Toniez (Тонеж), Belarus (Беларусь) - A Portrait Of A Belarusian Village

This is the village of Toniez, in Belarus. Belarus is located in Eastern Europe and is bordered by Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Russia, and Ukraine.
This village has been around since 1551, but some say it goes back to the 13th century. Things move a little bit slower here… I’ve been getting this SAME WATER, from that SAME WELL since I was 5 years old. It’s pretty much the only way to get fresh drinking water here, and I’ve been doing it since I was 5 years old from this exact well.
Alright, let’s talk about Belarus for a second… the country has a population of about 9.5 million people (9,449,323), with the most populated city being the capital of Minsk. Minsk is actually pretty well known for their high-level IT and gaming industry. It’s a beautiful place to visit and is not over-saturated with tourists just yet. No other Belarusian city has more than 500,000 people in it, and a large percentage of the population lives in smaller towns and villages like this.
Belarus is known for their manufacturing of tractors, Dump trucks, and other heavy metal equipment. Agriculture is very important as well and accounts for nearly 10% of their Gross Domestic Product. The Country usually leads all ex-USSR nations in dairy and meat production per capita. I always remember having the best cheese and milk in Toniez. It was just So fresh. The national symbol of Belarus is the White Stork…
Interestingly enough, there’s almost no outsourcing of labour jobs in Belarus. Everything is in-house (so to speak). The average salary ranges between $250 - $300/month across the country, but in places like Minsk, it jumps up to about $450- $500.
This village has one main store. Produce usually comes a couple of times a week, and there’s definitely plenty of liquor to go around… Funny enough, Belarus is near the top of the list of global alcohol consumption per capita.
Like in a lot of eastern European countries, fishing is extremely popular in Belarus. My family has a tradition that after a long day on the lake, we cook some Uha.
The people in Belarus, and the people in this village are extremely friendly… but this village does have a dark past, and I have to touch on it. In 1943, when the Nazis invaded Belarus, they came to this village. They gathered 268 people in a church right here… saying they would give everyone a new German passport. They actually ended up just burning the church down, killing 267 of the 268 people there, so one woman survived. These were mostly young kids, women, and older people… because everyone else was off fighting in the war. This is a memorial and statues that commemorate all of the lives that were lost on that day.
All-in-All, Belarus is a place you should put on your travel list. You can have a crazy time in a big city like Minsk, but if you want to dig deep into the tradition and culture of the country, visit a village like Toniez. It’ll open up your mind and widen your horizons. It’s a magical place for me, a place of family and friendships. This visit was great. And let’s hope the next one will be even better. I’ll be back soon.
Thanks for watching!

Hi, I am a new subscriber of your vlog. Btw, l like so much your hometown en Belarus as well. Its a very clean country. I plan to visit there in couple of months later. Hope to see you.
Your grand mom in belarus sings Very sweet
The White stSrk is also a symbol of my village in Slavonia (part of modern Croatia). You brought me back to my childhood; only forty years ago we too had colorful walls and tapestries in an old house without an internal toilet, a water well in the yard. I grew up fishing and swimming in the pond, working on the land, forest and meadows, with domestic animals raised for food, domestic fruits and vegetables ....... my family has not lived in this wonderful way for a long time. Save your culture and country, trust me you will miss it if you lose it!
I wish I was there at times. I was born in Belarus, Minsk and my family is from Ivanava. We moved to America between 93-94, I was about 8-10 yrs old. Beautiful people, beautiful land. Miss you all!
Finally, I got depiction about how beautiful Belarus country. I should meet some-special-one there. And those information within are so good. And really, you filmed nice video! Greetings from INA.
Belarus 🇧🇾 beautiful country with nice people i lived there for 14 years, regards from the Republic of Mauritius 🇲🇺 ❤!
Miss my Belarus ❤️❤️ Milovidy
Beautiful village with handsome hunk
Спасибо. Самое Важное это Люди Белоруси! Это самые Добрые, Сердечные Люди. Почти каждое лето приезжал из Подмосковья в Мозырь.
Hi Alex. My mother was from Belarus She grew up in Soltaniski - a village just south of Radun on the border of Lithuania. She moved to Canada
back in 1957 but never returned. I always wanted to visit but never had the opportunity. Watching your video helped me see what it would have
been like in her village from the houses to the well that you drank from and the peacefulness of the countryside. Maybe some day I will visit.
If you ever find yourself traveling in the area of Soltaniski I would love a video of the small village.
Once again, thank you
and all the best to you and your family all the way from Toronto, Ontario, Canada
May her soul RIP
Mohu se zeptat jak se vám podařilo se vystěhovat z SSSR v 50 letech do Kanady?
Thanks Alex! You managed to convey the atmosphere of village life in Belarus. Childhood memories)

Я после многих лет в Германии также особенно ценю редкие визиты в деревню на Полесье, где прошло мое детство, Макаричи. И мне это видео очень их напомнило. Жаль, что этим летом не судьба

Hello from the United States. Belarus should increase tourism so that the world can see the beauty of this country.
Absolutely agree with you! It's a beautiful place!
This people is more happy than Billy gates the master of Micosoft...Be happy good people of Belarus...
спасибо
Привет Саша, у тебя получилось прекрасное видео. Надеюсь мы ещё встретимся
Если что я Даша Юркевич
Спасибо, Алекс, что пропагандируешь нашу Беларусь! Я родом из Букчи. (наверное знаешь, что это соседняя деревня?).. Живу в Минске и всю жизнь тоскую по нашим болотам, лесам, песням...
Hy dear I m from India ??where are you from 😊
First of all loved the narration & also ur village its soo beautiful n it reminds me of my village. Ur granny is so sweet & we shud spend more time at our natives. Thank u for making this video. Lots of love..
Alex, this video is amazing. I just loved the way you narrated. It's very sad to see people leaving countryside and coming to big cities for the sake of jobs and live a lavish life style. Living in countryside have so many benefits fresh milk, meat, cheese, air and also no pollution.
Namaste (Greetings) from India to you and your Grandma, family!!
Yes, we Indians also love potatoes very much. Waiting for your next video. Hope to see you soon in a new video.
Till then, Stay safe!!
Enjoyed this little town and meeting the extended family. Nice work Drrrrrobin Alexander!
Alex, this video is amazing and gives such a colourful insight to other people's lives. As you mentioned it I could not avoid thinking the house styles look mostly unchanged from historical footage I have seen of the Nazi invasion and it makes the images even more frightening and graphical when you see these families in the same setting and you can appreciate the cheerfulness of the village and wonder how there could have been such hatred towards others.
the food of fish looks delicious, love it...
I visited Poland to see relatives. Visiting outside the big city (cities) you get more of real view of what life is like in that particular country and you get to see something that most tourists do not get to see.
Really interesting video. Loved it 👍
Gihan Jayawardena thank you Gihan, appreciate it greatly!

hello

Хорошее видео!
Hi, I'm falling in love with Belorus, thanks because i am learning a lot. I love knowing how to live in a simple way, where people have moral values and where there is respect. I would like to buy a house in some village like this one close to Marina Gorka. Do you have some advice?Дзякуй from Italy
❤️❤️❤️
You speak English very well. When did you learn this language so well?
Great video, touching almost all aspects of a Belarusian village, not to forget the WW2 tragedy. How was it affected by Chernobyl?
Nice one 😊
But the matter is how to get the patato chop and samosa in a very neat and clean way bless me my every dreams come true and I can make the world into heaven
So much tasty patatoes in your belarus

Мы жывем у такіх гарадах, як матчыны платы кампутараў.
Мы жывем у трохмерным свеце віртуальнай рэальнасці.
У нашым штодзённым жыцці гэта падобна на прагляд 3D-фільма.
Хто зрабіў малюнак CG?
Д'яблы стварылі выявы CG, каб пераследваць людзей.
Гэта выява CG, створаная дэманамі, каб пераследваць людзей.
Мы грунтоўна ашуканы д'яблам.
Д'яблы падманваюць добрых людзей, крадуць маёмасць добрых людзей, крадуць дасягненні добрых людзей, знішчаюць дасягненні добрых людзей і забіваюць добрых людзей.
Д'яблы смяюцца з добрых людзей, якія пакутуюць, таму што іх ашукалі дэманы, а чэрці смяюцца з добрых людзей, забітых дэманамі.
Мы жывем у свеце малюнкаў CG. Свет малюнкаў CG - гэта свет хлусні.
Не вер хлусам.
Не верце інфармацыі хлусаў.
Ці сапраўды людзі паміраюць у свеце CG малюнкаў?
Ці сапраўды людзі паміраюць у свеце хлусні?
Людзі вераць, што смерць існуе.
У свеце хлусні чалавечая смерць ствараецца графічнымі малюнкамі, і людзі перакананыя, што яны памруць.
Ідэя смерці - памылка. Няправільна верыць, што ты памрэш.
Незвычайныя лясныя пажары ў Каліфорніі. Лічу, што ўсе пажары - гэта «крымінальныя падпалы» з дыстанцыйным абаграваннем з дапамогай электрамагнітнай зброі. Я лічу, што аўтааварыя - гэта таксама тэракт з выкарыстаннем электрамагнітнай зброі. Я зразумеў, што ў свеце шмат тэрарыстаў. Яны масонства, яны шпіёны, яны тэрарысты, яны жывуць вакол нас, выдаючы сябе за добрых людзей. Калі ласка, не давярайце нікому. Не верце ўсёй інфармацыі. Яны хлусы і маюць моцную злосць і моцныя забойчыя намеры ў адносінах да нас, добрых людзей. Калі ласка, будзьце асцярожныя. Ваш муж ці жонка могуць быць шпіёнамі. Паспрабуйце прачытаць StasiWiki. Spy Wiki, Sleeper Agent Wiki і Honey Trap Wiki дадуць вам добрае ўяўленне аб тым, як працуе шпіён. Бог не існуе. Шпіёны прамываюць вам мазгі, прымушаючы думаць, што ёсць бог. Рэлігія - гэта махлярства, якое робіць выгляд, што неіснуючы Бог існуе. Д'ябал выдае сябе за Бога. Ці ёсць у вас Божыя сілы? Ці можаце вы адрозніць багоў ад дэманаў? Ці можаце вы адрозніць Бога ад д'ябла, нават калі ў вас няма такіх жа здольнасцей, як у Бога? Вы не павінны спадзявацца на Бога. Няправільна табе верыць у Бога, калі ты не ведаеш розніцы паміж Богам і д’яблам. Бог, якому вы моліцеся, - гэта д'ябал. Калі б быў Бог, не было б на свеце ніводнага чалавека, якому было б цяжка. Калі ёсць Бог, усе людзі павінны быць роўнымі. Не павінна быць статусу каралеўскай сям'і, імператарскай сям'і, арыстакратаў, людзей улады або рэлігійных чыноўнікаў, і не павінна існаваць іерархічных адносін паміж людзьмі. Існаванне каралеўскіх сем'яў, імператарскіх сем'яў, уладаў і рэлігійных людзей, а таксама існаванне іерархічных адносін паміж людзьмі з'яўляецца доказам таго, што багоў няма. Каралеўская сям'я, імператарская сям'я, арыстакраты, людзі ўлады і рэлігійныя людзі - шпіёны, і людзі, якія іх падтрымліваюць, таксама шпіёны. Не ведаю, ці ўсе яны шпіёны. Вы павінны быць падазронымі да ўсіх. Ва ўсім свеце ідуць войны, таму што ёсць шмат шпіёнаў, якія любяць вайну. Шпіёны распаўсюджваюць ілжывую інфармацыю па ўсім свеце, каб прымусіць краіны ненавідзець адна адну. Мы не павінны ненавідзець нацыю ў цэлым, не ведаючы нічога пра кожнага асобна. Людзі, якіх мы павінны ненавідзець, - гэта шпіёны вакол нас. твае ворагі побач. Падумайце ў думках: «Калі ты д'ябал, я цябе заб'ю». Затым дэман перад вамі знікае, або вы разумееце, што ён валодаў і кантраляваў вас на працягу доўгага часу. Д'ябал любіць валодаць вамі і кіраваць вамі. Паспрабуйце ўявіць сабе забойства гэтага дэмана ў вашым розуме. Д'ябал табе нічога не можа зрабіць. Калі вы перастаеце думаць, што ўсе добрыя, і думаеце, што яны могуць быць д'яблам, д'ябал нічога не можа вам зрабіць. Перастаньце нікому давяраць. Бог не існуе. Ідэя, што Бог існуе, стварае д'ябла. Думаць, што Бог існуе, гэта тое самае, што стварыць дэмана. Спосаб патушыць д'ябла - не верыць ні ў што.

My son Lakshman doing the
Job in Belarus
Gomel is over 500k too.
My grandma comes from here
It looks medieval!
Are they speaking in Belarusian or Russian?
A mix of Russian and Belarusian. Unfortunately, for a certain reason,our cities are always Russian. And in the villages, it's a mixture. It is called a Trasyanka. You won't find pure Belarusian any more.
This is which village of Belarus, please confirm. Coz I will be visiting Belarus next month.
