OMG the drone shots with the gorgeous golden light and the wind streaming the snow over the landscape are just awe-inspiring ❤️

Tusen takk, Cecilia, for your informative and beautiful videos from Svalbard, and this episode is one of the most gorgeous clips of yours. My ties to the archipelago are more "spiritual" though, never having been there in my life, but watching them gives me a sense of orientation as if I'd see clips from my nicest travel. Amazing.

I COULD NOT go 4 months without sun.

That looks like a wonderful place to visit. Greetings from Brazil!

Cannot get over how FAST Grimm is!! (and the cheek for cutting you off!)

When did people settle svalbard? I mean it must have been impossible to live there before the invention of electricity. At least permanently, you would have to leave before winter.

oh hello sun :)

so gorgeous, that drone shot was breathtakingly beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing.

Wow yes the drone footage with the long shadows!

I was today years old when I learned to just stuff my sleeping bag. I’ve spent so many years of angst rolling it. Thanks for the life lesson!!

I would LOVE to visit this place in winter. Are they coming some tourists for experience this long darks days?

I'm from sunny Arizona, we have more than 320 days of sun in the year. Love your videos and your lives are fascinating, kudos to you for loving the Arctic cold. When it dips to 50 degrees here we get cold. I couldn't make it without sun and gardening, even here in Phoenix we have trees everywhere, and cactus, and a few rattle snakes on the hiking trails when it's hot, lol. The beauty of Svalbard with it's majestic snowy landscape is wonderful.

Soooo beautiful!

I live in Poland. I can understand you very well when the sun is comming back. In Poland most part of winter days are cloudly and when spring is comming... you have not words to describe the joy and the bright colours. So nice to see you again. Keep safe.

Simply lovely ....

Thanks a lot 😊

Spectacular scenery! Thanks for sharing

Loved this video so much 💙 Question, do you have to take Vitamin D supplements since you don’t have any daylight for 4 months of the year?

Trots att jag ”lider” av en synskada som ger mörkerblindhet så är detta ställe min dröm.

The drone shots are amazing! I love that I can travel thru your videos all the way from Florida. 😂😂

It is crazy that polar bears can attack cabins. Never knew that!

If they want to get inside for some reason, they will walk through walls quite literally 🙈

Cecilia Blomdahl

Yeah!! I always film in 4k so I don't know why I didn't post it in 4k! :D So most videos will be 4k from now on 😍 Glad you noticed 😍

Really interesting! You've got a new subscriber 😊

Thanks and welcome!! 😍😍😍

4 months in the dark is insane !

Magnificent video! It’s easy to forget that Grim is a super hero in his own climate! Quite the worker and always (nearly) loving to be outdoors.🐾Your footage of the sun really showed how emotional it is to be reunited with a lost friend!😊😎☀️

🤩🤩🤩 haha yeah Grim is in his right elements here! 😍

Everything about your life just fascinates me. It's such a lovely way to live ~ away from the strife of crazy city life. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful piece of your life with us!

I'm so happy you enjoy my videos! 😍

Rab - a wonderful British label, good choice 😁👍🏼. I’ll be visiting there in September, can’t wait 😁😁😁

What a beautiful trip and location where the cabin is!!!

Hi Cecilia! Been watching your videos for about 4 months now! Save them for my days off to watch with my morning coffee! Your life is such an adventure! You must take such pride in your editing work as it's fantastic! And when those drone shots came up today I was almost overwhelmed! So beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Please could you teach us some Norwegian (if that is your first language). Take care. =)

I'm telling my grandkids this is Anna and Kristoff lol but seriously love the channel!

could you make a video about your video equipment, camera, drone, editing, etc? Many thanks!

Amazing video! Thank you! Rab makes a great down jacket too. My favorite under layer for -5F ski days in NH USA

This is fantastic ! Thank you

Well that was SUPER FUN!!!!

Amazing and beautiful!!!!!

Svalbard is stunning in the sunshine and you capture it so well. What a videographer/photographer’s dream to see it, especially after all those months without. It must be a boost to your spirits.

Hi Cecilia! Great video. Could you make a video talking about the cost of living in Svalbard? (Food, water, gasoline, etc)

Lovely dog I think he wants to be tied to a sleigh, I think it can be good feeling for him

Wow!! You guys are amazing. I lived in Alaska for 3 years but this is beyond anything i have ever seen.

The gold sun on the ice, and all the blue tones, it makes the area look like a Maxfield Parrish painting.

Hello from California! Your sun shots are beautiful.I appreciate your cold-weather gear. I'm freezing in 50F, I realize because I dont dress for the weather, like a dum-dum wear light clothing year-round and depend on "air conditioning." But I imagine I would pay more attention if my life depended on it. Thanks for a great channel!

Amazing video 🌞

Just came upon your videos today, I really found them beautifully entertaining. I live in Wisconsin where it was very cold this winter.. not like yours tho..where did you learn to speak such good English? enjoy the sun :)

beautiful drone footage!

We LOVE Grim!!!!

Jäklar vad fint Cia! Grymma drönarbilder!

What a views! What a light! What a colours!

Hey Cecilia, this is your best video yet. At about 11:20, the ground snow into the sun on the horizon is so special. Keep up the great work. I keep inviting people to your channel, and I often get thanks back for the tip. I'm curious; are you speaking Swedish or Norwegian when you talk to Grim? Would love to visit Svalbard someday!

I feel you, I haved the same feeling 4 days ago :))

The dron shots are amaaaazing! They are totally breath taking! And Grim running reminded me so much of dolphins swimming in front of a boat 😂 He is so cute 🥰

How much does it cost to live there? What currency do they use. Are you American?

:)

Sol! Stort hurra!

Grim living his best life! His joy makes me smile so much. Your videos are amazing. Thank you.

your video is really awesome . love

Det verkar som en bra tid att äta kötbullar och potatis efter sådan skoterresa!

Your shots are amazing, they get better and better, you're very talented Ps. I love seeing Grim living his best life ❤️

Cecilia, you have many beautiful drone shots in your videos so far...but seriously, those snowmobile shots at the end of this video 😯😍 my jaw was on the floor. Goosebumps! Just stunning and the music could not be more of a perfect match. Thank you so much ❤

Gorgeous golden light.... and Grim!!!

Absolutely amazing! Thank you for sharing!

WHOA! The drone shots were amazing!!

superb video !!!

It was nice seeing Grimm run.

1:50 what music is this? :)

oh and this too 10:50 :) those sunset colors on the snow are insaaaane

Why is there metal wire outside the cabin, also against polar bears? Love this episode and the joy of first light

Why your boyfriend never showed on camera. He should have his own experience to share.

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

That drone shot was fantastically beautiful!!! Got tears in my eyes. Thanks!!!

Welcome the Sun! ☀️ Thank you for another amazing video! Loved to watch Grimm enjoy the sunshine and the run through snow land. Breathtaking! Hope to return to Svalbard one Spring or Autumn, either to welcome or to say goodbye to the sun. Have a wonderful week ahead! And as always stay safe. 🐾☀️🤍

Nobody forced you to live on the Nordpole! 🤣

Can you get a sunburn in Svalbard?

Awesome and breathtaking.

Breathtaking views.

So sweet ...you are Grim playing! Welcome back sunshine 🌅

Would polar bears chase a moving object like your snow mobiles? The good thing I would imagine about using drones is that you scout out polar bears in front of you, and possibly cracks in the ice too?

After 20 sec. I got a scratch in my ear by that voice...

Hey, Cecilia! Firstly, I wanted to thank you for the work you put in creating such great quality and informative content! Secondly, I was wondering if you could answer two questions I have after watching this video: - why is it not recommended to stop while driving over a glacier? Are there any risks of ice collapsing underneath? - is it more comfortable to have a snowmobile for each of you or is it actually impossible for a second person to ride as a passenger on a snow mobile? Take care and keep up the good work you do! ☺️

Seriously so magical. That drone shot with the blowing snow and the sun took my breath away. Thank you for sharing this with all of us !!!

Make sure to get tan😊 you had a beautiful day. May you have more days like it!

"Here comes the sun, here comes the sun and I say...", The Beatles! I can't stop signing, lol Grim is the luckiest fur baby in the world. Christopher rides the Best snowmobile in the world! The SKIDOO!

When I drive home I deal with pothole. You have glacier cracks.

Waking up to one of our last cold mornings in Ottawa (-20) and loving your video, the cold doesn’t bother me but I can’t imagine going without sun for 4 months, its nice and sunny here and going to take our dogs out!

Thank you. You make my day relaxing every time you upload. A little bit of dreaming and enjoying nature and your adventures. Thank you for taking us with you. Greetings from the Netherlands

I saw the sun once.

How nice to see you have sunshine 🌞again! Do you also have a vet on the island? Just thinking about Grimm. Do you take extra vitamins during the winter?

Woohoooo! Happy Sun-day (literally!)

TIL, I take having sun everyday for granted,

Hi Cecilia, interesting to see Grim has his own little cart attached to the snowmobile as on other videos his only running next to you. How many of the 80km does he run by himself? Does he have the cart because its so far or because of safety (glacier) or when its extremely cold? Enjoy the sun!

Cecilia Blomdahl

Maand geleden

Yeah I got him a "sluffe" 😍 It is mostly for his safety and comfort when we go on longer trips because my current snowmobile has such a narrow seat! He runs for a few kilometers now and then along our trip. I would say he does about 10km in total on a longer trip, with a few stops 😊

Your Dog ♥️ So beautiful there!

Best of the Best! - them all videos till now...

That was fun! Thanks for the ride!

Your joy at the new Sun is very infectious. Living in Southern Europe I guess we take it very much for granted, but your clear blue skies and general scenery are truly stunning.

Looks like you had a magical weekend!

It really was! 🤩🤩

OMG ... the moments when Grim was running next to you on the road, looked back at you, sometimes slipping across in front of your sled, it was pure freedom itself. And when you sent up the drone and we saw the wind chasing the snow on the snow field and the whole landscape rippled and the horizon flashed in divine colors ... it was simply so overflowing that I had to cry ... it was the catharsis of my day, so I am very grateful for it.
