Return To The Belarus Chernobyl Zone...With Shopping Bags 🇧🇾

"Sit down, I dont like it when you stand!" I had tears in my eyes when I heard that line. My late nana always said that to us. Whoever comes in the house, has to sit down, have a cup of tea, eat a little and then be on their ways. Nobody comes in my nanas house and leaves in haste. She even hated if we talked on the doorstep. "Come inside, have a sip of water and talk what you have to over a tea". Comfort and pampering was sorr of forced upon you when you were in her presence. I suppose it's quite common thousands of miles away with babushkas too. For a second I saw my nana in her.

This one really got to me. Thinking all the things this lady has seen and lived through. So glad you did this Benjamin!💖

[@FromBelarusToUSA]

🙏🏻It reminded me so bad about my own grandma who also lived in a tiny village in Gomel Region (Belarus) she was dressing exactly the same, she was talking exactly the same and she was also super kind and welcoming. I spent so much time there as a kid. My grandma had a horse and same tools for taking care of the soil before you plant anything in there. She had bunch of chickens, a cow, couple pigs, a dog and cats. I was riding bicycle through those birch trees till you literally don't feel your butt cuz it's not smooth road. And then next day you can't sit down🤣 All that nature of my home land, grandma and seeing all of that made me cry😭😭😭 this is my childhood🥺 Goodness my lovely Belarus and all the memories❤️❤️❤️ always in my heart no matter where I am...❤️

[@FromBelarusToUSA]

@@Artlitv я из Гомеля, но бабушка моя жила в деревне Зялёны Гай (зелёный сад) это недалеко от Азделино. Зялёны Гай настолько меленькая деревня, что там только один магазин и ферма. И две улицы домов. Школа была очень маленькая давно, но когда я была ребенком, она уже давно не работала. Наверное вы не знаете где такая маленькая деревня находится, но я дам наводкуб если ехать на автобусе с города в сторону костюковки, большевика, то дальше будет и Азделино, ну и родной Зялёны Гай))

Спасибо Вам за то что посетили мою родную Ветку. Сам из Ветки. В 1991 я с родителями переехал в Минск из за Чернобыля, а бабушки и дедушки мои остались в Ветке. Каждое лето с отцом приезжал в гости к бабушкам, золотое детство было. На Соже купался, ловил рыбу. Было круто!))
