Elina this is well presented Sami life, the reindeer and your interview of a local Sami. A diverse Russia hope you can have also from Komi Republic especially Vorkuta!
Eli you are becoming a wonderful reporter and a marvelous ambassador for your country. I have always been interested in Russia, but now I feel I must visit it someday! Thanks.
Learned about the existance of the Sami people a week ago and was very pleased to see you making with this video ! Very informative , keep making more of this content ! Greetings for Portugal :)
Enjoyed this video so much Eli! I like how a lot of your videos are done documentary style and are so professionally done. Thank you for what you do. I would definitely like to learn more about different ethnic groups.
Eli you have very long thick hair. Love the color of your hair. Can't take eyes off. Very nice reporting about Russia. Always wanted to know about the diversity
Great video and information. I saw once in the Hermitage the migration route from Altai to the West and the North of this world and I saw in your video in the museum things that I also saw in Altai! Thank you again! ❤
These people come off as the most peace-loving people and ethnicities. I hope they're given the protection and help to continue their traditions and have the freedom to continue their culture and lifestyles. Magnificent Children of the Nature.
Came across your channel on my tv a few weeks ago (first time logging in to my youtube account to actually comment) and can't stop watching. Keep up the great work! Would love to visit Russia one day. I am fascinated with its history and have been for a while.
I love how Russia is so diverse with every cultures, religion respected. I lived in the west United Kingdom and what we hear is just all rubbish from the western news about Russia. For me Russia has the most diverse cultures in the world. Every Republics is different and all under Russia federation. Love Russia

Da Hungry Girls look familiar. lol Thank You for more awesome views of people and I hope their rights to their ways with nature are given freedom especially to fish.
Same years ago I was watching a movie "big game" with a boy named Onni Tommilla. I thought "how strange is this boy, light haired and Asian-like eyes". Later I read he was a Sami.
Laponia(Groenlandia)- Samis, Ártico , Siberia, Rusia Occidental norte, nativos de las Américas, Polinesios, Mongoles de las estepas, todos tienen el mismo patrón, culturas similares, hasta folclore.
12:53 I have lived all my life in a big city and it is crazy. You have been in Lovozero in the Kola video, did you go back there or is this vid from the same trip?
Eli I have to say it is sad that the Sami people not have joined the Norwegian Samea, Swedish and Finish Lapps inn what we call "Same tinget". Here in Norway plus Sweden and Finland the Same people even have their own nasjonal day. Tha 6th of February is the nasjonal day for the Sami people in Scandinavia. Same tinget is a Sami government that work as a common goverment when they have issues with things about human rights. But every one of the 3 countries hav also national government for their own local community. If the Russian Sami people have bin a member of the "Same tinget", they would benefit from a bigger press group. And all Sami people are close related to the Norwegian Same people. So it would be a natruly ting to have them represented in "Same tinget".
Thank you so much for posting and hosting the topic of Russian Sámi! I am a Sami-American and I have not found very much insights into that area of Saami, so your interviews and insights are amazing.
Eli, there are very few Russian RUclipsrs like you that deliver such high quality and insightful content. Subscribing to your channel has certainly changed many of previous stereotypical views on Russia (I blame our government and education system). Yes, please do more videos on the Sami people. Thankyou for all your hard work and wishing you more subscribers! Best wishes from Sydney, Australia! 🐨
Let's not get carried away 😅 i think she's cute, smiley, and that she's really got something there, as far as RUclips world is concerned : Russia is kinda mysterious country for Western ppl, not well known, with a century long war of "opinion" between 2 worlds etc... Moreover it has a huge territory, hence so many different ethnicities, cultures, religions, beliefs, and so on and so on.. so yeah, she's on to smthg here, or at least for a year maybe 2 and by then... but as far as the quality of the videos are concerned, the level of professionalism... oy oy oyyyy... well you're not quite there @Eli I'm sorry I'm not saying that to be rude AT ALL, I think you're great, have a "RUclips profile"and really try! And I'm pretty sure you'll get there! But as for now, not quite yet... sound is awful with wind effect, fluctuations of volume..., same with light settings, you're not even trying my friend.. for instance Caspian See footage could've been GORGEOUS with the right settings, even your breakout... instead it's obscure, scales of dark grey... Also you're looking at the camera all the time, even when interacting with an individual, even worse interviewing him/her, like the Tchetchenya weddings one (it gives a frozen/old school effect, you gotta make your audience feel you're just chatting casually with someone, give it a glance sometimes, ok, but mainly looking at the person...). Editing also.... your final cut OFTEN comprises useless images (I remember a sequence with garbage behind a house in Moscow, washing machine, boots... 3mn is a super long time in streaming experience, you lose interest and think "what the f... am I looking at??" 😅 Well all in one, I'd say if you're into that now, get the right equipment, the good filming/editing/lighting blabla lessons from the right ppl (DIY or why not, classes!) And you'll be perfectly ok 👍🏻 cause the most important thing (BUT not the only one!!) is to find a right angle/topic, and I'm pretty sure you got that good 😊this is ONLY one's opinion! good luck Eli!
Well I don't know much about the different ethnic groups in Russia... So I would absolutely love to hear more about the Sami and other groups. I think it is important, that we don't lose track of the different cultures of the world.
Much like the indigenous peoples of North America, the Sami live in harmony with nature. Thank you Eli for taking us on this wonderful tour! I would love to hear and see more about the different ethnic groups and unique natural locations of people in your country.
Small populations live in harmony with nature, to a certain degree. Urbarnization demands large amounts of industrial and other activities. But any rural area or small city in the world lives in harmony with nature. Look at small towns in western countries and you will see.
@@silasbishop3055 some did, some didn’t. Just like everyone in the world. But natives americans are notorious for slash and burn agriculture to this day. The amazon fires caused by humans here in Brazil comes mostly from them.
меня зовут джон, я люблю русский язык, моя жена русская. у нас есть две старшие девочки (вашего возраста) и еще 12 лет, она говорит на четырех языках. твои видео как будто смотришь на свою жизнь. We just returned from a trip to Finland and Russia for Christmas and New Year. Thank you, stay safe and keep up the great work!
First heard of the Sami people when Noraly visited northern Sweden on her travels. Of course I would, learning about others is enjoyable. The Sami have it right, do not sacrifice anything that will loose your freedom. It seemed like four minutes instead of fourteen Eli, with your lovely presentation of the Sami people.
You said Norway and Russia, but not Sweden. I was in Sweden Close to Arctic circle and that was the first place I meet and learned about Sami people. Being from central Europe it was very exciting 😄 to meet other ethnic minority of people we have in Europe. If I recall correctly, Sami people in Sweden spoke Sami language. Do they speak the same language in Russia, or they speak now only Russian.
@@janlampert5688 I never made it to Europe Jan. I watched Noraly who travels the world on motorcycles (Itchyboots on youtube Season 3Episode 24). Did you confuse "NORAlY" name for Norway? Take care 'n have a great day.
A am from Russia and it is great pleasure for me to watch such videos about my native country. Eli, thank you so much! I am waiting for new stories about other regions of Russia telling by you
Сам русский, но обожаю смотреть ваши видео! Очень интересно узнавать то, насколько разнообразна наша страна. Спасибо огромное. Я считаю, многие россияне должны увидеть такие выпуски
Such a lovely personable way of presenting ethnic cultures. Seems like the problems of the Sami are essentially the same as most arctic indigenous cultures, if not all indigenous peoples everywhere. I look forward with anticipation for further excellent videos.
Thanks Eli for all these videos about Russia. I am learning a lot about Russia and it's diverse culture and terrain without even visiting it. Looking forward to more such videos this year.
Thank you thank you thank you so very much for that program I would like to know more about the ethnic groups in Russia this is just beautiful the country is beautiful the landscape the waters the mountains thank you so much it's brought me a lot of pleasure I'm retired I'm 70 years old female African American and I just love what you're doing I get to travel without traveling this is so exciting to me thank you dear young person thank you very very much from your friend Diane I appreciate all that you do
Hello 🙂 Eli!! VERY interesting and fascinating to say the least!! The people should never lose their hunting rights on their native land!! 💚 the reindeer!! More videos on this group as well as other ethnicities would be 🤓 AWESOME!!! Take care, Eli!! How cold is it there??? 😏✌🏽🤔🥶💚
Right on, Gene. The Sami do strive to defend their rights! // NGOs: The Saami Council is an umbrella non-governmental organization for Saami orgs in Finland, Sweden, Norway and the Russian Federation. The Saami Council was founded in 1956, and today has 9 member organizations including 2 from Russia: Kola Saami Assoc (AKS) and Saami Assoc of the Murmansk Region (OOSMO). The 22nd Sami Conference will be held in 2022, this time in Sweden. Sami conferences promote Sami people’s livelihoods, rights, languages and culture. // Political entities: Finland, Sweden and Norway each has its own Sami parliament (Sámediggi). These elected Sami parliaments are constitutionally recognised self-governing bodies meant to promote sami people’s cultural self-determination. They function mainly as consultative bodies officially representing Sami interests both nationally and internationally. The Sámi Parliamentary Council (SPC) is the co-operational body for the 3 Nordic Sámi parliaments. The SPC was founded in 2000, and the 3 parliaments each lead the SPC for a period of 16 months. Because there is no elected body for the Sámi yet in Russia, the Russian Sámi have been allotted 2 permanent representatives on the Sámi Parliamentary Council.
@@alpovratia6488 Thank you for the very detailed information!! I love the simple life of the Sami people!! I hope they keep their traditions and lifestyle alive for future generations!! ✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽
I will always appreciate more videos about Sapmi people and their culture ! And videos about other ethnic minorities of Russia would be great too, in the same way as your other videos about Russia.
You said at the beginning that they're a dying ethnic group who refuse to live in civilisation. One of your interviewees states that their population has remained stable over time (not dying) and from what I could tell, they were all lovely and civilised people. They probably would prefer to be left alone. I think 'civil'isation is a misnomer. City folk are very often uncivil in their treatment of regional indigenous minorities.
Civilization in it's original sense means a settled lifestyle where the people have traded their hunter gatherer lifestyle for agricultural lifestyle (or industrial). Sami people refuse to live in a settled civilization but are nice and humane.
The Sami are not the oldest group in the nordic countries, there lived SHG/Scandinavian hunter-gatherers there long before the Sami and even the Norse people lived there in the early bronze age. That is about 2000-1500 years before any group of Sami came to Scandinavia. So the sami argument is totally false and its use to push nordic people down
I love your videos...thank you for all your work and cultural interests. My own heritage: Father is Polish, Mother Russian Soviet from Bukhara, left after WWll
Hello Eli. I love watching ur videos. You are such a beautiful soul. I never knew how big Russia is. I had a best friend in high school she was Russian. She passed away in 2015. I miss her a lot. I think u are great. Keep making the videos. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😄😁😁
Acabo de llegar al canal, me gusto el video, el interesante saber sobre estos pueblos que son únicos, también me llamo la atención que se puedan ver osos, buen video, saludos
Very interesting. The Sami woman (with her young son) made a point which seems international, she was asked how many reindeer her family owned but would not answer. 16,000 km away we are asked the same sort of question, 'how many sheep do you run, how many cattle do you have and how many acres of land do you own?'. I usually skirt around an answer for the same reason, it's like being asked how much money do you have. A friend of mine has 4 million acres (in drier areas of the country) and it's funny to see the response by any questioner when he's asked that question. Their jaws literally drop. Great to see Eli again.
Thank you for this video! I absolutely love learning about people like the Sami. Is it true the Sami are particularly small people? The lady with the glasses you talked with looked very short and I do not believe you are a really tall girl. The famous world war 2 sniper Simo Hayha was very short, and if I am correct, was Sami too. I find it fascinating people like the Sami who choose to hold on to their culture and traditions by living in their very harsh but ancestral lands. Awesome video, Eli.
I dont know if the sami in russia have a different dialect than sami who live in the Lapland. Got any idea? Cuz while I only speak finnish of the finno-ugric languages, it still sounded eerily kinda similar but different.
Very beautiful video, as usual. Thanks to your videos I know better Russia, which undoubtedly is a wonderful country, so different from one place to another, where different ethnic groups like the Sami, still survive above all in places where life is hard, because of the harsh climatic conditions. Thank you very much
I'm watching your video from Bangladesh.By watching your videos I interested about Russia and it's beauty.I would like to thank you to introduce huge secret mind blowing beauty in Russia. Love♥️♥️ from Bangladesh.
Nice video, thank you! At time 1:14 you refer Sami as "...a dying ethnic group", (I hope I heard this right), which is a bit of a dark statement. I think Sami are doing guite well overall. Second, in the video (at times 6:17, 9:03; 9:57; 10:56) you have footage of a another deer species, probably red deer, not a native species in Kola peninsula. Where were these filmed? Is there a husbandry of red deer in Lovozero? The native reindeer, on which Sami rely on, is a totally different thing!
Very interesting episode. Most Sami seem to live in Scandinavia and this is the first video of Russian Sami that I have seen. They live a difficult but committed life style and its very impressive. It seems however that they suffer from some political discrimination and this makes it more challenging for them. The native American culture has similar issues. Sad to see this.
What "political discrimination"? What are you talking about? Understand that Russia is a country of opportunities! Understand that in Russia it is bad form to boast of one's nationality. You will not be elected the head of an enterprise on a national basis .. Only and exclusively according to human and professional criteria. You can be anyone - Russian, Ukrainian, Asian or African. It all depends on what kind of person you are and what professional you are. By the way, the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation is Shoigu, a Tuvan by nationality. Tuvans are not a large nationality, about 250 thousand people. .Do not mix politics where there is no politics in principle))
They live in Samiland. Which is northern Scandinavia and Russia,, and they have the rights to migrate across and borders in the respective area.. and the majority are actually quite wealthy nowadays
Sami are quite a big part of Swedish culture and they have some autonomy with special legislation and the "sametinget" council. Interesting to see this perspective. Спасибо большой ели

They function mainly as consultative bodies officially representing Sami interests both nationally and internationally. The Sámi Parliamentary Council (SPC) is the co-operational body for the 3 Nordic Sámi parliaments. The SPC was founded in 2000, and the 3 parliaments each lead the SPC for a period of 16 months. Because there is no elected body for the Sámi yet in Russia, the Russian Sámi have been allotted 2 permanent representatives on the Sámi Parliamentary Council.

Animals need to be protected
This was very interesting, Eli. I'd love to see more videos on the indigenous peoples of Russia. Thanks much!
I will always appreciate more videos about Sapmi people and their culture ! And videos about other ethnic minorities of Russia would be great too, in the same way as your other videos about Russia.
Eli you just keep getting better and better.
i love how you show the different parts of Russia. I never knew most of the stuff you show but very interesting
How tall are you Eli?
You said at the beginning that they're a dying ethnic group who refuse to live in civilisation. One of your interviewees states that their population has remained stable over time (not dying) and from what I could tell, they were all lovely and civilised people. They probably would prefer to be left alone.
I think 'civil'isation is a misnomer. City folk are very often uncivil in their treatment of regional indigenous minorities.
Civilization in it's original sense means a settled lifestyle where the people have traded their hunter gatherer lifestyle for agricultural lifestyle (or industrial). Sami people refuse to live in a settled civilization but are nice and humane.
The Sami are not the oldest group in the nordic countries, there lived SHG/Scandinavian hunter-gatherers there long before the Sami and even the Norse people lived there in the early bronze age. That is about 2000-1500 years before any group of Sami came to Scandinavia. So the sami argument is totally false and its use to push nordic people down
I love your videos...thank you for all your work and cultural interests.
My own heritage: Father is Polish, Mother Russian Soviet from Bukhara, left after WWll
Jewish or what ethnic background?
Around 60% of Sami live in Norway, 30% in Sweden, 10% in Finland and 2% in Russia. (Rough numbers)
Hello Eli. I love watching ur videos. You are such a beautiful soul. I never knew how big Russia is. I had a best friend in high school she was Russian. She passed away in 2015. I miss her a lot. I think u are great. Keep making the videos. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😄😁😁
Very informative. Gorgeous. Thank you and Best Wishes.
Acabo de llegar al canal, me gusto el video, el interesante saber sobre estos pueblos que son únicos, también me llamo la atención que se puedan ver osos, buen video, saludos
They are all cute darling lovely beautiful gorgeous reindeer.
Very interesting.
The Sami woman (with her young son) made a point which seems international, she was asked how many reindeer her family owned but would not answer. 16,000 km away we are asked the same sort of question, 'how many sheep do you run, how many cattle do you have and how many acres of land do you own?'.
I usually skirt around an answer for the same reason, it's like being asked how much money do you have. A friend of mine has 4 million acres (in drier areas of the country) and it's funny to see the response by any questioner when he's asked that question. Their jaws literally drop.
Great to see Eli again.
I have a friend who rents land he owns to his Sámi neighbours, and the rent is paid in reindeer.
@@cdl0 Now that's unique!
Thank you for this video! I absolutely love learning about people like the Sami. Is it true the Sami are particularly small people? The lady with the glasses you talked with looked very short and I do not believe you are a really tall girl. The famous world war 2 sniper Simo Hayha was very short, and if I am correct, was Sami too. I find it fascinating people like the Sami who choose to hold on to their culture and traditions by living in their very harsh but ancestral lands. Awesome video, Eli.
Häyhä was karelian
@@SoulWeasel69 True, Häyhä was from Rautjärvi, Karelia (present Finnish side)
I dont know if the sami in russia have a different dialect than sami who live in the Lapland. Got any idea? Cuz while I only speak finnish of the finno-ugric languages, it still sounded eerily kinda similar but different.
Very beautiful video, as usual. Thanks to your videos I know better Russia, which undoubtedly is a wonderful country, so different from one place to another, where different ethnic groups like the Sami, still survive above all in places where life is hard, because of the harsh climatic conditions. Thank you very much
I'm watching your video from Bangladesh.By watching your videos I interested about Russia and it's beauty.I would like to thank you to introduce huge secret mind blowing beauty in Russia.
Love♥️♥️ from Bangladesh.
Finally a new Video =D
Much Love from Utrecht
Nice video, thank you! At time 1:14 you refer Sami as "...a dying ethnic group", (I hope I heard this right), which is a bit of a dark statement. I think Sami are doing guite well overall. Second, in the video (at times 6:17, 9:03; 9:57; 10:56) you have footage of a another deer species, probably red deer, not a native species in Kola peninsula. Where were these filmed? Is there a husbandry of red deer in Lovozero? The native reindeer, on which Sami rely on, is a totally different thing!
Thank you Eli, greetings from Holland.
Very interesting episode. Most Sami seem to live in Scandinavia and this is the first video of Russian Sami that I have seen. They live a difficult but committed life style and its very impressive. It seems however that they suffer from some political discrimination and this makes it more challenging for them. The native American culture has similar issues. Sad to see this.
@@paceventura The owners/managers are not natives usually, just opportunists.🤔
What "political discrimination"? What are you talking about? Understand that Russia is a country of opportunities! Understand that in Russia it is bad form to boast of one's nationality. You will not be elected the head of an enterprise on a national basis .. Only and exclusively according to human and professional criteria. You can be anyone - Russian, Ukrainian, Asian or African. It all depends on what kind of person you are and what professional you are. By the way, the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation is Shoigu, a Tuvan by nationality. Tuvans are not a large nationality, about 250 thousand people. .Do not mix politics where there is no politics in principle))
They live in Samiland. Which is northern Scandinavia and Russia,, and they have the rights to migrate across and borders in the respective area.. and the majority are actually quite wealthy nowadays
Sami are quite a big part of Swedish culture and they have some autonomy with special legislation and the "sametinget" council. Interesting to see this perspective. Спасибо большой ели
1:39 - I was especially surprised by this very long southwest corner
Your information is wrong they are also living in Finland, Sweden and Norway.
SAMI on serbian means ALONE. Greatings from Serbia.
Nicely done, I am part Sami, (in the USA) and this put a very nice perspective THANKYOU, and I would love to see more on the Sami!!
Very nice and informative. Bravo madame you are a very good teacher
Very interesting. I always look forward to your videos, Eli, because you show us places and people in Russia that most of us never knew existed!
very enjoyable 👍 i always wanted to know more about Russia
They are all cute darling lovely beautiful gorgeous animals.
