    First of all I really appreciate following you and the family. Yes fall come quick and up north sooner than in the south. The dark will get to you. Many swedes have a low period in the dark season. What you can do is try to make the best of the seasons. Soon there will be snow and you can enjoy winter sports and the snow will make the darkness somewhat more baerable. Do like swedes and make the most of the dark with cozy moments with getting together over a nice fika, light candles, have lights in the windows and in your home and just sink in to that melancoly. After the winter spring will be a rush. You will see. Living with these extremes is an emotional roller coaster. Love your photos!

      Yes the dark will come, but for now I think there is still enough to do and even explore outside with less brightness. I think the winter is there to relax a bit more and slow down. We don’t always have to be in a hurry right? 🙈
      So we’ll see what winter will bring us 😉

    Your decription of the process of change is what we all experience when we change - and that is the reason that people do not change. The first phase is exciting and interesting -all new things to do and explore. Second phase is when you realise that you have to do the dishes here too, wash your clothes...everyday life sets in and you start to consider if you did the right thing. Third step is the elevation over your past and you start to thrive and enjoy life even more than before. If you never challenge that second step of inescurity - you will never develop as a human being. Or you will do it unconsciously and can take the victim role - why me? Why now? On no? Poor me?

    It will be a tough time for you now! It is not always so easy to adapt to the darkness and some days when the snow becomes wetter than real snow.
    I hope that the beautiful winter days that come later and the nice weather that also cheers us up will give results. The snow makes everything brighter and it's really refreshing!
    There are many of us who periodically suffer this time and you usually get used to it.
    I hope nothing else makes it difficult for you.

    Yes, it's really bad how the forestry companies treat the forest. You can cut down trees, but there are other ways. With respect and consideration. But the way forests are cleared in Sweden (and often in Germany too), it's all about money and the principle of "the strongest wins". Trees can't fight back - unfortunately.
    Thank you for the magical northern lights. I firmly believe that I will see it one day. It's one of my biggest dreams - for 30 years.
    Thank you for all the wonderful photos and impressions of the north of Sweden! And: yes, arriving is a long process, especially when two countries (the Netherlands and Sweden) are so different. I believe in you. I wish you that things will pick up again soon.

Hearing about you acknowledging the tougher times, being patient and knowing that it'll pass eventually, is something I needed to hear. It's ok to take time and not chase to keep up with others.
    On a separate note, I'm hoping this channel will grow over time to support you financially. I really enjoy your content. You have a great lifestyle in one of my favourite places I've ever visited. If this channel keeps growing that means I'll be able to see more of this beautiful area! 🫶

    About your mood (I know you’re feeling better now) - it’s going to come and go I think. I’ve experienced it many times, the darker periods of the year it’s easier to fall into this. I’d recommend checking your levels of the vitamin D3, as most people are deficient.
    What I like about your videos is your honesty. It’s so refreshing to watch someone being just themselves (or maybe I’m assuming but you appear quite authentic) and being vulnarable. So thankl you for that and for spreading realness and showing beauty of the world around us in this „fake - *ss influencer world of YT”. Just keep on doing what you’re doing and when your body and mind tells you to take a break just follow that voice. We all struggle sometimes. I wish you all the best. :)😊

    Of course, life is up and down and it can sometimes feel like life is unnecessarily difficult and complicated.
    When hopelessness creeps in I have come to the conclusion that it is extremely important to have a really good sleep and sleep properly, to eat nutritious and good food.
    Being fit and making sure to have a good physical activity every day is also important.
    Spending time with new and old friends is vital. It is also important to have your own time and avoid burdensome obligations and demands.
