It is great to see what Russia is like from the perspective of an actual Russian who speaks the language fluently and native to the culture vs. foreign vloggers who go around Russia. A completely different vibe yet holistic one.

I live in a city in Northern Canada which has brutally cold winters - the lowest recorded temperature is -53.3 oC and I have myself experienced -45oC - and can tell those who have never experienced it that you can become accustomed to such temperatures, though precautions must be taken when it hits the -40 range. We dont use 'Natasha's' here in Northern Canada, rather people generally leave their cars in heated garages or, if they are forced to leave their vehicle outside, have their engines plugged into an electrical outlet via a long cord leading to your house to keep their engines warm ... though it does not always work.

​@@ergenekon4l the peoples living in Asia have a lot in common, for example. During archaeological excavations on the territory of modern Yakutia, burials were discovered dating back to the 17th century, even before the arrival of the Russians, where not only jewelry made of precious metals by Yakut craftsmen was found, but also beads made of Venetian glass and Chinese silk. etc. And so Koreans have been living in Yakutia since the 18th century; for example, you can often meet a Yakut named Aisen Park, Alexey Moon etc. Many have not only Korean, but also Chinese and Japanese ancestors

I could tell that you were at -40 due to the squeaking sound when you walk. The coldest I've ever experienced was -66.7F(-55C) At that temperature the electronic thermometer died. I worked about 120 miles east of Fairbanks. The Yakutsk groceries were less expensive compared to Alaska. We did not blanket our vehicles, we used electric outlets to power engine block heaters. Driving from Fairbanks for hours would lead to frozen groceries even if the heat was on full in an F-250 truck. We were told several myths about how cars were warmed in Russia, thank you for these cold region videos. Final thought - I've seen an outhouse in Alaska on the spring day when all the yellow snow and ice melted. It was not a pleasant sight or smell.

Якутск с Канадой в 1990-2000 годах очень тесно сотрудничал. Обменивались опытом жизни в таких суровых условиях. Канадские строители приезжали и строили так называемые «Канадские дома из дерева». Эти дома до сих пор стоят и хорошо выглядят. Так же наши строители с вашими специалистами из Канадцы строили наш национальный центр медицины (огромное здание), так же один из корпусов университета СВФУ. Эти здания тоже до сих пор функционируют и простоят еще 50 лет не менее. Так же между университетами Канады и Аляски активно происходил обмен преподавателями и студентами 👍🏼

So fascinating! Thank you, Ivan! And I like your white eyebrows!

The prices are very reasonable. A fraction of the cost, of items in the US. The weather is ideal for me actually. I would love to visit this region.

I live in Louisiana USA where the temperature has only got below -10 degrees Celsius maybe twice in my 40 years. I have only seen snow covering the ground 3 times in that span as well. Snow is a rare event that only happens here every few years and the longest I've ever seen in stay was 4 days and it was less than 10 centimeters deep. All that is to say that Yakutsk might as well be Mars to me.

Thank you, great video, I hope I can visit one day 😊

That was brilliant! Thank you. The city seemed pretty vibrant considering the extreme temperatures. I hope all those ‘new build’ apartments have mitigated for climate change and the ongoing diminishing perma frost. It’s a shame the wooden structures couldn’t be stabilised and slightly modernised though. How old are they? Love that museum also, those ice tusks were amazing.
