Stuck in Narungi for four days while his travel companion, Elvin, battles a busted axle in Yakutsk, Jeremy settles into the town like a reluctant local who’s slowly falling in love. Between discovering the best poached eggs in town and mastering the local gas station lineup, he finds comfort in the town’s quiet predictability.
His morning mission to the local car wash quickly turns into a masterclass in Russian cleanliness, complete with spotless wash bays, the two-bucket method, and serious towel discipline. Once Elvin’s car is fixed, the travellers hits the road towards Vladivostok.
After smashing through a pothole, Jeremy discovers not one, but two mangled tires. In a town without matching replacements, he swaps the worst offender for his spare and limps toward civilization. The next stop brings surprising fortune: a large tire warehouse humming with activity, friendly workers, and shelves lined with fresh 2024 Yokohamas. The crew treats Jeremy like an unexpected celebrity, posing for photos, gifting him shirts, and showing off their workspace while installing his new set of wheels.
So if you’ve ever imagined road-tripping through far-flung corners of Russia, complete with unplanned detours, linguistic surprises, and tire drama galore, this video is your ticket. Watch Jeremy charm his way through mechanical mishaps and cultural curveballs, all while laughing off the madness.
