Belarus Villagers

Just a few hours’ drive from the Belarus capital of Minsk, many villagers still live off the land. Nearly 80% of the country’s 9.5 million citizens live in urban areas, but for the rest, being close to nature can outweigh the hardships of country life. Here: Ekaterina Panchenya, 75, walks in the snow to her neighbour’s house, in the village of Pogost, Belarus. “I do everything myself: feed the animals in the barn, the chickens in the yard. The river is nearby, the forest, mushrooms and berries in the summer. No, I’ll never in my life move to town”, she said. (Photo by Vasily Fedosenko/Reuters)
