I will hazard to guess that your granddad might have never suspected that the magnificent work he did in this dacha would be seen by hundreds of thousands (maybe millions!) of people worldwide, thanks to your RUclips channel and this lovely tour.
This reminds me of my granddaddy’s rented house and yard in San Francisco. He loved to garden, cook, and build so we spent lots of time outside messing with him when I was Agatha’s age in the 1950s. I know this place holds good memories for you and it’s cool you will be able to share it with Agatha.
In Soviet Russia, the "Government" Didn't Do any Favors For the People. As Is Today, Russia is Governed by Socialism and Ruled by "Dictators" Like Putin. "Everything" in Soviet Russia was about Total Control of the People. Grandad was No Exception. His Little Plot of Land was about "CONTROL"!! The People Just Didn't Realize It. All Propaganda!!
Beautiful video. I am a grandpa myself, but sadly my baby granddaughter Nyla died just before Christmas 2020. It makes it even more special to see a young girl like you having such a special relationship with her grandparents. It makes me think of the life we would have had with Nyla. It made me so happy to see you. Thank you.
Hello ime so so sorry for your sad loss ime a Granfather to ime sitting here trying to write the right words but i cant ,my heart aches for you and the mam and dad of your Granchild just to say ime thinking of all of you God bless from Ireland .
@Terry Thorne I am so sorry for your loss! Reading your story made me cry for a while. It's just so sad and I can't imagine how you and Nyla’s parents are handling this tragedy. Wish all the best to your family and may God bless you all with everything you may dream of💛
@@yorkymc Thank you Yorky. It's hard to explain the bond that a grandparent has with a grandchild that was only with us for ten weeks. Listening to you though shows me that you understand how we are feeling. My son and daughter in law are still devastated but we are a very close family and we're all supporting each other. Thank you for your kind words. They really are a comfort to us.
Thank you for the tour. Very nice dacha. Some of us still have outside toilets in the US. I have one built in 1935 on our property. It gets a lot of use while our house is being renovated.
This is very big place. Surprised at the size of garden. Your grandfather was very talented. Goid memories for you. Lovely place and you have good hubby. Thanks for posting.
@@kevingreen6924 I can’t speak for every english speaking culture but here in the UK a patio would indeed be attached to the house, mine is. Gazebo is the word.
Your channel is such a blessing. Seeing your beautiful, happy family enjoying time together fills my heart with joy. I especially appreciated seeing the older photographs. Thank you and God bless.
Thank you, Vika for your simplistic explanations about life in Russia, I was born in The Netherlands but moved in 1982 to New Zealand. During the cold war (1968) when I was in the army we were taught to be fearful of Russia. I didn't buy that, as my philosophy was that there must be people like me in Russia. I was determent that one day I will go to Russia, especially Siberia to find out for myself. In 2004 my life's journey took me to Krasnoyarsk where I lived for about 12 months. I lived in Moscow for 3 months, I also was in Tolyatti, Samara, and ST Petersburg., an experience I hold close to my heart. Yes, I lived in very small apartments, but they were cozy, I spent time at people's dacha's what I thoroughly enjoyed, with the lovely food they prepared!! Moscow is definitely my favorite city, the architecture is fabulous, with the metro stations, a piece of art you don't see anywhere else on the planet, and during Xmas time you get blown away by the most wonderful decorations!!! The way lots of people socialize in a very calm and disciplined manner was rather adorable!! My experience was and is being in Russia; you don't need to be rich, to enjoy and live a satisfactory life!!!
In New England we would call the barn a tool shed and the underground storage a root cellar. Root because you store potatoes, carrots, etc. root vegetables. 😀 Eric.
In East Germany they call this place a "Datcha" and it is spelled like "Dacha". ;) In the west we call them "Schrebergarten". They are very common here, too. Especially in the last years because more and more people want to grow their own vegetables again. But they are a lot of weird regulations. Most Schrebergarten-Owners are old people and the new owner are mostly young people. The old people love the regulations. :D Sometimes they walk around with a folding rule, measuring the hedge. When it's to high, they complain! And those old people love kitschy stuff, especially garden gnomes. Their gardens are mostly NOT minimalistic with all that kitsch stuff. The younger people love to grow vegetables and sometimes to have party and so the trouble starts. :D
Your grandfather was a clever man and has left a great inheritance for his family. You said some of your relatives own it now, I hope they allow you free use of it, it looks a lovely place to stay and of course Agatha gets to play outside.
I've been blessed to live in American suburban culture my entire life. I have always had room for gardening out back of any house I've lived in. I can see where the dacha culture has appeal to anyone living in an apartment or city. Thank you for sharing.
@@eddiemoir2572 Why be negative? In America, you can live where you want: cities, suburbs, farms, or even off the grid in the middle of nowhere. If suburbs are "hell" for you, don't live there. Be at peace wherever you choose to live.
Hello Vika, and thank you. At the end when you showed the pic of you and your grandfather and some other pics, tears started to flow. Then I read some of the comments from others who had the same reaction. I think we all feel like you and your beautiful family could be our relatives or neighbors and you are spreading love by sharing your life with us.
Yes, you are correct about the cellar. My grandmother and grandfather which we called MaMah and PaPah had a cellar. My grandmother would fix apple butter in the cellar with a huge iron kettle and shelves of cinnamon candy. She would cook over an open fire. All the women would cut up the apples and cook them in the huge iron kettle and add cinnamon candy to the apples. Us kids ate the cinnamon candy. She would can the apple butter. They had a huge garden and she canned everything. We are from West Virginia and all the men would hunt deer, squirrel, turkey and my brother was a big fisherman also. I am 64 years old and it was simple back then. I love your show and you have a beautiful family. God Bless!
Love thus tour. What quaint little cottage. I am so surprised to see that Russia is very much like the United State of America with the flowers and trees. Silly me I thought it was Siberia and a lot of snow. To Russia with Love. Florida, U.S.A.
Such a beautiful and charming place, it's all the more special because your Grandfather put so much love and care into it for his family! How happy he would be to see lovely little Agatha running around! X
Я нашла вас, когда искала канал на ютубе , который помогает мне изучать русский язык. Вы говорите по-английски, но для меня это не имеет значения, я все еще здесь 😊 отличная работа 👏🏻 😊
Beautiful. I name our oldest son after my grandfather, who passed away 2 years before my son was born. I'm in New England, suburbs of Boston. We tend to have gazebos to sit in the yard by the garden, though we drink far more coffee than tea. It is special to have your own babies play where you grew up and became the person you are.
Thank you sweetheart for showing us the Dacha this is a nice place. Your husband and the adorable precious and sweet little baby boy.Thanks for sharing Jesus loves you all and so do I kind people.
Wow, after the whole video, the ending gave me goosebumps. The music and slowed down film and spontaneous happiness. It feels like a professional film documentary, like something out of Netflix.
In America we call the outdoor toilet an outhouse!😄😄😄 My Grandparents had one on their farm. They also had a root cellar like what you showed. It was also used as a place to go if there were any tornados. 🌪🌪🌪. God bless you and your family sister Vikka! 😊🕊🔥💖✝️💕❤
Hello from Lake Placid , Florida , USA . I enjoyed this video ! Your grand father was a talented man ! Keep the videos coming ! You have such a sweet family ! I enjoy your cooking videos as well ! Keep smiling !
Being a lithuanian brings back so many memories! My mum had exactly same thing back in the day, unfortunately no house on her dacha, but I used to love going there and was so jealous of other dacha neighbours having houses there and being able to stay the night 🙈
Not sure how I came across your videos. You are so engaging and I find your videos interesting to watch. Your daughter is adorable and your interactions as a family are beautiful. I have been to Russia twice and regret not making it into the smaller cities or countryside more. I did spend a lot of time in Moscow and walked many of the streets. I also spent time in beautiful St. Petersburg wandering the streets, marvelling at the actitecture. The history of Russia, as with any country is both horrifying and beautiful and that you seek out the beauty to show us is why you are such a joy to watch
Beautiful yard & home. My father had carpentry skills and I have some designing and carpentry skills. My grandparents had gardens. I helped some, with their gardens. I Love it, living up in the mountains, out in nature, away from the city life. I am an educated, always learning, "Country Girl" who LOVES The LORD & Loves Life. I Love fire places. I have one in the mountain home I rent but it needs to be cleaned and repaired, for it to be working again. Beautiful rug.
That would make a lovely tiny house to live in permanently, especially with the space for growing food and the cellar for storage. The banya not getting finished because your grandpa is no longer here made me a little sad. But he built so many beautiful things.
The cellar would be a root cellar for storing root vegetables, apples and so on 👍 The summer house is so sweet, you could call it a gazebo but summer house would be the old-fashioned expression I‘d use. In German it would be a Laube, especially with that green vine growing over it and keeping everything cool. What a beautiful patch of paradise your grandparents created!!
I have been blessed to experience staying at a dacha when I was visiting friends in Russia. I miss it so much. Watching this reminded me of my own memories at the dacha and it made me tear up.
Your grandad did a great job! Agatha is very sweet. The mangal would be called a barbecue in English. The structure with the grape vines growing over it is a gazebo. The cellar is indeed a cellar but when it’s not under the house it would usually be called a “fruit cellar” or “root cellar.” Nice video, thanks. My best wishes to you & your family.
Grandpa did a great job. Everything is so pretty. Beautiful dacha. It’s called a root cellar in Texas. Place to keep potatoes, etc. Your baby is beautiful, and what a sweet hubby.
I really like how you explain everything, I feel like with every video I get to know so many new things. Also, it's so wonderful for Agatha to also spend her childhood and create memories where you have. How about re creating a photo from your childhood with Agatha?. I really enjoyed watching this. 🙂
Here in Alaska, the restroom you appropriately called a “toilet” is what is referred to as an OutHouse here. Only thing really different is that we have a lot of magazines in case your, well , in there for awhile!!! Haha. Also noticed you appropriately called the Hole in the Earth a cellar. We Alaskan’s have to make things a bit more difficult by calling ours a root seller but hey who’s right/wrong! Here in our State of Alaska we are very blessed to have many of our neighbors that are originally from Russia still living amongst us. Very nice neighbors that always are willing to lift a hand and of course are great carpenters by make very cool buildings and of course churches are absolutely traditional with the outside appearance. I’ve learned a lot about our cultures and the difference over the past 28 years here and wouldn’t trade it for the world! I’m pretty sure you’ve learned a few things about how the, at the time years ago, about the whole history of then called the Alaska Territory and how everything came about to where we are today! Glad I came across your video. And please If you and your family find yourselves in Alaska, we’ve got a lot of personal behind the scenes touring my family can show you that most tourists don’t get to see! We’ve our own private plane and cabins for pleasure and cabins for hunting!! Stop by anytime!!! Cheers from Alaska USA!
@@VictoriaTerekhina another interesting fact is that Alaska (the state) was actually bought from Russia☺️ Also, that kiosk is probably called a gazebo, the closest word to describe it I think
@@minime7375 that’s kinda the tricky or sticky part of the whole issue. The Alaskan Natives tell the story one way then there’s always another way and heck in this case let’s throw in a completely different opinion. BUT, I’m not saying your wrong. Just saying there’s been a long standing debate on who actually owned the land to begin with. Very interesting subject to learn about though. Another big issue was the naming of the tallest Mountain in the whole US. Some say Mt. McKinley while the natives call it Mt Denali. Meaning the tall one. If I recall it’s finally been settled to be permanently named as originally named in honor of the Natives and so Mt Denali it is. I’ve called it that since I moved here. President McKinley had really little to nothing to do with the State at the time.
Wow! Love, love, love those windows your grandad installed in his daca! Very cute house too. I really like tiny houses and could see myself living there. Thanks for sharing your cherished memories. Sending 🤗 🤗 🤗
Of your many videos this is one of my favorites. All the best to you, your family (and we who share the planet with you) during these challenging times. Keep your spirits up and keep working (from Uzbekistan). 💞
Yesss! I've seen an Isba interior, at last! I was in Russia 6 times, always with my motorcycle, I drove past countless isbas and always I wondered about their interiior! Thankyou for the tour, your isba is lovely!!! Greetings from Italy
It was done/uoloaded 2 Years ago, I've gone through your videos long ago. Today I see it om my side bar! It's a beautiful house .I'm glad someone is taking care of it. For anyone to stay there right through the winter you'l need muscles. Clear you path which will lead to fetching more wood. You cant really go shopping so you need to have everything.
I will hazard to guess that your granddad might have never suspected that the magnificent work he did in this dacha would be seen by hundreds of thousands (maybe millions!) of people worldwide, thanks to your RUclips channel and this lovely tour.
Beautiful layout, outside as well as in. Nice workmanship.

So true!!!
nonsense

The area with the picnic table could be called either a patio or a gazebo.
i'd go with gazebo. a patio is attached to the house.

The thing my husband misses most about Russia is his grandparents dacha.
Why doesn't he go back to Russia then ?
@@eddiemoir2572 we were supposed to visit in Spring 2021. Maybe soon! The dacha is gone though.

A barn is usually a place for animals like cows and horses. That's a typical storage shed or tool shed.
depends where you're from, where I'm from it's not uncommon for people refer to a shed as a barn
Thank You for the video! Its nice to "travel" before a busy day. I am watching it in the morning and I start the day happy and relaxed.

That would make a lovely tiny house to live in permanently, especially with the space for growing food and the cellar for storage. The banya not getting finished because your grandpa is no longer here made me a little sad. But he built so many beautiful things.
Agatha has a perfect childhood. ♥️
My grandma has her whole house full of plants 🌱
So does my grandma! I call it "the jungle"
I love the old charm of the place. I always fascinated by the old style Russia furniture.
The cellar would be a root cellar for storing root vegetables, apples and so on 👍
The summer house is so sweet, you could call it a gazebo but summer house would be the old-fashioned expression I‘d use.
In German it would be a Laube, especially with that green vine growing over it and keeping everything cool.

I’ve learned a lot about our cultures and the difference over the past 28 years here and wouldn’t trade it for the world! I’m pretty sure you’ve learned a few things about how the, at the time years ago, about the whole history of then called the Alaska Territory and how everything came about to where we are today!
Glad I came across your video. And please If you and your family find yourselves in Alaska, we’ve got a lot of personal behind the scenes touring my family can show you that most tourists don’t get to see! We’ve our own private plane and cabins for pleasure and cabins for hunting!! Stop by anytime!!!
Cheers from Alaska USA!
Thank you for your kind words and sharing some interesting information about Alaska💛
@@VictoriaTerekhina another interesting fact is that Alaska (the state) was actually bought from Russia☺️ Also, that kiosk is probably called a gazebo, the closest word to describe it I think
@@minime7375 that’s kinda the tricky or sticky part of the whole issue. The Alaskan Natives tell the story one way then there’s always another way and heck in this case let’s throw in a completely different opinion. BUT, I’m not saying your wrong. Just saying there’s been a long standing debate on who actually owned the land to begin with. Very interesting subject to learn about though. Another big issue was the naming of the tallest Mountain in the whole US. Some say Mt. McKinley while the natives call it Mt Denali. Meaning the tall one. If I recall it’s finally been settled to be permanently named as originally named in honor of the Natives and so Mt Denali it is. I’ve called it that since I moved here. President McKinley had really little to nothing to do with the State at the time.
@@Bywater-S I’m not saying Russia has or had any claim to it, just saying what the history books say, the name itself is Russian I believe.
@@minime7375 Revisionist history can be found everywhere that the aboriginal people were overwelmed by colonialism - we have this in New Zealand.
Thank you for sharing your grandads beautiful place.
You were a cute 🥰 baby 😊

Agata is adorable! What a beautiful get away.
Очень милое видео. Прям настальжи разобрало. ❤️❤️❤️
Of your many videos this is one of my favorites. All the best to you, your family (and we who share the planet with you) during these challenging times. Keep your spirits up and keep working (from Uzbekistan). 💞
Yesss! I've seen an Isba interior, at last! I was in Russia 6 times, always with my motorcycle, I drove past countless isbas and always I wondered about their interiior! Thankyou for the tour, your isba is lovely!!! Greetings from Italy
Это не изба приятель, даже близко.
It was done/uoloaded 2 Years ago, I've gone through your videos long ago. Today I see it om my side bar! It's a beautiful house .I'm glad someone is taking care of it. For anyone to stay there right through the winter you'l need muscles. Clear you path which will lead to fetching more wood. You cant really go shopping so you need to have everything.
