What a beautiful video! Best of luck for your new life here in Norway! I love Trondheim myself, it's such a beautiful and cozy city, and the people there are so friendly. Again, best of luck to you both!
Thank you so much for this nice comment!
It looks stunning...cold, but stunning. You really conveyed the sense of peace you felt up there. Good luck!
Thank you so much for the kind words!
Such a beautiful video! 🥰 The landscapes are amazing! Can’t wait to follow you guys in this new adventure…
Thank you so much! 😍
what a nice video!! Thank you for sharing, already anxious to the next episode 🫶👏
Thank you so much! We're working on it and hoping to release it soon!
Thank you so much for sharing your journey 💛🙏 We also moved to Norway one year ago to start a life close to nature. We share our journey also on RUclips 💛. Good luck and I’m very curious where you will end up! We are on the island Andøya
Thanks for checking out our channel! We'll definitely check your journey too!
(Spoiler alert) We're not that far (according to Norwegian standards 😂). Andøya must be stunning, I'm sure you're capturing breathtaking landscapes.
Seeing the Northern lights for the first time is really special. I saw them once in Wisconsin, USA. It was unexpected, a surprise and unforgettable.😊
Oh yes I can imagine! We can't wait to see our first "unclouded" ones 🤩
I wish you both all the luck in the world.
I have just started my own property search, so I can empathise.
I hope all your dreams come true 😊
Thanks! We wish you best luck too in your quest, I'm sure you'll find, if not the perfect house, one that will fulfill your wishes and hopes 🌟
I hope you guys will find what you are searching for and happiness here in Norway. Looking forward to follow your adventure. Best of luck 🍻
Thank you so much for the kind words! ✨
If there's anyone capable of being acclimated for Norway other than the Nordics, it would be the Swiss, I haven't met a Swiss that didn't pick up the language and culture fast.
Best of luck on your new adventure and welcome to Norway.
That's motivating! Thank you so much 😃
Super cool! Looking forward to seeing more! 🥰
Thank you so much! We're looking forward to sharing more too!
Of course I love it!
I’m hoping to follow in your footsteps next spring, looking forward to seeing your adventures x
I wish you can accomplish this awesome dream! Thanks, we look forward to releasing the next episode 😊
As a Canadian living in a tiny island full of people everywhere (England), I can relate to the need to see very few humans and open spaces. Irony though is Switzerland looks pretty good from where we are living now 😂
Haha and though, it's such a small country that even if there's a lot of nature, you can't really "get lost" in the sense we want to 😅
G'day guys. Great video, epic scenery.
Hi there! Thank you so much, glad you liked it! :D
Loving the style of this video! What camera gear are you using? Some really nice shots!
Thank you so much for the kind words! We're filming on the Panasonic Lumix S5 and recently bought the S5 II as primary camera, so you'll have shots from both in the videos :)
Waiting for more! Beautiful journey 🤩
Thank you so much !
Hei ihr beiden 😊 Bin schon gespannt auf euer nächstes Video! Ich werde nächstes Frühjahr auch nach Norwegen auswandern ❤ LG aus Hamburg, Claudia
Thx. Made my day.
Thanks for the kind words 🙏
Epic!
It surely was!
I can't believe people are complaining about the lack of nature and space in Switzerland. 😂
Well... Switzerland is a small country and has one of the highest population density in Europe (ranked 16th, behind insanely small countries such as Monaco, Vatican, San Marino that biais the ranking xD). Whereas Norway... is ranked 58 😂 So yeah we can clearly see the change!
Anyway, weird things happen in weird people's minds 😜
I hope you can find a nice place in Norway. Good luck. :)
Thank you so much!
What a lovely video 😊👍
I hope you will finde a place here in Norway. (we need more young energetic ppl like you, and moest places outside the citys have a depopulation problem).
Unfortunatly i live in the densest part of the contry now, but i lived 1,5 years on an island with about 100 ppl..
You feel So Alive when your isolated in raw nature, and you feel the forces of the wind and the cold rain in your face in the fall and winter..
And its So beautiful in the spring and summertimes..
I miss it..
Hope you finde your place.
That goes straight to our hearts, thank you so much!
We're very curious to know which island was that 🤩
Yeah we definitely feel the same connection and aliveness in such strong nature! Hope you find time to reconnect to that too 😊 Thanks for sharing
@@someones_journey Thanks for your warming words 😊
It is an island outside the small town of Kragerø in the southern part of the contry.
Kragerø is called "the pearl of sørlandet" (the soutern part of Norway), and its where half of my family is from.
Now moest of the island is bougth upp by a billionere makings luxery sommerhouses for rich ppl,, so the place isent quite the same anymore 😢
It is ofc not as raw as Lofoten,, but that realy doesent matter when the augthom-storms turns the sea to "cream", you are still pritty isolated at an island...
Theres a place there where you can wiev "the gap of the ocean" as we call it, (the skjærgård opens upp and next stop is Danmark)
Put Wardruna on headphones and sit there for an hour in harsh weather contemplating life on earth... its magical.. 🤔👍😊
It's always tough to see a place you love and in which you have so many memories being transformed and invaded by people who don't respect much of it :(
And it doesn't matter how raw it is, as long as you feel good in it and you feel connected to nature, it's all that matters! It sounds amazing!
I hope that you're ready for literally months of no sunlight at times.
And checked the avalanche, rock slide, quick clay slide and flood risks of the building.
The risk of a small river suddenly appearing, or a bulder falling down is absolutely something to consider.
We're ready! But as there's nothing like experiencing it, so we'll see next winter ;)
Thanks, we keep these precious advice in mind 🤞
@@someones_journey You can sometimes look up maps of a lot of the local hazards on the website of the local municipality.
There's also a map authority with this kind of information.

To be fair, you'll land on snow in southern Norway too in winter.
We can imagine. But the fact that we didn't experience it in January neither in Oslo, nor in Trondheim made it really spectacular and "northy" for our first-ever snow landing 😃
I love Switzerland. Perhaps it's because it is a similar country to Norway in many ways (nature-wise and the apparent temperament of the people), though Norway has a (very long) coastline. I am guessing you are both adept at being close to nature, and as such, Norway should fit you fine. Coming from a bilingual society should help you fine, and being familiar with Germanic languages does help (I am guessing you are familiar with Schwiizerdütsch?). There are quite a few "gun clubs" near the major cities (pistol and rifle) and lots of nature to explore. The major difference might be the dark period (between roughly October and March). Just get a lot of D-vitamins, go outside to experience what little daylight there is at that time, and hang in there. It passes. Welcome to Norway.
Thank you so much! I guess there are some similarities, but talking about nature, Norway is just on a compleeeeeete other scale! Switzerland is unfortunately too tiny to be able to get lost as we like.
Even though we are from the French speaking part, Yoann handles German pretty well and I just keep learning Norwegian 😁
Darkness yes, but also constant light in summer 🤯 we're so thrilled of getting to discover all of that.
Thanks again so much for sharing
@@someones_journey Language is not a hindrance for you then, because it was hard to tell from your English. If you already know two-four languages, you have the ear for it. I wish you all the best :)
👍
So nice!
First time watching. Disappointed we didn’t really see the homes as your title indicated …
Hi there, thanks for sharing your impressions and sorry for your disappointment. But for us, our title translates our journey to searching a new home, which our video is totally about. It doesn't translate as "houses tour in Norway". Hopoefully, RUclips is a wide platform, I'm sure you'll find what you wish.

HAH! 68/69*N = Real North?? :D
It's my neck of the woods... coast... part of the world The LO(foten)-VE(sterålen) Islands.
THis I have to follow, to see how it turns out and where you ending up renting and finally buying a house 🤔
I guess you're from Svalbard or Greenland? 😂 Yep we do consider 68/69°N being real North. And we love woods and forest too much to end up in pure toundra (where will we hang our bushcrafting hammocks otherwise?!). But with pleasure if we arose your curiosity 😉
Nails in the tires? 🙂
Yes yes we had the comment already 😅 studded tires. It was the spontenaous literal translation from French that we came up with 🤷♀️
😍😍😍
Oh no.. you went north of the wall??? :O :D
We sure did! Where the wildlings rule 😎
Kinda ironic and a paradox that Swiss people move here to be happier, when Switzerland is very similar to Norway, and all our filthy rich people move there to escape taxes etc. And why Norway? Many Norwegians and foreigners move out of Norway😅 And as a Norwegian personally that’s too rural and secluded for my taste. Cabin life is enough once a year🥴🤣🤣🤣
That's what we've been told a lot!
Well all the reasons would be too long to describe here and they will surely reveal themselves in the next Adventures.
But beyond nationalities crossing countries I think it's a matter of sense of belonging, of love of Nature, of craving for bigger spaces (which Switzerland is too dense to offer). The points on which Switzerland and Norway are similar are mainly positive on our side.
And we feel good with the opposite ratio: cabin life all year long with "city life" to visit family once a year is beyond enough!
Thanks for sharing 😊
Home is were the heart is… and if it feels like it is in Norway and not in Switzerland you maybe do not need any other reasons ☺️ - I feel this 🫶🏼
Couldn't agree more ❤
🇳🇴💕
60❤cho các bạn🎉🎉🎉
Please rent first !
That was the plan 😉
Out of curiosity, why do you advice that?
@@someones_journey To see if you like the area and people. That is why I suggested to rent one year first.
