Remote village life in Armenia (How people here live)

Remote village life in Armenia. We traveled to the remote village of Tatev in the south of Armenia, near to the border with Iran, to find out how people here, in a remote region of the Caucasus, live. We stayed with a lovely family in a guesthouse in Tatev, met some incredibly friendly locals, and the guesthouse owner showed us their entire home and their garden, as well as, helping us to learn some important village life skills! Could you live here?

Armenia is beautiful country with a beautiful people. They are one of the kindest people in the world 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@MattandJulia]

The hospitality is incredible :)

[@princevonny]

Villages of Armenia are the best, you'll meet the nicest people. I enjoy the village videos of Armenia the most.

[@MattandJulia]

Thank you so much! We agree with you! ❤️

[@aimeecosson9473]

[@marthamurray7005]

Lovely countryside and some of the nicest most generous people I've ever seen.

[@MattandJulia]

[@jennh7040]

Wow - the people you met in the village were so lovely and generous. Thank you for showing us a glimpse of their life. I smiled all the way through this vlog.

[@Chiefs555]

They seem like such friendly people.

[@eleonorhenderson8581]

I love ❤️ it! Thanks so much for giving me the opportunity to stay traveling even though I returned to America. Armenia was in my list and I hope I can get there soon! Again I love the simplicity of your videos because they show the real world and you both are so cute together!

Thank you so much 🤗 really glad you are enjoying them 😊❤️

[@Vahag2008]

What i MISS MOST about Armenia, is it's people and food Thank you for making these videos guys !!!

[@MattandJulia]

So glad you enjoyed it! :) We can imagine, we miss that already too! :)

[@czhousehold]

Thank you so much for sharing this, As an Armenian in the diaspora, I never get to see this side of my homeland. I'm so glad you enjoyed it :)

[@MattandJulia]

thank you so much! really glad you enjoyed our video 😊 we absolutely loved being there ❤️

[@captainblackbeard7840]

[@evedauer-wong769]

What a beautiful interaction with the people if the village and voiceover to explain the experience. Thank you for bringing humanity back into our lives

[@MattandJulia]

Thank you very much, really glad you enjoyed it 🤗❤️

[@cherukurisrujana464]

It's like everything is slowed down....just to admire the beauty of nature.

[@archanc5382]

Wonderful, very kind video, thank you!

[@MattandJulia]

Thank you very much 🤗❤️

[@joannmcgowan9394]

Such a beautiful place! It just goes to show you that you don’t need money yo be happy and hospitable ❤️ thank you for sharing! ❤️

[@MattandJulia]

Completely agree! Satisfaction in your surroundings is so important 😊

[@margaritasun7908]

this is what i love of travel vloggers exploring village / country life , its an unassuming lifestyle , houses / gardens / backyard the beauty is natura and its the real beauty of it, l even if not well manicured - thats why daily life is unscripted , people are not paranoid too.

[@MattandJulia]

We absolutely love making videos like that. Thank you so much, we are really happy that you enjoyed our video 🤗❤️

[@jackbaghumian2484]

Well done the both of you, taking what is obscure and shedding a beautiful light to it

[@Jensie50]

Thanks for the fascinating glimpse into village life in Armenia. Poor people, but so hospitable and friendly and generous! Makes one realise how privileged we are... Wonderful how self-sufficient they are, growing their own fresh food (and stoking their own alcohol! 😎😉). Beautiful Armenian countryside as well. You did extremely well with the milking Julia! Maybe slow, but with such good technique! 🧐🤩

[@MattandJulia]

Ahahaha, aaaw thank you so much Johan! I would definitely get quicker with practice 💪🏻 hahaha! Really glad you enjoyed the video 😘❤️

[@yespls4184]

I visited some very remote villages in the north of Armenia and we got SO many invitations to have food and coffee-- a few people even gave us Armenian BBQ! Some of the nicest people I've ever met. Maybe not very wealthy, but definitely people who know how to love life and treat others. People who are connected to both people around them and to nature

[@alokshrestha4555]

They are richer than average american. In US if only you take away all the loans and credits, most of them fall into poverty. At least they can eat fresh and heathy food and have roof on the head.

[@slavik6773]

Awesome video. Love your vlogs guys really well done. Thanks for showing Armenia. As an Armenian i did not know how beautiful it is down there. 🇦🇲🇬🇧

[@MattandJulia]

Thank you so much! Really happy you are enjoying our videos, means the world to us 🥰❤️

[@bampboy9938]

Places untouched by man, where the soul feels free. Big greetings from Armenia!

[@petrosamirkhanyan5101]

Thanks for sharing ur experience 🖤 loves from Armenia 🇦🇲😍

[@MattandJulia]

Love to Armenia, can't wait to return ❤️

[@contentviewer815]

I'm from Cali but I plan on retiring in ten years, to live in an Armenian village. I miss the people, the nature and the simple life. Giving up a bit of comfort for freedom is what I prefer as well.

[@MattandJulia]

That sounds amazing!

[@itoldutruth669]

Isn't that USA is the freest country in the world ?

[@thofol]

You are lucky speaking Russian. This really helps interact with the locals. But also with English or talking via "hand and feet" will get you in touch with lovely Armenian people.

[@stonerskeletor]

I was introduced to your videos through my love of Georgia and your video of exploring Tbilisi and now I'm exploring the rest of the Caucasus with you! Would love to visit this beautiful country someday. What kind people.

[@GerryF101]

Love the simplicity in your videos… it’s refreshing!

[@MattandJulia]

Thank you very much Gerry 🤗❤️

[@peaceandlove5214]

I want to come to Armenia to study Masters and I'm thinking of living in farmhouse close to Yerevan to raise some animals and grow covercrops. Can't wait to be there.

[@yazdypalia]

Lovely video of your experience in the countryside of Armenia. You have given a very good picture of the simple country folks. Thank you.

[@killergumbo]

Another great video! The Armenian food video aswell. I was in Yerevan on business Sept. 2021 and it was a great trip, had time to visit Garni, Geghard, Noravank and Sevan - a lovely country and very nice people. Nice touch with the UNO card game, guys :)

[@dennydritic2628]

Great video Matt and Julia. Your open and positive attitudes makes all your experiences that much better. One bit of small advice, the guy in the car that was trying to sell you his pomegranate wine - would have been good if you bought it and taken with you to the family that you were staying with. In Armenian culture, we find it good etiquette to always take something with you when entering as guests so that you are not "tser dadark" (empty handed)..

[@MattandJulia]

Thank you very much Denny 🤗 The hosts were making their own wine, we were worried that they might take it as offence you know 😊 P. S. Also, we paid for everything, we didn't just expect everyone to give us everything like they have to😊

[@dennydritic2628]

@@MattandJulia oh please do t misunderstand my meaning; i know your not freeloaders 😜This is completely separate from money - more a spiritual gesture for a "full house". I see ur point about the wine. maybe something else then. A bottle of cognac is common. Anyway just my humble advise on small nuances of cultures. Keep on doing your thing, you guys are beautiful.

[@user-ny8rf2of4z]

Доброе утро. Молодцы всё красиво снято.Мне всегда уливлает почему все кто бывает в Татеве не спускаются в ущелье под мостом сатаны мне кажется это самый уникальный, красивый место в Армении созданным природы. Будьте здоровым.

Why do they speak Russian? Armenia has its own language

[@MattandJulia]

Many people throughout the former Soviet Union speak Russian as either a first or second language. It is a 'lingua franca' throughout this part of the world. Regarding Armenians in particular, they learn Russian at school and many actually work in Russia both seasonally and/or full time 🙂
