Walking through the ruins of Aleppo: Where war ends and life begins 🇸🇾

Hello everyone.

I recently visited Aleppo and wanted to share my experience. I was blown away by the hospitality and the spirit of the people I met in the bazaar and near the Citadel. Even though the scars of the war are everywhere, seeing the reconstruction work and the shops reopening gives me so much hope for the city’s future.

I made this video to show the world that Aleppo is more than just a war zone—it's a place where life is finding its way back. Thank you for watching and supporting the video!

Is it safe to travel to Syria in 2026? My recent experience in Damascus 🇸🇾

Hi everyone!

I recently traveled to Syria to see firsthand what the situation is like for travelers in 2026. In this video, I document the entire process of entering the country and my first impressions of Damascus.

I know there are many questions and concerns regarding safety and the current state of the country, so I wanted to share this footage to provide a current perspective. Whether you are curious about the culture, the logistics of the trip, or just want to see how the city looks today, I hope you find this helpful!

Just got back from Moscow — and yes, traveling there is absolutely possible

I wanted to share a video I filmed during my recent trip to Moscow, as I still see many people assuming that traveling to Russia is currently impossible or that the country is completely closed off to tourists.

The reality is quite different. While there are some restrictions and a few extra steps compared to traveling within Europe, visiting Russia as a tourist is still entirely possible.

In the video, I show what Moscow looks like today: the atmosphere in the streets, public transportation, prices, safety, and my overall experience exploring the city. I also cover some practical information that may be useful for anyone considering a trip there.

Feel free to check it out and ask any questions about visas, flights, payments, internet access, or traveling in Russia in general.

Thank you for yout time!
