VIVE AISLADO CON SUS ANIMALES ¡COMO HACE 100 AÑOS !

Hey YouTube family Today I'm gonna show you something you'll absolutely love just like the last survivor's episodes They've sent me the contact of a woman in her early nineties who lives alone in a small town—have you seen the miniature she’s making related to this topic is that we're going to meet Federico a man in his early nineties who lives alone in a remote village cut off from the rest of the world It has a nearby village but as you can see from where we're coming walking here this place is stunning—pure nature And nothing will we see because I don't know what I'll find but I know it's an ethnographic site a certain area well that's it It holds considerable value at the level of residential neighborhoods and historic housing ensembles and such places And I've never been there myself but as always I'll be recording a bit of the journey for you so you can see the location where it's situated As always I emphasize how important it is for you to subscribe so we can build a large community and keep YouTube supporting me and continue creating content because honestly I've noticed that many of you who watch the videos You don't need to subscribe just click the subscribe button which is completely free So I won't keep you in suspense—let me show you the path that you're going to love so muc Well I've already left the trail meant for ranchers in this area and we'd now be entering what lies beyond The path leading to this village this ethnographic complex—just look how well you can see the road isn't cared for at all with trees lying across the middle of it I've already been warned about the road since I asked a few kilometers back about the supposed path were supposed to follow I could have driven the four-wheel drive in but they told me not to saying it wouldn't be worth the risk since this place requires very little maintenance so I guess that's that Clearly it was better that I listened to them because otherwise we'd be in a bit of a tricky situation here trying to turn around with the four-wheel drive So I won't keep going down—I just wanted to show you as I always do in my videos a little bit of the path ahead Because they look so beautiful amidst all the greenery And to help them make up their minds it was a good idea since the ancient people who lived in this town had to walk here o enter and then exit to sell the entire harvest and everything produced in this village so nothing when I'm a bit further ahead and close to the town I'll keep recording I've reached a point on the path I never thought I'd find the truth before arriving in this town I knew tha We had to go all the way down to the river even though I just thought were crossing it specifically I'm going to show you something that's been around for a very long time now dicates that people once crossed the river here and this is the bridge Imagine that it's still preserved here given the river's floods because now we could easily cross right here Still it's worth noting that despite the low water flow the site remains preserved The old bridge incredible in its age is completely covered in moss and greenery We won't cross anything for him but look at this amazing spot this hidden gem spectacularly remind me of the ancient Roman bridges that once spanned these old streams calmly wondering about the era this village dates back to—specifically it might be a structure from the early or medieval period or even Roman to cross over well a passage way that might have existed doesn't have a Roman style bu Well considering how many times it must have been washed away by floods there's no way we're crossing over it but it's not solid at all and I'm still going to keep climbing the path that leads into town okay I'm finally getting in I've been walking here I'm entering the village and I wanted to show you the first house we came across which is this one right here I think this is the only one that has electricity because the others have none— they’re kept as they were Up to 150 even 200 years with a good view of the landscape it offers This village the closest one being the one over there about a kilometer or so away but anyway this man—Federico—lives here all alone with his cows And it's incredible because it preserves things that have already disappeared in other towns And now I'm going to start teaching you this is the first house and later we'll ask permission to see if we can take a look just to give you an idea of how life used to be in these villages The pathways are good as they've always had dirt and stones to walk and move across but still they're not owns that have cobblestone streets or anything similar Also it's important to consider garbage collection services This man claims to be about 90 years old and finds it very difficult to keep the village in good shape but as I've told you it's still reasonably well maintained It's quite old and as you know in Asturias weeds quickly take over everything Alright I'll keep going up to see if we find it because I want you to meet him—looking at this is another house and here would be the stable That was another house and I think it cost as much as four houses in this town—Federico will tell us soon—but it seems to have cost about four houses look here there's a bread oven I'm going to show you this now from here so you can see it much better That's a bread basket that's been around for a very long time—could easily be 200 years old These are blocks and at the end there's another house and here there's another dwelling that used to be the center square —yes this was the central plaza where— All the streets and houses align perfectly this is the house where he spends the night And that's what I assume since I'm telling you it's open and I imagine that's where he'll be Alright I'll check if I can find him since he'll be tending to the cattle but you know he has so many cows Here's Federico—how's it going Federico You'really 90 years old I can't believe it—what a man Álvaro delighted to meet you—look at him how he carries himself Wow incredible— it's hard to believe you're actually 90 years old You're still doing chores around here Alright look here I'm going to turn on a little light so you can see We didn't have a matralingo Wait I don't know if it shows up well on your end because I'm adding light so people can see a bit where you live since you're alone here completely alone and you don't even have electricity well someone had mentioned to me that one of the houses had electricity but only one did You don't have electricity but in one of the houses there is power and you can manage just fine without it here—don't worry it's not a problem You have a flashlight to navigate around here at night and at home Of course you see everything and you're not afraid to live here alone and the neighbors have seen that there was a village nearby the neighbors from there you know They don’t help with chores or even bother to come see you no not at all—each one’s distant it’s a shame but I’ll look into what antiques are around here What's this What antiques are there around here This is a pantry where things were stored It's a bit dim in this area This is the bench And what was the bench for Well people sat on it of course—sometimes to keep an eye on the fire or just to rest To warm up here And there they remained—just a table What you wanted and here was this cabinet I imagine it was where they stored the food supplies and all that stuff They kept it here this piece is made of chestnut yes it's chestnut it looks so precious just look at its age —let's see what else it might show us Look at this up here—it appears very dark because this area was where people smoked so there's a lot of soot It's quite dark in the camera but I'll do my best to explain what this is—this was the Sardo the thing they used to do here e place where the spring was located So so that’s right up here is where they used to roast chestnuts hey martin but I'll explain it to you step by step because these little holes here were actually slots and they were designed so that when they used the yar they could build a small fire inside They roasted the chestnuts that were placed on top with that What's interesting is that we'll go up to see what it's like up there and this wooden piece here really catches my attention—what was it used for To hang the pot and heat it up I imagine we just do it right here over the fire—unbelievable this is just like it was a hundred years ago effortlessly calm This thing here the guindel—was there a specific name for it something like that because it made noise or something When you move it like this— It's incredible absolutely incredible that you're moving to that era Very nice very nice—unbelievable honestly you've got such antiques here And you were telling me just now that this little piece here used to hang on these little hooks El San Martín was when they would prepare a large pork feast hanging sausages and everything else here too just to smoke them Incredible look at this skillet they have here—probably what they'd use to cook and then I saw this table you have here— It was a woodworking bench but extremely old The bakery I showed you earlier was built right here on this bench Unbelievable—this bank is either 200 years old or around 150 Well but here it's different—unlike other cabinets available now which don't last at all this one look really catches my eye I've never seen anything like it before I've never seen anything like this before It was meant to sit without anything else—no I don't know what I'm talking about I've never heard it before—just to sit and nothing else—look because of its shape here to put your bottom on it And furthermore as you can see it's perfectly crafted and made from chestnut wood—you can tell everything was used to its full potential Three legs no Check out this interesting fact—important—now I see there's a staircase we can climb up and see what's there okay they're stone stairs And then the chestnut wood and up here is where he explained they used to place the chestnuts throwing them right here That's good it wasn't exactly like that because I already have some understanding of what it actually was like Federico this place had plank walls all made of wood right up to the top This is where it looks particularly bad A ver Yes yes So that the chestnuts wouldn't fall there Amazing so you know right here in this room they used to do And well this I suppose would already be a room wouldn't it This was already an incredible room the guy must be all over the place I imagine with the years he's had This is where I imagine you kept your things when going to sleep and all that stuff It was a type of closet like the ones we have now but built into the wall Look at this window these intricate details— a completely hand-carved window Goodness if the fig tree weren't so overgrown we'd have spectacular views here and up above I imagine it must already be the attic now That's great—I'll show it to you since we're here I'll show it to you now but honestly this house I have to tell you is very dark due to the lighting issue The issue with the smoke the firepit produced has left all the wood extremely dark and even with a powerful light set to maximum it's still hard to see It looks pretty dark but anyway I hope you've enjoyed it and this little dog—what's his name —has been a hit Hey hey how's it going What a great one she is the one keeping you company I imagine he's a very tall man There's an old wooden harao over there but I guess you don't live in this house—you must be living somewhere else around there The houses are all the ones used Since it affected her so deeply she doesn't rush the line—she's cut short like a five-meter log And you don't feel the cold in winter here Of course there's nothing better than seeing the views we have here—this landscape is spectacular truly Everything surrounded by nature is breathtaking Alright let's head down from here and see if he shows us another little house down below Good and we've been asking Federico where he usually lives in this town and he told us he lives She spends most of her time in this little house here one of the ones without electricity but well-managed nonetheless And you told us it wasn't a problem if we met her so come on let's go meet her We're nearly familiar with what an old house was like one from around a hundred years ago And look these are constructions as you can see allowing me to give you a bit more light Well we caught you off guard Don't worry he's quite handsome—those are spectacular constructions look at those chestnut doors and the floor is always made of chestnut Look at this adorable little piece of furniture she has right at the entrance Look at these light fixtures—nice that they don't have lights but at some point they might have had them And this is the little kitchen the kitchen where you live your life The kitchen—look look look at this what a beautiful fireplace This is where you cook isn't it Looking at this I imagine you light your bonfires here in winter warm yourself sit here and that's about all you need Incredible how this has changed It was an oven and now you'repurposing it to store medicines and a few other things Well take a look It's not that I need many luxuries It's upside down sure but it's a house from over a hundred years ago and it's holding up pretty well As for the time he has he's also constantly shifting around not staying in one place moving between all the different ones but it's absolutely beautiful I really loved it a lot let's take a look at that part too—I really liked the house down here as well Where the little cows were before when we go up there The little village with the man who wants to teach us a bit more and here he explained that this was where they used to place the old The bees were real and that's where they made the honey and all that stuff—look there they placed them there And well were heading down to check out the other house the first one we found we're going around the back side Up there they put it too They were particularly prominent here constantly eating and eating honey — the Moors which had already begun toward the end of 1938 Late in 1938 some Moors arrived—around that time they were seen—though they came because they decided to stay and live here or perhaps because they were stationed here They roamed throughout this entire mountain and since they had hives here they could feast on the honey as there was plenty of it back then I'm so hungry because they broke the bread and even today But anyway it'll teach us to look because the little town has spectacular streets—though it's quite crowded now that it's won filth and we're avoiding the dirtiest areas so we head down since the town's so picturesque I'm impressed by how well you're handling this This was the house we found right away Looking here there was another house and in the house of your ancestor’s grandparents—your grandparents’ grandparents—there was Of course you'd all be families in this village how many families were you here Each of the two families has many children not many children each From 9 to 10 children were common in these families back then—now it's rare—well take a look here's another example If the good oven teaches us something it's that people really love ovens —this was another old house here that he well lives in only occasionally The oven no longer needs a fire The scandal was a cereal true because there are many people who don't know what it is Well look these structures here could use a bit of light to brighten things up a little Look Federico's calling us so we can go see something here — don't worry I imagine this place is completely deserted just look — check out the oven that was here — I'm heading there Let's take a look over there—this was the oven and right here is where the bread was baked The camera doesn't go that far but roughly you can see an old leather horse saddle chair here Looking at another fireplace Let's see what we can find around here Don't worry even if we know this one's abandoned there's no problem don't stress about it just take a look This was the other chimney that would provide the draft since here behind the wall and it would rise upward and here I imagine people would get warm not to endure the winters Check whether you're still following the procedure for making San Martín which we explained to you earlier It was hung here meaning this room served as a smokehouse which is why the walls are so black There's no balance here there's no balance here That’s what I imagine was a feeding trough but this—this was an ark Let me show you an ark Come on let’s go see it Good we've climbed up this far—this is what we wanted to show you Other little details found in houses like these—quite unique to such old private homes—one of them being the view you get from here Imagine being there back then gazing out at the view from the balcony— everything around you the entire landscape of nature visible from this very spot Yes Federico the view is excellent—this house is truly incredible just look at the views this little bench is made of chestnut and it has a very long handle and a wooden toothed shovel at the end That entire thing you see there is the classic toothed shovel commonly known today as That's great—this one's for the grass not for gathering it and it's a pitchfork And now we're going to enter a room where I'll turn on the light because it's quite dark in here too which well we might come across a chest—or what you called a trunk right They kept everything they needed here safely stored so neither mice nor anything else could get at it And what really catches my attention is this bed—Federico couldn't possibly sleep in it because of its size it's extremely small and even the mattress itself is tiny Clearly missing were the ropes that were tied there the ropes that were placed So they'd stretch ropes just there toss her onto a mattress and off to sleep and the mattress was made of bee wool not sheep wool From the leaf also from the ears of corn whatever there was let's go ahead What each person's purchasing power could afford—look at these curious wooden racks how lovely they are Since everything is smoked here well over the years they've taken advantage of that to make The cozy well-kept houses here no longer serve the purpose they once did but still he has his tools his little things the batteries for the lights e focal point and all that stuff That's where people used to climb up to the attic he tells us yes as I mentioned these houses are extremely dark inside And He wants to show us too that there are some lovely things Very nice tools like that wooden hammer—it's been around for a long time No You made the tubes notice they have the peculiarity of appearing to have been floating for an extremely long time along with a type of wood found here I am no That's the way to look at it I don't know him either Well then let's go show us the tree Look the guide tells us this is the tree we have here This is an evergreen tree so he uses the wood from this tree to make things then ools like the hammer you just showed us for example And we've also come to the bakery because there's something here that Federico wants to show us right Federico You want to show us something here at the bakery don't you The ark where the grain was stored right Not Noah's ark I'll take a look—this is an ark where grain was stored That's how a single piece was made in other words that was significant for the era—having just one piece came from a very large tree What do you want to see what he has 80 and a picometer Well from a very large tree Yes yes the truth is it's an ark Honestly I've never seen one in any of the towns I've visited On the other side but I'll record you now as you cross over because I'm scared—wait still be careful We're inside the bakery and there's another one here not quite as big but still fairly large And what I was telling you earlier— I was right it wasn't where the grain or cereal was stored U and that's where this was kept in a cabinet but now it's overturned and that's where he used to store things and this here was the spot And what was it used for For manure—meaning they placed the manure on that platform and dragged it not across the ground And it had no wheels Well look With those stockings I imagine you'd just put on another pair when they wore out—what kind of wood is that though Castaño Good you see now Federico how much strength he still has Notice how she moved it so we could see it Incredible Federico Well I'd never seen one quite like that whole before You'd see a lot throughout your life but me Honestly not much—just a few times This was an old mattress frame right Yes This one's already metal We already see this in many villages we visit This was a carved horn You left it out for the nuts and the mice ate it all up This is a salt shaker Salt goes here You were putting the salt here Yes for the molds Wow you're quite the craftsman huh Not really Damn The things you've taught me—well let's go down now No we're not going down yet it's a bit tricky over there And now let's look at something else Alright we're entering the other bakery There are three bakeries in total each with a different door They're divided into three different departments and you wanted to show me this right What is a bleacher Well that's where they used to tie them up A pair of horses— or oxen— dragged themselves across the ground and those little metal tips you see They were wearing down the earth Clods of earth Tell me You had another one right Nothing but people form an impression Especially this one since it's in pretty good condition you know Fold them The teeth If any tooth is missing Let them fall But it's still a worthy museum piece You're just tired of looking at it FedericoPero Tres Seis And it has six It has seven Up to eighteen A few more Well then let's head out already And let's wrap up the video as well There's not much more to see around here Well and after Federico kindly showed us around the village within the time we had we'll wrap up the video here No sin first asking why I know many of you will remain curious About not having electricity Well if it has a phone or what it eats And all those things— you never told me you had a phone— it's a phone and you recharge it at the only house with electricity And then nothing—something that's sure to catch your attention: because to go shopping there are few places around here not even in Mieres But how do you get down how do you travel Walking all the way to the road then catching a taxi or the bus getting off doing your shopping and heading back up So to show you it's not at odds with living in such remote places where there's always a bus or you can just walk down of course and nothing else May you continue to be very happy here I'm truly amazed by how young you are and how well you're doing And I suppose others feel the same way too I'm so happy to have met you Federico Me too Look how strong strong It's strong strong He also gave me a bottle of cider which I have right here —this is the drink traditionally enjoyed here in Asturias The gentleman was very kind and gave it to me so I'll drink to his health at home and once I've chilled it a bit So I hope you absolutely loved the video As always subscribing really helps me out If you follow me on Instagram I'll also post it down below there You'll help me out a lot too And that's it see you in the next video I hope you enjoyed this experience as much as I did So with that we say goodbye Federico Bye
