    I love seeing how people live in other countries and in different eras. I live in the US and was born in 1970. This looked very much like my grandparents' apartment when i was young. The decor is dated, probably from 1950s through the 70s. When you look at it through the lens of 2024, of course it looks shabby. But I can see how, back in its day, it was considered quite fashionable. I loved the chandelier! ❤ Thanks so much for this glimpse into another time and place! 😊

    Честно говоря, если положить в ванной плитку на пол, поменять унитаз и немножко облагородить мелким косметическим ремонтом-покрасить белой краской окно, батарею,и трубу рядом с унитазом-ванна будет выглядеть лучше многих современных санузлов.

    If this was only left 25 years ago, it means it was already 1999, not a soviet era at all. Also, these washing machines were from the 80's in soviet countries, so it means people in russia were still using technology of the bygone era and even thinking the person who had it was well off. Which shows how poor people were (and still are) in russia.Also, if you look carefully, there's a modern blood pressure device that is lying around on the side table. I do not believe one second that this is an apartment that isn't lived in. I think people still live in such conditions in Russia, which is appalling.

    • @Soviet-Born

      You watched my video very attentively, and I really appreciate it. It’s true that no one had lived in this apartment for many years. The owner went to stay with his children due to health issues, and unfortunately, he passed away not long ago. The apartment no longer exists as it was. His daughter put it up for sale, and everything in it was just thrown away. I feel very sorry about it.

    Growing up in America in the 60s and 70s, the Soviet Union was a closed off and mysterious place. We were always afraid of it, and the Soviets were villains in our spy movies back then. It is astonishing to see such a dark, cramped, dated apartment for someone supposedly well off. Compare the typical Russian apartment with the typical western Europe or American apartment and they are two different worlds. This apartment is a glimpse of history, of course, but there are so many Russian channels with so many tours of the typical Russian apartment that we can really get a sense That the Russian people have been living with old, dated household items and furniture.

    The only way to really compare is in the uk rental prices including electricity water start from approximately 60% of someone's take home pay of a the average worker. Some 2 bedroom flats are over 80% of the average earners take home pay and that's not including electric or gas just water. My daughter and her partner earn approximately £3,200 between them yet their small one bedroom flat costs £1,050 a month then £90 a month gas £70 electricity £173 a council tax £17 a month maintenance.And they say that'scheaper than some they viewed.

    • @Soviet-Born
      @Soviet-Born  3 місяці тому +15

      This all greatly depends on the location, in villages this happens regularly. In the city, of course not, due to high real estate prices. No one lived in this apartment because its owner moved to another city and was emotionally connected to his apartment, which is why he didn't want to rent it out. Just recently, he passed away. The relatives have already removed most of the belongings, and it is likely that they will soon start renting the apartment to students.
      So I think we were very lucky to capture it exactly as it was, a small imprint of an important part of one person's life and a whole historical era.

    Russian women often wore fur
    Good furs provided warmth back then,it must be real - the one hanging
    Buying a faux fur back then seems odd to me

    If this was affluence, I wonder what was considered standard or substandard? This is truly depressing..

      That's correct, but the apartment was being watched, sometimes they stayed in it for several days. You might have noticed some modern food labels, but overall, it was untouched.

    Either speak English, или говорите по-Русский and add English subtitles; that simultaneous translation, of two confounding and rivaling sound tracks at once, is unlistenable.

      What exactly? Provide families with decent apartments to live in for free? This apartment has been abandoned for 25 years, and yet it retains a more dignified appearance than many suburban apartments in the big cities of the so-called Western world. Maybe you should take a nice bath of humility and put your washed brain out to dry

      Well it seems like that in the soviet era people were all well housed, we need more housing in the UK, having your own place in UK is now unattainable for many, and there is no system to build low cooost governement housing

      This was a WEALTHY 4-people family home. The normal Soviet people lived in "kommunalka" which means that in every room there lives a family and the bathroom and kitchen are shared. So in this apartment there would have usually been two normal families. So -say 8 or 9 people sharing one toilet. @@GallopingHorse1
