Could you do a T-shirt version of the Carpathians? I don't wear sweat shirts. Thanks. Beautiful crochet as well as the museum.

Jews in Ukraine were also notorious usurers, begrudged by Ukrainians indebted to them, like everywhere else. 19:30 Correction: Ukraine was a province in the Russian Tsarist empire of the 19th century, later "inherited" by the Bolsheviks after the Russian revolution, using force. Russian Bolshevik rule did suppress Ukrainian nationalism under Stalin, but also modernized Ukraine, and granted it a state status within the USSR, a privilege shared only by 13 other countries in the Soviet Union, not including Russia, the dominant state. Ukraine was the second most advanced state in the USSR, after Russia. You are so cute with a nice voice, and your videos are so interesting regarding the cultural and historical aspects of Ukraine, that you deserve much more views.

[@K9dogs811]

Thank you Anna, it's beautiful

[@kensmith5694]

BTW: The hair/fur on a sheep is called "wool". That word is almost only ever used for sheep. English has many words that are used only for one case.

[@douglaswhite9777]

Love to you later thank you for being such a kind, gentle soul

[@RoyCousins]

Thank you for showing us the lovely Carpathian countryside and the historic village museum. It's great to see the culture that Ukraine is fighting for and is a great contrast to the "Ruskie Mir" lies from the invaders. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦

[@jeffsiegwart]

You put a face on Ukrainian history and culture. It was a wonderful thing to do. It shows that Ukraine is not just a name, but a people and a culture that is worth saving from aggressive Russian obliteration. 💙💛

Quit hitting on my woman Jeffrey! Jk I agree😊

It's a long queue that you're in 😂

[@pjohnson179]

"I want to be a writer when I grow up." (shows old typewriter). It's fun seeing you play in these tour videos; waving back from a mirror, jumping down the path, telling us what your future plans are. This is the life that all Ukrainians should be leading; having fun instead of fighting sadistic orcs. Thanks for this fun tour. Be well, Anna. Slava Ukraine!

[@beachbum77979]

It is beautiful to watch playful Anna enjoying her day. It IS the life that all Ukrainians should living everyday. Demonic sadistic orcs should be burning in hell instead of trying to destroy Ukraine.

[@enricotempert]

thank you Anna for showing us this gorgeous part of Ukraine. until now I have only been to the Eastern half of Ukraine. but I have plans to visit Western Ukraine eversince my first visit back in 2014. but sadly it has never come to it. hopefully soon. keep up the good work. and I would love to see more of the Carpathians. SLAVA UKRAINI!!!! HEROYAM SLAVA!!!

[@beachbum77979]

Thanks Anna for sharing your trip to Kolochava. I love seeing how our predecessors lived and thinking about day to day existence ov those times. Simple comforts. Hard work. Life and love. Lots of hard work. Lots of rewards. And what a beautiful setting! Slava Ukraini!!!

[@steelpanther9568]

It is beautiful to see Ukraine’s heritage & traditions being so beautifully looked after & preserved, It’s such a shame that Russia has to destroy everything that demonstrates the type of life that Russia doesn’t rightfully deserve, 🇺🇦SLAVA 🔱KRAYINI🇺🇦

[@pennylane428]

That was a beautiful antique abacus. I chuckled when you said that you preferred mathematics to dolls. I preferred horses to dolls, definitely not math. Thank you Anna for taking us on this adventure 🇺🇦❤️🇺🇸

[@thomaswagner2586]

I really liked this episode. Three or four years ago I visited a german historic vilage near the bavarian alps and had short flashback. Thank you so much for this. Slava Ukraini!

[@WhatAboutTheBee]

The very long saw blades were used to cut boards from logs. One man pulling from above, another man pulling from below. The name in English is "pit saw". The man below was often in a trench or pit, as lifting a heavy log up can be a problem. I found it very interesting that the Carpathian version had an elevated platform for the log. Thank you for showing that, Anna!

[@janvdplaat3067]

Thanks to you Anna, I now know where 37 Ukranian towns are located. Slava Ukraine !!!

[@rickhappe6855]

Thank you so much for sharing Ukraine with the world! You are very talented in your selection and presentation of your topics. I am impressed by how articulate you are and the richness of your English vocabulary. It is a pleasure to listen to you soft voice as I learn more and more about Ukraine! From Iowa, USA. Slava Ukraine.

[@internetcensure5849]

Slavs and Nordic people are good at languages, unlike average Latino- and Anglo-Europeans.

[@johannesvalterdivizzini1523]

Carpathian woodwork is excellent, and it's a pleasure to see it preserved so well. Beautiful~~Thank You, Anna! I grew up with extensive work in historical preservation and I've always loved it.

[@tonymahon892]

Anna, that was such an interesting film of the old village in a beautiful setting. I too love visiting such places and imagining living there in much simpler times. We need a respite from the brutal Orc invasion every now and again. Stay Safe and Slava Ukrainia

[@thedustyhead]

Very beautiful ! I'm also a lover of history . There are so many gorgeous places in the Carpathian Mountains . English help - The musical wind instruments are made out of brass . That's why that part of the orchestra is referred to as the brass section sometimes .... and sheep have wool not fur . haha Pretty country . Nice video . Slava Ukraini

[@orchidhouse297]

Thank you Anna. I love this type of video, learning about the history of ordinary life in your country. We have similar villaages in the UK - always a joy to visit. Your country certainly appreciates beauty in detailed decoration.

[@davidcaruana5257]

Thank you Anna. It's so beautiful. One day I wish to visit our country. Slava Ukraine

[@djparn007]

Thank you for the tour, Anna. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦

Thank you Anna. You are right it is so beautiful. And we all love you too. Slava Ukraini. Glory to Her Heroes.

[@rondickens2257]

Rustica! & Beautiful! (ironed or not, Anna, you always look smart!) Slava Ukraine! 💙💛🇺🇦🇺🇲

[@harrydecker8731]

What a beautiful old village, preserved in such detail! I would hope that all young people would visit such a place to see where their ancestors came from and appreciate how much easier life is today.

[@archeanna1425]

Yes, Anna, yes. At the top of my list of places to visit is the Carpathian mountains. My Ukrainian grandparents came to Canada in the 1890's and there is a strong influence here. There are magnificent wool blankets still being made in that area and I want one but they are difficult to import right now. Many people want peace to come to Ukraine so your people and your culture can thrive again. Thank you for sharing the beauty and generosity of the traditions of Ukraine. The word 'appreciate' is used sometimes when speaking about a piece of art or a stock portfolio. It means the value of something has increased. This lovely video made the value of Ukraine appreciate today. Thank you.

[@markrice41]

My part of the country was settled by Czechoslovakians in the 1830s. The settlers cabins that have been preserved look very much like the house you have shown. They were much smaller, though.

[@horstschmitzberger6989]

Ok … no green screen ❤😊 beautiful area, will love to visit it after victory. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦

[@nevco8774]

It is like using a time machine. Real cool!

[@luisgomez3936]

Really beautiful pastoral scenery and the houses outfitted in their authentic antique furnishings really makes us want to visit Ukraine! The Carpathian Mountains have been in the center of lots of history and are so beautiful. Your country must win this war and preserve your sovereignty! SLAVA UKRAINI, HEROYAM SLAVA!!!

[@AdalbertKowal]

The instruments you showed within that inn are brass instruments, the bigger ones are tenor-horns and one baritone, the other ones I could identify are flugel-horns and trumpets. Probably the inn had been used also by the local music band. Well, and the trembita you showed us is a cognate of the alphorn used still today in Switzerland and in Austria in the mountains. :) Slava Ukraine!

[@steved6092]

Stunning countryside & the museum is fascinating, thank you for the tour Anna ... The love you have for your country really shows throughout your vlogs & videos ... One thing you do have is an exceptional wardrobe Anna, you always look amazing (and it's difficult to tell what isn't ironed ! 😂😆) ... Looking forward to visiting your stunningly beautiful Ukraine ... Slave Ukraini 💙💛

[@Francois-2024]

I dont have enough beautiful words to thank you, Dear Anna, for this exceptionnal visit 👍. Well... I want to learn Ukrainian language there with you !

[@marianneb.7112]

So peaceful! You have great posture by the way, Anna! You are an inspiration in so many ways.

[@Jyshrii]

The best-known museum here in America, at least in the east, is Williamburg, in Virginia, which captures a moment in time.There are guides (called docents when for a museum) dress in costumes of the era and craftsmen do jobs of the era, like weaving and blacksmithing. However, my favorite historical museum is in Shelburne, Vermont. It was the pet project of a rich woman, Electra Havemeyer Webb. She lived in New York City and had a passion for collecting historical buildings. Unlike Williamsburg, it is not one time period but many periods in American history from a primitive settler's cottage to art galleries. There is a pharmacy, a lighthouse, a hunting lodge, a circus building that has a long curving hallway with a model of an old fashioned circus parade, a big barn with dozens of kinds of horse-drawn carriages, and up-an-down sawmill, a jail. They made a house using some of the rooms from Electra Havemeyer Webb's opulent New York apartment with the rich furnishings and paintings. She was a friend of the impressionist painter Mary Bassett and bought a lot of her paintings. There are hunting paintings and sculptures in the hunting lodge. It's very big and it is impossible to see it all in just one trip. When you buy a ticket, you can come back the next day at no extra charge and try to see as much more as you can. I hope you will come to Vermont some day and visit this amazing museum which gives an array of many periods in American life. This nation of immigrants has a short history compared to the Old World, but it went through many stages. There are other great museums in other parts of the country. My favorite other historical one is probably the Nordic Museum in Seattle, Washington. My second best museum is not history but science and you really really have to see and bring every child and adult to see it: the Children's Museum in Indianapolis, Indiana. There are children's museums everywhere now, but not like this. It is 5 stories high and has a Chihuly glass sculpture that goes up the center from top to bottom. It has a merry-go-round on the top floor, and that is a minor detail, as is the Indianapolis 500 race car tucked into a corner.. It is so special that schools from other states bring busloads of children to see it. The exhibits go on and on. There is an archeology area where actual archeologist behind a long glass window are doing archeological work. There is a science lab complete with shower in case you get some acid or something on you. When I was there, they had an Egypt exhibit. You enter through what looks like part of an airplane, sit down, and hear and feel yourself taking off and when you come in and land, you can see the landscape go by through the window. There is a currency exchange machine, and then you go through Egypt, the bazaar, homes, a big model of the Nile and what happens in it to play with. They had the whole sequence of how mummies are made. They had a very large exhibit about Star Wars, and how they had to design the costume and everything so it looked plausible. There's an undersea grotto. They have a digital planetarium with a 12.2m dome and 130 seats. One of my favorite parts is actually a separate attached building, fulled with dinosaurs. Every now and then there is a tropical rainstorm (not real; it just sounds like one). There are many many life sized dinosaur displays and, like all the exhibits, questions posted. "This dinosaur is old and has an injury that healed but makes it hard for her to run. Do you think she killed prey or was a scavenger?" "Here are two dinosaurs attacking each other; who do you think will win?" And, believe me, this is only a small part of what I saw. In addition they had a big King Tut exhibit that was a traveling exhibit. You had to pay extra to see it and I didn't even have time to see as much as I wanted of everything else, even though I had all day. Oh, but the most amazing is the huge dinosaurs trying to break into the front and the ones the have crashed through the back of the dinosaur house and are headed for the street. The cars driving by should be terrified, but they are going by as if nothing has happened. You really should google this right now. You will be amazed. 15 miles from me in Hanover, New Hampshire, on the top of one of the buildings belonging to Dartmouth College is a huge collection of orchids, so if you are in the area, you can visit it and it's only about 70 or 80 miles by interstate highway from the Shelburne Museum. Well, thank you for the tour. I may visit Ukraine some time after you win the war (and I still send money every month; right now I'm contributing a few hundred dollars a month to Timothy Snyder's Safe Skies initiative so it can preserve as many lives as possible, and I send sharp emails to my people in the government from time to time to try to get them to stop filing around and get the aid to Ukraine that you need. Every week I make an email about something I've learned about Ukraine and email it to a list of friends and family. This week's all be about this museum, with lots of pictures, including a lot of screen shots from you video (I hope that's OK; it's just private, for a few friends). I print them out and have a bider with 57 "chapters" about Ukraine, its culture, history, writers, amazing heroes defeating the orcs, and so many crowdfunding-type projects and contributions from other countries, like the Estonians who are bringing some mobile saunas, and the Estonian guys who bring cars form England and put manniquins in the side where the Russians think the driver should be so they shoot at it instead of the Ukrainian. One is about how the Greek story about Amazons came for the Scythian tribe where women and men fought together (the Greeks feared strong women so they distorted things a lot), and Scythia was located in Ukraine. So many wonderful things about Ukraine and how the people around them who are inspired to do a lot for them. It is beautiful to watch Ukraine is becoming more and more distinctly itself and the world is coming to know, admire, and love Ukraine, so there is at least some silver lining in the ghastly cloud. Slava Ukraini!.

[@user-is9vp9gs3g]

Anna, The Carpathian Mountains is definitely on my list of places to see when I finally get to visit Ukraine with my Ukrainian friend and I hope sooner rather than later.

[@larsnapoles6539]

Dear Anna, you are doing an amazing job for Ucraine but also for all of Europe. You are SO important for the fight against the invasion! I hope you will continue your work. I really do.

[@danielranc8963]

A wonderful way of making people love Ukraine. Anna, if you were looking for some communication receipt for defending Ukraine, you've found it. Keep on this good work. Other ideas while i'm writing: visits to schools, hospitals, why not factories, anything related to culture and life.

[@chuckkottke]

Anna, that was a beautiful tour and you are a naturally perfect tour guide! 💐 💐 💐 💐 🌅

Anna ❤❤❤I absolutely love the cultural directions u you oh show us. Here in the USA our early settlers used the same styles of home construction… we call them Log Home’s.

[@bobmagera1681]

[@AJ-Lohinska]

Heroyam slava! 💙✌💛 Oh my! щиро дякую, люба сестро! Anna, how beautiful this is! I so would love to visit and explore all of this lovely village, Kolochava. I can see the elements of Ukrainian/Polish/Austro-Hungarian, traditions handed down from father to son, in this outing you've kindly taken us on. Ones that my father brought with him to a certain extent. He used to make so many things by hand, from leather, purses, belts and much more in his early days during my childhood. He would always make our own wooden household items like chairs with handwoven rush seats, and even the ironing board. In fact, he could turn his hand to most things. He used a lathe to shape things from square wood into round legs and suchlike. I've even made a few things from old leather items myself at times, kind of upcycling them; just from, I imagine, seeing my Dad do similar sewing of the leather when I was little.. my inspiration. Dad said that in Wintertime, snow used to be so thick it was higher than the door - that would be different now because the climate has changed so much since his childhood. Here in the UK we have a few similar open air museums, where they've also brought the old buildings to one place, just to preserve the cultural heritage. I love that sort of thing too. Those embroidered items are gorgeous. Imagine the hours of work that went into making them all, and the loving hands that stitched them. I can understand why this simply *must* be preserved. I was never much good at mathematics, but I did have an abacus similar to that one there - I liked the sound the wooden beads made))) I guess back in the 19th and early 20th century, felling wood was not as frowned upon as it is these days where we have mass-production, but with a smaller population, it likely wouldn't have had much of an impact on the environment back then. Those scenic views across the landscape are absolutely stunning 💚💚💚 There is so much and so many reasons why Ukraine must definitely protect her heritage from the invaders. So much was hidden behind a veil each time that nasty neighbouring nation supressed our beautiful Ukraine... After all of these times that has happened, *no one* wants to ever see that happening again, not ever! Rural life can be very harsh to live, especially that remote, but in the fair weather, on sun kissed days, it must be *the* most sublime, tranquil place to be. Perfect!

[@Lovlviv]

This was a very good break from the troubles to the east and I am sure it would have a calming effect for you. Very educational for us and I hope you had a good time. regards Wally

[@13DarkWolf]

A lovely tour around this historical village, thank you Anna! Reminds me of the Western Carpathians in Poland!

[@MrVince8]

Thank you for an excellent tour. Slava Ukraine!

[@squarewave808]

Thank you Anna, I really enjoy these historical videos. Many of my ancestors here in the USA were from the Appalachian Mountains, and the things you showed in this video look so much like the Appalachian houses from that same period in history. In fact a lot of the videos you have shown us from the Carpathians remind me very much of the Appalachians. 🇺🇸🇺🇦

Thank you Anna for showing us around i always like the history and traditions of countries ,looks beautiful there,enjoy your stay

A great tour of the Carpathian Village, I enjoyed seeing it ! This reminds me of the outdoor museum "Heritage Park" in Calgary, Alberta Oblast that I have visited many times. It shows life around 1910 ish and has lots of homes, businesses you can walk in and see. Stay Safe ! Slava Ukraini !💙💛

[@mljcab1]

What’s fantastic tour of an old Ukrainian village. What character and beauty the area and the village possess. The quality of the build is beyond belief. The entire village and to artifact contained therein is a compelling destination for anyone interested in Ukrainian culture. No wonder you are so proud of your country. I’m glad that this village has survived the Russian invasion. I hope that will be the case when the war finally ends. Thank you for the tour Anna.

It would also have been nice and relaxing for you to have a break from the stress of the horrible war which unfortunately plaques your beautiful country in these horrific times. I wish you and all the people of Ukraine peace and happiness. Glory to Ukraine, glory to the hero's. Thinking of you all, love from Australia.

My late inlaw that was a commercial artist used to make Shaker furniture. All wood furniture without nails but he did cheat a bit with wood glue. Likewise, America has many thriving Amish and Mennonite communities. From California, Pennsylvania, Virginia and everywhere. Basically European farming communities that are more traditional. Where as Mennonite are a bit more modern and contribute to American businesses. I lived around the Washington, D.C. beltway. So the museum mall in Washington D.C. is free and a wonderful way to grow up. Big fan of cultural history.

Really enjoyed your guided tour around Kolochava Village; it was so beautiful. I visited Ukraine in the 1980s when it was part of the Soviet Union & went to the Pyrohiv Museum of Folk Architecture near Kyiv. The site was not as beautiful but the buildings were fantastic. Unfortunately the Russian guide did not give us much time or information. Don't forget that sheep have wool.

[@davidbauer4355]

Beautiful video! There are several similar homes, barns, and a still working water powered mill spread out in the Smokey Mountains area, but nothing organized as a whole village like this. Very cool to see such a thing! Love your videos and I hope Ukraine is free of its invaders soon so the rest of the world can experience all the wonders you are showing us!

I'm afraid they have another solution against the Russian tourists who'd try to visit this place.

[@Chompchompyerded]

I know what all of those tools are, and have used most of them at one point or another. The castle spinning wheel is of most interest to me. There is also a distaff with some flax left on it, but it seems not to be attached to a spinning wheel. It's a bit too big to be part of the castle wheel. The log house reminds me of my own little log cabin which is closed up for the year since I won't be able to get out there again before the snow flies. The cabin is in the Rocky Mountains about three miles away from the nearest road, so once there's snow, it's really hard to get in and out unless you have snow shoes or cross country skis. That place is fascinating. I'd love to go there. I hope the Russians don't send missiles to it. It is such an integral part of how the world was in those days.

Notched log construction was used in much of the US too until the 20th century. Some still use such homes with slight design modification (ie, electricity).

Anna. Thanks for the tour of Ukraine's history. Not too different than that of the USA as the USA is a collection of people from all over the world including Ukraine and Russia and they tended to settle with others from their countries bringing diverse knowledge, skills and styles. Ukraine is a beautiful country with beautiful people. I hope that some day you will have time to come see the USA.

Hi Anna! I've worked in museums like this for over 25 years. (Started when I was a teenager.) The museums I worked in also portrayed the 19th century so it was interesting to see similarities and differences. I very much enjoyed your tour and would love to see it in person someday. Your enthusiasm was obvious. That's what makes a good tour guide!
