Title: How they do it in the Russian Taiga
Post by: bigdave on January 14, 2015, 10:51:12 AM: I stumbled upon a youtube series called "happy people". It is about Russian trappers and the lives they live in Siberia. There are 4 parts to the series. I thought you all would like them. I sure did.

Can't remember which one for sure, but I've watched it on 1 or the other.

Good stuff.
