Greek Cottagecore : Jam and Jackal Serenades | Village Life ep. 7

Come with me as we spend a few winter days in the traditional greek Village, go on a small expedition to attempt to see the Jackals howl at night, harvest the bitter oranges of our garden and make jam and bread for breakfast. Just a quiet couple of days in our cosy rustic old stone house, enjoying the simplicity and sunny mornings of the Greek winter. Rural life in a simple slow-pace mediterranean countryside.

What is the closest encounter you've had with a wild creature ?

[@sotiriospeithis6659]

I once took part in a deer relocation effort. We were supposed to form a wide semi circle in the forest and herd the deer far away from the highway. We thought they would be scared of us and run the opposite way. Unfortunately wild animals dlcan be unpredictable so the herd instead decided to run through us. Several deer shot past me in a blur. They were incredibly fast. The guy next to me got struck square in the chest and knocked back several feet. No one got hurt, bit it was a tense moment.

I had such an adventure with a wild boar, I was on a walk in the forest with my dog and we met a wild boar about 25 meters from me, fortunately the boar went on its way.

Nothing bigger than a squirrel where I live 🤪

On a camp out in the Smokey mountains the skunk were not afraid and came in the evening to forage for food scraps. They came within an arms length. We stayed as still as possible we didn’t want to be sprayed or skunked is was so intense.

The beauty and calmness of nature there attract me so much 😮😮😮

[@mariawelchsantos4612]

Beautiful place nd u r so adorable ❤️ girl👍👍

[@user-wy8hc1ts5i]

Πρώτη φορά βλέπω τα βίντεο σου και με έχουν συναρπάσει!!!!

[@AriadnesVillageLife]

Πολύ χαίρομαι ! Καλώς ήρθες ! 🤗

[@user-bq8gb4ft6u]

Αριάδνη σε ευχαριστούμε για όσα ωραία μοιράζεσαι μαζί μας...

[@AriadnesVillageLife]

Ευχαριστώ πολύ και είναι χαρά μου! 😊

[@user-bq8gb4ft6u]

@@AriadnesVillageLife πολλά από αυτά που μας δείχνεις και φτιάχνεις, δεν τα κάνει σχεδόν κανένας πλέον στο χωριό. Δεν ανάβουν φούρνο, δεν φτιάχνουν πετιμέζι, δεν ασπρίζουν και πολλά άλλα. Σου αξίζουν συγχαρητήρια πολλά. Η μόνη παράκληση, αν καταφέρεις και βάλεις Ελληνικούς υπότιτλους και στα προηγούμενα βιντεάκια θα είναι τέλειο, ώστε να μπορέσουμε και μεις που δεν γνωρίζουμε αγγλικά να παρακολουθήσουμε τα λεγόμενά σου. Να έχεις μία καλή μέρα και μια καλύτερη εβδομάδα!!!

[@sotiriospeithis6659]

Yay ! New video. I love the colors in the thumbnail!

[@AriadnesVillageLife]

Glad you like them! 😊

[@user-xh9rz7rf8l]

Να 'σαι καλά κοπέλα μου για την γαλήνη που αισθάνομαι στην ψυχή μου, όταν παρακολουθώ τα εκπληκτικά σου βίντεο. Εύχομαι η ομορφιά της καθημερινής επαφής με την φύση - όσο είναι αυτό δυνατό - να σε πληροί πάντα και να γεμίζει ευτυχία τη ζωή σου. Και για την ερώτηση που έθεσες, βρέθηκα ξαφνικά μπροστά σε ένα θηλυκό αγριογούρουνο με δύο μικρά, που έπιναν νερό μέσα στο φαράγγι των Κενταύρων στην Πελοπόννησο. Περιττό να πω, πόσο γρήγορα λάκισα..!

[@AriadnesVillageLife]

Ευχαριστώ παρά πολύ ! Αμάν, πρέπει να σας κόπηκε η χολή 😅

[@jamesmandas639]

Awesomeness once again! Making sourdough bread right now because you sparked the interest. Thank you!

[@AriadnesVillageLife]

Haha I'm so happy this video inspired you! Thank you so much for your nice comment :)

[@VickisDiary]

Thank you for sharing! Keep these videos coming! I find many videos on slow living in the countryside in many European countries but not Greece!!! You’re doing a wonderful job!

[@AriadnesVillageLife]

Glad you’re enjoying them, there’s lots more to come! Thank you for watching and for your kind comment ♥️😊

[@marie-laurecoulminkoutsaft3863]

I’ve been waiting for your new video! I’ve encountered wild animals only through a window, from trains or cars: deers, foxes, jackals, different big birds, rabbits and hares … except for wild turtles which I usually carry out of the road

[@AriadnesVillageLife]

Turtles are adorable 🥰

[@francoisegourvil4817]

J'aime la douce poésie du quotidien distillée par les vidéos d'Ariane. En bonus dans celle-ci, le chant des chacals! Et toujours en vedette américaine, le beau pays de Grèce.

[@AriadnesVillageLife]

Merci beaucoup, je vais essayer d'enregistrer le chant des chacals plus longtemps une prochaine fois!

[@jacquesguillet4472]

Un beau moment moment de communion avec une nature encore liée directement à des activités humaines.

[@AriadnesVillageLife]

Merci beaucoup =)

[@Simplyliving94]

Wow I never knew that’s what a jackal sounds like! 😧 Amazing video, very cinematic!

[@AriadnesVillageLife]

Thank you ! Yes it's a very particular sound 😊

[@sotiriospeithis6659]

When I first heard Jackals in Greece I was also completely taken aback. Not at all what I expected

[@francoisegourvil4817]

De la part de Yves. Nature, douceur et bien-être vécus. Merci Ariane.

[@AriadnesVillageLife]

Merci beaucoup à Yves 🥰♥️

[@sinakauri]

[@rosykatzCATS]

My cats are not allowed outside because we have coyotes, we also have Hawks, mean people & lots of cars and trucks

[@AriadnesVillageLife]

Yeah I can imagine. Poor Susie was a stray cat, like so many here in the village. I am not quite sure what happened to her and I hope that someone that can take good care of her adopted her and she is now alive and happy 😌
