You guys, I'm fairly new to this channel, but seriously who else can see being great friends with Cecilia, sitting around having great conversation, laughing, drinking coffee and snuggling with Mr. Grimmy Boy?! It takes a special skill to make folks feel like that through a video! Congratulations on all your success Cecilia!
I had the most amazing pleasure of visiting Longyearbyen 3 years ago to take part in an Arctic training expedition. It was love at first site! I have been trying to find reasons to go back ever since, but family life, work and covid have got in the way. I even wrote to the local hospital (which I had visited) to ask if they needed a nurse, thinking perhaps I could do a month here and there for them if they were ever stuck. I am a Canadian nurse but live in the uk. I love, love, love your videos. Watching them make me happy after a long day at work. xx
It would be really cool if you put the time of day occasionally in your videos. I find it really interesting with the light when you're outside to know what time of day it is.
Cecilia, I love your channel with Christopher and Grimm! I have a dutch shepherd that I treat the same way as you treat Grim (Hogan is my puppers). Whenever I don't feel like taking him for a walk to the dog park in the cold, I think of how you guys take Grimm out and then fight off polar bears! Then I psych myself up with "If Cecilia can do it with Grimm in the cold, I can suck it up and take Hogan". We get our walk in and everybody is happy. I also love your beautiful cabin, your life on Svalbard. Your videos make me happy!
Cecilia, you are one beautiful lady. Gorgeous compliction. I am one who can’t stand the cold anymore, but after watching your videos I would give anything to come visit this area of Norway. My grandfather was from Farvang. Through you I have fallen in love with Longyearbyen/Svalbard. I cannot say thank you enough for introducing me to this part of the earth. You are a gracious hostess. I pray you continue to share with us your life there. God Bless you forever. Before I forget you have to gorgeous fur babies. They seem so happy all the time. Look who their Mama is.
I found you this past November and your videos have been so cozy and comforting to watch during the cold, dark winter . . so seeing the daylight return to Svalbard through your videos makes me feel so hopeful and excited for the coming spring 💛
Grim has completely melted my heart. Always so happy and sweet and achingly beautiful. He was so ecstatic when you said hike, but still sat and held out his paw!! 🥲 what a good boy.. Your photography is amazing, you capture the heavenly beauty of the skies so perfectly. I can’t imagine the excitement of seeing the sun for the first time after the polar night. You always make me laugh with your dry humor.
Your videos always remind me to embrace nature, regardless of the weather. Wolfie is thrilled when he hears Grim because he knows it means I'm watching your video and will soon be suiting up and taking him on treks through the woods and traipsing through all the snow and freezing temps and just getting out, being active, and enjoying the seasons and all they bring.
There are no words to describe how beautiful the colors of the sky look next to the fresh snow on the mountains. I'm hoping to get a Svalbard trip planned soon and I can't wait to see the amazing things you've shown in your videos. Also, Grim is the most precious little floof. I love how excited he gets when he plays in the snow.
I am watching you get dressed and all I can think about is poor Randy... Ralphies little brother from the christmas story :-) The mother just keeps adding more and more :-)) I live in Utah so I get the need for layers :-))
Cecilia, it is a pleasure to meet you trough your beautiful videos ... Seeing your enjoyment of life in the extreme environment influences for the better my behavior when the weather is not the most favorable here in Seattle, USA.. Thank you very much and loving greetings...🌨☃️🤗
As usual the music you chose is beautiful and enhances the scenery and storytelling. This is one of my many favorites that I've watched more than once! Thank you
The views are breathtaking! What a magnificent place! And the colors ...Wow! Cecilia, you are practical, artistic and hospitable! Thank you for sharing your northern life!
You are just the most amazing storyteller and guide. Because of your channel I am planning on visiting Svalbard when it’s safer to travel. #3 on my bucket list #2 Mainland Sweden #1 Scotland in November Thank you from San Francisco 🇺🇸 Thank you
It’s such an awesome feeling when I find a new channel that I love!! Beautiful! ❤️❤️❤️ edited to say...the shot of Grimm with the village below is stunning!! Thanks for sharing.
I so enjoy watching your blog at nighttime when I go to bed. Your life is amazing and the videos of your surrounding are so relaxing! That Grim is so beautiful!
I used to hike in my youth often since I live near the mountains in Bavaria. Now iI am 79 and not so fit any more, so I chanched to E-bike😊. Love every video you put out. Love to film and vlog myself!
So nice a day! I agree WOOL all the way for skivies. Reminds me of my down hill ski days, ride the gondola to the top to see the world then shush down. Love your view, so clear and pretty colors. Grim can pull you along! He’s so sweet.
Thank you! Thank you! for sharing your mittens! I've had this "idea" in my head for mittens for yrs. but could not find them anywhere. Watching your video, OMG there they are! Just ordered and can't wait to get them. Thank you again, your video's have renewed my love for the cold Alaskan winters. Your positive perspective on life is so refreshing.
Thank you for another beautiful video! I'm admiring how the cool blue light of early February is fading into a warmer lavender. So pretty and I'm so glad we get to appreciate it with you!
The opening of the video with the snow falling.. That was gorgeous! And the views on your hike! Nature is seriously so fascinating... Those huge ice covered hills make the houses look like toys. Nice video Cecilia!
At the moment sunrise is in the South-East and sunset in the South-West. You were thinking about that. Thank you for show us the light during these winter days. Great video
Cecilia, your blue eyes were just popping in that beautiful light, and your skin looks fantastic as well!! And of course Grim always looks fabulous! Does he ever help pull you up the hill?
Absolutely gorgeous colours, I think one day I will have to paint one of your photos. Also the crunch of the snow was so evocative, nice crisp dry snow, like the snow we got in Michigan when I was little. All our snow in Northern England is really soggy and damp. Very jealous of your crisp snow.
It's been a really tough year and I have so enjoyed your positive attitude, your life so different than mine. You are my "get away". My Father's great-grandparents came from Oslo, Norway to America. Silly as it is I love to here the crunch of the snow as you walk. Thank you.
I hope you don't mind a couple of questions. What are the tides like? Do you ever have rough seas? Does that ever impact your home? What is the village's protocol is there are high seas or a tsunami? I love your channel. And Grim is majestic!
Thanks I am seeing the arctic through your camera, but so many dress, I thank god for keeping me in a place on earth where there is no need for sweaters throughout the year
The sun might not be out yet but the light looks just beautiful now and it was great to see how different the plateau looks after seeing it in the dark on your New Year's hike. Thanks for showing us a map so that we can see where you're going and thanks for featuring Grim too, you would have been up there a while if he didn't pulled you down!
I love your videos and LOVE Grim. Everything is so beautiful. I know it’s probably just me, but I’d love to see more about food in your videos. Your options and the traditional foods on Svalbard are so interesting, at least to me. Thank you!
Fun and Interesting new video. Loved it. I see you have your rifle with you, "just in case". Thanks for the weather add - seems cold to me! lol I love Grim at the end jumping in the vehicle. Like - let's get home and feed me! Thanks for your journey - can't wait for the next one.
Beautiful day, Cecilia. Thanks for sharing! Grim is so sweet🧡 Have a great week and hugs to you and your sweet boy. I can’t wait to see the progress on your home ☺️😄
Stumbled upon your channel while down the RUclips rabbit hole 1 evening over Christmas and have pretty much watched all your uploads since with my 13yr old daughter who loves Grim , keep up the great content much love from Scotland 🏴
I laughed at your wondering if the sun rises in the east or in the west. I can understand your dilemma since, for you, the sun rises and sets down there in the south somewhere. :D The sky colors reflected off the mountains and the sea - wah!
Beautiful sky view over the bay👍. Here in Stockholm area the past weeks of winter just melted away last week end. So now all is back to greyish colors again.
Amazing and beautiful view! I think I love your channel because you are so happy and enthusiastic. It’s so nice to someone who has found happiness. (Grim too!) I think we should all strive to find happiness, joy, and the love of life no matter where we live.
Such a brilliant veiw again from new years Eve on top ov the mountain weather's getting better ,new build on the house will be goin 100%,can't wait for total day light your new home will be amazzzzzzing

I was just thinking the same 😁❤️ when are we scheduling a trip? 😂

Grim was like "I'VE BEEN WAITING FORVER!" He was so excited to go on the hike with you!
haha yeees he LOVES it 🤩🤩
Haha yes he would say that if he could talk.
I just realized one thing I LOVE about Svalbard is that all the structures are single story. Having no high rises really saves the beautiful scenery.
Who else watching shouts “Grimmmmm” when he makes his first appearance 🙋♀️🥰
Such a zen, color experience hiking with you!
hahah! 😍 Grim is the star!!
I do . . He's so cute! X
Yes soooooo true I did in my head lol
@@CeciliaBlomdahl yes he is snd soon I will wear his name around New York 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
🙋♀️
It would be really cool if you put the time of day occasionally in your videos. I find it really interesting with the light when you're outside to know what time of day it is.
Grim is such a trusted companion. He is like a baby.

Haha, "Grim, did you have a good walk?" .... "Yeah, but we stopped "
hahah so true 😂
Haha 😂 soo true lol.
@@CeciliaBlomdahl Does Grim understand multiple languages? 😃
@@gmada I wonder the same!
Your show is so relaxing and calming for some reason. It's therapy for me. Thank you.

Lockdown and comfort food has made me ready for a trip to Svalbard.

Ooh the gimbal made such a difference! So steady, even in the house! Loved it!
Hey Cecilia,
Your choice of music for your videos are always so mesmerizing. ✨
Amazing. Thank you. I can't stop watching your videos
The scenery is breath taking! It's so magical and it would be a dream to go visit
Another fab video. When you give those quizzical looks out to the distance my tummy turns. I keep thinking that you have seen a polar bear 😱 x
My birthday is on the 8th of march. Thats when the sun comes up, looking forward to watching your vlog about the sun fest week
I am watching you get dressed and all I can think about is poor Randy... Ralphies little brother from the christmas story :-) The mother just keeps adding more and more :-)) I live in Utah so I get the need for layers :-))
I love how excited Grim is always its adorable
😍
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west- you got it! The sky is simply breathtaking!
The village is so beautiful!!!! It just sits in the valley, surrounded by all the mountains. Truly breathtaking, Cecilia!!
Cecilia, it is a pleasure to meet you trough your beautiful videos ...
Seeing your enjoyment of life in the extreme environment influences for the better my behavior when the weather is not the most favorable here in Seattle, USA.. Thank you very much and loving greetings...🌨☃️🤗

The village just moulds into the landscape. Amazing light ... so pretty 🌼🌸🌼
Thank you for sharing Grim, the house build, and Svalbard with us! Your videos have been a nice escape this past year.
I am watching from the warmth and cannot believe the beauty.
Grim absolutely LOSING IT when he realized he was going on a hike made my day 😭
At the moment sunrise is in the South-East and sunset in the South-West. You were thinking about that. Thank you for show us the light during these winter days. Great video
I don’t think it’s ever not beautiful where you are. Constant evolving beauty. Looking forward to seeing every video you make❤️
I watched this while knitting. I love that you wear a hand-knit jumper!
I love your sweater!!! Actually, I love your wardrobe!!!
What a cute dog👍👍It feels like Grim is very excited for the HIKE,.
Cecilia, your blue eyes were just popping in that beautiful light, and your skin looks fantastic as well!! And of course Grim always looks fabulous! Does he ever help pull you up the hill?
Absolutely gorgeous colours, I think one day I will have to paint one of your photos. Also the crunch of the snow was so evocative, nice crisp dry snow, like the snow we got in Michigan when I was little. All our snow in Northern England is really soggy and damp. Very jealous of your crisp snow.
The colours in the sky are breathtaking. Great hike!
Grimm is sweet! Thank you for showing the beautiful view. It’s an incredible sight for this city girl!
the end was funny when you told grim that was the wrong way and hes like nope mom I got this and hops in the back lollll
Thanks a lot for your post , I can't stop whaching them.Grim IS so cute!! And you are so nice !
Yes, wool!!! I swear by it for cold weather. Nothing else works for me. Very helpful to see what you use for your hiking. Gorgeous sweater, too!
It's been a really tough year and I have so enjoyed your positive attitude, your life so different than mine. You are my "get away". My Father's great-grandparents came from Oslo, Norway to America. Silly as it is I love to here the crunch of the snow as you walk. Thank you.
It was so nice to see these mountains, the sky and the sun... which is comming soon! A very good video and lovely to see how you enjoy to hike.
Thank you!! 🤩🤩
Yeahhh! It's Svalbardtime!!! Always excited about a new video from you! Thank you! 🙂
Beautiful video Cecilia. Thanks for sharing your little piece of heaven, and of course, adorable Grim!❤❤

Breathtaking - the light and the colours, and so tranquil too. Another beautifully shot video ❤️
Thanks for taking us along!That's how it felt!!!
I’ve been binge watching all your videos :D so cozy
Gorgeous views and wonderful colors! Grim is just adorable.

Cabin is too close to the sea isn,t It?

You should do a VLOG on equipment. What the different Snowmobiles are used for / there cost / power etc. Different rifles/ flares.
I love your videos.Fantastic to watch how you get along
