They say that humankind always finds a way to survive. The living testimony to this are the desserts dwellers who sustain in scorching heat or the people in the artic regions who have maintained a life in sub-zero temperatures, or the forest dwellers in one of the most remote parts of the world. Sitting in our office chairs, while the AC is on full blast and our microwave notifies us that our food is ready, it seems almost impossible to survive in the above-mentioned areas, doesn't it? However, people do, and they do so with commendable spirits! We recently came across a similar video of a man from Russia who has taken the internet by storm with a simple cooking video from his region.
