morning before the sun has had a chance
to like cook
everything this hostel is great it's
called a hotel
fantastic there it is train station
it is crazy to me that this car is still

go through TSA and have all of our stuff
metal detected okay we're good and then
I remember from last time I was here
this place sells really great hot
sandwiches can I get this and two of
these thank you okay we have a really
long train ride so this is the only food
we're going to be getting probably until
like
[Music]
evening okay let's go get ourselves on a
train I am actually not sure which train
I'm supposed to be on here we go this is
the right train
okay we are almost
there okay now what we need to do is go
walk to the storage shed and pick up the
bike regretfully it is hot as
outside right
now luckily the warehouse is pretty
close to the train station I did not
know that before I planned any of this
it's just really convenient I thought
I'd have to walk a lot
farther we able just sit down and wait I
guess yes perfect and then we will just
slowly pull it out okay we have the bike
perfect got the kickstand up I am so
glad I don't need to carry the stupid
jacket around anymore
okay we are about 1 and 1 half miles
away from our hotel we have a half
charge I think we're good let's
go Okay Google map says that we are
staying here somewhere okay this is the
one that's listed on Google Maps but I
don't see anybody here to welcome us so
I'm going to see if I can figure this
out of my
own um uh hello I'm here I'm at the
apartment
um okay okay 10 minutes cool I'm sure my
bike is fine over there there's a store
here I want to see if I can get
something to
drink oh
perfect oh and a popsicle yes this is
like a dollar okay so I'm going to try
to oh mint chocolate chip popsicle
that's
good I'm going to try to ride this bike
all the way to London that was my goal a
while ago we're going to stick with that
but there's some stuff we got to do to
it first you'll remember that I didn't
actually do any of the maintenance I
said I was going to do we haven't fixed
the brakes we haven't oiled the chain uh
neither of the tires have slime in them
yes hello Hello nice to meet you I'm
Nate third floor
yes oh wow this is really nice okay I
paid she left I'm confused because this
place was supposed to have a washing
machine uh it's got an ironing
board like I've been in a hostel for a
couple of days I need to clean my
clothes not good okay she didn't pick up
I'm going to go bring my bike in at
least my bike I'll be
safe and I know that this place isn't
really known for having wander mats okay
let's get the bike in here figure out
that problem in a second hello
hello yes that yes yes lock it right
there perfect okay she says that they
don't have a washing machine in the unit
but that they have a washing machine
between all five of the units so we can
wash our clothes
there
okay okay so yes we were able to get
laundry done we are thank you again okay
okay so that was about to get pretty
heated I thought we were going to have
another Australian Campground type
situation because I booked this place
specifically because they said they had
a washing machine on the booking.com
listing that was a thing that they said
that they had I've been in the same
clothes for like a couple of days all my
clothes are dirty I need a washing
machine um they don't have one I thought
it was like under the sink or something
the listing says it has it so when I
went up to her I'm like Hey where's the
washing machine did I like miss it and
she's like no you don't have one I'm
like but it but it says that I do where
is it she's like no no I have one I have
one for me you don't uh and I'm like
okay I want my money back I need to
cancel this I need to find a place with
a washing machine I can't stay here for
multiple days with dirty clothes and so
it went back and forth got pretty heated
eventually she's like hey I will just
wash your clothes for you so she's using
her personal washing machine to wash my
clothes that might become a problem in
the future but I can probably last a
couple of days on my current clothes
okay let's go get everything off of the
bike now yeah so I'm glad she decided to
wash them that's she didn't need to she
could have just been like no you don't
get your money back and no you can't
wash your clothes if if a host lies on
booking.com there's not like a whole lot
of recourse you have especially if you
paid in cash I have my original
sunscreen the sunscreen that I bought
there we got an air pump oh yeah I need
the
Chargers actually charge the batteries
okay I'm not going to lie I missed
this aside from that washing machine
this place is perfect it's got a
bathtub just a sec my stuff is dirty
because
it's let's get all this mud off of it
clothes have finished washing we don't
really have a clothes dryer so we're
just going to hang them up on the
railing the newest episode of the boys
just aired yesterday we are going to go
watch it in the bathtub I don't know how
I feel about this new season I feel like
the writing is a little bit worse but
I'm happy that the seasons are
continuing happy I'm happy to be back in
that Universe actually I realized I've
got a TV right here I'm just going to
watch it on the TV star she just want in
I bet my laundry is done drying no see I
thought about staying here for like a
longer period of time but honestly I
just get bored I was sitting in my
hostel all nice and comfortable with my
book just thinking about how I want like
more Adventure being able to rent an
apartment for $30 a night is great but
it needs to be interjected in between
like bouts of of challenging activities
I think that I want to do this like 2
months on the bike one month in Ukraine
two months on the bike one month in
Ukraine something like that oh I
got to go let Rosana in her taxi just
arrived
where is she
hello thank you we are up on the third
floor we have a living room a kitchen
with like kitcheny stuff we do have a
bathtub and the bedroom uh Rosana has a
photo shoot here in laiv tomorrow uh so
it's just cheaper if we both stay in the
same place it's economical
see and now I don't need to carry all my
clothes in my backpack I can actually
store them on my bike I have missed
having that extra storage space no like
honestly I've missed using my tent
staying in like super nice hotels and
hosts for so long just gets
boring we will actually do work on it
tomorrow so yes are you
hungry huh yes I was at the store I'm
like hey she probably is not going to
drink diet coke so I got you water and I
got you one of these coffee things if
you want to try them
I want to show you a burger place that I
found in
laiv yes yes that burger place she's
over here like oh lock the door lock the
okay I will lock the door so I opened up
a uh put credit spread on S&P 500 so I'm
hoping that the S&P 500 goes down below
uh $543 by Monday morning uh we will
find out but it looks like you can see
there it's going down so it looks like
this will be a profitable trade we are
going this way
I want have to f a cat not me guess what
I did not even need to open my map and I
found it it's right there okay so this
place right here you guys might remember
I made a video about it it went viral on
Tik Tok with like 1.5 million views that
is how she actually found me she saw
that video and she added me on Instagram
are they open they don't have
electricity so they're closed right now
do you think that they will open once
they have electricity yeah but like it's
not going to be soon okay well we will
just walk around the city until the
power comes back on because that is
where I want to eat at I am determined a
lot of you guys joke that me and her uh
we look alike and it's just because of
the glasses I promise it's the glasses
but she's starting to talk like me like
she's saying like God damn it just like
I do I will not say it because on camera
it's going to be so sh I just want to
embarrass
myself she's picking up all of my vocal
mannerisms hell hell
yeah this is the sound of
Ukraine okay uh we might not be able to
get burgers power still out I'm going to
wait here for like 5 minutes because I
really want the fries here okay I
surrender we'll go find food somewhere
else everything is shut down KFC is shut
down hopefully McDonald's is open it
looks like McDonald's is the only place
that's open and it is absolutely
packed full of
people good
God yeah no no no
nope I will go hungry before I wait in
this
line the most striking thing about this
to me is how much damage they're
actually doing to the Ukrainian economy
it's Friday night right now and you
cannot go to any of the businesses
downtown because they are all shut down
but it's not because there's no power
like you can still see there street
lights like there is power here they're
just like voluntarily turning off the
power from Individual places to save
energy I'm just not sure if saving the
energy is worth the economic damage that
they're doing to the economy okay so
what we're going to try now uh because
everything is closed is is food delivery
maybe there are restaurants that are in
parts of the city that have electricity
that can deliver to us okay it says that
they accepted the order let's see if
they follow through with that I've had
this happen before where they accept the
order and then you wait 20 minutes and
you get the notification says they canel
it looks like our apartment has
electricity or the area where our
apartment is she's Nifty she can order
things in Ukrainian yeah so the
electricity outages they're not for the
entire city they do it for like
individual blocks at a time and it looks
like our apartment is part of the place
that has electricity sweet sour salty
sa sweet salty sour Savory
yeah okay but it looks like my position
is we're 544 um if it goes down another
dollar I'm I make a 100% profit on those
calls like and now your face will be
like yuck she's going to show me how
it's
done got a
girl it's not good beer that's
impressive like it's not good beer oh
