How One Family Lives in the Mountains Far from Civilization

In this video, we take you to the village of Samakova, nestled in the Carpathian Mountains of Ukraine, where the resilient family of Dmytro and Svitlana live far from the conveniences of modern civilization. Along with their children - Evgenia, Khrystyna, Ivan, Oleksiy, and Matviy- they have made a life on the mountain that offers breathtaking views and a unique connection to nature, balanced by hard work and simplicity.
Children from these mountain villages walk several kilometers to reach the nearest school. This daily journey is just one of the many ways these families embrace the realities of mountain life.
You'll see Dmytro, Svitlana, and their children navigate the rugged terrain and prepare traditional meals. Watch as they cook a hearty lunch of borscht and buckwheat porridge, using simple ingredients and time-honored methods passed down through generations.
Living on the mountain means being resourceful. The family grows their own food, collects fresh water from nearby springs, and relies on their skills to survive the changing seasons. With no supermarkets or modern amenities, they have learned to adapt and thrive in their secluded environment. Their lifestyle is a testament to family bonds and the strength of the human spirit.
This video isn't just about their daily chores or meals; it’s a story of resilience, love, and harmony with nature. You'll witness how Dmytro, Svitlana, and their children embrace each day with gratitude, finding joy in the simple life. Whether they’re tending to animals, chopping firewood, or enjoying the stunning views, every moment reflects the unique life they've created.

Видно що родина не багата і потребує більше грошей на життя, і логічно було би не народжувати стільки людей. Але так завжди чим бідніші живуть тим більше дітей роблять. Зробіть якість додати спонсорів більше в місяць, щоб допомогти таким родинам як ця. Особливо коли зима і треба теплий одяг, жаль я сам зараз перебиваюся як всі в Україні. Але певно ці дітки хотіли би отримати кожна свою кімнату де є всі гаджети без яких зараз в світі важко, я би кожному подарував би ноут і смартфон якби мав би кошти. У мене чомусь тільки сльози від ваших відео чомусь ми повинні страждати, краще би Бог вже не дав би нам існувати щоб Українці були русифіковані нехах би тоді страждали гонорові наглі поляки і інші европейці. Ні дав незалежність і мову зберіг а кацапам розуму не дав, ще і жидів у владу пустив і ті творять шо хочуть. Чому він нас так випробовує за що я не розумію.

Гарні дітки,щасливий батько. Приємно дивитися як грається з дітьми,чудова місцевість,а мариновані грибочки, смакота.Жінка живе далеко від цивілізації,напевно нелегко їй, доглядати велику сім'ю і поратися по хазяйству,але такі ногті на руках ріжуть очі.Вибач дорогенька але мені здолося що вони тобі мішають нарізати овочі,коли готуєш їсти.Будь щасливою що Бог дав тобі таку гарну сім'ю і ти можеш бути мамою і дружиною і жити в таких прекрасних місцях.Карпати це краса України,нехай Бог збереже вашу сім'ю.

Дякуємо вам за теплі слова та увагу до життя цієї родини! Жити далеко в горах нелегко, але сім'я знаходить баланс між щоденними обов'язками та радощами. Щодо нігтів, то це мабуть лише маленька жіноча радість, і вони не заважають господині виконувати роботу по дому. Нехай і вашу сім'ю Бог оберігає!

Ooohhhhh such a lovely family. The children are gorgeous. I always like to see the children eating whatever is put infront of them, and they were enjoying it. No moans or fussiness. Well brought up and happy. Daddy plays with them and Mummy joins in. So lovely. Baby gets his milk and gives his Mummy a pat on the back.

❤ I love this family

[@AnaMarriia]

I've seen comments here about the lady being in a bad mood. Those people commenting are not mothers, I'm sure. When I saw this lady I knew she was TIRED. She has 5 children!!! She carried each for 9 months. Some are small, one is still a baby. She's probably not getting much sleep. The house and children look well taken care of. She must be working so hard. She must be so so tired. But she's so blessed. Her house is full. If you pay attention you will see her smiling with the children. You will see her smiling with the baby at the end. You will see her heart filled with love

[@foodaroundtheworld7320]

Thank you for your thoughtful comment and for truly understanding her situation. Raising 5 children, especially with a baby, takes a lot of energy, and it's completely normal to feel tired at times. Yet, as you noticed, her heart is full of love and joy, and despite the exhaustion, she’s always caring for her family with such dedication. Her smiles with the children, especially the baby, show how much love she pours into everything. Thank you for your support! 😊

PLEASE READ! Why do they have the cow locked up like that??😞 Let him go that is cruelty to animals! Honestly, they are beautiful children n mom too! I enjoyed seeing their lives, especially the cooking. They look like they don’t have much money. I hope that we can help them out with our views? Please go visit them again. I would love to see this family all the time! Much love from New York-USA😇❤️

[@foodaroundtheworld7320]

Thank you so much for your concern and kind words! The cow is actually kept safe and secure in a traditional way that ensures it doesn’t wander off in the rugged terrain, and she’s well taken care of with plenty of time outdoors. Life here in the mountains can be tough, but it’s full of love and care for both animals and people. We also want to let you know that the family receives a good payment for each video, which provides incredible financial support for them. Your views and support mean the world to us, and they truly help the family.
