FINALLY! We have been looking for a space like this for so long, and now we managed to snag one in Longyearbyen! In this video we take you through the entire process of setting up this space, AND we show you Christoffer's secret shed which required a HUGE de-clutter and organising! I hope you enjoy this video! Thank you so much for being here, I love y'all! ✨

Is Christoffer normally shy on camera or is it about speaking English? If the latter, I would welcome him to speak his own language (with subtitles) if he feels more comfortable with it.
I needed new deodorant and was gonna order some today, but I got this instead! Thanks for the recommendation!
So satisfying seeing everything together and new
I want one of Christopher's knives! I've been looking for a small multi-purpose knife I can take with me for camping/hiking. Does he make something like that? If he does I would love to buy one!
I would like to see some of his knives and maybe one video featuring his knife making process!!! You go, dude! So fabulous, every time I learn something new about him!
(About both of you, really!)
It's delightful to see how comfortable Christoffer is in front of a camera now! I remember when it was like pulling teeth to get him to say two words in a video. He's come such a long way.
😂 I agree!! 😃
Yes adorable !!! Example of couple respecting each others needs ❤
I was just gonna say how nice it is to see this whole video with so much of Christoffer in it!
Agree! ❤
Had to laugh, I also have an old man hoarder too!!!😂😂😂 He hoards and I help organise and tidy!! David needs a bigger man-cave, he'd be so envious of Christoffer's new space😍 a job well done, I'd say👍
Omg Christopher’s “Welcome to my man cave” is the best! And Grim has another couch!
The best part for me was the "hello".
😂😂😂😂 hilarious
It was the best thing!!!
That door within the garage door was so cool! Never seen one of those in the states!
I don't think I've ever seen Christoffer smile so brightly! It was a whole face smile. So glad to see he has a man cave and can efficiently work on his hobbies, etc. Go Christoffer!
Christoffer has the best smile. He looks so happy/proud of his new space. It’s great to see him more comfortable on the vlogs
18:14 Gotta love a respectful/insightful queen validating that her king's needs may potentially be different from hers! More relationships need this! 🙌🏻
This🥰
🧡🧡🧡🧡
So true !!! I am so happy for Christopher
I've never seen such a proud happy grin on Christoffer's face
he will have a good time going thru his storage.
He looks delighted to have a garage he can hangout in. My grandfather was that way as well. The garage was bigger than the house. He too used it for his business.
For real! He looks so happy!!!
I think Christopher looks so pleased @ being able to resume being separate/ productive with his life. Cecilia you two understand each others needs & mesh so well. Now, with your inspiration, I need to go declutter my laundry room. Jeanne ( Florida)
Christopher looks so happy to have his man cave:)
Could Christoffer's smile be any wider when he welcomes us to his man cave!!!!! So happy for both of you, such a satisfying accomplishment.
Omg, Christopher’s smile when he introduced his “Mancave”…priceless! I giggled with delight at his happiness…for both of you! Well done!
Never seen Christoffer smile so much in one video. He’s indeed happy with his mancave.
I was going to say the same thing ❤
My expectation:
*Garage door opens*
"Hi, I'm Christopher, welcome to my crib." LOL
$900 a month?!?!? $10,800 a year!?!?! For a storage facility?! Yikes!!!! BTW, my favorite part was when you found Cristoffer’s secret stash of polar bears for the ladies. What a playa.
I know right. That’s what I pay for rent for my apartment. 🤔 but I feel happy for him that he has his own space. That’s important.
Christoffer looks so happy when he's showing off his new man cave. How nice it'll be for him to have his space for hobbies and fixing and tinkering. If he ever takes us along to show off his hobbies, that'd be fun to watch. Such a charming and chill guy.
Love Christoffer's happy smiley face opening up the door at the end 😄
I laughed out loud when you literally found Christoffer’s “bag of tricks”! So look forward to Svalbard Sundays. Also - this is the funniest episode of Hoarders I’ve ever watched 😂. Greetings from the US.
Hahah 🧡
That was adorably hilarious 😂
I believe it's essential for individuals to have a dedicated personal space where they can freely engage in activities they enjoy, without feeling overwhelmed or encroached upon by external factors. I think this is wonderful, thank you for sharing the process.
😂 love the shot of the door raising to reveal Christopher looking super happy! the new space looks fantastic!❤
When my dad died, we discovered he had three storage units of “stuff.” Old crockpots, multiple/duplicate yard implements, every tool you could ever imagine, christmas decorations, etc. You could have opened a department store with all his stuff! The irony was his house was impeccable and simply decorated as he did not like clutter. Were we fooled!
My parents were secret hoarders in their basement- it was all stored in boxes and we did not find out until they had to move into assisted living. They literally saved EVERYTHING.
@@alisonsmith8653 People should get rid of all that stuff. People die and someone else has to deal with it. Usually it's the family, which puts more stress on top of the actual grieving. My family isn't as bad as some. But there's still a ton of stuff here that should have been gotten rid of decades ago. And it's not even stuff that can be sold or donated! Just... old junk. Who's going to get stuck dealing with it when my only parent left is dead? ME. I am filled with dread every time I think about it. It's not right. I would urge people, don't do this to your kids / other family members!
yes, I agree!! When my dad died at 96 years of age, he left us to clean up his house full of JUNK!! My brother was left his garage of tools? JUNK!! As most things had rusted etc over the years so he hired a truck to take it all away & only kept a few things that were still usable. Under the house ? again JUNK!! We filled three HUGE long skip bins with it all plus had a yard sale with things that were still usable. The thing is that by this time we were all in our late 60s & so it was a HUGE amount of work for us & took 10 days to completely clean out the house & then paint a couple of the rooms as well as getting repairs done as he had white ants climb into the walls because of him leaving things lying against the piers & creating a ladder for them. Thankfully, they hadn't been in there long but still it was more cost for us.
So as I now share a home with my daughter & family, there will not be a lot to clean up when I am gone. Before I sold my family home, then yes I had all my ex husbands junk plus things the kids had left behind for me to take care of as well as all the things that I had accumulated, so I was glad that I had dealt with all that when I did & now only have what treasures I really want around me, although having said that, I have accumulated a lot of crafting things as I scrap book as well as make cards to occupy my time. 🤣
@@Yesica1993 look up SWEDISH DEATH CLEANING. It's a thing and a woman wrote a book about it.
@@louisebrislane6607 Yikes. I don't have that much, but I do still want to pare down. I don't want whatever family members are left after I'm gone to have the burden of all that.
Holy organization Batman!! That was awesome! Christoffer looks so happy to have his own space for alllll the things. Can’t wait to see the beautiful knives he creates(should he decide to dive back in) I can’t believe how much stuff he packed into that tiny little shed. It was like a clown car 😂 the stuff just kept coming! Such a satisfying video. Thank you for sharing. I don’t feel so alone in my storage nightmare. 🥰
Hahah clown shed! 😂😂 There was a lot in there and I’m soooo happy to have it all organised finally 😊
26:24 This long segment of waiting for the garage door to fully open before being hit with a splendid welcome is my favorite part of this video. I love Christoffer.
Christoffer looks so, so proud of his space at the end when the storage room opens up and he’s standing there… love it!!!
"Hello, welcome to the man cave". I almost fell of my sofa. 😂😂😂 Christoffer, that made my day
😂😂😂 I just visualised you falling off your sofa 😂
I love the new space. I could see myself doing a lot of projects too. ❤😊
Don’t forget to add a mini kitchen for coffee maker, microwave or toaster oven, and water dispenser. You know when you are hungry but still want to complete your project before you leave. 👍🏽♥️🥰
Great idea!! 🤝🏻☀️😃
Yay. More stuff to buy with its own carbon footprint!
Christoffer was so happy once it was all put together! And Grim is having a great time
The bag of little Polar Bears made me laugh hysterically!! Love the shed. It needs a mini fridge!
😂😂😂
Same!!! 🤣. And Kristoffer's response...HYSTERICAL!!!!
*Christopher giving up on the couch cushion cover* I felt that. I *am* that. 😂🤣😂
😂 He put together ALL the furniture flawlessly but it was the cushion cover that got him 😂
Putting on fabric covers of _any_ kind is a nightmare for all men 😂
I love the smile on Christoffers' face when the door opened. He looks so happy. It was a huge job but now everything is usable. Congrats on the new truck as well. Hugs from Canada.
Christoffer looks so happy about his mancave! Good for him!
Christopher looks so proud and happy! It's adorable.
I undestand Cecilia's feeling about clutter lol, it's hard to understand other peoples treasures and its great you do.
God bless Christopher putting together all that ikea stuff!!
He was a beast!
He drew the line at putting the cushions in the covers though 😂😂
So is there anything Christoffer can’t do?! A handyman, an amazing chef and a great partner. Cecilia, you’ve found a gem.
That smile when he announced his man cave 💚💚. Every man’s dream! Congrats Christopher
I love that Christopher is a hard working man...
He gets it done!!!!
My husband recently passed away. We just cleaned out his two storage sheds. This video could have been made by me. Honestly, do men never throw anything away? Good thing we love them anyway.
It might be useful someday! And if we throw things away, we have to buy it again.
My dad is the exact opposite. He's a little too happy to throw away anything he doesn't see an immediate practical use for. 😅 Drives my mom batty.
So sorry about the loss of your husband
This!
No they never throw anything away. Or sell things so others can use it. It’s infuriating.
So pleased for Christoffer to have his man-cave! We all need space for our stuff and to potter around 😊 Looking forward to eventually seeing him getting into making knives!
There's something about a huge shed, garage, basement, or storage space that men need in their lives. And I can appreciate that bc I tend to take over the house. I'm glad you were able to find that space for him. I know he's excited and he'll have so much fun tinkering around, working on everything, and hanging out with his friends. He'll have everything in one spot and that's a nice feeling. You really get to enjoy everything like that too. Love it!
I love how Christoffer's whole face lights up when he smiles! It's wonderful! Thanks for the great videos, Cecilia! 💜
"Have you met, me? A month, I don't think so"!
🤣
It is deep within us men to save our treaures/junk. If we ever find an old bolt that we can reuse or a length of wire to make a quick electrical fix, we're hooked for life. I am happy Christoffer has a new home for his treasure for it is all, surely, treasure.
Christoffer looks so happy. You are an organizing tornado, Cecilia. Everything looks fantastic.
Hahaha organising tornado! Love that!! 😊😍🙌🏻
@@CeciliaBlomdahl 🤣😁
Awesome Man Cave. The twinkle in Christopher's eyes .... yeah, he will enjoy that place.
Grim’s reaction when you guys lifted the couch 😂
TERRIFIED hahah
My husband has a full house basement to hoard in. It does have a heated gym/bathroom, studio office, and work shop. Yet, it is so full! He is 72 and I do encourage him to start going thorough it to get rid of stuff not really needed. He loves to get rid of my things, yet not his. I do believe in the Swedish death cleaning, do not leave it to others to do after we die.
Love any video that Christoffer makes a longer appearance in! His presence is so calming.
Not them having a perfectly organized massive shed when I can't even keep a sock drawer organized! 😂
Love to relax to these videos!
I feel understood, lol!
The struggle is real
Kristoffer looks so joyful giving his tour at the end!
The best part of this video was seeing Christoffer's radiant smile in his man cave! He'll be so happy puttering around there.
WOW WOW WOW. OUTSTANDING JOB YOU GUYS !!! Love it when Christopher says “welcome to my man cave”. You can see he is thrilled with the outcome !!!!!!
I don't know if I've ever seen Christoffer look so pleased. Great work!
I love you Cecilia but it is nice to have a Christoffer video. I love his energy calm and confident.
Cristoffer looks so happy with his man cave! It really looks amazing and useful, nice job!
I love Grimm smiling at the end of the video!
The age île struggle for women: striking a balance between throwing everything out and respecting their need to hold on to everything because, “ I might need that someday. “
Ah yes a Cecilia video and morning coffee, I don’t think there’s a more appropriate combination.
coffee cheers☕✨
I love the man cave/storage unit! I see Christoffer getting a ton of stuff done there with Grim taking long naps on that sofa when he goes to “work” with dad. Love this for y’all!
After 40 yrs of marriage, my husband is in the process of building his man cave!! He is doing it all himself, and the roof went on today. He is so excited! Great video, congratulations Christopher!!❤🤗
Christopher is so comfortable on camera now! It's great. What a job you guys took on! But it turned out so good
The Man cave is EpiK! And the question is... Where did you even keep all of that before?! A full Warehouse of stuff?! Wow. I'm so happy for Christoffer, He will be so happy here!
OK, that's what I'm wondering. The new space is VERY VERY FULL! Where the heck was all that stuff before? Anyway this seems like a perfect addition to your little cabin empire👍
@@AlizarinCrimsonClovis @nadinekore6308 and they didn't even show us what they got rid of!!!!!
He is so happy with his space. I’m sure he will enjoy it greatly.
Grim has a second home! I bet he’ll be there quite often with Christopher ❤ Pls don’t stop filming when Christopher is busy there with his hobby. Would love to see and also when he fixes his work bench ❤
Congrats on the new storage/garage space! You definitely needed it! Getting organized always feels so good! I don’t think I’ve seen Christoffer smile so big as when he introduced his man cave. So happy for you two!!! 😊
Wow! Talk about the ultimate Spring cleaning project.
This video is honestly ALL my favourite things: Decluttering and organisation, Cecilia showing us Svalbard life and Grimm on the sofa...Happy Sunday ❤ Please show the reorganisation with the new space at home ❤
This video brought me Joy. I hate hoarding. Christopher is happy as little boy having his own playground 😁
Love how happy Christoffer is with his man cave. ❤ And that story about the polar bear key chain cracks me up 😂
Such a happy Grim! You and Christoffer are so cute together….totally LAUGHED when you called him an Old Man Hoarder!!!
What a blessing to see you support each other. The pay off when you see him welcome us to the man cave was beyond heart warming! Congrats on this achievement. Looking forward to your next endeavour!! 💓 & grims so lucky!! A new environment to thrive in!! 💓
Thought this was going to be a really boring video watching a shed being put up, but it actually turned out to be quite interesting and satisfying....Also, our city (Cathedral city) is one of the best cities also for recycling. We recycle paper goods, metal, food containers, plastic, electronics of course, junk mail, and they just started having us do a special compost of food scraps that we have a special container for. Love it! And helping the environment
The shed looks so nice! And Grim is like a Teddy Bear that barks...so cute!
Oh Christoffer looks so happy and proud of his new man cave. Such a nice space to go to where he can putter around and sort through all his stuff.
How awesome for you guys that this space became available!! It's storage + a work room/ man cave for Christopher. $900 is a steal (and you can write it off as a business expense). Love this!
Cecilia and Christoffer are wonderful dog parents to such a good boy!! 🐶 Love introducing Grim to "his" new couch!! 😍
Love his smile when he opened the door at the end!! And we all knew you’d knock out the organizing fast!
Congratulations Christopher! You deserve to have the space to have everything laid out just the way you want it. And it will free up your cabin for both of you. That’s so exciting. 🙌🏻
First time to see Christoffer smiling so happily
This is your best episode yet! Looking forward to seeing what Christoffer does with his man cave.
Christopher is very Happy!! Look at that big smile 😅
SO happy for Christoffer to have his new space!
The smile on Christophers' face is just priceless ❤😅 love his "mancave"
The garage door revealing Christoffer slowly, killed me 😂
This is the most relaxed and natural Christopher has looked and spoken!
Looks beautiful! Congratulations on your new additional storage and work space. It will be life-changing for both of you!
I think so too! 😊
Christoffer is SO CUTE!🥰 I love seeing him talking on here as much as I love seeing you!! You 2 are a gorgeous couple🥰🥰
That video was both deeply satisfying (cleaning/organizing) and also deeply triggering (putting together IKEA furniture). 😂❤️
Omg "hello, welcome to my man cave" is very Bond-like: "The name is Mancave. Christoffer's Mancave." And Cecilia giggling in the background is 😂. Congrats, Christoffer!
😂😂😂😂😂
This was so much fun! Christopher's smile at the end...priceless. Now I am going to approach one of my junk areas.
Christopher looks quite pleased with his new space. 😂😍
Christopher the charmer with all the stuffed polar bears!!
Yes, it’s so satisfying to watch a space buildup like that. Thanks for a good thing to watch.
He looks so happy! :D
Christopher’s hoarding shed looks like my garage right now- I wish I had your enthusiasm for organising Cecilia!!
Christoffer saying ‘hello and welcome to my man cave’ was seriously so funny. 😂
You know they are working hard when the jackets come off!
We have the Munster football final today in Ireland. County Kerry are playing County Clare. It's a nice sunny day, and there's warmth from the sun. The birds are singing in the morning, and the leaves are on the trees. Have a good week Cecilia and Cristoffer.
Sounds beautiful! Greetings from Nova Scotia, Canada 🇨🇦
What a fabulous space for Christopher!! An organized person’s dream space!
so glad that 'little itch' has been taken care of. Right place, right time magic. Christoffer, don't forget to hang up a clock, as man-cave time will not register. 🗜🔨🔧
He looks so happy! Yay for his man cave!! Hope his space works well for all those mechanical endeavors.. that are never ending.
The video clip of the ocean outside your cabin is so lovely. Your world is a synergy of all of these striking visual elements. It is an amazing contrast between the untamed natural world and the cozy warmth of your cabin home. I admire your creative and organizational skills as well as your strength and resourcefulness. You have carved out an extraordinary life against the backdrop of a rugged, natural world which is resplendent with awe inspiring wonder.
I was waiting for Cecilia's video 🥳 watching from Switzerland ❤
Hope you enjoy it! :):)
@@CeciliaBlomdahl always 🫶
He is SOOOOO HAPPY!! I'VE NEVER seen him so happy. This melts my heart :) awesome video... "quick decisions" :)
