- the purpose of the high fences is primarily to keep away thieves.

[@De5O54]

The fence is for birds to land on and think - maybe look around a wee bit. If you watch you’ll see it happening. It is also to hold the paint up off the ground.

[@robtherealtor8007]

Sam, I'm a loyal subscriber, so you owe it to me to be completely honest. What are the chances I could be "bumping uglies" with some of the Russian broads you hang out with? If the chances are 50/50, I will fly over to your village tomorrow!

[@markwarrensprawson]

That is a really beautiful place, Sam. If I were ten years younger, I'd be googling "Russian lessons" right now, with a view to google "jobs for English/Russian speakers" as soon as I can string a decent sentence together. I would pack up, sell all the things I have that are saleable, give away the rest and fly over there next week if the lovely woman who showed us her garden at the end of the video offered me space in a corner of her garden for a tent and a small vegetable patch to sustain myself off of in exchange for my taking care of all of it. I would wipe each individual leaf with wet cotton wool daily, along, of course, with all the sweaty work. I'd take the dog for walks. Hell, I'd build a rickshaw and take her anywhere she wanted to go. You walked past that shovel and complained about how it was just left there. That would NEVER happen here in South Africa. NEVER! That shovel would be gone within milliseconds of anyone taking their eyes off it.

During the Soviet Union, some villages had movie theaters, village clubs where dances were held, and pioneer houses were established for children. These houses had many sections and clubs for extracurricular activities, including aircraft modeling, a photo club, a karting club, chess sections, and shipbuilding sections (models). My grandmother worked at school as a physics teacher. After school, she taught photography to children in the pioneers' house and also painted posters for the local movie theater.

[@Bac4-qu6qg7sk4v]

​@@AshleyMcIntosh-zz7krIt wasn't a 'culture' and sure as hell was nothing brilliant about it. Russians had a derogatory word or joke for every nation of the union. Many non-russians were outright ashamed of their ancestry and tried to wear ushankas, play the balalaika and drink more vodka to be considered less of a subhuman and more russian. Those who know - know that this empire of malnourished serfs had little to do with culture or brilliance.

Thanks Sam, This village does look pretty good an that IS some amazing garden. Some suburbs on the fringes of cites or some towns in Australia might look a bit like this. Some piles of junk out the front while people are building or doing rennos can be normal and people do like privacy- we would for our family, so high fences are fine as we don't want to be stepping on each-others toes. In England I've heard that individual house blocks are less normal.

Here in Canada's country side we also have the newcomers to our village that put up high privacy fences. These tall ugly fences should be outlawed.

Hello from Nottinghamshire Sam! Do you need planning consent in Russia when building on the plots of land? There are so many different styles of housing, it looks like people can just build what they like. Great content, loving your channel.

[@Diocilis]

Before construction, the approval of the project in the local administration is required. (this is just a formality) And after construction, if the building is considered capital, you need to register it for taxes. Taxes are quite low. For example, the annual tax on a house of 230 square meters (approximately 2,450 square feet) is about $140.

[@ВиталийГришанов-к8з]

Сейчас собираюсь вместо старого дома в деревне, строить новый. Неделю назад был в местной администрации, где мне сказали главное условие. Расстояние от забора не менее 3 метров. Когда будет дом построен, нужно будет вызвать геодезиста, чтобы он произвел все замеры снаружи и внутри дома. После этого дом ставится на кадастровый учёт. У меня в деревне 30 соток земли(3002квадратных метра). Налог на землю около 3000рублей(30 долларов) в год. Плюс к этому 4-5 долларов за дом. Он у меня маленький и старый. Это моя дача. Это дополнение к городской квартире. Это место где я отдыхаю душой. Думаю, что примерно у трети городского населения России есть дачи.

Sam's content is so valuable. Other channels just focus on Russian life but Sam covers topics that will actually help you in so many of your decision-making processes when you get to Russia so you'll be prepared. I have to admit the only thing that i don't like about Russian houses is that most Russian people(as shown in these videos) throw so much garbage and junk all around the perimeter of their property. What is the deal with builting a beautiful home just to treat the outside like a dumping ground for materials??? I mean honestly, stack it up and put it inside your perimeter fencing. They let the grass grown out of control on the outsides too. It seems that nobody wants to manicure their property even outside their gates.

Credit system was never developed across Communist/Socialist states in East Europe. After 90s people wanted similar life style like in western block and started building bigger and costlier houses. There is option you build on your own pace according money surplus ( sometimes takes life long until finish) or taking credit with higher interest rates ( compared to western countries) and risking to lose everything if you are not able to pay credit. Young generation detached from socialist past prefer fast progress and personal time. In general, most people are not critically indebted because they are careful in taking credits and young people are helped by parents from the same reasons.
