My grandmother kept telling me that she was going to die soon when I was little. I only worked out now that she was around 55 years old back then. She is still alive at 84, doesn't wear a headscarf but has a carpet on her wall.
Aww enjoy your tine with grandmothers as you possibly can. Mine passed away when I was a teen and I miss her so much. She was a wonderful woman and tough and strong and just the strongest woman I ever known in my life. My mother is the same way tho. haha.
russian winters are quite cold ... so the walls are also cold . rugs are hung on walls above beds or couches to block cool air which radiates from those walls. in the times of the USSR rugs were also investment + status symbol + wall decorations ... for example Persian rugs are famous all over the world and very expensive
Brazilian' grandmothers do the same. And for food.. They force feed you until you become obese!! By the way, my grandmother (father's side) had one carpet on the wall. Was a nice piece with a roaster on it. It is art! :P
Idk... tradition? In Western Europe, they had gobelins. In the East, hand-woven wall carpets. They are a nice decoration and a sign of wealth. I guess poor Americans just can't afford them (or even wallpaper), so they're stuck with plain drywall.
It is more like a headscarf. It`s kind of a part of traditional women`s costume in Russia. Of course, not all granmas wear these, but those who have lived their whole live in a countryside in a village or smthn would wear this becouse of traditions. For example, both of my grandmas are from the city, and they dont wear a headscarf.
Slavic tradition (mainly after christening) allowed only little girls and unmarried to be seen with uncovered hair. It's comes from the past, nowadays it's fading and is really required only if a women entering the church. BTW Russian girls was ought to have only one hair plait before marriage and two after. Twas a lot of such cultural traditions.
I wanted to say that this really reminded me of my grandma when she was alive. She came from Poland but was just like this. She was 95 when she passed two years ago. Thanks for making this :)
Oh haha i remember stinging nettle that stuff used to grow in ditches on the sides of roads. I remember falling off my bike so many times into those things.
I’m Russian but lived in America my whole life, and my grandma is ALWAYS COLD I never understood why since she should be used it but idk lol, this is what she says: Здесь дует идём садится там, Здесь тоже дует ой, Спросите если они могут выключить! Me: Бабушка на улице жарко 🤣

Wave Rider хотя с одной стороны бедные дети, тоже я в детстве эти киндер сюрпризы любил, собирал коллекции, а это всё маркетинг, массовая культура, эти безделушки не имеют никакой ценности как и шоколад киндер)) киндер это транснациональная корпорация, на наших родителях делали деньги, все эти марсы сникерсы жвачки наклейки чипсы газировки ничего полезного детям не дали и дать не могут, когда вспоминают про детство 90ых вспоминают только продукты и бренды транснациональных корпораций

Zahar Panda yep. This vid really reminded me of my grandma and other Hungarian women in my family
aren't Hungarian people slavs too?
No, but we share a lot of history. (I mean with us Czechs and Slovaks who are Slavs)
Hungarians are related to Germans/Austrians if I'm not mistaken.
Why are there ALWAYS rugs on the wall?
It's an ancient secret of "Russian Grandmas"
Its because russians live in shity houses so rugs stop wind
2ez 4me cause it's pretty
Yea, i know cause i live in Lithuania and its kinda like Russia
Idk... tradition? In Western Europe, they had gobelins. In the East, hand-woven wall carpets. They are a nice decoration and a sign of wealth. I guess poor Americans just can't afford them (or even wallpaper), so they're stuck with plain drywall.

The sour cream, and the carpet though. 😂
Your "Thank you Grandma" sounds a lot like my German friend!
Carpet on the wall 👌🏻
Can someone explain why Russian grandmas wear scarves
It is more like a headscarf. It`s kind of a part of traditional women`s costume in Russia. Of course, not all granmas wear these, but those who have lived their whole live in a countryside in a village or smthn would wear this becouse of traditions. For example, both of my grandmas are from the city, and they dont wear a headscarf.
It's a Russian Orthodox Church thing
it's called platok, and it's very cosy and warm...
It's like saying Indian women wear sarees all the time.
Slavic tradition (mainly after christening) allowed only little girls and unmarried to be seen with uncovered hair. It's comes from the past, nowadays it's fading and is really required only if a women entering the church.
BTW Russian girls was ought to have only one hair plait before marriage and two after. Twas a lot of such cultural traditions.
babuska xD Greetings from Greece
Grandma's have the weirdest remedies that actually work.
True
I wanted to say that this really reminded me of my grandma when she was alive. She came from Poland but was just like this. She was 95 when she passed two years ago. Thanks for making this :)

My dad said to keep the walls warm... but we never had one on the wall... so
russian winters are quite cold ... so the walls are also cold . rugs are hung on walls above beds or couches to block cool air which radiates from those walls. in the times of the USSR rugs were also investment + status symbol + wall decorations ... for example Persian rugs are famous all over the world and very expensive
I've always wondered what the carpet on the wall was meant for. Great video though!
we have carpets on our Walls because most of The time The carpets Are near beds, so when we turn over we don't get cold (or hurt ourselves)
Ah grandmas ❤️ no one will ever love you and care for you the way they do!
Granny-version you is hilarious! 😄 Oh, btw, I want a Russian grandma, too! 😍
Sour cream on sunburn probably works good!

As a Slav I approve
