  • A simpler life, closely connected to the ocean, the sky, and the forces of nature - and ourselves. This is the first episode of a series dedicated to describing and showing life on a remote Arctic island, off the coast of northern Norway. Here we get introduced to the landscape in Myken, and we touch upon some issues that will be explored more in later videos. If you harbor a secret dream of getting away from all the stress and living a simpler life in beautiful surroundings, this just might be the right thing for you...

    I found you through SV Uma. Fascinating content and not-too-bad editing. Greetings from the piedmont of Georgia, USA, where we occasionaly enjoy a finely crafted whisky. As Dan and Kika have often said, "Not in a hurry to go anywhere. Ever." If the rest measure up to this one, or as is often the case practice makes better (never perfect,) I patiently await your future efforts.

    Absolutely Splendid! ~ Wide awake after midnight and hailing from Vegas here 👋🏼 ..
    I sure would enjoy a brisk hike like that for a change! And wouldn’t mind a working vacation either! Looking for a temp @the distillery by any chance? I’m in catering…Maybe need some help in the restaurant in summertime? 😊

    thank you to Kika and Dan for taking us to Myken on SV Uma. They are absolutely the best. Your island, your home is so beautiful. After their visit I wanted to know more about your daily life. I'm so happy you have started your channel to show us more. I have subscribed. Norway is a amazing land.

    Married to an old Danish viking and being Scottish myself the lure of a wee dram has put Myken on our bucket list.
    Looks wonderful, maybe one day we can sail the very very very long way there.
    Great video, thankyou SO much and thanks to Uma, keep them coming Uma.

    Congratulations on your brand new channel! Great video. Myken is definitely on my bucket list of places to visit. I like a good whisky (single malt), I like quiet- as in little traffic noise at night and I like people with big dreams and visions. :)

    I am really fascinated by the positive and calm vibes there. Is there a way to live and work on Myken? I would do any job. Greetings from Germany

    • @roarlarsen
      @roarlarsen 3 года назад +2

      A sea lover sounds like just the right person! :-) It is definitely easiest to live in Myken for those who can take their job with them, or create their own. But it is also likely that the distillery will hire more people in the year to come, and there may be positions for seasonal work with the places offering accommodation or food. It may be a good idea to seek out all pages having to do with Myken on Facebook and Instagram, and follow these to see any opportunities. And it is also a good idea to come and visit, and see if you like it in person - when traveling (hopefully soon) becomes possible again.

      @@roarlarsen Thank you for the response. I am currently a student (23 years old) and 100% convinced that I don't want to spend my entire adulthood in a crowded city within a system chasing false ideals. I will reach out to every channel I can find and come up with a plan to perhaps create a job.

      Thanks! Yes, there are about 40 houses, most of them still owned by descendants of the original families from way back, and almost all are used regularly as holiday homes.
