  • It makes me appreciate what I have taken for granted all these years. Had I not seen this I would not have ever given common household appliances and high-tech a second thought. There is an unavoidable starkness that gives me pause for viewing economics, community, quality of life and survival in different facets. To write that this is just "Rural Ukraine" belies the patina of regional history that words do not do justice.

  • Bystiv is a Living Museum there living at many levels in Village. But in end it all linked to the Land everyone has gardens that how they live. It simpler life but hard work.

  • No offense... I am from Chernivtsiy and I haven't seen a great deal of people living in a style like this. It's a really nice video but I think it could give somewhat of a false impression about my country to people who don't understand.

  • That where I live In Ukraine, I have other stuff from Cites Yalta Odessa & Kiev & LVIV. Notice Title Ukraine Village life.I myself prefer Village to LVIV

  • Look at the collection as a whole this is normal where I am at. Just because I dont show new Gas Stations & Mcdonalds or new Supermarket that not interesting. There 6 cars in village my friend Igor has Jetta Nice care but still get water from well. It the way it has always been.

  • there is nothing wrong with this life,  if a war ever breaks out these people will know how to survive, in the New York City maybe 80% would die as they have no clue to life without power, running water and corner food store

  • there is good side to it.: you enjoy fresh air, organic food, real drinking water, real milk, real eggs! Have you tried real organic produce? It tastes so good.!! So yeah - if you want to downshift for a while or improve you health go and live in Ukrainian village.

  • @martuletachka but you have runninh water 2 times a day and you even cannot water tailet paper but you throw it next to the shithole (coz you dont have toilets you stinkpots

  • Many Americans lived like this during The Great Depression,my Mom did to an extent.

  • You are so right. Good job my family have me: They mock me for growing my own vegetables etc...They are so stupid and lazy and they are blind....

  • That's bloody true!!!

  • What's wrong with living like this? People are such snobs with their celebrity butt licking, hate of public transport etc. And I see high technology and renewable energy in here with this simpler life, too!

  • lucky you are not in EU, they would put an end to small farm life.
