MY 100 YEARS OLD HOUSE IN NORTHERN RUSSIA 🇷🇺

Built in 1915 when the Russian Empire still existed. The Russia's North is famous for its wooden architecture.

[@MichaelZuinoAndNatasha]

I second so many of these comments in saying that this is a fantastic and beautiful tour. The house has so many hidden areas and it's rich full of history. You are blessed to be in there and I hope you enjoy your time here

[@TheOCMarc]

That’s an absolutely beautiful log cabin. The wooden logs alone are worth a small fortune-also those wide plank wooden floors. Amazing 🤩

[@davidday2373]

I love old houses. One house that I grew up in, in Los Angeles CA in 1980s & 1990s, was built in 1908 or 1918 (as a little kid I remember my father showing me a document on the property).

[@CrazyRussianSergey]

Cool! Would be interesting to see and compare!

[@carmenmarialinne2650]

I think this is a lovely house!I hope it is always improved so it is maintained very well to ladt More years ahead. A peaceful place to live it seems

[@JC-jv5xw]

A brilliant insight into traditional rural Russian life. I am surprised to see it has electricity. And a soviet era refrigerator still going after 30 years (and probably another 20 to go)

[@theresaschroeder914]

Lovely traditional house! Thanks for the videos showing us village life. Good luck with the garden and be well!

[@APlusRussian]

8:50 - Wait, what?? The toilet is in a a room ATTACHED to the main house??? Such luxury!! I have NEVER seen a Russian country house that didn't have an OUTHOUSE. Which, as the name suggests, is located OUTSIDE the main structure. Are you you sure this is _actually_ in Russia, Sergey? 🤪

[@CrazyRussianSergey]

All the houses here have toilets inside. Maybe because it’s a cold 🥶 territory.

[@davidday2373]

Fancy~ fancy~

[@harripottonen17]

Komi Republic is also in north and the same thing there. All the houses have their outhouses inside. Even the old wooden 2-3 story block houses. They just have their outhouses in sort of stages. It looks funny.

very beautiful house.The house i grew up in was said to be built in early 1800 but after fire nothing old remain but the walls . So its quite modern. your house is very charming.

[@adriennemarierozario6591]

Beautiful house tour Sergey. It has alot of classic charm in it's design & just needs a spring cleaning to brighten things up. It's so nice to see your neighbors gave you a choice tomato plant to plant in your garden. I'd suggest you find a dolgo wild apple tree to plant in your garden, as once established it can provide fruit almost year round. Also there is a type of dragon tree oranges that can thrive in any climate.God bless Sergey!

[@rogerholmstrom2222]

Hello from Washington State USA, LIKED YOUR TOUR OF YOUR HOME. I HAD A CABIN AND IT HAD SOME OF THESE SAME FEATURES. HAPPY FISHING.

[@CrazyRussianSergey]

Cabin is interesting term in English. We have some small hunting cabins in forests for all the hunters so they stay there a night - then clean up for other hunters to stay. They put matrasses on the rope so they stay dry in winter for other hunters. I’ll try to film it as well

What a lovely house! It’s like a house in a classic novel. I remember that I drew such a beautiful wooden house as my dream house in my childhood. 1:40 - You said don’t step on the threshold of a house so as not to bump the head. Is there any other reason for that (like a superstition)?

[@CrazyRussianSergey]

There are a lot of superstitions here, but I haven’t heard of this particular one. I’m planning to make a video about local superstitions

Sergey you are very fortunate to have so many houses throughout Russia to choose to live in. This one was a good choice. It’s quiet and beautiful here. Perhaps it won’t be as comfortable in the winter. Will you stay through winter?

Amazing to see old places like this. What a beautiful view as well.

[@ElektronikGirlEpic]

Looks like it will last another 100 years just fine.

[@CrazyRussianSergey]

I hope so. The house though has an angle now after the big flooding in 1970s or the 1998. Or maybe both of them affected it.

Fishing: In US we call it IN SEASON and OUT OF SEASON. Each local county has a GAME WARDEN who patrols the shores and the wooded fields. If you are caught POACHING (hunting OUT of season) the fines are very $$$. Hunting deer is a common activity with a very limited season. Rifle hunting has a separate season from BOW HUNTING and FLINTLOCK HUNTING (old technology).Fishing seasons are specific to the species of fish.

[@arthurzengeler8296]

When I was a teenager, many years ago, I lived with my family in a rural area, on a lake also. The lake was smaller, and the house newer, but the life style, is similar. I'm curious to see future videos, of how you live there. The fish you have, must be big, for such a big fishing lure you use. Also, I want to see how well the vegetable grow, and what types. And too bad you don't have a windsurfer, ( which is a surf board, with a sail). It would be fun to do on that lake !

[@mareen622]

I gave you 👍 before I watched your video, I knew it would be very interesting. I like Russian traditional houses so much. When I was a child I watched a lot of Russian fairy tales in TV. There we can see all this beautiful houses. I wish I could come and help you to clean it up.

Russians prove that a natural old fashioned "primitive" lifestyle is the secret to their smooth skin, tall physiques and long lifespans!

[@iseegoodandbad6758]

@@CrazyRussianSergey why do you adorable Russians have such amazing spot/hair free skin though 🤔??

[@MrDEWaters]

This type of house seems much better than the Soviet-style apartments I have seen. Does the house stay warm in winter? That would be my greatest concern. I would apply some paint here and there but maybe that would make it look less traditional.

[@Cairol58]

Thank you Sergey for making this very interesting video 🙂. And indeed the house is very beautiful! Until a few years ago (the owner passed away in 2016) I had the chance regularly to stay in a basically similar designed house built 1913. It has technically the same sort of ovens but covered with ceramic tiles (cooking was done with “modern“ equipment though 😅). I loved to stay there for a few days whenever I was visiting my family’s hometown. So is anyone else from your family staying there sometimes and until when was it in use permanently? It was your great grandparents house and your grandfather spent his summers there you said? Have a good time there and keep doing such nice videos! 😎

[@lolizima2194]

I noticed that in the villages it was always just plain white, so every now and then just brush white over and it looks neat again. People in villages are very busy usually. I've seen tiles over the stove mostly in the cities, more expensive houses maybe.

Black banya has an open fire inside. Not in the stove. I’ll show it later in banya video

[@ronstuff6330]

It seems like Russian houses have more of a stain than a paint. Is that true? I notice a lot of cool blue and green colors on various houses. The blue on the side is cool, and especially the weathering. The browns and greens on the front are sharp. When was the last time that place was painted? I'm guessing it's been a while, and that's a compliment to the durability of those finishings. Stuff in USA doesn't last long at all, especially in such a harsh environment. Also- beautiful time of day you filmed. You caught the 'golden hour'. Cheers! Ron.

I’d like to stay here for winter, but as the locals say and I also understand it - this house is not prepared for the winter living. It has an angle now so has holes in windows. Even if i close those holes still floor underneath is not warmed up. I mean it should be a lot of work and investment to it. I’m not ready for it. As a summer house it’s perfect
