I’ve been in Korma as a bus driver picking up children who suffers from Chernobyl and bringing them to Belgium. I have done this 3 times. Once I stayed a week with the locals. Belarusians are very warm and nice people. Where I was after a few days , the father of the house send their family away, because he had not food enough to feed me and my colleague. I try to give them money, but he won’t accept it. So I hide the money in the room where we slept. Afterwards they found it and send me a nice thank you letter. This video and helping the people there brings back good memories.
Really?! Wow! So unusual that TH-cam suggested the video to you where I speak about Korma) I know that a lot of people from Italy and Belgium hosted children after Chernobyl disaster. But I’ve stayed in Germany) Happy to see you here 🥰 Best regards!
I don't know if there's some people who are focusing on poverty but for me I am focusing on the beautiful nature and the calm atmosphere which is something that you can't buy with money these days because peace of mind is the real treasure not money. I am adding this place to my list to visit it someday , great work you did on showing us this beautiful video
I grew up in the countryside and whenever I return there I feel an innate sense of peace and wellbeing, something I don't really get where I live. I believe unrestricted access to nature is so important for us as organic, spiritual and social creatures. That seems to be disappearing. Bizarrely it feels much lonelier living with a hundred others, stacked in little boxes on top of one another, than it does being surrounded by empty fields. Then again, somebody who grew up in the city might feel the opposite.
To be poor is not a shame, but rather brings out the beauty of oneself. You live in a very beautiful place and thank you for sharing with us. Respect and love from a South African Boer.
I love the place where I live no matter the fact that we struggle in economic terms) The beauty of my home is something that I miss wherever I go) Thank you!)
Katsiaryna, You may consider your birth-place "poor" in terms of money but, look around you! You're so *rich* in natural beauty, clean air and sunshine, away from pollution, city traffic jams, artificial noise (instead of the sound of birds, chooks and cows grazing), and above all, the unbearable stress that people living in small 'shoe-boxes' in cities suffer daily. You are blessed dear girl! Best wishes from a distant "grand-father" from Australia. 😃😃
This is the richest ecological environment. Very impressive to see such a wonderful landscape. Pure oxygen will prevail available. Best place to live in this peaceful hamlet.
thats why so many belarusians dont want west and europe, after joining eu here in lithuania many land was sold to foreigners and many green fields/forests destroyed in order to make factories, new tech stuff etc, even in cities it became urban hell, while in past in soviets times it was all green.. ik lukashenko is far far from good leader, but EU is not perfect too.

I'm from Brazil and love Belarus❤🇧🇷🇧🇾 Beautiful country: The villages are organized goods, the peaceful life in the countryside and the presence of animals! ❤💚🏡🍅🐓🍶🍄 I WILL SUBSCRIBE to the Channel!
Most people in NY would consider this a luxury vacation. One of the biggest fallacies of the west in recent times is the belief that money is the most important thing in determining quality of life.
It’s romantic to think living in an undeveloped country off the land will bring you a better quality of life but in reality it’s a pretty brutal unforgiving way to live. A lot of unnecessary death pain and suffering. Life expectancy birth related mortalities and so many other things that you take for granted in the city. If you think living in the city is rough you are not going to cut it out in the country. There is a money ceiling one you reach it your life doesn’t get much better and that is the reason people are unhappy they are prioritising a little bit more money but not getting a fair pay off. Money is not the only important thing but it’s the solution to most problems for people who haven’t hit that money ceiling yet.
'Vacation' is the nessesery word here. Once this becomes the only life you have, most things you are taking for granted right now would be wiped out. My parents' families originated from similar environments, and although not perfect, modern city life is definitely easier. It's not even about money in most cases.
Beautiful. This reminds me very much my childhood. I grew up in Poland, in quite similar environment. We used to have 1,5 hectare of our own cropland, with 2 cows, some 6 pigs and plenty of hens, ducks, rabbits and other live stock. We grew all vegitables alone. We cultivated the land alone, but we did not have any horse and my father was always borrowing the horses from his more wealthy neighbors. I have smelled similar flavor of such life again, while travelling in Belarus some 25 years ago. I am missing that so much, however I know how difficult the life on such a farm is. There is plenty of work every day, even on Sunday the animals need to fed and the cows need to be milked. Everything is far away, school, church, shop, friends. But we constituted a real family - working together, spending time together, sharing good and bad things together. Working on this small farm was a good school of life. Later our farm burned down and was never rebuilt. My parents went to work and our lives have changed.
Sorry to hear about your farm 😞 It is tough to live in the village. But when I look at how machinery can make everything easier than before, you may give it a try. As for the livestock it is a huge responsibility to look after all of them. Farmland has its blossoms, but before getting it you must go through dirt.
Hello. I am from Cuba and have been living in Belarus for one year and a half...sadly I will leave Belarus in the next few months...I know some of the main problems of Belarus but I love this country, I have been lucky enough to be able to visit the big cities as well as the villages.....I have partially learned the language, I have made several friends.....I will never forget that just arriving here a taxi driver asked me where I was from and when I said "Cuba" he replied (in Russian) "Cubans are friends"...it really touched my heart. Belorussian people is wonderful, even the smallest kids are well educated, Belorussian women are beyond beautiful, I had never been outside of my home country so Belarus will be forever in my deepest memories. I wish you all the best.
Living simple life doesn't mean that one is poor. It is possible that less resources are used & hence people have less money but it seems nature is abundant. Beautiful video.
Correct. Western society invented the silly idea of poor and rich but in reality, lot of "poor" people have a much richer life in "poor" countries than westerners in their tiny flats that they repay for 20-25 years.
Money is measure of cost of any physical thing. Money itself is not a commodity. Only money will not suffice & in the end physical things required. To ease the transaction, money came in practice. In future, this money model may get changed.
Beautiful!!!! What a sweet video and wonderful surprise to stumble on this, especially in the midst of what is happening in Ukraine. This is a dear reminder that people are the people and simply want to live and, in this case, live simply. Thank you.
Peaceful life is all a human being wants at the end of the day. And your town is rich in that. Worth a visit I guess. You have successfully gained one more subscriber mam. Lots of love from india 🇮🇳
A peaceful life is all a human being wants if they were conditioned for such. You take most people who grew up in a big city, and they'd be dying of boredom in a town like this. It is very important what you were conditioned for.

@my channel liigips liigips m Belarus doesn't need to be made into some stupid EU member just to satisfy people like you who think you live in freedom. Belarus is great just as it is and doesn't need to be destroyed the USA And EU.
Warm greetings from central Poland from another enthusiast of life in rural area, nature, self-sufficiency, local communities of mutually supporting people.
I had my ex girlfriend who was from Minsk but often we visited the countryside as she LOVED to go there.... went all around Balarus by rented car... good memories of a troubled relationship, but many great memories... Grodno, Polotsk, Belaveshaia Pusha (how is it spelled?).... Belarus is a STUNNINGLY Beautiful Country. Gentle and warm people. I wish you all the best Tanya, wherever you are now
My wife grew up in Grodno Belarus, and I’ve been there a few times over the years. I always felt it was a really beautiful country, both in its people and it’s land. Ty for showing this with your video.
It was not tranquil and peaceful between 1941 - 1945, caught in the middle of the biggest war the World has ever seen, Nazi Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union, called Operation Barbarossa. It is very nice that it is peaceful now, but I wonder if the ghosts of the past linger, either in the minds of the older population, as told to them by their parents and grandparents who were lucky to have survived it. Ukraine lived through it too, and continues to suffer so badly now as we all know............
Since I get a lot of comments on poverty and comparisons, I would like to clarify some of the notions: 1. The aim of the video was to show the contrast with the regions within Belarus (for example, the city of Minsk is richer in these terms than our entire Gomel region and Korma district!). I did not compare the subsistence minimum of Belarus and other countries like Kenya and other countries of Africa, etc. The subsistence minimum is calculated in regards to the well-being of a Belarusian economy. 2. Being poor and live in poverty are two connected but different notions. I am aware of worldwide hunger and poverty in certain regions. It pains me to say but we are lucky to have the possibility to cultivate land and get produce to survive. That is why we do what we do: agriculture - one of the main sectors of Belarusian economy. 3. The wages (salary) given in the video are before taxes. It is a monthly salary! This amount is enough to pay for utilities and food. No more than that.
You guys are self sustained, that's not poverty. I live in cosmopolitan rich city, earnings here is 10 times higher, but life is hard. We live bill to bill. Compare to ours, Life is much better in third world country than first world countries. Poverty is in USA, UK, and in EU. I saw Romanian and Iranian guys selling tea in Nepal, they are much happier there.
I am from South Africa...my village is NOT as poor as the whole so called civilised world think. Most of the pathetic stereotypes will vanish when one travels.
I think everyone can see glimpses of "where I grew up" or "the old country" in these images of Belarus. That house you showed reminded me a lot of my aunt's house. And it looked like it was the exact perfect temperature outside for just not going back in the house for a while. Stay out there, enjoy some sunshine, and live life. You packed a lot of emotion into this video. Thank you.
I totally agree. Reminded me of my grandmother homestead in phx that no longer exists. I’m glad I had a chance to live there for a season worth oranges, grapefruit and pecans , pomegranates love this life and land
Reminded me of my great grandmothers house. She was widowed with 8 children and took in laundry to exist. I always wondered where she got water to do other peoples laundry as there was no obvious water source nearby. People were tougher back then. I still remember the smell of baking bread from her wood stove.
Thank You from Texas. I'm an old man, 80. Area reminds me very much of my Papa and Grandma's farm. It's been in our family over 100 years. So peaceful.
Remembered my childhood memories. My family may be poor, I never felt until my 16 years of my age. We never had money but lots of happiness in and around my village.
@@comfortablydumbb you are right. My life is struck in 1999. Still believe, I can go back to that life once I wake up from (modern life) sleep. Think about I'm in very long sleep of 23 years. Grand father passed away. But him and me together memories(unforgettable) will take me another decade. When I see my daughters are happy life that make me think how much they lost in life!.

Ditto here as well! I saw the number of comments and thought is was views leaving me puzzled. I'm very glad it wasn't 5.3k because its worthy of over 2 million views. Great work I learned a lot and now I'll be much more likely to watch other videos.

@@Erik3E They’re government is quite open about their support of Russia. I am supportive of all people. Humanity. American colonialism is destroying the region, and nobody wants the Nazis America elevated to power. Russians are not the problem. It is governments and monetary interest groups that are the problem. Americans hands are dirty, even if we don’t realize it. The only people our government is hurting is the innocent, and a few soldiers.
@@coimbralaw No. The closest thing to a bot in this chat is the people parroting my countries war propaganda, as if the US has ever told the truth about a single conflict it has started. How are you so stupid that you serve the American war machine, and don’t even get paid for it? Or are you paid? We did install the Ukrainian government through a violent coup, and our state department, an active military major Tulsi Gabbard and state department goon Victoria Nuland have all admitted that we are running at least 25 bio labs in Ukraine on Russias border. But you go ahead and defend the Azov Battalion (funded by the US for that violent coup) and the Ukrainian puppet government and the bio labs. Go ahead and show your extreme ignorance because you feel obligated to root for the “good guys.” We see your emotional ignorance, and it’s a huge disappointment to humanity.
We need to perfect that teleportation technology so we can pop over there for a weekend and have a big party or harvest festival or something. And the locals will rake in the cash renting out air BnB's and selling local cuisine.
@@protorhinocerator142 It seems like a good idea, but it would be overload for them. Seeing one or two new people is one day would be exciting. A whole bunch of people yelling and texting and potentially getting drunk or high would be mentally catastrophic and that is if every visitor was nice and respectful, which is nearly impossible. Better off with YT videos and send them money if you care.
Wonderful place! I was born, and I live in the big, industrial city, but I was spent every summer holidays on te coutryside. Unfortunately normal, natural, quaiet places like that are less, and less in my country... I love Belarus! Beautiful country, and very nice people. Much love from Poland, Slavic Sister!
Its so nice that we can learn the ways of living in other countries particularly in eastern europe and former SSR. You see, Im from Philippines and I can say that we have almost the same way of living in rural areas.
Beautifully presented by a young woman who spoke English extremely well. I watched a documentary about Belarus several years ago and I thought then it would be a pleasant country to visit, all praise and thanks to the lady presenter.
WTF are you talking about, Belarus itself is a sh*thope country ruled by dictator, rural area is even worse, every sane person with positive IQ has already moved out of Belarus, it's a horrible horrible country
It's beautiful there. I'm in Northern Ireland, it's becoming so much busier here than when I was young. I love how quiet and peaceful it seems where you are. Never take peace and quiet for granted! Hope the war in Ukraine isn't causing you too much worry.
Thank you! I fully agree with you, it is getting harder these days to find quietness! The war is one of the most terrible things that is happening for the past decades... Never have I imagined that it would happen right at my doorstep, though I remember when we were studying the basics about Belarus: its history, geography, climate, economy, etc. There were lots of professors saying that one of the most unlucky aspects of our country is the strategic position in the centre of Europe inbetween 2 power states. They warned about it even when I was a pupil. It makes me so sad and angry that there is no count to wars, conflicts, hatred.
@@estherscegolsky1972 Yeah the issue with Belarus's position is that it would be immediately surrounded by NATO states if NATO ever attacked, which is why it is so important Russia takes back the former Russian lands so that they can push the front lines to near the mountains where there are choke-points.
@@BringDHouseDown , great analysis. Russia is such a flat plain, it would serve as a great place for defeat. However, the relative mountainous regions in the surrounding former Soviet satellite states would serve as bottlenecks.👍🏻
@Martin Cregan ..... NATO did not disband when the Soviet Union already collapsed, and when Russia asked to join, they were refused, that makes NATO's intentions very clear. The modern Western people* have no interest in attacking Russia.....can't say the same about the globalist governments in charge that are more anti-European than I$l@m though.
I was born in that region. We moved to Canada when I was 10years old. That was in 1977. This video made me emotional,the landscape and the feel brought back a lot of memories. Thank you. And your English is very good
French is truly beautiful) I just started learning it) Sometimes I may understand something since I have a good knowledge of Italian that also helped me understand Spanish) But French is very peculiar and I love it)
That is lingua franca) you are right, thanks to that we are able to communicate with each other now who are from different parts of the world) This fact always makes me amazed)
I grew up in Minsk, never got to travel to other major cities but we always went out to the forests and fields to relax in the summer, still remember those good old days… Hopefully I will be able to go back in the future and be able to experience that again
Pls that future place is the LORD GODs Heaven. A great place of utterly uncommon beauty HEs prepared for those who love HIM. Pls read John 14:2-3 I go to prepare a place for you.

This reminds me of my grandmothers home, where I grew up, its a much poorer village in the former Yugoslavia...now Croatia it’s called Kucibreg. We still used ox to plough fields and used a well for water, didn’t have running water in the village until 1992.There are only 10 people left in the village now. People are starting to develop the area, My grandmother left me 35 hectares the house and stable there. I now live in Canada and wish to go back when I retire. This was a wonderful video

This is a wonderful video. It shows how most of Europe used to live before industrial agriculture. It's bizarre that so many people in my country wish to get an acre or so of land and be as self-sufficient as possible; how life used to be, where if you work hard and make the best use of your land, you get rewards, not like today, modern life is rubbish. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for taking us with you.. Watching this before sleep was very peaceful.. it reminded me a lot of my early childhood without internet and stuff Greetings from a small town in the Netherlands
Greetings!) My heart melts when I see people saying that the video reminded of childhood and brought back good memories) It is a unique feeling we don't get quite often when getting old)
Somehow this video was compelling enough for watching in full. A simple but elegant one, beautifully taken to give us a true glimpse of your place. In my opinion this place is full of peace and serenity that couldn't be found at any metropolis around the world. Thanks for giving us a truly wonderful ten plus minutes.

Oh wait... How exactly DO you think this person is uploading videos to ... wait for it... youtube? Which is where? On the internet? I think your problem is the ignorance to think that someone who lives in the self proclaimed "poorer" area of a country that they don't have access to everything you have access to.
2 weeks down the line u will pack up and start-back to city...I have experienced myself...Those places are so beautiful that u cannot stay beyond 2 weeksAfter that u feel suffocated by the agony of silence !!! We city dwellers have become like that. Most of socialistic countries are like that. For a person who has grown-up in such a place for that person city makes him feel like how we feel in a village probably!
I confess that I was looking for information about the war between Russia and Ukraine, when I came across these images. Beautiful place in a fantastic blue sky. The simple life will always be the best life to live. Congratulations for the channel, well described and with beautiful images.
It is yet another footage showing Belarus I have seen. Belarus seems to be a wonderful country. One day, I would like to visit this place and see all the sights and enjoy nature. Greetings from Poland!

My dear, I do teavel a lot, have seen all six continents, and I can tell you the place where you are living is very amazing. Less population means space for peoples and nature ! Hope you can see that too
A nice Belarusian village tour. Thank you for taking us through ur village. Would like to see more of your place ,food and culture. Expecting to see more videos on similar sort.
I'm from a place far, far away from yours. It's Guwahati in the Indian state of Assam. There's just so much similarity in the places I saw in this video with some of those here. Greetings
Hi I am your new subscriber. I also came from a very poor community here in the Philippines. I could say that growing from such a community gave me the motivation to dream big and explore the world beyond our childhood place. Now I enjoy the opportunity of living and enjoying both the Rural and the Urban life.... Wishing you more success onwards...
Thank you Katsiaryna! You are a lovely, kind & intelligent woman. I'm 75, garden and work outdoors in rural USA. My family comes from Belarus, as farmers in Minsk area. I appreciate your work making this & other videos more than words can say. I wish we humans will evolve to love one another and appreciate all the goodness in the regular citizens of our nations. I wish you & your family, and other Belarusians wellness, peace, safety and joy.
Same. As a Polish person born shortly before political transformation, I remember those kinds of places existing in the east of our country. Nowadays they're nothing more than tourist hotspots. All charm is gone, replaced by consumerism. Cherish the tranquility you have, even at the price of lower wages, because one day it may all be gone, and you'll miss it terribly.
Beautiful village. Lovely land scape. Fascinating scenery, agriculture land, grass fields. Peaceful villages. No crowd, pollution & city glamour. You should be proud of such village which is your native place. I think inhabitants are happy despite poverty.
The landscape reminds me a lot of the Canadian prairies, Manitoba in particular. So many Ukrainians and Eastern Europeans settled Western Canada- including my family. After traveling to Ukraine, and seeing the similarities of the land, I understand why. Beautiful video, thank you for sharing. I hope to visit one day. ❤️🇨🇦
Well done on a well-made personal video! The pureness of the environment and people are assets to attract tourists to come and experience the country life of eastern Europe. Your English is very clear. Keep on promoting the unique sides of your village.
Thank you so much for taking me along with you on your journey through your life, I very much enjoy it and appreciate seeing you, I look forward to seeing more of you and your life, I would love to visit you and your country, please let me know more. God Bless You, I am from America
A lot of beautiful imagery, even if it is a poor country. Much of the scenery made me feel nostalgic about the place I grew up in. My ancestors were in the Ukraine for some generations, and migrated, first to Canada and later to Mexico, where I was second generation born. A lot the architecture and the country scenery was very similar to what we had back home. My people are German and Dutch Mennonites, but I see that we adopted a lot of Russian and/or Ukrainian culture from the time we were there. Cuisine, language and architecture. This video was a pleasure to watch.
Wow, what an incredible insight & terrific video. As an Australian from an agricultural background, it certainly opens my eyes as to how other people & countries manage. Thank you. Your English is also brilliant. Keep up the great informative videos.
@@KatsiarynaTerehovaYours mother's house is also beautiful and as you said the house is now a homestay and won several prizes for providing better facilities to guests. Could you give me the address of this homestay.
This is so simple, yet tells your story so well, as though I am right there with you as you narrate it. I live in India, where a lot of people live in poorer conditions than in your country ... REALLY poor. And there are millions of them in this condition. I have found that some of the poorest people who earn their wages on a daily basis are also some of the happiest I have seen. They don't know what the next day will bring and so, they live for that day, for that moment. The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence and people living in cities praise the clean and simple living in the countryside and people in the country are starry-eyed about all the "glitz" of the cities. The old Soviet countries are such a mystery to a lot of people around the world and such videos brings us a picture of how people live there. Thank you very much for bringing out such a simple, yet powerful video.
Thank you Katsiaryna for sharing thee beautiful town of your childhood. It is so beautiful and peaceful. I love in the city and eat everything that has no taste. I grew up in the countryside like yours and I miss that kind of life.

The greenery, natural land, simple village house, village animals, fresh vegitables was very captivative! So, was your unhurried natural voice..............wish you well. BTW I am Indian from mid-tropic state of Maharashtra.
Thank you! Very beautiful words!) I love this peace of nature and villages that are so far away from the buzz of big cities. It is the place where I truly belong.
Villages are always nice and soothing to look at. It's almost the same here as well. The greenaries, livestocks, vast empty lands are its assets. Old houses and childhood memoirs of village life are the things which give us joy when we walk down the memory lane.

Thank you for sharing this. Your homestead is beautiful. Even though I was born and raised in the USA, one part of me loves the idea of living your life. Being from cities has its benefits, but being self-sufficient and away from large populations has its advantages. Please be safe and take care.
Greetings from California. What a lovely video, Katsiaryna, it reminds me of the American midwest. My grandfather was from Belarus, in the Pinsk region. My grandmother was from Lithuania. Thank you for a view of the homeland.
I’ve been in Korma as a bus driver picking up children who suffers from Chernobyl and bringing them to Belgium. I have done this 3 times. Once I stayed a week with the locals. Belarusians are very warm and nice people. Where I was after a few days , the father of the house send their family away, because he had not food enough to feed me and my colleague.

Hi from Toronto,Canada. I really loved your video. God bless,Darren
I don't know if there's some people who are focusing on poverty but for me I am focusing on the beautiful nature and the calm atmosphere which is something that you can't buy with money these days because peace of mind is the real treasure not money. I am adding this place to my list to visit it someday , great work you did on showing us this beautiful video
@@RussianFans-vn6cj What? This video was about this place in Belarus, not religion.
Richest countries, it's my opinion ❤️🙏
I grew up in the countryside and whenever I return there I feel an innate sense of peace and wellbeing, something I don't really get where I live. I believe unrestricted access to nature is so important for us as organic, spiritual and social creatures. That seems to be disappearing. Bizarrely it feels much lonelier living with a hundred others, stacked in little boxes on top of one another, than it does being surrounded by empty fields. Then again, somebody who grew up in the city might feel the opposite.
I'm from India. I also never see here proverty. But lots of richness of nature.
Exactly!
To be poor is not a shame, but rather brings out the beauty of oneself.
You live in a very beautiful place and thank you for sharing with us.
Respect and love from a South African Boer.
I love the place where I live no matter the fact that we struggle in economic terms) The beauty of my home is something that I miss wherever I go) Thank you!)

What does it mean to be poort ? They are richer than many who think they are rich but are poor.
TH-cam needs more content like this. You'd be surprised just how much you have in common with rural America.
No,these people are alot cleaner,we have nothing but drug addicted homeless bums.
More anastasias asking for money?
I was thinking the exact same thing. Looks like plenty of rural areas in the US.
It may be poor, but its also a privilege to grow up in a place so rural and so beautiful
But look at the vast wealth,innovation and jobs created by London,New York and Tokyo.

Beautiful life ❤❤❤❤❤from India
Most people would agree with that
Katsiaryna,
You may consider your birth-place "poor" in terms of money but, look around you!
You're so *rich* in natural beauty, clean air and sunshine, away from pollution, city traffic jams, artificial noise (instead of the sound of birds, chooks and cows grazing), and above all, the unbearable stress that people living in small 'shoe-boxes' in cities suffer daily.
You are blessed dear girl!
Best wishes from a distant "grand-father" from Australia. 😃😃

@@RussianFans-vn6cj wake up bro what's holy in that🙃 Humanity and forgiveness is the only holy thing...you guys please learn that
thats why so many belarusians dont want west and europe, after joining eu here in lithuania many land was sold to foreigners and many green fields/forests destroyed in order to make factories, new tech stuff etc, even in cities it became urban hell, while in past in soviets times it was all green.. ik lukashenko is far far from good leader, but EU is not perfect too.

Most people in NY would consider this a luxury vacation.
One of the biggest fallacies of the west in recent times is the belief that money is the most important thing in determining quality of life.
Shut up fella. If I freeze your assets/bank account...what quality of life would you have?? No food, shelter or water.
It’s romantic to think living in an undeveloped country off the land will bring you a better quality of life but in reality it’s a pretty brutal unforgiving way to live. A lot of unnecessary death pain and suffering. Life expectancy birth related mortalities and so many other things that you take for granted in the city. If you think living in the city is rough you are not going to cut it out in the country. There is a money ceiling one you reach it your life doesn’t get much better and that is the reason people are unhappy they are prioritising a little bit more money but not getting a fair pay off. Money is not the only important thing but it’s the solution to most problems for people who haven’t hit that money ceiling yet.
'Vacation' is the nessesery word here. Once this becomes the only life you have, most things you are taking for granted right now would be wiped out.
My parents' families originated from similar environments, and although not perfect, modern city life is definitely easier.
It's not even about money in most cases.
"Most people in NY"? In what universe? Speak for yourself.
Prepare to live n d farm quite and simple no compitation as long as water n electricity available is a big ok for me
Beautiful. This reminds me very much my childhood. I grew up in Poland, in quite similar environment. We used to have 1,5 hectare of our own cropland, with 2 cows, some 6 pigs and plenty of hens, ducks, rabbits and other live stock. We grew all vegitables alone. We cultivated the land alone, but we did not have any horse and my father was always borrowing the horses from his more wealthy neighbors. I have smelled similar flavor of such life again, while travelling in Belarus some 25 years ago. I am missing that so much, however I know how difficult the life on such a farm is. There is plenty of work every day, even on Sunday the animals need to fed and the cows need to be milked. Everything is far away, school, church, shop, friends. But we constituted a real family - working together, spending time together, sharing good and bad things together. Working on this small farm was a good school of life. Later our farm burned down and was never rebuilt. My parents went to work and our lives have changed.
Sorry to hear about your farm 😞
It is tough to live in the village. But when I look at how machinery can make everything easier than before, you may give it a try. As for the livestock it is a huge responsibility to look after all of them. Farmland has its blossoms, but before getting it you must go through dirt.
How sad. I do hope your folks are settled now. Best wishes from Scotland.
Most polish people in the US are pretty well off. I love the people, and I'd like to visit Poland. God bless.

Hello. I am from Cuba and have been living in Belarus for one year and a half...sadly I will leave Belarus in the next few months...I know some of the main problems of Belarus but I love this country, I have been lucky enough to be able to visit the big cities as well as the villages.....I have partially learned the language, I have made several friends.....I will never forget that just arriving here a taxi driver asked me where I was from and when I said "Cuba" he replied (in Russian) "Cubans are friends"...it really touched my heart. Belorussian people is wonderful, even the smallest kids are well educated, Belorussian women are beyond beautiful, I had never been outside of my home country so Belarus will be forever in my deepest memories. I wish you all the best.
Living simple life doesn't mean that one is poor. It is possible that less resources are used & hence people have less money but it seems nature is abundant. Beautiful video.
Correct. Western society invented the silly idea of poor and rich but in reality, lot of "poor" people have a much richer life in "poor" countries than westerners in their tiny flats that they repay for 20-25 years.
Good philosophy but you need money for health, education, clothes etc. not grass and rivers.
Money is measure of cost of any physical thing. Money itself is not a commodity. Only money will not suffice & in the end physical things required. To ease the transaction, money came in practice. In future, this money model may get changed.
@@joshjenesiss Poor doesn't mean no access to healthcare or clothes. Let's forget education.
Poor is a mindset. A mental state. To live poorly is less about a life without luxury and more about incorrect or non useful thoughts and ideas.
Beautiful!!!! What a sweet video and wonderful surprise to stumble on this, especially in the midst of what is happening in Ukraine. This is a dear reminder that people are the people and simply want to live and, in this case, live simply. Thank you.

If you have someone you're happy with and food and a safe place to live then what else matters?
A peaceful life is all a human being wants if they were conditioned for such. You take most people who grew up in a big city, and they'd be dying of boredom in a town like this. It is very important what you were conditioned for.

I absolutely love your village. It seems so peaceful and tranquil. Slower pace of life and actually living life not based on material things
Is there a place where I can work on my Porsche if I move there
Spot on! Greetings!
It was not tranquil and peaceful between 1941 - 1945, caught in the middle of the biggest war the World has ever seen, Nazi Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union, called Operation Barbarossa. It is very nice that it is peaceful now, but I wonder if the ghosts of the past linger, either in the minds of the older population, as told to them by their parents and grandparents who were lucky to have survived it. Ukraine lived through it too, and continues to suffer so badly now as we all know............
@AboveItAll I cant even start to Imagine what went on there. Glad to hear all is back to normal
@Dan Rook I thought a Porsche was suppose to to never break?
Almost 10,000 comments with most of us saying you are not poor. Fresh air and peace is more wealth than many people know. God bless you!
Since I get a lot of comments on poverty and comparisons, I would like to clarify some of the notions:
1. The aim of the video was to show the contrast with the regions within Belarus (for example, the city of Minsk is richer in these terms than our entire Gomel region and Korma district!). I did not compare the subsistence minimum of Belarus and other countries like Kenya and other countries of Africa, etc. The subsistence minimum is calculated in regards to the well-being of a Belarusian economy.
2. Being poor and live in poverty are two connected but different notions. I am aware of worldwide hunger and poverty in certain regions. It pains me to say but we are lucky to have the possibility to cultivate land and get produce to survive. That is why we do what we do: agriculture - one of the main sectors of Belarusian economy.
3. The wages (salary) given in the video are before taxes. It is a monthly salary! This amount is enough to pay for utilities and food. No more than that.
You guys are self sustained, that's not poverty. I live in cosmopolitan rich city, earnings here is 10 times higher, but life is hard. We live bill to bill. Compare to ours, Life is much better in third world country than first world countries. Poverty is in USA, UK, and in EU. I saw Romanian and Iranian guys selling tea in Nepal, they are much happier there.

I think everyone can see glimpses of "where I grew up" or "the old country" in these images of Belarus.
That house you showed reminded me a lot of my aunt's house. And it looked like it was the exact perfect temperature outside for just not going back in the house for a while. Stay out there, enjoy some sunshine, and live life.

I totally agree. Reminded me of my grandmother homestead in phx that no longer exists. I’m glad I had a chance to live there for a season worth oranges, grapefruit and pecans , pomegranates love this life and land
Reminded me of my great grandmothers house. She was widowed with 8 children and took in laundry to exist. I always wondered where she got water to do other peoples laundry as there was no obvious water source nearby. People were tougher back then. I still remember the smell of baking bread from her wood stove.

We did install the Ukrainian government through a violent coup, and our state department, an active military major Tulsi Gabbard and state department goon Victoria Nuland have all admitted that we are running at least 25 bio labs in Ukraine on Russias border.
But you go ahead and defend the Azov Battalion (funded by the US for that violent coup) and the Ukrainian puppet government and the bio labs. Go ahead and show your extreme ignorance because you feel obligated to root for the “good guys.” We see your emotional ignorance, and it’s a huge disappointment to humanity.

Its so nice that we can learn the ways of living in other countries particularly in eastern europe and former SSR. You see, Im from Philippines and I can say that we have almost the same way of living in rural areas.
I agree and think this same way of living is what we did in Arkansas when I was growing up in the 1980s.

The war is one of the most terrible things that is happening for the past decades... Never have I imagined that it would happen right at my doorstep, though I remember when we were studying the basics about Belarus: its history, geography, climate, economy, etc. There were lots of professors saying that one of the most unlucky aspects of our country is the strategic position in the centre of Europe inbetween 2 power states. They warned about it even when I was a pupil. It makes me so sad and angry that there is no count to wars, conflicts, hatred.
@@KatsiarynaTerehova i much older than you but i remember that warning of geographical position used as war fields .i lived in Latvia
@@estherscegolsky1972 Yeah the issue with Belarus's position is that it would be immediately surrounded by NATO states if NATO ever attacked, which is why it is so important Russia takes back the former Russian lands so that they can push the front lines to near the mountains where there are choke-points.
@@BringDHouseDown , great analysis. Russia is such a flat plain, it would serve as a great place for defeat. However, the relative mountainous regions in the surrounding former Soviet satellite states would serve as bottlenecks.👍🏻
@Martin Cregan ..... NATO did not disband when the Soviet Union already collapsed, and when Russia asked to join, they were refused, that makes NATO's intentions very clear.
The modern Western people* have no interest in attacking Russia.....can't say the same about the globalist governments in charge that are more anti-European than I$l@m though.

@@KatsiarynaTerehova yup, u r right....peace should prevail....war is a dangerous option.

Poor or rich everyone have to admit that this place looks beautiful and has this nice countryside vibe
It looks very nice where you live and you seem very likeable. Thank you for your videos.
It is yet another footage showing Belarus I have seen. Belarus seems to be a wonderful country. One day, I would like to visit this place and see all the sights and enjoy nature. Greetings from Poland!
It may be poor but is rich in nature, so much greenery and tranquility, I wish my country (Malta) was that rich in Nature.
And full of Soul ! I would love to live in it :). In my country (Belgium), one would give a lot of money to buy such a house. Blessings to you All !!!
Greetings from Somalia 🇸🇴 to the Belarusian people. Such a beautiful country ❤️.
You're not in Somalia, that country has no internet. Stop the cap you Muslim immigrant
@jimpachi haihachima maybe you are somewhere where you get the Internet every 7 months once. Somalia 🇸🇴 has a 4G Internet for a very long time. Am very glad the oxygen we breath in not in your hands millions would have died such a hater. You must be a keyboard warrior. Pathetic sub human like you
Why are you such a dick dawg who hurt you lol?
@@jimpachihaihachima1753don’t hate the individual... hate the system...
If your from somalia you live in Europe now.
My dear,
I do teavel a lot, have seen all six continents, and I can tell you the place where you are living is very amazing. Less population means space for peoples and nature !
Hope you can see that too
A nice Belarusian village tour. Thank you for taking us through ur village. Would like to see more of your place ,food and culture. Expecting to see more videos on similar sort.
Thank you!) it takes time but I am planning on introducing more videos of this kind)
I'm from a place far, far away from yours. It's Guwahati in the Indian state of Assam. There's just so much similarity in the places I saw in this video with some of those here. Greetings
Hi I am your new subscriber. I also came from a very poor community here in the Philippines. I could say that growing from such a community gave me the motivation to dream big and explore the world beyond our childhood place.
Now I enjoy the opportunity of living and enjoying both the Rural and the Urban life....
Wishing you more success onwards...
You are very fortunate to live such a serene, peaceful and beautiful life. There is no greater wealth than peace and health.
Thank you Katsiaryna! You are a lovely, kind & intelligent woman. I'm 75, garden and work outdoors in rural USA. My family comes from Belarus, as farmers in Minsk area. I appreciate your work making this & other videos more than words can say. I wish we humans will evolve to love one another and appreciate all the goodness in the regular citizens of our nations. I wish you & your family, and other Belarusians wellness, peace, safety and joy.
Thank you ☺️
Thank you so much for the video! I spent my happiest years of youth in Belarus. Endlessly support this amazing country!
There a millions of refugees who are most capable of taking care of these abandoned farms and buildings: Belarus open your hearts to these refugees
I didn't know anything about Belarus, but now I know this beautiful place. Thanks for the beautiful images. Congratulations directly from Brazil! 👏👏👏
Greetings ☺️
This is so beautiful. I remember this kind of villages from my childhood in Poland. Right now they are more modern and full of vehicles.
right
Same. As a Polish person born shortly before political transformation, I remember those kinds of places existing in the east of our country. Nowadays they're nothing more than tourist hotspots. All charm is gone, replaced by consumerism. Cherish the tranquility you have, even at the price of lower wages, because one day it may all be gone, and you'll miss it terribly.
Красиво! Wow, I am fascinated by the way you presented the village. Although there are not many people left, at least the nature is wonderful.
Im glad I found this TH-cam channel & this video. Belarus 🇧🇾 seems like a beautiful country. I’m a fan of farms & colonial style homes
Thank you for sharing your corner of the world with those of us who may otherwise never have a chance to see it.
Thank you! I really wish you to see it and hope one day we all will have the possibility to witness the world peaceful and without limitations.
Beautiful village. Lovely land scape. Fascinating scenery, agriculture land, grass fields.
Peaceful villages. No crowd, pollution & city glamour.
You should be proud of such village which is your native place.
I think inhabitants are happy despite poverty.
Thank you! It is true, people hold on to their homes, families and the land where they were born)
@@KatsiarynaTerehova there's plenty of water and good soil . ... ain't poor!🤔
Sangat indah pemandangan alam di sana
The landscape reminds me a lot of the Canadian prairies, Manitoba in particular. So many Ukrainians and Eastern Europeans settled Western Canada- including my family. After traveling to Ukraine, and seeing the similarities of the land, I understand why. Beautiful video, thank you for sharing. I hope to visit one day. ❤️🇨🇦
It is interesting to see that many emmigrants settled in places that reminded them their home
muddy waters
What a beautiful landscape. The woods look amazing, dark ground really rich in many species of flora.
Well done on a well-made personal video!
The pureness of the environment and people are assets to attract tourists to come and experience the country life of eastern Europe.
Your English is very clear. Keep on promoting the unique sides of your village.
Thank you so much for taking me along with you on your journey through your life, I very much enjoy it and appreciate seeing you, I look forward to seeing more of you and your life, I would love to visit you and your country, please let me know more. God Bless You, I am from America
Thank you ☺️
A lot of beautiful imagery, even if it is a poor country. Much of the scenery made me feel nostalgic about the place I grew up in. My ancestors were in the Ukraine for some generations, and migrated, first to Canada and later to Mexico, where I was second generation born. A lot the architecture and the country scenery was very similar to what we had back home. My people are German and Dutch Mennonites, but I see that we adopted a lot of Russian and/or Ukrainian culture from the time we were there. Cuisine, language and architecture. This video was a pleasure to watch.
Thank you for sharing a bit of your story)
@Berg Hey! am looking for the Mexican Melipona Beecheii (stingless bee) Can you suggest me how to get??
Nobody gives a sht
Wow, what an incredible insight & terrific video. As an Australian from an agricultural background, it certainly opens my eyes as to how other people & countries manage. Thank you. Your English is also brilliant. Keep up the great informative videos.
Thank you so much ❤️
@@KatsiarynaTerehova
Come to me in Philippines I marry you ..
@@KatsiarynaTerehovaYours mother's house is also beautiful and as you said the house is now a homestay and won several prizes for providing better facilities to guests. Could you give me the address of this homestay.
This is so simple, yet tells your story so well, as though I am right there with you as you narrate it.
I live in India, where a lot of people live in poorer conditions than in your country ... REALLY poor. And there are millions of them in this condition.
I have found that some of the poorest people who earn their wages on a daily basis are also some of the happiest I have seen. They don't know what the next day will bring and so, they live for that day, for that moment.
The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence and people living in cities praise the clean and simple living in the countryside and people in the country are starry-eyed about all the "glitz" of the cities.
The old Soviet countries are such a mystery to a lot of people around the world and such videos brings us a picture of how people live there.
Thank you very much for bringing out such a simple, yet powerful video.
Thanks for your beautiful video, like your village
Ram, a very nice comentar, thank you, very much, Good bless you.
@@hubertkaiser8581 Danke Hubert. Sehr positiv Einsatz 🙏
Thank you Katsiaryna for sharing thee beautiful town of your childhood. It is so beautiful and peaceful. I love in the city and eat everything that has no taste. I grew up in the countryside like yours and I miss that kind of life.
Dear..We had 2 Russian 🚜 Tractors ones name was Bylarus other T.15 made in Kharkov . it was in 1960s Your region and Russia is loved and respected in India 🇮🇳 We found the same warmth n love in St Petersberg.. Moscow etc.Hardworking simple people ..
@@RussianFans-vn6cj Also, watch videos of David Wood, Apostate Prophet, Christian Prince to know the truth of quran.
@@pinklotus7671 just watched sheikh umad's video on watermelon hadith 😂😂
@@RussianFans-vn6cj i request you brother to study bhagwat gita & learn how to live peacefully in actually without begging all over the world like imran khanN.
Stop lying you people never supported Russia
@Fawad Khan, achieve success by reading kuran? 🤣🤣🤣
It was very soothing and relaxing to see simple village, void of automobiles, large buildings and machines lying everywhere in the yard. The greenery, natural land, simple village house, village animals, fresh vegitables was very captivative! So, was your unhurried natural voice..............wish you well. BTW I am Indian from mid-tropic state of Maharashtra.
Thank you! Very beautiful words!) I love this peace of nature and villages that are so far away from the buzz of big cities. It is the place where I truly belong.
Villages are always nice and soothing to look at. It's almost the same here as well. The greenaries, livestocks, vast empty lands are its assets. Old houses and childhood memoirs of village life are the things which give us joy when we walk down the memory lane.
Piękne miejsce i piękne domy ,pozazdrościć tak zdrowego życia blisko natury bez urzędnika na każdym kroku jak w eurokolchozie
Tokladnie zgadzam sie
Piękne miejsce z prawdziwymi kołchozami, klasycznym sowieckim, skorumpowanym biurokratyzmem i dochodami na poziomie 1200 PLN.
Dziewczyna opowiada o strefie czarnobylskiej, państwowym gospodarstwie rolnym, niskich dochodach i jak ludzie uciekają z tego pięknego miejsca, a ten o eurokołchozie🤦
Crikey, I live in the UK and I would love to live there where you are. It may be a poor area but what a beautiful place. All that open space, rivers and green pastures. That is luxury right there and you would need millions of pounds in the UK to live in an area like that.
Correct I would also love to live there.
Poor? Why are you talking about UK?
@@kumargaurav9417 comparing to the poverty line in the UK. Same could be said in NZ.
@@Kiwichico Dead true, the Ardern Famine
Me too I live in the Swedish suburbs and it feels like a prison. I would love to live in a place like that
Thank you for my first "visit" to Belarus! It doesn't look too terribly different than parts of the US midwest, where I grew up. I would feel at home there...peace.
Hey, James. I'm in SE Nebraska and when I saw the vegetation and roads and maybe the ramshackled structures..that's exactly what I thought. That could have been shot right here!
You would not be at home there living under a totalitarian dictator
@@seybertooth9282 If they are isolated..and it looks that way..they may not be affected by the government. Lukashenko (President) is no doubt under the shadow of Putin but is considered independent since the revolution in 1918.
I thought the same thing as I watched, that it reminds me of the mid-west, too!
It looks identical to the farmland north of Flint Michigan. BTW Belarus Is a sister climate to Michigan .
It seems so beautiful, I would love to live a humble more natural life like this, the area looks so calm and peaceful.
Beautiful country, is there tour guides available to travel with you for a week?
What an awesome place, I'm afraid that if I came to visit I would never come back home. Contrary to what you may have heard about the United States I live in a small town in Iowa and things are not that much different. I raise a flock of chickens and tend to my gardens in the summer. My wife puts up the vegetables we grow and makes wine out of the peaches, apples and berries we harvest.
I know that rural US have some similarities)
Thank you for giving a glimpse into your life)
Yeah. But nevertheless, in US still you can chose between Iowa and NY or LA. You can grow chickens and ducks, or you can make some crazy stressfull business in huge city on one of the coasts. You have a choice.
@@hansolo2797 not really, In the city, you won't even be able to rent a 1 bedroom apartment, you will have to live in a shared room and your life will be miserable as hell
@@philoslother4602 not really what? Didn't i say it would be stressfull?
@@philoslother4602 ...only if you are lazy and don’t work.
You and I live very different lives in very different places. This video makes me envious of the simplicity and peace.
You bring honor and dignity to your home and family. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you 🙏🏼
Amazing Documentary, I travelled 3 times to Belarus ... people are generous and so kind.
Thank you ☺️
Appreciate the glimpse at life in Belarus, looks very pretty. All of us do the best we can with what we have and still find happiness along the way. Your English is outstanding.
Thank you for sharing this. Your homestead is beautiful. Even though I was born and raised in the USA, one part of me loves the idea of living your life. Being from cities has its benefits, but being self-sufficient and away from large populations has its advantages. Please be safe and take care.
Thank you ❤️
Best regards ☺️
How beautiful this village is ❤ love to visit 1 day. Love from Bharat ❤🇮🇳

Greetings from California.
What a lovely video, Katsiaryna, it reminds me of the American midwest.
My grandfather was from Belarus, in the Pinsk region. My grandmother was from Lithuania.
Thank you for a view of the homeland.
Wow, Pinsk is near to the region where I live) Your ancestral story is incredible)
Very good country and attractive nature seen.your vlog is nice.iam from India 🇮🇳
