How do people live in remote villages in the Swiss Alps? Between orchards and remote farms

In the heart of the Swiss Alps, between green meadows and snow-capped peaks, lie remote villages where families live simple, peaceful lives, much as their ancestors did hundreds of years ago. There, the air is fresh and the sky is close, and every morning begins with the sounds of cows and goats filling the valleys with life. Farmers leave at sunrise to tend to their animals, feeding them fresh mountain herbs and milking them in the traditional way passed down from generation to generation, transforming the milk into cheese and butter renowned for their purity and authentic taste.
But life doesn't stop at the barns; apple orchards climb the mountainside, tended by villagers year-round and watered by cold streams. When harvest season arrives, they transform into a kaleidoscope of vibrant colors, where the fruit is harvested to make juices and jams that express the spirit and flavor of the mountains.

Good morning! At 24, my daily work in our small Swiss Alpine village begins at the break of dawn. I wake up to the sound of cowbells and breathe in the fresh mountain air. After getting ready, I head down to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the whole family. My parents and siblings need a hearty, energy-filled meal to start the day.
After breakfast, I help my parents with the work on our farm. We have a small dairy herd, and I am responsible for milking the cows, feeding them, and cleaning the barns. This work requires patience and meticulousness, but I love it. I enjoy seeing the healthy cows and knowing that their milk will be made into delicious cheese.
In the afternoon, I usually spend time helping my mother in the garden. We grow many types of seasonal vegetables and fruits, from potatoes, carrots, and cabbage to strawberries. My mother is a wonderful gardener, and I learn a lot from her. I love the feeling of working with the soil and growing fresh produce with my own hands.
As the sun sets, our whole family gathers around the dinner table. We enjoy supper together and talk about what happened during the day. Afterward, I usually spend time reading a book or knitting. I enjoy making warm scarves or lovely wool hats by hand.
Before going to bed, I always step out onto the porch to gaze at the starry sky. Our village is nestled among the majestic mountains, and the sky here is so clear that you can see thousands of twinkling stars. It's a peaceful moment, and I always feel grateful for my simple yet meaningful life here.

Life here is simple, yet rich with details that make each day a seasonal event worth telling. As you head north, nature, weather, and even lifestyle change. Plateaus rise, mist shrouds mountain peaks, and the cold sets its own rhythm.

The video is not just a display of natural scenes, but a window into a rare way of life; a quiet, pure life that teaches us that happiness can be found in the smallest details: in a fresh glass of milk, a freshly picked apple, or a view of a towering mountain surrounding the village on all sides.
Get ready for a journey that will take you away from the noise of cities, to a tranquil, pure world where people live in complete harmony with nature in the most beautiful villages of the Swiss Alps.
