    People watch your videos because they can only dream to do what you are doing for real. There are people at home who are lonely, and you talk to them like you are a good friend. People want to escape to the freedom that you are experiencing. They can never do that. They have adopted you are their brave friend. They can live their exploring heart through you. The music is absolutely beautiful and so are you, sir.

    Those sunset-colours are splendid. But what a desolation, what a silence, and what.... a cold, I can feel it from my warm armchair ... Your van-home becomes more and more cosy, with the little candlelight-houses and their pretty shadows. You've got more and more little lamps, I love your coloured kissen and the superwarm lama-blanket... You could have added some paprika-powder and some chicken-herbs in powder, always tastful.... They call it french fries, but only my own country Belgium is famous for its authentic "pommes frites",.... That seems to be a good start in your carreer of "King of Winter-Wonderland" season 2024-2025 ! Good luck Jarl !

    Incredible resilience! Surviving your third winter of extreme van life and camping in freezing temperatures is truly admirable. Your ability to adapt and thrive in such challenging conditions is inspiring. The way you capture the anticipation of a snowstorm and the beauty of winter camping is simply amazing.

    Hi Jarl! I can’t believe I finally caught one that you just loaded 1 hour ago. Snow loves you! In Great Lakes area and upstate NY they’re still getting snow I believe. Even snow thunder effect, I believe their forecasted 5-6 ft. We were lucky on Cape Cod SE MA. we got rain.

    Hello Jarl .Im not sure what day it is where you are but it's Saturday here in the U.S. I think winter is officially here. It's cold with some snow flurries but nothing big. Nothing like you have there. Minus 16 is way too cold for me! I don't know how you stand it !!! It's beautiful but I wouldn't want to live there. Spectacular scenery!!! Safe travels and sending you good vibes from Ohio ❤️

  • @Johnvanlife
    @Johnvanlife 2 дня назад +1

    Hi Jarl, good to hear that the problem with the glow plugs has been solved. I asked earlier whether the glow plugs had been measured (properly). Technicians do not always want to replace the glow plugs, because carbon deposits sometimes make them difficult to remove and they can then break off. Marinka really likes your slippers.

    • @NorwegianXplorer
      @NorwegianXplorer  2 дня назад +1

      Thanks John, yes it is good to have that solved, this time they measured them to have a very high resistance, which was not a problem in the spring when I had them look at it, but now it definitively feels like it has been fixed, the van starts with no problem in minus 19 and it really feels like the glow plugs might have been the issue all the time. In the end it didnt cost me too much, around 400$ in the spring and 800$ to change the glow plugs, so I am very happy with how it is working now. The slippers are down booties from Western Mountaineering, very warm and comfortable

    My children are in their 4th winter in Sweden. They have learned to bundle up & stay quite warm . The most difficult part was to become acclimated to the short days & long nights, however block out curtains have helped much more than lights that mimic sunlight. Their dogs just love the snow, so they spend quite a bit of time outdoors on the weekends. It certainly is beautiful & my husband & I look forward to visiting again. This time, it will be in the winter rather than the summer!

    Great vid Jarl. Winter has found you. Going to be a really good one. Excellent drone footage. I don't see how it keeps from freezing up and the batteries dying. Very stark beauty. Sea of ice fog. Wonderful sunset. You don't get that at 3pm everywhere. No utility poles for miles up there. All generator when people are there? Good looking chicken meal.. Time to go to town and get some black pepper. Another staple of life along with coffee. A crock pot would come in handy with those type dishes. Low power consumption. Getting geared up with the wet snow and ice on the road. Should be fun. All good from east Kentucky USA Be safe and keep the drone charged. Next time my Nordic Adventure friend.

    I enjoy your content so much that I leave it on all the time. It's always playing at my apartment in Dallas, Texas. I am a single dude. I spent years living in the Rocky Mountains. I know every location you've been to in the states, and you smile the same way I do when exploring the Yellowstone Teton area. Not really sure why I'm telling you all this. But I will happily donate to the channel. It's endlessly relaxing.
    Only critique would be to create more new music for music sequences. As a viewer you get used to the same tracks. They are good tracks, however. They capture the mystery of our earth.
    You've definitely dialed in on your editing, timing, framing, and even lighting and wardrobe.
    Love your stuff. You bring me happiness.
    I can't explain why, but this has been your best video. It's perfect in its simplicity. Concise and measured in art and sound and visual representation.

    We had a VW van in 1972 and when camping in the mountains, of course the motor wouldn't even turn over. So we put our single burner stove on the ground, on low and put it under the oil pan (metal one) and in a while the motor would start.

We'll keep a close eye on that!! Really beautiful drone images of the area, beautiful colors. I love it! Accompanied by my absolute favorite song Brown Bear. When we were hiking in Sweden this summer, I played this song on my earbuds.The number fits so well into the landscape.
    You have decorated your campervan beautifully and cozy. Absolutely love those colourful blankets and pillows. And your slippers look cozy too😊 I'm curious to see how the snowstorm will develop. Stay safe and warm. Marinka

    G'day Mr Explorer, I have only recently discovered your videos, I'm enjoying them a lot, they are a little bit different from the camping we do here in Australia. you obviously enjoy your coffee and I too enjoy an aeropress coffee but you aren't making in what I reckon is the right way, 1. get yourself some beans and a cheap grinder, even a hand grinder will do, freshly ground coffee is great. 2. turn your aeropress upside down with the plunger in, then put in freshly ground coffee and the hot water , stir , wait a while before putting the lid with filter on and turning around into cup! ( I hope I'm not the thousandth person to give you advice on how to make coffee! )

    I don't think you would cope well with our hot summers over here in Australia and I sure wouldn't cope well with your freezing cold winters. One has to admire your ability to live in such conditions.

    Good Frosty Norwegian) Jarl needs to think about how to insulate the engine for the winter... The Italians make good cars, but in the winter in the Arctic this is no joke... We have frosts even below -40... People insulate their cars with covers and heaters in the engine connect from the outlet... Happy New Season of Storms and snow up to your knees :-)
