⚒️ Nomadic-style firewood splitting; The secret to building a stone wall next to a mountain farm In this video, you will accompany Jahangir on one of his busiest autumn days. The weather in this region has cooled down and is getting colder every day; but experience tells Jahangir that the main danger is not the gradual cold. In mid-autumn, the temperature suddenly drops below zero and the cold multiplies. Therefore, he decided today to update the family's firewood storage and be ready for those cold nights from now on. The first part of this day is firewood splitting. Jahangir breaks hard logs with a hammer and chisel; a traditional and laborious method that has been tested for years in the heart of the mountains. Each blow breaks the wood into the right size and stacks it together so that it is ready for the wood stove and the cold days ahead. This task seems simple, but it requires discipline and perseverance: a little every day, until winter arrives, so that there is no shortage. For a family living in the heart of the mountains, this firewood is not just wood; it is a warm shield for the house against the merciless cold. The second part is the construction of a stone wall to control the slope of the farm. Jahangir's new land is located on the mountainside and must be leveled for cultivation and irrigation. He builds a short stone wall at the edge of the land to pull the sloping soil towards it and prepare the land for irrigation. The secret to this work is in the type of stone: Jahangir uses the same stones that were dug up from under the soil when plowing with donkeys; nothing is thrown away and each stone finds a new place in this structure. Obstacles become foundations. The tranquility of the mountains and the pristine nature of the region multiply the charm of this clip; The sound of hammer blows, the clash of stones and the silence of the slopes create a calm and healing atmosphere. Many of the beautiful and delicate moments of this day can only be discovered by watching the entire clip. So watch this video until the end and let yourself discover, watch and enjoy more moments in it.
