very thankful Yakutia has a KZfaq documentarian

I have no idea how this channel ended up in my suggestions, but you're amazing. What a beautiful and fascinating place you live in.

This is a perfect demonstration of human wisdoms (to be precise, Wisdoms of people in Yakutsk!) how to live in such extreme weather conditions with best harmony! Huge respect!!👍🏻

This reminds me of the opening scene of Frozen when they are harvesting ice in blocks just like those. Seems like it was a similar practice in northern Scandinavia

-24 C... its not that cold outside... I am speechless. Really interesting video. Thank you.

*Life in Yakutia ❤*

You are a very sweet lady and so gracious!

Your underground ice house is used in some areas, in other more temperate areas, to store vegetables. Your people are very resourceful, and I enjoyed learning about them through your videos.

When its 20 degress celcius in Fiji we feel cold lol

this channel is incredible! it's just so cool to know people live like this

I just found your channel and subscribed immediately :) It must be hard work to get all that ice, but it looks like very good quality water. The use of permafrost is really ingenious too! I suppose if there were water pipes the water would just freeze solid during winter, so the traditional way makes the most sense

I love your postings. I have forwarded your posts on to farms near me. You are living our history.

I'm Indian...I love watching ur videos

Yeayy! Always wondering how life in yakutia looks like. Glad to find your channel🌸

Ooo I subscribed you videos are so interested. I am living in Jamaica and the temperature right now is 21°c Noway near you guys stunning -39°c

Simple and straight to the point I like it.

Amazing, never heard about Yakutia before, thanks for sharing about your country 🤗

This is so interesting! Thank You Very Much for sharing this!!

Honestly - you have the kindest eyes I've ever seen : )

I bet this water is so tasty. I’m so glad your channel came up in my suggestions!

Very nice video, thank you Maria

that sound of the snow underneath your feet is just music to me.

Just found your channel today and subscribed. I’m watching from Los Angeles, California, USA and have enjoyed 7 of your videos so far. Thank you for sharing your part of the world and culture with us. I hope your channel continues to grow and hope you are well and safe.

Start watching your video's. Your place was so amazing 😍 watching from Philippines .

Your channel is interesting and very informative. I learned a lot❤️

Amazing video, I might visit next year in February

Really interesting

Thank you excellent video

Excellent

Thank you. I hope you will increase the volume in future posts..

thank u, very interesting issue

I love your videos

I'm really enjoying your channel. I'm from the northest region of Brazil, near the Equator, and here the temperatures are at least 25ºC (near the coast, where I live). Here we expend too much electricity on cool stuff. It is very interesting to see how your people live in a extremely different climate, and I'm really loving seeing your videos and learning more about Yakutia and the culture.

Thanks. In New Zealand, most houses are supplied by water from underground pipes, but we are advised to store at least seven days supply for each person living in the house. The reason is that New Zealand can have earthquakes, and in the event of a large one, it might take up to seven days before the local government can start supplying water again.

It's like movie to me, and You're the director, actor.

So almost everything you use comes straight from the land and lakes? That is really interesting. The place is so clean and pure there that you probably have the best water and food available. Do your houses have plumbing or is it too cold in the winter that it would freeze water in the pipes? How do you keep the inside of the house warm?

Very interesting , Maria 👍🏻🤗👏🏻👏🏻🤔 It's hard ,but beautiful life , I suppose 🤔😊👍🏻🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️🙋🏼‍♀️

I really like your video love from INDIA

exactly what it is Summer in Yakutia. Is it still in the negative ? what is the highest temperature you have experienced? What activities do you do in summers. Im sure you must have your special festivals or occasions, Do you celebrate all that during the warmer months ? does any produce grow there ? where do you get your vegetables and fruits from ? Can you show us your supermarket and what you get there ? i know these are a lot of questions. I sometimes feel like living your life for a few months just to experience the complete opposite of my life is here in India. I was in Toronto for a few years and the coldest I had experienced was -42 and we were mostly bundled up at home with our heaters on and we still had hot water flowing from our taps. but your life makes me really appreciate the efforts you have to put just for drinking water. I am humbled. please do show more of your life. Thanks

Hi Maria, that’s very interesting I never thought people have to defrost ice for drinking water . Would you make a video how you wash your dishes and clothes or have a bath or shower without running water , please ?

Thank you dudine

Amazing, the opposite of our place here in Florida. It seemed like you guys are meeting all the challenges in life. It's nice to see unspoiled people like you. Thank you.

wao! impressive,thank you for showing us.

Make daily vlogs you are so amazing lady and your surrounding is so beautiful - love form asia (India)

Thanks for the wonderful video! I would also like to know if there is a special Yakutian skincare routine. Given the harsh conditions, do you put special type of lotion or cream?

I would like to visit your area oneday inshallah. I am from Bangladesh its rainy and hot. My father grew in Russia

You have unique lifestyle. I live in the tropic and 10-16 degree celsius is already bone chiling for me😂. The frostbite thing is scary.

amazing thank you for making this video.

Love the way she says its negative

Hi Maria can you do a video on Yakutia athletes and sports, does your region produce any Russian winter Olympic team members? Say like speed skating or nordic skiing?

I would love to see what it looks like inside the bulus. Could you make a video of what a bulus looks like inside?

Those ice bars look like pieces of yummy cakes.

I really want to move there permanently. So peaceful and living the way nature want you to live.

Mast@ from india

Nice to know about ur living conditions Keep it up

So in Frozen 🥶 movie Kristoff was cutting ice for water supply

Wow. It's a great narrative.

I keep watchin ur blogs quite sometimes .. plz show us how j guys wash clothes and how u dry it and how u take bath

How one gets drinking water at ur place is really tiresome. Life is adventurous but hard for daily routines. Salute to Yakutiyas. Thanks for enlightening all of us about your life & traditions. Adv R K Dwivedi Delhi, India 🇮🇳

How deep does the bulus go to get to the permafrost? You mentioned on another video how hot it gets in summer there, I’m so surprised it can literally keep ice frozen!

When we have -15˚ in Denmark there’s warnings in the news about the temperature 😂 How many liters do you calculate for a daily need? For each person? I presume that you use water from the lake for washing?

Watching your videos.. 💚💚💚 Do you still boil the water for drinking.. or it’s fine to drink like that?

Interesting, I wonder how the water supply in the city works ? I would guess there might be all sorts of problems with pipes getting frozen or the water reservoir getting frozen.

Literally i love your place and your content also. But please make you voice high a lil bit for us to hear what youre saying. Literally my phone is in highest volume. 😅

I love you channel, somehow it ended up in my seggested videos! :) As Im reading about permafrost, it says its starting to melt due to climate change. Have you seen or heard of anything like that in your area? That would be super interesting to me. Thank you :)))

This is so impressive that I am (as a Brazilian ) shocked! I'm wondering about your psychology health because some people say that the temperature is totally connect to our feelings. Do you think it's true?

Your videos are awesome but the volume is very low comparatively to other's. 💕 From Nepal🇳🇵🤩

Hi, Maria! Thank you for these videos about your amazing people and place. I'm in Vermont in the USA and I've been obsessively watching videos about Yakutia all week. What a fascinating place and culture. I'm curious. WHY do you store up ice for the year? You mention all of the lakes; can't you just get access to the water all-year-round? Oh...but then you'd have to be trekking to the lake on a regular basis because you can't use pipes in permafrost? Plus, pipes would've been quite the expense .... is it just that it's easier to do all the work over a couple of weeks in November and then just have the water available in the bulu all year round...Almost, for your people a hundred years ago a luxury, having all that water available and close to hand. Wow...I think I answered my own question. Just easiest to do it that way, right?

Hi Maria! When you boil water to cook pasta for example, do you use the drinking water?

I love to watch ur place i wish to visit

Do you boil the water before cooking or drinking it? Isn’t it dirty?

Are you guys used to the reflection of the sun hitting the snow? I would go snow blind right away seeing all white all the time

Is there natural hot water sources in and around yakutia

What is the temperature inside bulus during summer?

Hi maria how about people who lives in the city in apartment buildings ,how do you preserve drinking water?

Very interesting information. Do you boil or filter this water before drinking?

Thank you as always for a very interesting video. I'm curious: How do people in the villages dig the holes in the permafrost required to make underground storage spaces like the one you showed? Is a shovel sufficient? Or do people have to get out pickaxes and such to pick away at the permafrost?

Do you boil the water from the barrel before drinking it ?

try to raise the volume of your videos or else speak a little bit louder so that it will be audible for us.... otherwise you are doing a great job. best wishes for you..............

But is it safe to drink basically lake water? do the extremely cold temperatures "clean" the water or something?

Do you have to boil this water before you use it?

I am from India, Can you suggest any tourism packages during summer.

That great how to defense ur live

Do you purify the water before you drink it ? I know drinking water where certain animals live or habitat can be very dangerous..

Sorry, this might be a stupid question. But how often do people take a bath in Yakutsk?

do u have icehockey? or skiing in yakutia? or any Wintersports? also Saunas? its sooooo cold there? also food: grill ? barbeque? not raw meat? its amazing Yakutia... but sooo ocold and you speak English very good ! my compliments!

Hi Maria. So you don’t filter the water before you drink it?

i am now curious how they get the water they bathe with

😍🥰🤗

How to bath if no pumping water? Do you all bath daily ?

How do you purify it for drinking?

How is it -25C but you don’t have water vapor coming out of your mouth when you’re speaking?

Cold like that wish to have curry and make spicy

Bulus would be like Root cellars here

Just did the math on how thick you said dudine, 14 - 16 inches is a solid freeze in the Dakotas, we barely get 8 - 12 inches thick 20 - 31 cm) thickness of our area, Montana is barely closer but not that cold

Are there some kind of pipeline for water in the city ??

GG comrades .

It looks like lime jello on a massive scale.

Is this water pure enough?

The water ice kinda dark do you drink it directly or you have to boil it?
