".....
The old man who showed him the restaurant, had more colorful talk compared to what was translated in subtitles 😂 a funny mix of anti-American mindset and genuine curiosity to see an American, the adversary, first hand 😂😂
And yet still use it.. and able to freely express your opinion. Now try that on their platform, and against their government or peoples? and see what happens?
Bummer to miss that train, but it means Kazan likes you and wants you to stay🎉 Such flat country, one can see how the 'hordes' kept sweeping through from Asia - Huns, Mongols, Alans, Avars etc. Apparently, the Volga Tartars are somewhat of a different tribe from the Crimean Tartars, who I knew about (Stalin deported many of them to Siberia). 😮
@@SabbaticalTommy you were going to get demonetized anyway, it probably made no difference - if you know it was going to anyway, you may as well show things like that, it's interesting, we westerners don't often get to see that sort of thing

I've been up and down that part of the east Coast! That Maryland lady works for Sunsations! It's basically a chain store that sells cheap beach items, like boogie boards, beach towels, and canopy umbrellas and shot glasses that say "Ocean City" on them, or whatever town they're in, and other random tchotchkes.
They also house them 8 people per room, pay them fuck all, and teach them all about democracy and American values. Not only Sunsations. Any store, big or small, in any coastal town.
TOMMY. Gotta say dude you are gutsy to travel in 'No-GO-Zones' or off the beat'n track tourist spots around the globe. Very admirable and courageous. Thoroughly enjoy Sabbatical segments and instantiates comments. Keep on going with it. Cheers Mate.
Татарстан в составе России уже почти 500 лет. Грубо говоря, в Британии ещё правил Генрих Восьмой, а татарские территории уже были частью Русского Царства (Шекспир еще не родился, а кониальная эпоха только начиналась, а в Северной Америке не было ни одного европейца). Вот насколько долго Татарстан в России. В Российской Федерации эту часть земель еще называют средневолжским регионом. Сами татары говорят на тюрских языках, но там живёт много и финских народов (мордва, марийцы, удмурты).
Hi , Tommy. I am living in Kazan. It is nice to see you I my city. I hope you liked it. You could write me by the way and I would tell you about the city)
A lady on the bus said "She used to work in Ocean City, Maryland". Don't come to Ocean City from September to April. You won't see many people and cold. Can't go into water at the beach. People you encounter are old couple. Ocean City has a lot of visitors in summer only.
My observation from your Russian videos is that the cities are very organized and clean. Also the people are polite and civilized. Totally opposite of what we're taught here in the US about Russia.

Those Russian women on the bus were absolute babes. The lady even sang for you at the end, and she actually tried too and she was really good!
These videos from tommy on the street theres nothing but babes.. oh yeah russia has more women then men
You always bring us great content. I'm really enjoying these Russian videos.

That. And also most flowers are imported, and have a really, really short shelf life. You want to maximize the time when you can actually sell them.
the guy at 27:20 just kept getting better and better holy shit so funny
I admire you I spent 3 years traveling after I got out of school you are living history as well as investing in yourself.

That lady in the blue was digging you Tommy. She was cute too.

Great video, learned alot ,always informative videos.
Looks like Tommy is there for the 16th BRICS Summit🤨🤨🤔🧐.

Fantastic, tommy is a generational talent

Great video Mr. T.
this video will make my saturday night, thanks tommy
The teacher in the blue dress is a keeper.
27:24 A lesson in top-level international politics 😂
Russia is a very fascinating country.
That village looked cozy.
Tommy, You got balls of steel to be presenting this in these days and times.

This is how the world should come together. Thanks Tommy. Don’t get discouraged. Half a mil people appreciates you.
Tommy not far from Kazan is a Russian city called Cheboksary it is absolutely beautiful and said to be Russias cleanest. I think you would like it.
As someone who has been involved in education for 33 years, I can tell you teachers are wild. That said, that guy had a lot to say!
Это вы видимо дикие)
