How We Shower and Do Laundry at -71°C (-95°F) | Yakutia, Siberia

[@carriedraper2896]

@@MuhammadFakhriBinAnuar Thank you for the comment. Very interesting. It certainly does make sense that what we grow up doing and what we grow used to is just “normal” life. 🤔 Four seasons is my life. There are certainly many upsides to four seasons but yes, there are downsides as well. Spring is rough on my allergies. Summer is full of bug bites, rashes, heat and humidity. Fall is actually always pretty great for me 😊 but then Winter is cold. I have medical conditions that make it hard to regulate my body’s temperature so Summer and Winter can both be rough at times. Even though I always have lived a four seasons life, I think anyone could handle it just fine too though. You could definitely do it. The great thing about four seasons is that each season is over shortly so you just have to hang in there and the next season will be soon but I think that also makes time fly by faster probably too. I really like your comment. Actually, where I live, the majority of people dream about life in the tropics but in reality that would probably be too hard on us since it’s not what we are used to. Again, thank you for the comment. As you can probably tell, it has got me to thinking.🤔

I love this channel to the nth degree. No words can describe what a refreshing change it is from the other video formats on KZbin. The only other series I feel is comparable is Liqizi, from China. But Kiun's work is a cross between the cinematic and the demonstrative, and the documentary, which--as many have pointed out--is ALWAYS told from an outsiders view. The humanity, simplicity, and nobility of the lives led by the Yakuts--especially those living in more rural habitations, is so inspiriting and attainable. I live in a relatively cold city in Canada, known for its harsh winters, and have tended to stay inside during the winter. This has caused me to realize that I am wasting over half of my year, and neglecting the beauty and excitement not just to be had from the cold visually, but tacitly as well! For the last week and a half I've been taking cold showers, and looking at excitement at the winter scene through my window. -20, -30--and even -40 no longer feel as cold (or scary)to me now that I know there are those THRIVING at -50 and even -70 for months at a time. I just need to invest in a good pair of adult ski pants to really get out there for longer walks this winter! So inspired by this beautiful culture. Thank you for sharing it from your perspective, with wonderful narration, and incredible visual storytelling. Oh! A few questions I have, that I fear will never be answered: How did you get into this more cinematic/documentary-like video style? What does your team look like? What cameras do you use?

As parents, you are doing a great job in raising respectful and society contributing children. Thank you for sharing.

[@NiahBelle00]

this is why we must be grateful for everything we have ❤.

I appreciate the resilience of this family! So amazing. I don’t think I would appreciate my family or life more living this lifestyle. But appreciate their culture and traditions!

[@ManturoQ]

Hats off to these people. I could never live in such cold.🙌

[@ferdinandimposter691]

Mom looks like a fun lady. I could never live there but she would be nice to spend time with. The baby is such a cutie. 🥰

[@lynaysee2509]

Lots of respect for these hardworking people. You do what you gotta do to survive.

[@marilynhodgkinson5299]

What a wonderful family. They all work together to do what has to be done. I loved it when the young boy was excited about the dumplings, so appreciative. I could never live in the cold, so l think these people are amazing.

I really loved it too and I wished I have a lovely family as that. Greetings from Miami to you my name is Susana obeid

Greetings from Bulgaria! It might seem strange but watching this warms my soul(or at the very least makes me complain much less about the "cold" weather in my country)! ☺️

[@ChassieNix]

I have respect for the people who have to live in these harsh climates. I’m getting alot of ideas. Thanksn

[@wtiulshwg]

wow! i’m actually from Yakutia and i live in the city (Yakutsk) but my grandma lives in village so i’m familiar with all of this stuff:) actually right now it’s even colder than usual! past few days it was around -52 in the city and even lower in countryside (it was almost -60 there!!!) i’m in a high school so i’m literally praying for the same temperature so i won’t go to school tomorrow xD всем якутам привет!:))

[@PianellaGirl]

Heaps of respect that they don’t open the schools if it’s “too cold”…. Not unlike in hot climes where after about 90F/32C, they don’t send the kids out to play ♥️. Safe travels all 🇮🇹🇦🇺🌏

[@elsamartino5848]

take care

[@muffinsmcgee9248]

@laudelfla in my country (Australia) they still send kids out to play in 40 degrees celcius. The roads literally melt. I even remember one day when the temperature reached 50 degrees celcius.

[@bolynn9668]

Having lived alone on “squatters row” in Whitehorse YT during 40 below I can attest to the challenges of this lifestyle. Winter is beautiful and I can imagine the smell of wood smoke and the freshness of their sheets and clothing. Much respect to all Siberians❤

I watch these videos to remind myself how easy life can be down here where it's warmer. Whenever you think life is hard, look at these people who manage to survive in such harsh conditions. There is no need to complain. Have a nice day.

[@phaeb]

Life is easier for us, but simpler for them. I have yet to figure out what truly makes you happy, but I suppose it's the latter.

[@twothousandandchew]

while these people have it veryhard in their own ways and are managing yes it’s great but no need to make others down play their own personal hardships because at least they aren’t living in such harsh weather conditions
