I really miss those stairs, haven't walked on them for over 12 years now

Thanks to all of you who have commented this video with similar remarks ("I have walked these steps and miss them"). Glad to have provided nice memories to all of you.

I been up and down those steps a few times over the past year. Never run up the little buggers though.

Where do you live, since you have been there more than once? Do you live close to Odessa? If you come there again, why not make a video of your own - maybe featuring a pram...

I live in London, but my friend married a girl from Odessa 6 weeks ago, so we've been over there regularly. I'm going back again soon, I'll keep my eyes open for a pram (or Lada!).

[henrikbjerreso]

That would be a great idea! Push a Lada down the steps - don't forget to have some good shots from below like the original pram - and some close-ups of the (female) driver's facial expression while it lasts. Anyway, nice to hear from someone who has also walked these historical steps.

Is there an English speaking community there or does one have to really immerse in the language? I've always wanted to live in Odessa, it one of the most amazing cities in Europe as far as Im concerned.

1965 - on arrival in Odessa the first thing i wanted to do is walk the stairs and the images from the film came flooding into my memory as well as the memories of my maternal family my great grandfather was in the black sea navy

I don't know about Odessa, but I learned that there is a fairly large American/British/Canadian community in Nikolaev, about an hour and a half away.

I just got back from Odessa 2 weeks ago, and the one thing that I see missing is all of the vendors. This video did not have a single person selling old Soviet war medals or anyone trying to take the guy's picture with some bird.

Yes I have been there , and walked over these steps too with my girlfriend, she is from odessa.

I would like to move and live there but I would like to find a english speaking comunity of course if there is one.

I love Ukraine!!
