Typical Ukrainian Apartment Tour | how people live in Ukraine 2021
Hi guys! In this video, I wanna show you my family's apartment in Kyiv, it is a 2 bedroom flat in a 5th-floor building that was constructed in 1960th and called "Stalinka". We did renovation 20 years ago, but it still looks pretty good. I hope you enjoy this video. Please like and subscribe.

People around the world are praying for your safety during these troubled times. Please keep us updated safety when able. Peace.
It is very cool to meet you guys and to learn about your culture. I'm thankful for good people like you to share this with us here in USA . We are very similar you and us. We should become more friendly to each other. I believe our governments are the real problem in the world not our people!

Ordinary men are part of the problem, not just dictators, there are bad people almost everywhere in the world.
So beautiful to see your mum preserving fruit and vegetables, it looks like our little house here in the UK. We always make our own bread and our kitchen is full of jars. Thank you for video.

I love all the knick-knacks on the window sills and cabinets! Your apartment is very nice! I hope you guys are safe!
Thanks for sharing, I live in the midwestern US, and I had friends who I went to college who were Russian/Ukranian. My Ukranian friends came from rural areas- we had a lot in common, I grew up around farming/rural life. Watching videos like this pretty much affirms that we all live under the same sun/moon and our lives are very similar. This reminds me of our first apartment together when my wife and I were newlyweds- it was tiny, we had cheap appliances, plaster falling off the walls, and only one window air conditioner for the whole one bedroom apartment. We were two broke college kids, but we have some of our best memories from those days 25 years ago:-)

Mentioning Ukraine like it is synonymous with or a part of Russia would be like calling a Republican a Democrat in the US. The Ukraine is its own distinct country with its own distinct culture, history and values. Breaking free of the Soviet regime and fighting for its independence from Russia just to be discussed like being Russia's offshoot well with the people. Russians are Russians and Ukrainians are Ukrainians. The Ukrainian people deserve that respect.

Love the videos. It definitely gives you a different perspective on the way other people live. I would love to visit these places some day.
Thanks for the tour of the apartment. When I saw all of those jars of pickled tomatoes and fruits, it immediately reminded me of my Aunt Betty. She made the best homemade pickles that I've ever had, and she kept them on shelves on the back porch of her home. I thought that it was very interesting that the bath and the sink are in a separate room from the toilet, which actually is a great idea! And may I say that your wife is lovely, you're a very lucky guy.
