  • Here above the Arctic Circle, It's so fascinating to see the transition from dark to light. It’s so nice to have the sun back again enjoy the last moments when its possible to see the Northern lights. Snow comes and goes, birds begin to return, and nature slowly comes alive again.
    In this video, I show you a little bit of our life in the North, and I show you the renovation of our old Scandinavian Farmhouse. We started with the floor and the kitchen!
    Lots of Love from the North,
    Carmijn.

    Music from ( Epidemic sound )
    🍁🍁🍁
    Under her artist name Red Leaf Hill, Carmijn Bakker creates a language of warmth and affection, with songs that address human relationships, nature, motherhood, overcoming and wanderlust.
    Her music applies a range of influences: the intimacy of alternative country/folk laced with widescreen splendor of contemporary pop.
    As a musician, songwriter, and filmmaker, Carmijn has held a long-cherished dream of living in the heart of nature. “For me nature is magical. It's healing and creates a feeling of total freedom. A feeling of peace. When I’m surrounded by big mountains and long rivers, I feel free. The sunlight on my skin, swimming in the cold water. When I close my eyes, words and melodies arise. “
    In the spring of 2022, she moved with her partner and son from her native Netherlands to the North of Norway. Between tall mountains, long rivers, and endless forests, she quickly learned living in nature is both hard work and awe-inspiring.
    For Carmijn, Red Leaf Hill is as much about sharing as it is expressing, through her own means and by seeking out collaborators who travel a similar wavelength. On her RUclips channel, she’s garnered a steady following in her journeys across the Norwegian wilderness. To be an open book, where struggle, joy, fear, and courage are laid bare for all to see. As clear even as the brightest skies themselves. to my RUclips Channel! My name is Carmijn and my artist name is Red Leaf Hill. One year ago I moved together with my family to the North Norwegian countryside to start a life close to nature.r of our entry which turned out into a warm and cosy place

Dat moet nog even wachten maar ik kan gelukkig alvast met jullie meegenieten....heel leuk! En wat een heerlijk groot aanrecht heb je zo, dat wordt genieten straks als de keuken af is. Tusen takk og hilsen fra Nederland!

    Reminds me of the kitchen I put together in a house in PA some years ago - watching you maneuvering the cabinets into place made me smile & brought back all those memories. I did mine all by myself, propping the wall cupboards up on books & other things until they were where I wanted them & then screwing into place - pretty funny when I think about it, but I have always been a can-do person ! Enjoy your new kitchen, it will be worth every aching back & accidentally hammered finger ! A lovely place to live !

    How wonderful to be witnessing the Northern Lights so regularly. The house is coming along nicely, the kitchen is starting to take shape. I think there’s every possibility of moving in during the summer. Your part of the world looks very beautiful, it’s amazing just how snow can clothe the countryside and create such beautiful shapes. I look forward to see just what the spring melt reveals to us.❤

    You seem to do everything in slow motion. If you continue at this speed, the work will be finished in 2050. Since there are young children, maybe it is better to get help and finish as soon as possible. Don't you think so?
