  • The Arctic regions of Russia are commonly referred to as the "Far North". It consists of a large part of Russia, located mainly north of the Arctic Circle, which boasts enormous mineral and natural resources.

    Due to the harsh conditions of the area, people who work there have traditionally been entitled by the Russian government to higher wages than workers of other regions. In this video, my main goal is to really understand what it is like to live in such a place, in one of the most remote areas of the largest country in the world - Russia.

    The Far North is known for its extremely harsh climate. That is exactly why anyone who work there, other than indigenous populations who live far from Russian civilisation, receive an extra grade of payment, commonly referred to as the "Northern Bonus" (северные надбавки).
    People in Arctic Russia also often receive additional benefits such as extra vacation, extra disability benefits, extra retirement benefits (a lower retirement age), and housing benefits, in compensation for the difficult working conditions. These compensation schemes began under the Soviet Union and has been maintained by the Russian Federation.
    In my quest to set foot in every single federal subject in Russia, the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug was definitely one of them! Don't forget to follow me on Instagram for live updates @davelegenda 📷

    Which means I'm at 35/85. Still 50 to go! Hopefully a lifetime will be enough ⚠️
    In this video in particular, I stuck to the city limits of Salekhard, the capital of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug. Getting there by land from Moscow was quite a feat, traveling by train through fascinating places such as Kirov, Ukhta, and Vorkuta. Navigate to my previous video to watch my adventure on the northernmost train in the world: • The Northernmost Train...
    Salekhard is located in the Ob river valley and is an important river port of the Russian Far North.
    In my previous video I travelled along the only section of the unfinished Salekhard-Igarka Railway that is still operating nowadays. Originally, the Salekhard-Igarka Railway was set to provide a rail connection between the Ob river port of Salekhard and the Yenisei river port of Igarka.
    Currently, the nearest railway is at Labytnangi, on the opposite side of the river Ob. At these latitudes, there are no bridges on the river: for 9-10 months each year, the river is frozen and cars and trucks can cross via the river ice. In the summer a ferry operates, but in the in-between seasons, when the ice is drifting - generally shortly before the start and shortly after the end of summer, Salekhard is effectively isolated from the outside world. During these periods, only helicopters are able to reach Salekhard in case of emergency.

I think you should avoid statements like: "we are as north as it can possibly get" in this video or "this is as far north as it can get", "Further north is only the north pole" (form Teriberka.) Everyone who looks at the map sees neither of these are true. I know beeing there is emotional but still far from the truth. Just a small detail. I don't like being lied to ;)
