How People Live in the Mountains of UKRAINE

Mountains. Horses. Locals. Cheese. This is my personal recipe for world-class adventure. On this trip, we set off on horseback to visit a family who live in a remote part of the Carpathian Mountains, and spend a day with them. Wait til you see the feast Pani Olya cooked up for us, and what she and her husband, Pan Ivan, told us about their values in life...

You are seeing the world as a philosopher which is inevitable. 😀🥰💚

This is what I like about this vlogger couple. They don't check in on some fancy, expensive accommodations. They go to places which is not on the radar and they also feature some hidden gems from places which I haven't heard until now. My salute to Mike and Eva!

My grandmother (who passed away 10 years ago) was from the Carpathian mountains in Ukraine and my mom was so happy to hear her dialect of Ukrainian again. Thank you so much for sharing!!

[@nat_al_lie]

@@chaist94 yes!! Some of the words my grandmother used and passed down to my mom are a unique mix of Polish and Ukrainian. For example, she had us call her Babchi as compared to Babushka. She was born in the area when it was still Poland, but she always considered herself Ukrainian with a love for Poland

As a American citizen from Wisconsin who has grown up working in Dairy farming I say thank you for this video. WI is Americas largest dairy producing state. Yes here in the US dairy is heavily regulated and must be Pastorized if sold in big markets. Some stated allow for Raw milk sales with special certificates and inspection. Here in WI we have faught fot the right yo buy and sell raw milk. This Ukrainian family is an example of what WI looked like pre Industry farming, before WWII. I happen to have a favorite milk cow that I make yogurt and cheese with. Lots of people Homestead here and live simple.

[@Feorh]

04:38 може заробити тисячу (1000) євро "тисячу" or [tysiachu] means thousand not 300 euros as it was subbed in video. But it was so surprising to see video about my country, Ukraine. With best regards.

[@TheDesertwalker]

Feorh, are the people in this video speaking in a Polish or partial Polish dialect? Some words sound very close to my Polish Galician Aunts & Uncles.

[@Feorh]

​@@TheDesertwalker Pure Ukrainian, can't hear any of dialect words (such as russism or Polishism), besides they just have some differend (not common in my opinion) intonations in spelling, some soft and pinch tones, and thats all, but it sounds so beautifull and lovely. Uhmm homelike ? My Grandma used to speak in such manner too. And by the way, i never learn Polish language but it pretty understandable for me too, seems like because of common roots. So it dont surprises me that you hear some familiar words too. Cheers.

[@Desperoro]

I was surprised. I visited Ukraine in February and prices are getting higher
