This took me straight to my childhood in the Carpathians of Romania, listening to the shepherds whistle and live in nature with their flocks. 🇷🇴⛰🐏 While traveling Mongolia in my early 20s, I was so inspired by the simplicity of the nomadic lifestyle, I bought one of their Gers (Mongolian Yurt) and have been living in it across the Northwest US for the last 13 years, as my symbol of freedom and proximity to nature. Shepherds of the world have SO much to teach our lost/confused/depressed world of consumers. As new generations see this film, and your future documentary, maybe shepherds can call humanity back to our roots, save our plant, and live happier simpler lives! 🌿 Keep changing the world one film at a time Eva!

@@edwardmacnab354 I think they are talking more about a fulfilling sense of purpose that is not driven by wanting more. Many younger people keep themselves so occupied that they do not stop and reflect upon their life's worthiness and fulfilment. If you are always so busy working so you can afford all the things people are supposed to want and you never stop and examine what actually holds meaning and what a life with purpose looks like then you aren't going to feel lost or confused. To find answers you have to be brave enough to ask questions.

I am happy that you chose to talk about the Carpathian shepherds. I appreciate their ancient traditions, which have existed for hundreds of years along the Carpathian Mountains. I cannot ignore the fact that Polish shepherding traditions are similar to those in Romania. The Polish shepherd performs the same rituals yearly as Romanian shepherds (in Romanian, it is called transhumanta = transhumance). They wear the same traditional clothing, and in Polish villages, we can still see the old wooden houses with architecture similar to that of Romanian villages. Furthermore, there is a region in southern Poland called Bukowina, and Romanians refer to the northern (north-east) part of Romania as Bucovina. This tradition of transhumance has driven flocks of sheep and their shepherds along the Carpathian Mountains for hundreds of years (if not longer). Thus, we can observe similar traditions in Slovakia and the Czech Republic in villages or towns near the Carpathian Mountains. Last but not least, I want to highlight the term "watra" at 18:46. It is an old Romanian word, “vatra,” meaning the same as in Polish (the place where we make a fire), along with other meanings. At 18:46, the shepherd says, “watra jest,” which translates to "watra is." This sounds exactly like the Romanian phrase, “vatra este,” and has the same meaning: “vatra is.” I am very passionate about the linguistic similarities and how languages evolve over time in different parts of Europe.

Vatra is a pure romanian word of traco-ilirian origin shared historically nowadays by the romanian and the albanian languages. I dont think there's such a word in the polish language. And if it is... it's clearealy a loan from the romanian.

I think I'm a rare person in America as I'm a third generation person of pure Polish ancestry - both parents Polish. And I have several cousins on my generation that are as well (I'm 67). I love your recent travels and adventures in your native Polish land and seeing many traditional things you are experiencing. Through current events around the world is seems Poland is one of the few countries that is holding on to it's roots and people so strong. I even recognize a few Polish phases spoken but unfortunately my mother never taught us kids the language, which she certainly could have done as my grandfather never lost his use of the language. As for the shepherding, I feel it is important those traditions carry on as much as possible. And even my son would be ecstatic to be in the company of those shepherd dogs - he worked in a shelter for a while and had a lot of exposure to those breeds. Thank you so much for providing us insight to these lifestyles and experiences. Peace and love for more adventures with you.

When I lived in the Eifel mountains of Germany, there were many sheep with traditional shepherds and sheep dogs. We used to judge the size of the by how many shepherds and dogs were used to manage the herd. As a side note, I had a friend who owned an Australian sheepdog. He had a lot of land, and some of us were playing American touch football. I was watching with the owner and he pointed out to me that when the team was in the huddle prior to a play, the dog sat quietly, but when they broke up and the receiver ran out for a pass, the dog ran after him, barking. It was a natural trait of the dog to want to chase the stray "sheep" back into the herd.

It is a basic life. It is not easy but it is honest and gives you more then social links in a town.

I am a 66 year old man without children who has also followed my own path in life and tried to avoid the trap of compromising to social norms. I can assure you it is a quest that never ends. I have (eventually) found my place in the world and hope you also will. There is no shame in changing your mind and moving on, it’s not a failure, it’s a strength.

Loved ❤ this video showing all the traditions of Poland’s shepards & their flock. I watch all your videos you take me to places I could never imagine seeing. I ❤️ Vilk and seeing him go from puppy to big dog. He has adapted from his USA home to his new home like a champ!

I love this kind of videos. Traditional way of life. I was born in the mountains of southern Kosovo (you've been there, just). It was all about sheep herding in that region ( region Gora ) at that time. There are still sheperds today that keep tradition alive. And they make most wonderfull cheese. My mother visited the region recently and she braught me some of that famous cheese.

The drone shots of the sheep! ✨ I love your channel Eva, and how you document everything. I love listening to you narrate. I'm just a gal living in Ontario Canada, so inspired by all that you do. ❤ stuck working 9-5, yearning for a home on land.. and to not be behind a computer so much.. I have a passion for videography but I've always put it on the back burner. But it's a true passion in life. I appreciate every shot you take.

Excellent viewing, Eva. A fascinating subject of interest to many Australian viewers no doubt, where sheep and sheep farmers live a very different style of life. Even the dogs have completely different jobs in Australia, where they round up the sheep, herding them into different paddocks. Some famers are now adding the protective doggies to their herds to frighten away foxes.

Eva, excellent story and videography. Drone footage was great. My parents came from the Carpathian region on the Ukrainian side near the Polish border and my father took me mushroom picking here in the US. I asked him if all mushrooms were edible and he said "yes, but some you can only eat once!". Thank you for sharing this beautiful life in the hills of eastern Poland.

LOVE Jarik's hat.... I want one! Thanks for the inspiring video. I suppose that one way to 'get back to Nature' is to never leave it. Happy trails to you!
