Several orthodox nuns and monks on their own will left the civilization and move away to remote siberian mountains.
They have no phones no connection to the entire world. If they get sick they can die... Near their house there are several graves of those who passed away during these years...
Life here is hard! Freezing cold in winter and summer is short and full of mosquitoes and ticks.
Their goal is to restrict themselves to make their prayers closer to God

It was nice to hear that the "hunters and volunteers" helped them to build their house.

A little bit of help goes a long way in that kind of situation.

When humans can behave themselves and have skills and can help out they can be a good thing sometimes.

Right now, half of the population of North America and Europe and elsewhere is /are worried about how they will live without Twitter as they know it. Thankfully the Orthodox there in the video are spared such worries. Probably they will be okay.

I just hope that they are okay with the bears/wolf's and that there ist a way for them to have veterinarian help for their dogs. But overall it seems like they are living in a way how humans are supposed to.
