Who needs the gym?
People get exercise if they live in a Carpathian mountain village like this. the gradients are severe, and there is a huge amount of physical work to be done every day. So the traditional diet of sugar, salt, fat and beer is just right up here. The food is good, properly organic, full of nutrients, with spring water from the mountain, beer straight frm the brewery, clean air, and the natural daily and yearly cycle. Men live to ripe old age as well as women, working on the land into their 70s and even 80s.
The chap on the left, who lives in this house, is a top sportsman, having won the Balkan Cross-Country Skiing Championship in March this year, in Turkey. The enormous cup is in pride of place in his impressively full trophy cabinet. He's got more silver than Everton.
