    Hi, Elena. That looks like a relaxing place to spend a weekend. It was interesting to hear how much you enjoyed reading Tom Sawyer. Maybe I need to read it again as an adult, too 😊

      @Elena's Travels Yes, it will also be interesting to me because I'm familiar with the Mississippi River and the town where Mark Twain lived because it is near where I live 🙂

    Hi Elena. It's always nice to travel back to beloved childhood places. As a child, we don't think about how dirty we get. We just have fun. Are all the dachas built differently?

    • @elenastravels
      @elenastravels  Год назад +4

      Hi Kevin! You’re right. No, there are all kinds of dachas - from simple huts to literally palaces 😅

    Elena's Dacha film is my favourite and I'm so happy she has returned this year and made part two! The place is beautiful and her aunt and cat are fabulous company. The loft is nostalgic as is the old radio. Sometimes the filming is too fast because every frame is summer wonderful and worth taking time to savour, especially the dacha interior with it's old clock, wood yoke, stove and the magic self sufficient garden that surrounds it. Thank you for this beautiful feeling!

    You and your aunt looked really happy there, and for good reason. The neighbour was right, good fresh air in the morning is certainly not a bad thing, and it's so nice and quiet there, and good people it seems.

    Thanks for keeping bits of Russian language in the video. I like comparing how much more advanced your season is, I am nowhere near getting cucumbers. Strawberries are about the same stage. We used to play in a castle that Mary Queen of Scots lived in....It became more regulated so the fun ended. From my upstairs I could also see the Estuary and the light house flashing in winter when the tree leaves fell. The treasure Island author was from my town so lots of adventures. I think the digger is a Chinese development.

    Wood houses are great, and insulation can also be added inside the walls, perfect to protect against heat or cold.

    Our Lenochka is back to the country dacha in the summer, where she belongs😊. The items in the farmer’s market look AMAZING and the village is simply from an old Skazka! My grandparents would make similar Lepyeshki at their summer dacha (complete with wall rugs and Cherdak that we would sleep in when we visited) in New Jersey and they were yummy! Foraging for berries is always fun but beware of Kleshchi 😉. Thanks again for a beautiful and relaxing video in these troubled times.

    What a lovely community, so far from the Civic centre or the well beaten path. Especially enjoyed the portion about the attic, and your childhood views of the world, as it lay at your feet, the horizon seeming so far away. Now look at you and the travels you've had.

    I enjoyed this video of your visit to the dacha that holds such special memories from your childhood. My grandfather built a cottage away from noise and bustle of the city (Chicago). I too have precious memories of spending time there especially during the summer.

    It's fascinating watching how people in Russia use Kefir. -- Here's an amusing story for you: though I'm an American, I was able to get kefir grains that originally came from Russia and when they ferment a batch of milk, I just add berries, bananas and honey to make it into a shake basically.
    I have heard that this is an unusual way to drink it, is that so?

    • @elenastravels
      @elenastravels  Год назад

      Yes, we like kefir 😅 You’re right it’s not the most common way of drinking it but it sounds delicious 😋
