Am I in a Russian fairytale? 🌾 // village VLOG

This video is about my day-trip from Izhevsk, Russia to a horse farm in a village. It was like a real Russian fairytale! We stayed in a traditional wooden house, went to a banya (Russian sauna), enjoyed the Russian nature, rode an endangered breed of horses native to the Udmurt Republic - the Vyatka Horse, hanged out with farm animals, learned about Russian history and traditions and much more!

What a fantastic way to end the Summer. 😍 With everyone back to university here, things are changing fast, leaves are slowly changing color and Autumn will be here soon. I would love to visit a place like that. A place to get away from it all. Just turn off the electronics and unplug from the chaos of society and just reconnect to nature and what it has to offer. The land just goes on for miles and miles. You never know where you’ll end up next. I really enjoyed this video and all the content you have posted up! You really have come a long way in your videos, I still remember the first video you ever made. I hope to see more videos from you very soon, until then, take care! ☺️

This farmer has a lot of land and very nice buildings in a pretty location - plus horses. That's a very lucky farmer. This looks like a great trip. Of course I would like to go. Watch out for that vodka. It makes it easy to go from smart to stupid in a matter of minutes. Your small dose seemed to have an agreeable effect, but the borderline is closer than one imagines in the moment. Thanks for bringing us with you.

You brought back many memories for me Elena such as hand milking, feeding the hens sheep and goats and getting water from the well. Diolch yn fawr as we say in Welsh. You looked so happy in the film I hope that feeling stays with you.

It looks a lot like Alberta, Canada, with the landscape, the horses and cattle, and even the small wooden houses existed here when the area was first settled. It's not surprising that a lot of people from Ukraine and Russia moved here, it feels like I was watching a video from a few hours' drive away, not halfway around the world. Really enjoyed it, and looks like you did too.

Yes the Russian country side looks wonderful! I have a couple of questions: how does a hat keep you cool in a sauna? Is it soaked in cold water or something. Also the hitting with the birch branches does it sting afterwards? Russia is huge your never going to run out of villages ha,ha.

@elenastravels 2 жыл бұрын

Hey! :) From what I've found online, felt hats keep the air around your head at a comfortable temperature, that's why people wear them. Felt is a good insulator. The hitting doesn't sting cause the sticks are covered with leaves :)
