00:00Today we are gearing up for another journey to visit Samuel,

00:04to check on how he is doing and bring him some much needed food supplies.

00:09Samuel lives about 30 km away from the nearest village.

00:12To get there we have to cross a river and the roads this time of year are pretty rough.

00:18So we have to prepare well just in case our vehicle freezes

00:22and we are stuck out in the heart of the vast taiga forest with no way to call for help.

00:27You might be wondering why would anyone choose to live in such a harsh place?

00:33Well, I agree living in one of the most challenging environments on earth is not easy

00:37and every day is a battle against a relentless cold.

00:41But there is something truly special in this place.

00:45The pristine beauty and serenity of this mighty land becomes a part of who you are.

00:51It's a bond that can never be broken.

00:57While we continue our journey, Samuel's days has already started.

01:20He began his day by reading newspapers and listening to the radio,

01:25his only connection to the outside world in his isolated home.

01:31Even though Samuel has been living alone for two decades, far from civilization,

01:35he is still very keen on the nearest village news.

01:38He carefully reads each article, often more than once.

01:42These newspapers keep him entertained and serve as pressured treasures he brought with him from the village.

01:48Samuel not only reads the newspapers, but he also uses them to decorate his house.

01:56Despite the challenges of living in such a remote place without the conveniences of city life,

02:01he strives to make his home cozy and tidy.

02:04The life in the coldest place on earth is difficult, but living alone in the Siberian wilderness is beyond extreme.

02:17Samuel faces daily challenges head-on.

02:20Even the simplest task can turn into a difficult fit.

02:25Every day he must figure out how to get his food.

02:29Unfortunately, Samuel lacks the hunting skills.

02:33Sometimes he sets traps to catch hares, but success is rare, happening maybe once a month.

02:38During the summer, Samuel spends his time fishing in the nearby lake.

02:44However, as the weather gets colder, securing food becomes a much more difficult challenge.

02:51Today he decided to take a chance and ventures to a nearby lake, hoping to catch some fish.

02:56He is an old man to the ground.

03:11He is a great man to visit a few years ago, though.

03:18He is an old man to the ground.

03:20He is a great man to visit a few years ago.

03:48There's one more.

03:51Sadly, today, the

04:21fish don't seem to be biting.

04:23When there is no food, Samuel embarks on a long journey, often lasting five to seven

04:29hours to reach the nearby village.

04:32The locals often lend a helping hand with food.

04:35He shares stories of his life in the wilderness, and in return, they provide him with food and

04:40essentials.

04:41There are people who are still living with food.

04:56They're still living with food, when they are living with food.

04:58They're from the soil, they're a good food.

05:02We put in the water that we put on,

05:05we put up the water, and the water.

05:08We will feed the water and we will feed the water.

05:14Yes, the water is good.

07:05his roof which melts and flows into a burial but if he has a choice he prefers to drink the melted ice from

07:12the lake that is only available in the winter to wash and keep clean he carefully warms water in his

07:20trusty stove patiently waiting until it reaches the perfect temperature

07:29with resourcefulness born from necessity samuel has fashioned an outdoor shower using gasoline containers
