This Is “Normal” in My Siberian Village… You Won’t Believe It 😳

Added: 2026-05-05

[00:00:00]Hello everyone, it's Via from Siberia and today I would like to talk about the things what's normal for me and strange for you. The first thing as you can see it's snow in the end of April. This is totally normal. May probably will be the same and there is nothing strange at this for me but for you probably there is or not. Also our winter as we can count it can be some 8 7 months and this is amazing. Second thing is finally I understand what does it mean prepare for winter like you know when you live in the city you don't know what does mean really prepare for the winter here I will show you what does mean prepare for the winter first of all in the autumn you start to achieving goal not achieving but at least buying it and putting it in this room like you know it's so heavy and it's so hard but it's already normal the same thing it's drawing about wood. You come here and you can see how much wood will you need for the entire winter. But obviously we spent already many many wood and when you order it like you should cut it to these pieces or you order it already like this and you put it by your bare hands to this room and after you're taking it out to do heater and stove and not be frozen in the winter. Normal thing here to do all this because otherwise you will not survive like you know you know cut.

[00:01:41]Next thing what is normal for me but strange for you is to shower in No.

[00:01:50]This is just grace. We keep them for a while here. Like you know the thing is you should shower in this amazing sauna not in your comfy shower. What's normal?

[00:02:01]It's like this amazing pipe and like this sona here you put water you take it and you shower. And as in old times here it's totally normal and this is amazing like I don't know even who's using shower. Also the normal thing here is to have house like this uh beautiful and stylish. Honestly, when I watch houses from the other countries, they look totally different. For some reason, only in Russia, our houses, they look like this beautiful like there too.

[00:02:33]You cannot look. Unfortunately, you don't have house like this in your country. But we have like this we don't feel. Next thing what I will show you what's normal for me but strange for you is some building like this.

[00:02:50]This is totally normal because you know when you don't have a lot of money, you just build something from asart. It's asart in English. It's normal. And at least it's keeping things like there is our tractor. There's millions of things.

[00:03:05]It's like bag of a woman. Like you can find anything here. You can find anything and it's doing its work. Why do you need something else? I don't understand. Next thing, what is normal for me? It's that next next thing what's normal for me is to have like this road because you know uh cleaning snow it's it needs to be done. Let's clean it. So normal thing already and typical here it's every day every day you should go and clean the snow for all the winter and it's never finished and you clean little bit it's coming new you clean it's coming new so that's strange for you but normal for me and we already arrived to the place where is the most interesting part is begin it's this hay As you can see, you should bring it to your yard and keep it for all winter because you have a farm.

[00:04:10]Farm where you don't have weekends. You can't be sick. You can't uh go somewhere because you have animals. Animals there waiting for food. No matter which mood you have, which day you have, it doesn't matter. So, let's go and discover what we got for all this winter. Our amazing small farm.

[00:04:39]Hello everyone. First thing what's meeting you here is the smell. This is amazing smell. So, for me it's totally normal because I get used to and adapted and it's even delicious. But for you probably you you will run. So, let's go and see what we got. Here is our favorite G. Let's go.

[00:05:03]I miss you. And as you can see, she is losing losing her hair now because it's spring and you know, she's changing her hair because in the winter she got this uh you know this white hairs to heat her. Yes. Guy good.

[00:05:23]Yes. Good. The normal thing here, I think it's obvious. It's that for example, cleaning uh the yard. Uh God is around from us. Gocha.

[00:05:36]Goa, I'm looking at you. Go, I'm over here.

[00:05:44]You know your animals, they can be little bit foxy and steal food what they are not supposed to eat. So you should keep watching your animals 247. Also, as you can see, like you should clean this place of your animals. And for you, IT IT WILL BE STRANGE to take it by hands.

[00:06:03]For me, it's already totally normal. And I even love it.

[00:06:08]Also, as you can see, water, for example, uh in the winter especially, it's so hard to bring it here. Like every day you are going like this with two buckets of water. So, taking heavy things here, it's totally all right.

[00:06:23]Who is not taking heavy things? Even we take heavy things. Everyone is taking and like this also water in the winter in a chicken coupe or your barn it's always frozen. So you should bring it every day warm water and you know bring it and take it back and like this 24 and 7 o soul. Here is our moa also. You know it's normal thing that when you are going to buy some animal they can sell you some animals what they cannot walk or they can have some problems like this happened to us because we were beginners before and this is our moinka he can't walk like always he always needs to trim his hooves and he doesn't have enough calcium so you know but he's our son and we are keeping him for the rest of is for the um forever. All this farm it's just pets. So you know we love animals and this is strange for you probably also but for us it's normal because you know like this is our pets. Here you can see cages. All this barn it was built by our hands. So like not built like renovated.

[00:07:40]So you know this is normal for you to create to do everything by your hands.

[00:07:45]If your refrigerator is broken, you should fix it by yourself because no one will come to fix it for you. Also, build cages by yourself. Everything by yourself. By yourself. And this is the most amazing thing because like like why not? Next thing it's you can see our chickens. And uh let's go closer to them.

[00:08:08]I never thought about this, but chickens they do the most poops in uh in the whole world. Uh because you can just clean and next day you come and it's all looks like this. So this is normal for you to clean it so often and you know it doesn't matter how how you clean it, you will still find it here like this. They look also some chickens they love to eat their own eggs. If some problem happened on your farm and you're beginner, you know, you don't know a lot of things, you will face the problems and you should deal with them by yourself and uh you know this is the worst part of being farming is that sometimes you have losses and it's so sad and painful especially if it's your pets. So we had this problems and we needed to face them and it was really so sad so sad thing and like this but it deserve it to learn and to become professional professional farmer and prof professional zoo pet ma pet maker pet maker oh and this is the end of April that's amazing by the way this winter we we were worrying the most about or chickens that they will be called chickens. How they will survive?

[00:09:29]You know what I will tell you? Chickens are the strongest animals on this farm.

[00:09:33]Really, I would say they're the strongest. You just give them vitamins, uh, some seafood, something, and they are good. But some other animals, you know, it's a little bit harder. So, that's it about our farm. And let's go to the next part. As you can see, our weather it's totally all right in April and in the winter it can be minus40 minus 50°. So, this is also normal.

[00:10:00]Totally all right for us. But maybe probably strange for you. And from here, you know, uh you can't have a lot of winter jackets with you. So, you will always look like this, a little bit dirty, like like strange person. But it's totally all right.

[00:10:19]But you will never feel bored here.

[00:10:22]Absolutely. Even if there is some routine what you do every day and it can feel like routine. But you can add anything you want in your day and you will always find adventure because you know one day you woke up something is broken. You go to fix it. One day you woke up snow is 3 kilometers so you should go and clean it. One day you woke up and you decided to build some garage.

[00:10:46]Isn't that it's amazing? Like that's amazing. Next day you wake up, you decide to go and drive your jiguli. Uh I hope you saw it in the video. Let's go.

[00:10:56]I will show you.

[00:11:10]And here is our jigi. As you can see here, I will put link on the video with the uh review on this car. Not review like a cartoon >> cartoon, you know. And you can see how it looks inside and everything. So like this. This is this is like amazing. And the most amazing part of it, it's not that you get tired or something like this. It's that you love to do this.

[00:11:40]like you can't imagine not doing these things. So this makes you stronger and every day you wake up you say I am so strong professional. So I really advise you to try it and you will not regret it probably. Now we will go to our castle uh typical Russian house and even little bit better than typical. Hope you will be surprised and say wow I want to live there.

[00:12:06]And you know first thing with what we start is this lock like you know if someone is coming and you are like opening your house and you feel like it's someone is dangerous you just turn and you do you know they run already like Russia is safe country but anyways and now we are already in our househ here I will put link where you can watch our house tour and write in comments Did you watch it or not? So, let's go.

[00:12:38]Uh, next thing, what's normal for us but not normal for you, it's to you, uh, do stove. So, heater, Russian traditional heater every day until the end of winter. So, it's probably like seven, eight months. Sometimes you can do more often, sometimes you do less. Depend on how cold is it outside. And like this it looks like this. You can see fire.

[00:13:05]You know, we used all coal what we ordered and now we have just wood. So, you know, it's more work. Also, about our weather, as you can see, it's always looks like this. So, you don't see sun almost never. And this is also normal. So if you need to go to shop and buy something, you need to go far away in some nearest city because in the village it's everything is super expensive double price and if you have strange dog like this Siberian husky you have to deal with it because otherwise you know he is doing strange things and you become also strange. I forgot to mention that uh electricity it can be cut any moments and a lot of times our electricity was cut. So you have to keep at home something like this like some candles and they never work but it's all right on this case you have some other candles and they >> they never work >> they never work too some candles something what will save your life but at least you have uh your stove where you can cook in case if you can't cook on electric stove but you can't Because this our stuff should be in electricity to you know doesn't matter. So it can look hard and it can look strange and it can look maybe bored to live in the village but it's nothing like this at all. It's so funny, amazing and adventurous uh life. I would say that in winter it's more boring anyway because you just have a lot of hard work but u less adventures or something because it's so cold outside so you count minutes until you can come back home because your um like you know your skin is start to be frozen your face you don't feel it it's burning and you just want to run from it uh in the winter but in summer when it's everything green you have your farm you have your uh chair like this handmade this start to be amazing. So I hope you didn't get scared from village life and this video was informative and interesting and I hope you liked it. So thank you for watching.

[00:15:28]See you next video.

[00:15:30]Bye.
