She is amazing. Great video. But I can relate to her. I was brought up in an east european country and even though I'm slavic, I'm mixed with more slavic nationalities so everyone in my country made me feel like I never belonged there. Unfortunatelly for me, I never felt like I belonged in any western country either, despite me living in the west for a longer time. And now with the russia issue it's gotten even worse because I'm also partly ukrainian and lived in west so now people really make living around me hell. Since I'm more open minded due to having a lot of different friends from different countries living in my own home country was always lonely. And I never could fit in in west because exactly because I grew up in a totally different enviroment, my mindset cannot relate fully. I even lived in the Uk but it was hell for me. So since I have no idea where I belong, I'm just trying to meet a lot of different people from differnt countries and see where it takes me. Japan is currently my main goal.

@vetiarvind That's actually a view point I never thought of. I always saw it as me not fitting anywhere. But as much as that is true, I'm also able to belong wherever I want. In my own country I don't fit in because of my mixed Slavic roots. And when I was traveling in western countries I didn't fit in because of my same roots and different mentality. Maybe thats why I'm so comfortable with my other Slavic and Japanese friends, especially my Japanese crush the most. I'm comfortable to stand out, to be on my own while very, extremely slowly developing bonds with people who interest me instead of desiring a lot of affection and validation from others. Thank you, somehow I have seen it only in negative way all this time.

@yo2trader539 That is exactly how I feel. Just like most people from central and east europe you just feel that people in western parts look down upon us and it IS very hurtful. But at the same time I see how behind we are. Just by actively living and working in western Europe and making friends abroad it caused I no longer fit into my own society. Now it's even worse than before because there is a huge anti west propaganda in my country and I'm exhausted from it because in order to survive we have to adjust to western world but my country still refuses to move on from communism. But all our issues that make us suffer are completely weird to western world because of the black and white thinking. So yeah, you do seem to have valid points.
