Peter you are such an epic soul! Please go to Iceland! Please! This will be another amazing series if you go there:) land of fire and ice. You will be blown away! Especially winter visit. Perfect timing for the upcoming 6 months✨ much love to you and your family and to all. Thank you for what you do. I have severe chronic illness and long term chemotherapy patient. I used to travel the world, the outdoors is where I feel my soul so connected and I can. No longer do like I did. I get to watch you and I shed tears because I feel like I am there experiencing so thank you really. This is so precious, such a gift what you do🙏🏼
Sorry Peter but somebody with your picture in the comments sent me "Congratulations 🎉 Dm you won 🔝🔝🔝" and an invite to Telegram, is that scam? Please check it!
Oh man, I enjoy so much listening to this kind of "tribe stories" regarding beings, creatures ghosts etc.. Pleasantly surprised with this little bonus.. This channel is like a breath of fresh air to me. Love from Poland
I lived on the Big Island of Hawaii for several years. The native Hawaiians also have stories of little people who are fast, smart and very strong. They are called Menehune and live in the lava caves. A native told me a story about when he was sleeping in his SUV while fishing at the sea cliffs the Menehune surrounded and moved his vehicle during the night, as if it was in their way. He only woke up when they put it down and he saw the dark little men scurry off. I love these stories. Glad you got to hang out with the Yupik.
I'm Alaskan and I am currently taking an Alaska Native cultures class for college. We are learning about this area right now and this video gives me the opportunity to see what I'm learning about in reality! Thank you!
Hairy man and little people are realities for many natives in Alaska, Qu'yana Peter for visiting and letting the people speak truth about their area and culture.
I watch lots of National Geography and Discovery Channel documentaries about Native American culture. Their works doesn't come even close to yours. Keep up awesome work
This is so beautiful...simplistic, but magical. I love their tribal language and traditional ways. There is so much cultural history in the US. Thank you for bringing it to us.
I absolutely love this series. The raw beauty, people and their cultures are fascinating! One thing I appreciate seeing in almost every culture is a sense of humor.
The small people the lady talked about is called “duwende” in our small village back home in Southern Philippines. That’s why our parents don’t want us to play hide and sick when it’s getting dark because they believe those “small people” will try to get us lost and never come home! Her story gave me goosebumps! We are all brothers and sisters indeed!
Amazing content. Hearing the story about the little people gave me goosebumps, where I come from, in Peru; there's also similar stories about the little people and how NOT to never bother them. Some people that live in secluded areas, where their presence is known, even pay their respects to them, by leaving them food outside their house. It is said that if you leave offerings for them, they in turn will protect you (i.e. chase off predators or intruders). But what was most chilling to hear, its the story we heard about them wanting to take the little kid away. In my country, it is also popular knowledge that they are especially keen on taking little kids away ( never again to be seen) for some reason. Anyway, crazy to see how all of these "crazy stories" have an almost identical narrative, yet these peoples are so far away from each other and yet they speak of the same, down to the detail. Makes you wonder indeed... Anyway, thanks Peter for being such a humble and respectful emissary of these people's legacy and allowing us to have a glimpse into this harmonic way of living in tune with nature. Much love.
I know, when they would tell me growing up I thought it was just to scare me, and when we got internet I looked into it and wondered why are all so similar? Even Giant men similar storys freaked me out.
Here in Chile i've heard similar stories about these creatures, usually from my grandfathers and older relatives. They used to see these kind of little people when they where working the fields or in mining areas, and said that they usually took little thing that raised their attention, like kids shoes or tools.
He can't do any worse than the leadership that we have now.. . Dem entia Joe inherited a 1.36 inflation rate and a great economy and now we have skyrocketing bidenflation and high priced gas because of Dem entia Joe's incompetence.
It just brings tears to my eyes at how respectful you are to the locals. Thank you for treating them as people & sharing their life. It's difficult when nonlocals come & disrespect us as people & disrespect our life. I appreciate you.
Yes, Natives rule the island but the MONEY come from Washington DC. #govermentsubsidy. It’s always interesting how people quickly t politicize everything. Freedom is not antigovernment people. Wake up
How amazing is this video 👏🏻 I am laying down in my bedroom in small space somewhere in north Saudi Arabia (plz no politics here) and my eyes catching this beauty 😊 Thanks for those who made use of techs to deliver suck knowledge. Many thanks go to Peter and his subscribers 👏🏻
I am an American Texan watching this video from Dubai, not too too far from you. I had the pleasure to visit Riyadh. The Gulf states have some beautiful areas as well and many Bedouin tribes. I was raised and prefer the secluded small communities over large cities any day.
What also caught my ear was the stories Adora told about the little men. There are similar stories told by other peoples living in cold climates e.g. the Ainu tell stories about the Korpokkur (lit. meaning "people living under the butterbur plant"). Then again, virtually every culture on the planet has tales and legends about dwarf-like beings so.. I guess the Yupik just encountered very scary ones.
My uncles always told me the storys at camp about how the little people are mischievous, strong, fast, and not to be messed with, also don't take anything from them unless you have fair trade even if your life depends on it out there, you'll never be found or will find your way home.
@@one_up907 Thanks so much for your insight, Sonny! You're a great dude. Thank you for showing Peter and us around the island and explaining everything! I wonder, have you ever heard stories about a time when the little people were benevolent and happy to trade with everyone or were they always mischievous and dangerous?
@@WaaDoku yes I was told there was a time when we worked together, and they said the world is changing and new people are coming they have to hide, thats what I was told anyway, I also heard they hid cause people are too greedy and violent when they don't get what they want, I've heard different storys.
The woman from the tribe said something very interesting, that they go away when you cast them in Jesus' name. I wasn't always a Christian but I remember hearing about similar stories in Mexico and overtime I realized places around the world would have very similar experiences with these "little men" or whatever they are. There was a time when I saw some very interesting stuff, not little men, but things that scared the living hell out of me for weeks. I heard that casting them away in Jesus' name works so I did, and since then I converted (among other reasons that came about). other Christian communities outside of the West will talk about how they confront these things and they will almost never see them again because of their faith. So, would these things be demonic? Maybe spirits masquerading as something else? And why do they all seem to react badly to the name of Jesus?
He is one of the most gracious hosts I have ever witnessed. No matter where he is, he is never judgemental, just reporting. May God bless this man and his family.
What a raw unmolested place with such warm people. You are one of the few people that have experienced it first hand and we really appreciate you sharing it with us. Can't wait to see what's next.
Awesome ! The part about the little men gave me chills because there are a lot of stories like that around the globe and they all seem identical. Even worse, the lady seemed really authentic when talking about that story.
Another amazing video from a world that is not always seen by people from the outside. There are so many of our people that live away from our native homelands but it’s videos like this that help keep them connected to our cultures, people, memories. I guarantee your videos from Savoonga have lit a fire in everybody connected to this area. Thanks again for the respect you show, can’t wait for the next video.
I jumped on that immediately when I saw the upload. These stories and lessons are so incredibly valuable and insightful. It's a shame to hear about their language declining on the island. Probably due to social media? I really hope they can make use of it to actually spread and strengthen their language like other native communities around the world. And someone needs to write down how to say thank you in Siberian Yupik. I definitely want to learn that.
The white men took every kid over 5 away from the family and beat the h*ll out of them for speaking their language. For example a pin would be placed in there tongue and they would not be allowed to pull it out for hours forcing their tongue to be stuck out their mouth for hours
I'm incredibly grateful for your videos❣️ your bedside manner is impeccable to say the least. Please give our thanks to the natives that opened their lives, and shared their stories so that we could have a better understanding and respect for their culture and way of life. Absolutely beautiful 😍
There is just one way to receive this intimate of a transmission of ancestral wisdom: in great humility. You, Peter, have a manner that allows people to trust you and include you.
Peter should do an episode on some of the stories natives have about spirits and such. Hearing the story about the small people legitimately freaked me out and brought up some memories. I've been told that only some families experience things like that. Mine is one of them. Unfortunately it's not something a lot of people talk about, so people don't know how to deal with those experiences. My grandma told me the same thing the older lady did. Some other native people I've talked to seem to also have stories about odd things they've seen. It's not a topic that I bring up often. Welp, now imma be awake for awhile...
@@GFINHK Well. Me and my mom both seen little grey people. I seen one at night in my bed right next to me with black eyes, and when I jolted up it was gone. Then when I managed to fall back asleep, literally at the moment I was drifting off, my plant on my 6' tall dresser fell on my bed by my feet. It scared the crap outta me and I yelled so loud my dad ran to me room to see what the heck happened. My mother seen small grey people when I was young, but I never really asked her much about them, I just know she seen them running around. She had the house blessed after that. Mine and her experiences happened at two different places. But I remember hearing footsteps at a duplex I used to live at in the living room. One time my mom thought I left the water faucet on in the bathroom at night, which I clearly didn't because I refused to leave the room every night. So that's the freaky stuff regarding small people I know of with my mom and myself. Other relatives seen ghosts. At my aunt's there is a woman in white that likes my second cousin. He's woken up to her staring at him, and his girlfriend has seen her too (they used to live there with her). His mother, my cousin, used to feel like she was being choked when she slept sometimes, when she lived there long ago. And they seen someone running down the hallway, in front of the TV in the living room, and out the sliding glass door while watching football. This was my uncle, my aunt's ex boyfriend, and my cousin who all witnessed it. My other cousin's boyfriend talked to a little girl in white there too. He thought it was of the kids in the family (we had a family gathering) when he was outside in the backyard smoking a cigar. Their Roomba also randomly starts cleaning in the middle of the night, and they checked the app to make sure it wasn't set right. (That one is freaky but is also funny). My second cousin and myself (similar age) used to sleep over at my aunt's in her back room. And it was always scary. I always wanted to close the hallway door. We literally slept in a room of porcelain dolls. Not even joking. But while the dolls were "creepy" we both felt that they went the problem. So when my second cousin told me about the white lady, it kind of made sense. They said she wears a white dress and it looks really old fashioned. Lives over in Sacramento (Peter is from sac if I'm not mistaken) by Laguna and consumes river Dr. I don't know if there was anything old around there back in the day. That's pretty much the ones I know of that I remember. I know other members have seen things, but like I said, it's hard to find the right time to talk about it. Needless to say, some people are ok with it, some aren't. My cousin who sees the white lady, is totally fine with it. And he's a really nice, good person. Myself, who is a decent person I hope, I hate seeing that stuff. I get really bothered when people talk about it because I had nobody to talk to about it. And nobody really wants to tell a kid "oh yeah I've seen that stuff too" because the implications in our society or in general could be really bad. I actually had to stop the video when I heard them talking about the little people, and continue watching it after I was ready.
youre standing on volcanic ash in the middle of the ocean on an island with natives walking into a glacier and talking and learning their language. What a fever dream of a life
Hey Peter, I have been following your videos for quite some time now. I really love your natural contents. These are not over edited, no extra exotic music. Just simple natural conversation and cinematography. Feels so natural and realistic. Keep on making contents like this. Love from Bangladesh.
I love to hear their native language. So beautiful they continue to speak it and pass it along to the youngsters. Wish my ancestors would've continued to speak our native language after being brought to America. So cool to see how these awesome people live in their beautiful land
This is positive and good to know. At least there is some places left in the world that indigenous people can still live how they want to. Thank you so much for your work Peter , I love your channel and style of presenting. You make my UA-cam subscription worth every penny. Big love and respect from Northern England.
Thank you Peter for bringing us a little closer to understanding native life and the magic in it. I think many of us still have some native in us and are desperately trying to find our way back. Your great work is much appreciated.
Hey Peter, I just want to tell you how much I enjoy you and this channel. I’ve seen so many of these kind of channels and it makes me sick how they act with these kind of indigenous people (even in Nepal, China, other countries) and they are so ignorant… they say really stupid things and act like they have no brains or respect. It’s disheartening how they’ll say or do anything for the video, even if it’s condescending, they don’t seem to care how incredibly stupid and disrespectful they are. I hate it! But you don’t act like one of those “travel for the gram back-packers” or a fake documentary person who just basically invades someone’s land, tribe, family. You’re so very grateful to be with the people you visit for the entire experience of it and it shows. You’re often very soft spoken and in obvious awe of where you are and who you’re with. Very respectful and kind. Man you just don’t see that too much these days. So many people just barge into other peoples lifestyles with not much consideration of their impact. Thankyou so much for the videos you’re making and for the incredible kindness and gratitude you display. I just love your channel and honestly I think someone, should be paying you a lot of money to bring us these most beautiful videos. I feel like maybe you don’t get to hear this too often and I really felt like I wanted to say it. You have an old spirit, a kind soul. It’s refreshing to see that. I’m in awe of the content you bring, I feel like I’m learning so much about things that no classroom ever taught me. I’m 62 and maybe your biggest fan. 👍✌️🇺🇸 😍Delaware
The landscape is so stark and almost brutal and then gentle. Just amazing contrasts. The ice crevasse was something magical. I actually gasped. The glowing color of it and it seemed to emanate a strange and amazing power. Have never seen something like that. Hollywood does not seem to capture that in films, etc. Thanks so much for this video. The people are very interesting and lovely. The men kept trying to spoof you and seemed to enjoy doing it so much. Spiritual and Powerful, yes,.
Thank you so much for this tour of Savoonga and the surrounding areas. One of my favorite TV shows of all time is The Last Alaskans, and one of the people featured, Edna Korth, who now lives with her husband in ANWR, is from Savoonga. She talks about it with so much love, and I always wanted to see what it was like.
This was so amazing. I loved the story that the elder told of the little people. It was scary yet fascinating. You've brought Alaska to me in a way I never would've imagined!
@@500dollarjapanesetoaster8 I didn't know what to make of the yeti story cause it kinda sounded like they were pulling his leg lolol. But the story the elder told sounded serious. She even gave a detailed description of what they looked like.
I just recently found your channel and I just need to say this is so soul moving, I really appreciate your respect for culture and hungry for knowledge.
You narrated a beautiful story. The way you engage the natives gives me a great insight to America. Showing the natural habitat, questions asked and incredible response from your friends. Thank you for sharing your adventures. 💕
I’m so happy to have watched another part to your travels there & the shared stories were of great interest. Here in my Cree ancestry we too share those same stories of the “little people” which have been passed down from every generation. Thank you for this wonderful shared day sir 🙂👋🇨🇦
I like your videos so much. You travel and shoot in really interesting places and i like your style and how you respect the people you meet. If you ever want to come to Finland , I would like to introduce my home country to you!!
I’m loving this series, thanks so much. Another world. I am jealous of you Peter, such a wonderful interesting life you lead, learning and then sharing it with all of us. 👍🏻👍🏻
Super, Spectacular, Wow great island with real down to earth people that showed you a fantastic time! Thanks to Peter and the Siberian Yupik people for a cool video.
Hello Peter, thank you for your tour of that far away land island and its beautiful people. Much respect for them and their lifestyles and for their appreciation and respect of animals that sustain them and their families.
I worked 27yrs putting in 15hr days and been married for 27yrs with my wife and I taking only one vacation out of state all these years. We are blessed to travel with Peter through UA-cam on our TV and getting to see the beauty of this 🌎 world. So now we paid our house and land off and plan now to finally take a vacation. Im 47 and excited just to start our travel through my home state of Michigan first. And if lucky? Maybe Peter will be filming 😁
Me too! But unfortunately I think the majority of UA-cam enjoyers prefer short content (hence UA-cam shorts) and they tend to recommend videos that are under 30 minutes :/
It's crazy to me how quiet life must be in villages like this. Personally I enjoy a little noise in my daily life but I can definitely appreciate this lifestyle. When you're not aware of the issues outside of your area you live in bliss
So beautiful…don’t see any one trying to be more than they are …just humans getting along and surviving with one another…no pretenses no hierarchy…true respect and love of the land ….thank you for sharing
I'm so grateful for the honor to view and share of moments of living , in the now,, by my fellow Americans! Wish I could visit and experience the life and environment! They will always be in my prayers! Fabulous video.
This is one of the channels that I have no regrets for having hit that subscribe button. I love people,and I love to know more and learn more from people around the world. Thanks bro for this revealing
How wonderful! How beautiful! Thank you Peter for landing on this St lawerence Island! These people are peaceful and even playful! Wish I could have seen those Reindeer!❤️😀🇺🇸🌏
Mesmerising episode & learning about their culture, heritage & hearing their stories is absolutely fascinating. The landscape is so beautiful but unforgivingly raw even in the summer & that rainbow was just Magical ! Eagerly awaiting the next upload.
The difference between this and something like Life Below Zero is the realness of the life there. I love hearing the stories. I am so interested in learning about the logistics of living there. How are the homes built, how they get water etc. Excellent video. I also enjoyed the last video as well. These Alaskan videos are so well done and interesting. I could watch an entire series of remote living.
@8:37 that looks identical to El Nevado de Toluca, it's a Volcanoe in Mexico when you reach the top that's how it looks, very nice bro amazing island you visited
Your channel is one of the best. I love the format and the locations. UA-cam recommended your channel to me, and I am so glad that I checked it out. I really enjoy it. Keep on keeping on.
It was such a pleasure to talk with you Peter. I hope you gained some insight on your Native series. Like I said if you need anything from me on any of the series coming up you have my info. 1Luv and God bless my brotha
I grew up in Southwestern Alaska and the Southwest Yupik culture is the same. "Yupik" actually means the "real people" because in the culture there are many kinds of people, little people and the people from other realms that we cannot see. Just like there are many different names for snow.
Another great vlog about such beautiful people. Such a beautiful part of this planet earth. Hopefully, I'll have a chance to visit that gorgeous place in the very near future. Thanks, Peter, for sharing this wonderful clip, beautiful place, and beautiful Yupik people. Respect 🙏
👋Thanks for watching!

And that’s why you don’t cut your finger nails in the house. Shout out to the Oamilda Family in EWA Beach.
I think all Native tribes have the little people. In my tribe in Arizona, we have them here.
I'm Alaskan and I am currently taking an Alaska Native cultures class for college. We are learning about this area right now and this video gives me the opportunity to see what I'm learning about in reality! Thank you!

Always so respectful and friendly.

The villagers had the best time pulling your leg, and you were a good sport, and the power you felt, that was freedom.

There is just one way to receive this intimate of a transmission of ancestral wisdom: in great humility. You, Peter, have a manner that allows people to trust you and include you.
This has been one of my favorites so far. The people are wonderful and love their sense of humor.
Peter should do an episode on some of the stories natives have about spirits and such. Hearing the story about the small people legitimately freaked me out and brought up some memories. I've been told that only some families experience things like that. Mine is one of them. Unfortunately it's not something a lot of people talk about, so people don't know how to deal with those experiences. My grandma told me the same thing the older lady did. Some other native people I've talked to seem to also have stories about odd things they've seen. It's not a topic that I bring up often. Welp, now imma be awake for awhile...
Please tell us more! I'm intrigued.
Just demons
That's why booze is illegal. Too many small people sightings.
@@GFINHK Well. Me and my mom both seen little grey people. I seen one at night in my bed right next to me with black eyes, and when I jolted up it was gone. Then when I managed to fall back asleep, literally at the moment I was drifting off, my plant on my 6' tall dresser fell on my bed by my feet. It scared the crap outta me and I yelled so loud my dad ran to me room to see what the heck happened.
My mother seen small grey people when I was young, but I never really asked her much about them, I just know she seen them running around. She had the house blessed after that. Mine and her experiences happened at two different places. But I remember hearing footsteps at a duplex I used to live at in the living room. One time my mom thought I left the water faucet on in the bathroom at night, which I clearly didn't because I refused to leave the room every night.
So that's the freaky stuff regarding small people I know of with my mom and myself. Other relatives seen ghosts.
At my aunt's there is a woman in white that likes my second cousin. He's woken up to her staring at him, and his girlfriend has seen her too (they used to live there with her). His mother, my cousin, used to feel like she was being choked when she slept sometimes, when she lived there long ago. And they seen someone running down the hallway, in front of the TV in the living room, and out the sliding glass door while watching football. This was my uncle, my aunt's ex boyfriend, and my cousin who all witnessed it. My other cousin's boyfriend talked to a little girl in white there too. He thought it was of the kids in the family (we had a family gathering) when he was outside in the backyard smoking a cigar. Their Roomba also randomly starts cleaning in the middle of the night, and they checked the app to make sure it wasn't set right. (That one is freaky but is also funny). My second cousin and myself (similar age) used to sleep over at my aunt's in her back room. And it was always scary. I always wanted to close the hallway door. We literally slept in a room of porcelain dolls. Not even joking. But while the dolls were "creepy" we both felt that they went the problem. So when my second cousin told me about the white lady, it kind of made sense. They said she wears a white dress and it looks really old fashioned. Lives over in Sacramento (Peter is from sac if I'm not mistaken) by Laguna and consumes river Dr. I don't know if there was anything old around there back in the day.
That's pretty much the ones I know of that I remember. I know other members have seen things, but like I said, it's hard to find the right time to talk about it. Needless to say, some people are ok with it, some aren't. My cousin who sees the white lady, is totally fine with it. And he's a really nice, good person. Myself, who is a decent person I hope, I hate seeing that stuff. I get really bothered when people talk about it because I had nobody to talk to about it. And nobody really wants to tell a kid "oh yeah I've seen that stuff too" because the implications in our society or in general could be really bad. I actually had to stop the video when I heard them talking about the little people, and continue watching it after I was ready.
@@ChristSyndicate Probably. It sucks either way. I always have a cross in my room now.
youre standing on volcanic ash in the middle of the ocean on an island with natives walking into a glacier and talking and learning their language. What a fever dream of a life
Thanks Seth, yeah that was quite magical out there.
Hey Peter,
I have been following your videos for quite some time now. I really love your natural contents. These are not over edited, no extra exotic music. Just simple natural conversation and cinematography. Feels so natural and realistic. Keep on making contents like this. Love from Bangladesh.
I love to hear their native language. So beautiful they continue to speak it and pass it along to the youngsters. Wish my ancestors would've continued to speak our native language after being brought to America. So cool to see how these awesome people live in their beautiful land
This is positive and good to know. At least there is some places left in the world that indigenous people can still live how they want to. Thank you so much for your work Peter , I love your channel and style of presenting. You make my UA-cam subscription worth every penny. Big love and respect from Northern England.
Peter you are lucky to spend time with them. they are truly awesome human beings.
wonder what leona lewis thinks about Yupik people listening to her songs while looking at reindeers lol i love it
Thank you Peter for bringing us a little closer to understanding native life and the magic in it. I think many of us still have some native in us and are desperately trying to find our way back. Your great work is much appreciated.
Alaska is one of the most interesting stories you did. I really enjoy it
Hey Peter,
I just want to tell you how much I enjoy you and this channel. I’ve seen so many of these kind of channels and it makes me sick how they act with these kind of indigenous people (even in Nepal, China, other countries) and they are so ignorant…
they say really stupid things and act like they have no brains or respect. It’s disheartening how they’ll say or do anything for the video, even if it’s condescending, they don’t seem to care how incredibly stupid and disrespectful they are.
I hate it!
But you don’t act like one of those “travel for the gram back-packers” or a fake documentary person who just basically invades someone’s land, tribe, family.
You’re so very grateful to be with the people you visit for the entire experience of it and it shows.
You’re often very soft spoken and in obvious awe of where you are and who you’re with. Very respectful and kind.
Man you just don’t see that too much these days. So many people just barge into other peoples lifestyles with not much consideration of their impact.
Thankyou so much for the videos you’re making and for the incredible kindness and gratitude you display.
I just love your channel and honestly I think someone, should be paying you a lot of money to bring us these most beautiful videos.
I feel like maybe you don’t get to hear this too often and I really felt like I wanted to say it.
You have an old spirit, a kind soul. It’s refreshing to see that.
I’m in awe of the content you bring, I feel like I’m learning so much about things that no classroom ever taught me.
I’m 62 and maybe your biggest fan. 👍✌️🇺🇸
😍Delaware
That's so sweet of you Lynn. Thank you so much for your kind words :)
@@PeterSantenello I just call it like I see it! 👍😂
Amazing sense of humors these people have, Its so refreshing, Everybody on this planet is the same. Incredible. Cheers Peter
Such a very fascinated part of the world. I haven’t heard about these people. They were so kind.
What a wonderful group of folks…,Enjoyed it all….The rainbow was beautiful….Thank you Peter for taking us along….
Thank you Peter for taking me places I will never get to see in my lifetime.
The landscape is so stark and almost brutal and then gentle. Just amazing contrasts. The ice crevasse was something magical. I actually gasped. The glowing color of it and it seemed to emanate a strange and amazing power. Have never seen something like that. Hollywood does not seem to capture that in films, etc. Thanks so much for this video. The people are very interesting and lovely. The men kept trying to spoof you and seemed to enjoy doing it so much. Spiritual and Powerful, yes,.
I would love to metal detect there. Would find some amazing things.
We love joking, teasing, laughing, life is too short to be mad all the time.
Peter, thank you so much for these Alaskan videos. You are so respectful and this education is so important to put out there.
Thank you so much for this tour of Savoonga and the surrounding areas. One of my favorite TV shows of all time is The Last Alaskans, and one of the people featured, Edna Korth, who now lives with her husband in ANWR, is from Savoonga. She talks about it with so much love, and I always wanted to see what it was like.
This was so amazing. I loved the story that the elder told of the little people. It was scary yet fascinating. You've brought Alaska to me in a way I never would've imagined!
The 12 ft Yeti sounded worse. I thought some place that isolated, with no trees wouldn't have yeti.
@@500dollarjapanesetoaster8 I didn't know what to make of the yeti story cause it kinda sounded like they were pulling his leg lolol. But the story the elder told sounded serious. She even gave a detailed description of what they looked like.
I just recently found your channel and I just need to say this is so soul moving, I really appreciate your respect for culture and hungry for knowledge.
You narrated a beautiful story. The way you engage the natives gives me a great insight to America. Showing the natural habitat, questions asked and incredible response from your friends. Thank you for sharing your adventures. 💕
09:00 nice lovely alaskan harp clouds
The little people did it
I love ancient languages....Welsh is very poetic as well....
Peter Thank you always for sharing these amazing parts of the world and the amazing people who live there. Just fantastic. ❤
I love these Alaskan videos! I’m moving back to Fairbanks next week. So cool to see other areas of the state!
I’m so happy to have watched another part to your travels there & the shared stories were of great interest. Here in my Cree ancestry we too share those same stories of the “little people” which have been passed down from every generation. Thank you for this wonderful shared day sir 🙂👋🇨🇦
I love how all Natives use humor. A characteristic that is through all tribes.
I like your videos so much. You travel and shoot in really interesting places and i like your style and how you respect the people you meet. If you ever want to come to Finland , I would like to introduce my home country to you!!
Once sanna marin "hoe" leaves office. Sure lol
I’m loving this series, thanks so much. Another world. I am jealous of you Peter, such a wonderful interesting life you lead, learning and then sharing it with all of us. 👍🏻👍🏻
Super, Spectacular, Wow great island with real down to earth people that showed you a fantastic time! Thanks to Peter and the Siberian Yupik people for a cool video.
Hello Peter, thank you for your tour of that far away land island and its beautiful people. Much respect for them and their lifestyles and for their appreciation and respect of animals that sustain them and their families.
Thank you so much for this. I’ve been fascinated with Alaska and the indigenous people of Alaska for years. Much respect.
How incredibly amazing! Beautiful people, beautiful culture and beautiful scenery. What could be more perfect?
Peter this was my favorite of all your videos and that’s hard to top. I love their humor. You were a good dude to take it all in stride.
I worked 27yrs putting in 15hr days and been married for 27yrs with my wife and I taking only one vacation out of state all these years.
We are blessed to travel with Peter through UA-cam on our TV and getting to see the beauty of this 🌎 world.
So now we paid our house and land off and plan now to finally take a vacation.
Im 47 and excited just to start our travel through my home state of Michigan first. And if lucky? Maybe Peter will be filming 😁
What a great series. I wish the videos were longer. Absolutely beautiful.
Me too! But unfortunately I think the majority of UA-cam enjoyers prefer short content (hence UA-cam shorts) and they tend to recommend videos that are under 30 minutes :/
This series on St Lawrence Island history and customs was beautiful. Wonderful humble spiritual people. Thanks for this.
It's crazy to me how quiet life must be in villages like this. Personally I enjoy a little noise in my daily life but I can definitely appreciate this lifestyle. When you're not aware of the issues outside of your area you live in bliss
So beautiful. What genuine people you spent time with. I'm greatly enjoying your Alaska trip!
Thanks!
It has been a great pleasure to watch and listen to these delightful people.
I love your videos, it's so cool to see how these people survive in such a beautiful place! And a bonus rainbow! ♡
So beautiful…don’t see any one trying to be more than they are …just humans getting along and surviving with one another…no pretenses no hierarchy…true respect and love of the land ….thank you for sharing
I'm so grateful for the honor to view and share of moments of living , in the now,, by my fellow Americans! Wish I could visit and experience the life and environment! They will always be in my prayers! Fabulous video.
This is one of the channels that I have no regrets for having hit that subscribe button. I love people,and I love to know more and learn more from people around the world. Thanks bro for this revealing
How wonderful! How beautiful! Thank you Peter for landing on this St lawerence Island! These people are peaceful and even playful! Wish I could have seen those Reindeer!❤️😀🇺🇸🌏
Stunningly beautiful desolation! Loved this series Peter!!
Mesmerising episode & learning about their culture, heritage & hearing their stories is absolutely fascinating. The landscape is so beautiful but unforgivingly raw even in the summer & that rainbow was just Magical ! Eagerly awaiting the next upload.
The difference between this and something like Life Below Zero is the realness of the life there. I love hearing the stories. I am so interested in learning about the logistics of living there. How are the homes built, how they get water etc. Excellent video. I also enjoyed the last video as well. These Alaskan videos are so well done and interesting. I could watch an entire series of remote living.
@8:37 that looks identical to El Nevado de Toluca, it's a Volcanoe in Mexico when you reach the top that's how it looks, very nice bro amazing island you visited
Thanks for taking us along on your journeys.
My favourite people, love the way they speak.
Fascinating. Love the people. Spectacular scenery.
Can't say this enough. You make the best content.
Love this series of Alaska
Your channel is one of the best. I love the format and the locations. UA-cam recommended your channel to me, and I am so glad that I checked it out. I really enjoy it. Keep on keeping on.
All the stories about little people and creatures, I believe every word of it. Very interesting.
Love Natives, such beauty and wisdom. GOD bless us all.
Truly a beautiful video, people, scenery and story. Amazing!
It was such a pleasure to talk with you Peter. I hope you gained some insight on your Native series. Like I said if you need anything from me on any of the series coming up you have my info. 1Luv and God bless my brotha
Absolutely amazing ! They are so connected to their land and spirituality :-) what do we really know about our world ? Totally awsome people
What a awesome series you did sharing Native Owned Alaskan Island. Thank you for sharing.
Blessing from the lower 48 to the tribe
This is a piece of mosaic of humanity. Glad you capture & record it. It's such invaluable experience.
Loving everything about this series including the music!
Just to be clear, this profile posing as the author Peter Santenello is a fake. Beware if they try and get any of your information.
Enjoyed this visit to St Lawrence Island.
Thanks Peter. Cheers 🇨🇦
Thank you Peter (and wife) for the video.
I grew up in Southwestern Alaska and the Southwest Yupik culture is the same. "Yupik" actually means the "real people" because in the culture there are many kinds of people, little people and the people from other realms that we cannot see. Just like there are many different names for snow.
im ojibway we got little people in our culture too think every native tribe has em
Another great vlog about such beautiful people. Such a beautiful part of this planet earth. Hopefully, I'll have a chance to visit that gorgeous place in the very near future. Thanks, Peter, for sharing this wonderful clip, beautiful place, and beautiful Yupik people. Respect 🙏
Wow! Very interesting people. I love your interviews. Thanks for posting.
You're the best Peter. Thank you for sharing the world with us.
At 23:36 you can see some kind of apparition or spirit in the window of the building Peter is staying in
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing this with us Peter!
I love them all. Great story. Cant imagine in winter.The family stories are amazing.
What a privilege and great experience. I know the opportunity is not lost on you. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to the next
