- The first snow has fallen here on Svalbard which means that winter is just around the corner! I head into Longyearbyen to show you guys a bit more of the village, and also sort out and speed clean the entire cabin. VERY satisfying!

“Cozy”, “Coffee”, “Beautiful”, “Grim”. Most used words in Cecelia’s videos. 😄
hahah 100% 😍
I believe they have been used in the one sentence multiple times also :-)

And "Oh my God"!!!😀

Grim is such a little character. He never fails to make me smile. Your cabin looks very cozy and ready for the winter.
Im a new subscriber love your content and one thing I really appreciate is that you credit the creators of your audio content. So often youtubers dont do this and I really feel that it is an oversight because the audio adds so much to the viewers experience of the videos and not to credit the incredible talent of these creators is terrible so thankyou for that. :)
I love how you described the galaxy, most of my friends just don’t understand how close and clear the sky gets far away from the cities. It’s like you can jump in ❤️
It really is! It feels like the stars are SO close and they are everywhere, all the way down to the horizon! 🧡⭐️
Ah one thing I would point out is winter is the worst time in the Northern Hemisphere for viewing the Milky Way. During winter the earth's nighttime skies are oriented in opposition to the galactic center. In any case, the Arctic is one of the worst places to view the Milky Way even in summer, both because of round the clock daylight and the fact that the core in Sagittarius is either at or beneath the southern horizon. If spectacular views of the galaxy is what you seek, winter in the Southern Hemisphere is by far the best. Still there is lot's to see in northern fall/winter skies like the Andromeda and Triangulum galaxies.
I’m always amazed when you mention the first sunset or the last sunrise, it just shows that with all the climate changes on the planet we still have the steadiness of the universe around us.
I love how your home is airy, modern , but cozy all the same, it's the best combo!
Are you the only person on the planet who can make housework into an entertaining video. The colours of Svalbard are beautiful.
I love the way you and Christopher have separate duvets it makes so much sense that you don’t have to share and fight over one
It is very much a Scandinavian norm and I LOVE it. We don't have one big one here and I can't imagine having to share one?! 😂
I was going to comment that the timelapse of organizing/cleaning was so satisfying to watch and then realized it's right in the title!
😍😍😍 I love watching speed cleaning so I'm glad you also enjoyed it!
I like the "worst room". I imagine being a guest in Cecilia's house for a week, and sleeping in that room. 💜 🤍
The shot of your cabin and the northern lights appearing slowly above could be one of those 10-hour-falling-asleep videos. It’s lovely.
Can't describe how beautiful this place is, the scenery, the house, the interior, the weather, the dog, and the first snow. For someone who live without snow all year long, this is everything. Thank you for this beautiful video, love every bit o fit.💗💗💗
So excited for all the cozy polar night content that is on the way! I can’t wait to see how you decorate your beautiful new home for Christmas, when it comes round! 💕❄️🕯
YAAAY! I'm also so excited! 😍🧡 Can't wait to decorate for Christmas either!
Your house is so organized and functional! I especially like all the windows and how you added string lights to the rooms.
Sunsets are a glimpse of heaven....Cleaning is a passion of mine..I even went onboard with Merry Maids in Maryland years ago which I loved. Started being a Mom and housewife in 1975 so cleaning is perfected after 46 years. Instant gratification. I had the Royal push vacuum and hung out all our clothing. Planning weekly meals and purchasing all the food. I had one full day for all the families ironing. Kept a tight ship with love for all 24/7. Nothing like being a home decorator also to make it all cozy. There's no place like home...no matter where you live.....and always enjoy the scenery out one's windows..;)
I reall'ty don't know how I found you, but I can't
stop watching!
Grim is the reason I watch your videos!
I love how you are always so happy no matter the weather and you see the beauty in all of your surroundings. I live in sunny Florida and can’t bear the thought of 24 hours of darkness for months. 🌞🌑🌚
Opening shots of this video are STUNNING with all the fall colors on the tundra 😍 and of course Grim is stunning as well
Cecilia, I am watching this episode for the first time, about a year after you filmed it! And I loved it! I love how you and Grim enjoy thd change of seasons! Although you are quite obviously very different from where I live in The Mid-Atlantic Region of The United States, like us, you too enjoy the change of seasons! I am very much in love with our change of seasons as well!
And yes, there is always housework to do! I enjoy doing it as well!
I always chuckle when you put different clips on fast forward! I have been watching your channel for several months now and have fallen in love with all of you and with your country of Svalbard and your town of Longyearbyen! Have a great day!
The colors this time of year is absolutely beautiful in Svalbard. Your home is so beautiful and comfy. Love seeing Grim and you
The colours are SOO vibrant and strong this time of year! 🧡🧡 Thank you for watching!
You have SUCH a beautiful home now. I ❤️ the fluffy butterfly chair with the epic fluffy pouf.
Bathroom looks great. The best bank of kitchen and living room windows, so you can watch whales off your back porch. Life is good!
The orange green of the tundra in the afternoon sunlight is beautiful ☺️
As I watch this I’m feeling inspired to make my bed 😂
Your videos are so soothing! Thank you for being a quiet peaceful part of a otherwise noisy and super busy day.
I really love the begining shots of fall in Svalbard. Wow, so beautiful.
The back of Grims head is so fluffy and cute❤️❤️
I just found your you tube channel, I’m absolutely fascinated by this part of the world, that it actually exists!
There is some outstanding imagery in this video. Well done Cecilia. Your videos are always a treat to watch.
Thank you so much 😍
Cecilia’s favorite word: beautiful.
100% 👏🏻👏🏻
I found the speed cleaning to be fascinating, strangely soothing and yet it motivated me to go clean my bathrooms so THANK YOU!
You always motivate me but especially when you clean. I'm like you that I need my environment to be clean and tidy in order to focus and just feel calm.
The cabin is looking fabulous! I love everything about it
Your videos always make me long to experience a year in that place. I love the ocean, the stars, the lights and the quiet. It seems like such a perfect place.
Beautiful home, beautiful Grim but the bathroom drawers that light up on opening are something else , I love them! Xxx
Cecilia you should do a full wall of linen curtains and add your beautiful photos to create a sort of art gallery type of vibe for your movie room. I have seen it done before and its perfect!
Jag kommer ifån Skottland och jag vill säga det jag älskar att se dina videor. Jag har lärt mig norska och svenska och jag kan inte vänta att åka till Svalbard snart! Väldigt vackart :)
It’s always that first dusting of snow that starts our excitement. Saw your forecast. Snow🎉
😍😍😍
Breathtaking scenery, and some amazing speed-cleaning. I'm in love with Grim.
I realised today while watching the video that your channel is the ultimate escapism...so calm and cosy I love it x
The orange tundra is everything 😍😍
The music, the scenery, it's all just just breathtaking! The "Hygge" cabin, too
Watching from Washington, D.C. Thanks for this view into your home.
So sweet and lovely ... seeing Grim smiling when he comes to you!
The scenic photos are so magical and poetic! The snow-dusted mountain view from your office desk (16:18)... I was in awe of them. I see them all the time in the background of your videos, but not at that angle; it really portrayed the hugeness of them. I mean, I understand that all the mountains in Svalbard are monumental but I can't really comprehend/grasp the true scale. I really hope to visit someday and then I will be able to fully appreciate their beauty. Thank you for sharing your part of the world!
Saw a new video posted and stopped my "speed" cleaning to take a break and watch your first snowfall vid. Music, landscape, Grim and your beautiful new home FABULOUS. Just love your posts. Doggie loves to Grim🐕
Yes! Polar Nights are on the way, can't wait 🤗, stunning vlog ✨ 😍 💕
What a fun video! Everything is beautiful this time of year. Grim is so adorable and fluffy! Brave and fearless, unless it's the robo vacuum! My Border Collie gets so excited when you talk to Grim 🤣. Thank you for sharing your beautiful country with us. Best regards 💕🐶
Love to see a new vlog.
Busy bee there Cecilia. Love the speeded up cleaning. Very nice job. Grim is looking good. Waiting for his winter coat to grow out. About 86 degrees here but that is perfect. I can't take the cold anymore. Loved it when I was a kid. I can enjoy it through your vlogs. Enjoy your week. It is Wednesday here. Till next time.
I love that you guys have polar night. The first polar night video from last year is one of my favorites.
Greetings from Nova Scotia!🇨🇦 your positive outlook on life and nature is inspiring! Thanks for sharing the North with us.
So so beautiful. First snow is always magic.
The cozy content I needed in my life 🍂 I look forward to your videos every week!
Such an amazing and beautiful video, als always of course! I'm looking for some lovely winter footage!
And the cleaning time lapse was so satisfying haha :D
Absolutely love the view of your day, your town, first snow and the music! Cecelia, I look forward to your videos the most! Grim seems happy to welcome the snow. How I wish I had such a nightsky view…all those stars and the northern lights! 😍
Thank you for giving us such great delight!
I just took family to an airport to send off to their next destination. Before her I had a couple with me. All in total I had people visit me for the pay 7 weeks. I could hardly wait to degerm, wash bedding and clean clean clean….while I carried my phone around and watched you clean😅
How lovely to wake up and find a new video from Cecilia :) I watch with a big cup of tea 🇬🇧and a smile 😊 thank you
After watching this, I’m inspired to put on a nice music and clean my house ❤️
Thanks for the tour of your new home! So cozy and beautifully decorated - love it, girl!
Speed clean was hysterical and you did such a good job. Is it in the blood of all Scandinavians to have such clean design and coziness? I think so! Curious, will your family come to the cabin and see the new addition? Hugs to adorable, beautiful Grim.
Snow already! What a beautiful, amazing place is Svalbard! ❤
Such a lovely way to start my day. Seeing Grim just put a big smile on my face. Thank you for such wonderful video :)
I just really love this whole video. Grim reminds me of my dear departed dog Binah. She had that same joyful energy. She was half Samoyed.
The autumn colours are gorgeous!!!!
Thank you for this video. I love the open space concept !! The kitchen is the best !! I love your kitchen !! Great view !! You truly has girl power !! 🤘🔛
saw Grim's floofy neck for a few seconds. my day is complete 😁
Yes do a speed clean please. It’s great. I need motivation xx
I love your videos Ive been watching a lot for the last two weeks. Your videos are so calming and beautiful! Cant wait to visit Svalbard :-)
Love your videos.
Chistopher is so authentic, nice man. So accepting and chilled of what u do Cecelia, allowing us all into your lives. Grimm v v cute.
Oh wow , we are going for the indian summer for the next up coming days! Svalbard looks so beautiful now..
.... You are very wise to choose to live there! Such a peaceful place.... Thank you for sharing this beauty! 🤗
You can do that often, when the houses clean you have lot of positive energy home!!!!!
Så himla underbart ni bor!! Älskar dina fina videos.Stor kram!
Love how you decorated the new part of your house!
What a Bautiful home
Watching you clean, and I think what the heck so I started too and kept the video running. Thanks for the motivation.
You are making appreciate winter! I love learning about Svalbard from your vlogs! Thank you it’s beautiful there!
Cecilia, Grim will not come in while he's on patrol!☺. I grew up in a place where I could sky watch. Now I live with light pollution. I'd love to have that again. I've learned something. Building colors. Very nice.
I know I have said this before, but Svalbard is beautiful. I hope to visit some day.
Thanks for the tour around town and for explaining the design history. It's great that you filmed there just as the snow started. Please give Grim a stroke from me!
Breathtaking landscapes. Your drone work and editing is incredible. Thank you for letting us watch the speed clean!!!
The landscape bathed in autumn light is truly breathtaking! Whoo - I wish housework went that fast - lol!
Watching your videos is always so peaceful and calming. Thanks for sharing the wonderful views accompanied by relaxing music.
I just discovered your channel and it is so cozy and calm. Love to watch more in the future!
I love the fact that you so unconsciously switch from American accented English to Norwegian Cecilia without a pause between the languages....a skill I would love to acquire...
I'm actually speaking Swedish when I switch over 😍
@@CeciliaBlomdahl oh no I'm so sorry...and I have been to Sweden too and have Swedish Friends...how remiss of me..🤣Many Apologies Cecilia
It feels wonderful to tidy up, doesn’t it?! You did a great job, but I’m exhausted from watching. 😁 Love watching your beautiful change of seasons.
I just love sweet cuddly Grimm. I think it is so amazing that you and Christopher get to enjoy the beauty that some will never know. I'd give anything to be able to see the night skies with billions of stars. Don't get that where I live (suburbs of San Francisco in Walnut Creek). Most night we can see Orion and couple other bright stars.
Can't wait to see the snow transform the landscape.... and the adventures of Grimm of course.
SNOW! I’m a fan of the snow, and I’m living vicariously through you. 😁
Thank you so much for the polar night's that you have captured😍
Great timing. Am staying at a vacation place near lake Tahoe on a mountain top 2300 meters elevation and the clouds are rolling in for what may be the first dusting of snow Thursday night. Love your videos.
Yay for the first snow! Always exciting
Hi Cecilia!
Great video again and the fall colors of the tundra are soooo beautiful!
Thanks for the info about the building colors in Longyearbyen❤️
I'm happy you also found the info about Longyearbyen houses interesting, I thought it was quite cool how well they match the autumn season 😍
Great job on the cleaning up, Cecilia👏 That was a workout in itself!
So cute to hear Grim barking😊
And you’ve inspired me to go shopping at IKEA (UK) - your stuff is so beautiful.
😍😍 It was sweaty!! haha Yaay, I LOVE IKEA, there is so much amazing stuff there for such good prices! :):)
It's amazing. I think one must be very brave to live in such a place!
The majestic scenery is so beyond imaginable! Thank you, Cecilia and Grimm for this video, and bringing it to us. Your footage is cute of you doing your housework. Well done! Looks super cozy and modern. Cheers, from NYC! 🤗👋
I always check daily weather forecast in Longyearbyen so i new it was coming ❄ ...i thought how exciting Cecilia will show us soon first snow!
And here it is! TAK very much Cecilia 😊
Sabrina 🇨🇵 🇬🇧
I just love your videos, Cecelia.
I’m mid cooking dinner but it can wait for this video!!!
I absolutely loved the domesticity of this video!!! The speed cleaning was awesome!! Thanks for sharing!
That little snowfall reminds me of my first in Canada a few years ago - half the sky was clear blue but it was lightly drifting down, I was in a Walmart carpark, and I absolutely lost my mind. I love love love snow 💗
Fall is my favorite time of year….
