Living the Simple Life in Ukrainian Countryside | Staying in a Summerhouse in Winter 

It's good to see you enjoying time with your dad. Please let him and your mom know there are people in America who are thinking about them and praying for their safety. Sending you all love, hope and prayers!

I live in America now. Was born in Poland, and watching these videos reminds me of my childhood. Thank you.

Boy, I miss my Dad when I see this video. You're so lucky to have him and do these types of tasks together. Cherish it. :)

Your father is such a cool guy.

A person who loves animals is a wonderful person. :)

Your Father is a really nice guy, you are blessed with a wonderful family🙂

My prayers, for all of people that are living through the chaotic uncertainty, hurt, and sadness of war.

My heart ❤️ melted a little when your neighbors dog came to greet you 😘

Cherish those moments with your Dad. They never last long enough.

When your dad thanked you for helping him winterize the house and check on everything there, you should acknowledge him and say no problem Dad i enjoyed time with you as well. Your dad is very respectful and seems to be a happy man. He's very kind to give you answers to your questions for your video and make the learning about his childhood and his villiage interesting. Tell him you love him, one day all you'll have is these videos to cherish your time together.

Reminds me of the country in West Virginia. Growing your own vegetables, owning a good size of land, wood or coal stove, keeping the house cooler. It is very peaceful, life is simple and slow and relaxed, the air is fresh. Most people have at least on dog, they alert you if anything strange or strangers are around. Thank you Pavlo and dad for sharing your home, your lives with us. I hope you have happy holidays. I wish you and the family peace and health. 😘

Glory to Ukraina❤..Regards from Serbia

My childhood was the same! Wishing peace for Ukraine 🪺🇺🇦🙏👍🇨🇦🍻🐥

Lovely summer house, bet it gets well warm after that stove has been going for a while, great insight in your family’s life, nice to have somewhere to get away from city life. Your dad so practical at everything in life. You both have a strong bond together.

Great video! We pray for your country and want peace for all!

Thank You for sharing this adventure with us .Peace to You and Luba and your families .

Pavlo and father. Thank you for the tour! Dad and Mom, you Luba and Jack take care and be safe!

Enjoy your videos. Kiev has some beautiful buildings. I wish the best to you guys especially during the Winter. Stay Warm!

Hello Pavlo , Say Hello to dad ! Looks like you and dad enjoyed your time together ! Say Hello to mom also ! I know girlfriend and Jack will be happy when you get back ! I feel like I know you all personally ! Sending much Love and Prayers !

Slav Ukraini! Much love from Louisiana. Watching your dad tend his family home reminds me of my grandmother at her cabin in the woods. She was raised on a farm and taught me all the old ways. His village store reminds me of the gas station my aunt worked at for a time, also in the woods. Similar items and arrangement. Hugs to you and your family, including Jack. 💖🎄

Love & 100% continued support to ALL of you ❤ from Hampshire USA Oblast 🇺🇲💙🇺🇦

Our house in Poland was really cold when we were kids and I have to disagree with your dad haha you can't/don't get used to it .

I think houses with Ukrainian stoves are great.

Seems so far Ukraine has been lucky by snowfall, Southern Germany and Slovenija was blitzed to almost a standstill with up to 2 meters of snowfall in 12 hours plus gale force winds. Heer in the UK limited snowfall and where I am in Aberdeen - zero snowfall as yet. Cheers Pavlo and your Dad and Uncle - stay safe!!

It's cold here as well pavlo ,be careful chaps , daft saying I know ,but Kiev is a target not like the farm regions ,enjoy trip with dad , hope Luba's safe 🙌

Very neat, thanks for sharing your beautiful life. I hope Ukraine can return to peace and all Ukraines can return home.

Your father is lovely...always smiling.

Hej from Denmark 🇩🇰 Thank you to show your country. In Denmark we just have snow. It is about 10 years since we have snow in the hole country. We are dreaming about white Christmas 🎄🎄💙💛🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤❤🎄🎄

16.29 walking down the street, I am thinking of a popular song here in the US--"Chestnuts roasting on an open fire" very fitting song for this weather.

May God Protect you and your Family from Fred in Arizona USA

Nice to spend time with your Dad and to help complete projects before the winter when snow stays and no longer melts. I saw Ukraine had a big snowstorm recently hope everyone stays warm and safe! Ukraine is beautiful both cities and villages very nice place to be proud to call home 💛💙💛💙

Beautiful peaceful place you have in the country…thanks for the tour of the summer house. All the best to all of your family. Happy Holidays from USA.

I love living in the country too. Enjoy your rural life ❤

It's nice to see you, your dad, and uncle. The snow is beautiful. I love your videos.

It's always good to get some time with your Dad. Enjoy that time!

Thanks for the update Pavlo. Hope you guys have some fun at the country house. I no longer have my dad so I know how precious this time spent with him must be for the two of you. God bless and keep your family always safe. Do I see the Kalyna at 16:14??😍Love from Canada.💙💛❤💪🤛Cheers!!!!!

Thank you for the updates Pavlo. Nice and unique house you have in Kiyiv. Your father is an enjoyable man. Nice to see you go out with him.

I love your summer home! I would love to live there all year round!. Simple life is a better life. Stay safe

Summer house looks amazing. Almost my dream home in Ukraine, Just not make from red bricks. ))

For that smell, there's a chemical product, that can be had at DIY construction stores, that dehumidifies the air. That robs the mold of the moisture it needs to grow. _(It's like a coarse salt, that you place in an open bowl. Then just set somewhere in the room. Then when you come back in a week or so, the bowl is full of water, and no granules are left.)_ Doing so will help prevent all the mold and water damage, that happens in an empty house. _(And, it will usually take 48 hours to get such a brick house fully warmed up... they are slow to warm up, and slow to cool down.)_ Yes, you get use to the cold. Think about the medieval monks who lived in buildings without a pitch, and nothing but a curtain over their window. Just while you can get use to the cold, your house _(especially furniture)_ can't. I'm glad you got the dacha in shape. *_If_* this year the orcs do their damage again, you'll be better prepared. If the power goes out, I'd rather live in the dacha, than in some high-rise apartment complex. The piches that you have, a couple of oil lanterns, food stored up, and I'd weather out the winter, like a bug in a rug.

Your village is a great and beautiful place to relax

I have the exact same ladder except it has orange feet, one of the best designed useful products I've ever bought!

What a great little house 🏠 ❤ , its great to see you hanging out with family , your dad is always smiling 😁

I laughed when you said the people had to go a couple of kilometer to the subway. We don't have subway trains where I live. But, we have Subway sandwiches. I thought they were going for food.

@Pavlo from Ukraine. I hold a profound admiration for Pavlos' father, as he epitomizes the quintessence of fatherhood: a paragon of maturity, wisdom, responsibility, and a repository of invaluable life experiences. Я глибоко захоплююся батьком Павлоса, оскільки він уособлює квінтесенцію батьківства: взірець зрілості, мудрості, відповідальності та сховище безцінного життєвого досвіду.

I wish y'all would make more videos. Maybe just about your every day life. Watching your videos is a way for me to travel and feel like I'm with my overseas friends. Even if the videos are y'all walking around and going to the store. I enjoy them and hope you'll make more often.

Bello vederti parlare con tuo padre.Sono momenti migliori che non si dimenticano!un saluto a voi!🙋🏻‍♀️👍

good to see you both father and son.

I was wondering if you and Luba and your parents have jobs ? Todays video is different that most others. Kyiv is very modern, cars, buildings, traffic. You dad has a modern nice car and this summer house is not bad. When I watch your videos I realize how great life is for me in America. I enjoy seeing how life is in your country and hope you all stay well...

It was good to see you and your father spending time together. Always enjoy seeing the country side and cities of Ukraine. Peace for all and good health. Hope you and family stay safe.

those big wall/stoves are pretty interesting. I love the trips around Ukraine it looks like anywhere USA. The more you show it the more I want to visit, it looks really nice. 💛💙💛💙

I wish I could sit down with you and your dad and talk. I’m sure we’d have so much in common. Slava Ukraine!

The snow always makes any place look beautiful. We've just had our first snow here in the UK. Great video. All the best 🇬🇧.

Pavlo you have your Dad’s smile ❤️🇨🇦❤️

Hey Pavlo. Good to see you managed to avoid conscription squads. I have seen many videos of Ukrainian men being forcibly dragged off the streets and put into vans by enlistment goons. Some even beaten up if they don't go willingly. You would be wise to stay in countryside farm where you are safe from them. Also I suggest you avoid going in public places or using public transport. Good luck. Cheers from Canada.

I absolutely love your videos! Especially, life in the country videos. They are my favorite 😍. Keep warm and safe. Big hello to your parents.

That was a wonderful video; spending time with your dad and all....Such a beautiful village,house,etc....loved the SNOW!!! Hello to everyone. Stay well and safe. GOD bless

I love seeing how other families live, your house looks pretty cozy even tho it’s cold outside. I lived in the Philippines and it’s just hot all day and AC is expensive… I love simple houses and easy living. Thank you for sharing the life in your neighborhood.

Thanks Pavlo and dad for letting us spend a few days with you.❤

I hope all will soon be well in your country, thank you for your great videos , so beautiful .

this makes me think of time spent with my dad, just helping him with projects around the house. both as a kid and now as an adult. слава україні! 💙💛

Thank you for sharing. I’m enjoying learning about where my great grandparents came from. ❤

thanks What a snow day.

Great video Pavlo! The snow looked very pretty. It's always nice to see you with your family, So lovely 💙💛

every home needs a good storage shed- yours is big! I can only dream!

I’m glad to see you’re doing well

I hope you have a warm winter this year my friend!

Snow always makes everything look better.

Thank you Pavlo, really enjoyed this video. Reminds me of northern Ontario

Merry Christmas season to you, Luba and your entire family💙💛

Currently in the kitchen of my tenement flat in Glasgow it is 11.7C 😂 and thats after ive been cooking! Your dad is right, you do get used to the cold! Your footage of Kyiv at the beginning was wonderful. I really hope to visit one day. I also hope to visit Mykolaiv, as my city has just been twinned with it! Stay safe Pavlo and family ❤

Thank you or this video. I really enjoyed it, and I wish I lived in your village. I would like it very much. Also I really like your father.

Watching from Scotland , we have had some -5,s here , living in an older property in winter is never easy ..i do .. winter it wont last forever. Stay safe .

Thinking of you two Pavlo❤️

Thank you very much. it looks very beautiful... and Ukraine is beautiful country - by its nature, not by soviet buildings of course. But remember, war is near ....

It's crazy how "normal" it looks like. You wouldn't think there is war.

Hi Pavlo, I'm surprised not to see any Coca-Cola signs, I've never seen a shop here in Africa that doesn't have one, even if its crudely painted by the shop owner.

Nice time with your dad. Hope you all keep safe. Love from the UK.

Your dad seems like a good guy! Thanks for the video:)

I love the way your parents painted their Dasha all white. It makes it look clean and brightens it up.

Good adventure making memories together. Thank you for showing the country living. Good thing your Dad was upgrading the cooking the pizza is probably a better crack filler. hehe😁. God bless your inspirations.God bless you and yours.🙏🙏❤️‍🔥

Always great to see your father, he's a great guy. Funny. Would be interesting to hear more of his early life growing up "Soviet". Thanks for taking us along!

Hvala za ovako prelep video snimak !

Stay safe and warm , much love to all of you!❤️🙏

Stay safe!!! We're The same, my brothers!

Hi Pavlo, many thanks for sharing with us. Reminds me to my own childhood. Lovely greetings to Luba, your mum and Jack. CU

It looks a fabulous place.

I am glad you feel good and healthy with your dad. We get our first snow here in Montréal, Canada. Hello to Luba. Praying for peace. Take care. ❤

Very enjoyable video, your dad is great.

Love your videos. I was in Ukraine last year and loved it. I hope you both wear seat belts in the car especially with all the potholes on the country roads.

All looks so peacefull and normal 😊❤

Ukraine, you and Luba, and your families are always in our prayers.

I know a friend, McIntyre his mother's family was from Odessa, Ukraine 🇺🇦 1850s german-ukrainian

Wishing you and your family safety and warmth during those hard and stressfull times,our thoughts are with you.

It is really interesting to hear your father's perspective on the village and the past times.

Keep strong over there!

I'm amazed how many of your products are also labeled in english.

Near the age of your parents, I so appreciate you including them as you do ~

Always good to see you Pavlo. Great to see you spending time with your dad although, of course, we do miss the girls Luba and your mum too. Take care all of you. Love and respect from the UK.

Thank you.
