Evgenij Raevskij is a Belarusian man who has gained attention for living alone in a unique house built from straw, sand, and clay in the village of Mirnoe. His home, which spans approximately 45 square meters, features distinctive 'eye' windows and a grass-covered roof that blends harmoniously with the natural landscape. As the sole resident of the village, he shares his experiences through a YouTube blog that has attracted nearly 100,000 followers. Raevskij is also passionate about gardening, growing various plants and maintaining a greenhouse on his property. His journey from city life to rural living began ten years ago when he sought a simpler, more fulfilling existence, and he has since created a vibrant life in the countryside.
