The polar night snow storms have arrived in full force on Svalbard! There is always something extra wild about high winds and snowfall, when there is no daylight. We do our best to prepare the cabin, but still wake up to freezing temperatures! Thank you so much for being here and I hope you enjoy the video! Merry Christmas 🌟☕️

    I love how you were like “I don’t think we want to go out” and Grim was just like “I heard ‘go out’” 😂😂
  • You inspired my New Year's resolution for 2023. Go outside and embrace the weather each day no matter what it is. I spend way too much time indoors.

    Dear Cecilia. Thank you for sharing. One of my ancestors, Theodor Lerner, was actually a journalist and polar Explorer. He let various expeditions to Svalbard. He spent the polar Night of 1907 in a small wooden Cabin at Cap Boheman with Hjalmar Johansen who had participated a few years earlier in the famous North Pole Expedition of Nansen. Unfortunately, I have still not managed to Visit. Greetings from Germany!

    I am totally amazed at how you not only survive but thrive in this “ hostile environment “. Totally amazing.
  • Best part of the day is getting a notification that Cecilia uploaded a new video 🥰❄️

    THIS is what I imagine when I think of living in Svalbard… harsh conditions. Obviously you deal with it for a small part of the year but I’m so grateful your content has shown me the other 90% of your realistic life there. Before I would’ve just thought this is all that you experience. Now I know how beautiful it truly is for a majority of your time there (not saying snowstorms aren’t beautiful but let’s be real, they’re not ideal lol) and I definitely understand having to tough out these conditions for the reward you’ll get in late winter/spring. Thanks so much for sharing your life with us Cecilia. It means the world to me as someone from Los Angeles that has no grasp on how to survive in the conditions you do, that you share your content with us and just want others to experience the joy and happiness you feel being there. I feel it, and I love it. Thanks again, Cecilia!

    That analysis of It Ends With Us made it for me. I really gave out a chuckle when you were like 'it is top three'.... 'probably top three' and then you said 'worst book ever'. I did not think that was coming.
  • @queeryus
    THAT HIKE WITH LINN! The way the light was hitting the snowy hills and making them look so unreal, and on top of that, some northern lights. I cannot even. So amazing. I definitely want to come sometime and hire a private guide to have adventures like that.
  • I love Grim so so much but there's just something so adorably cheeky and goofy about Fenris that sets him apart! And when they're together they're just unstoppable ahah
  • I love how grim goes crazy for the snow!!! He loves it, so cute 🤩
  • I have my wife hooked on watching your channel. We live in Wa state and I drive the mountains all year. I just think your energy is amazing and it’s really nice to see how positive you guys are thanks for the videos
  • @kazzicup
    Grim is a brave dog. He is not afraid to walk far from the cabin in darkness, strong winds, snow, freezing slippery road. ❄❄❄❄❄
  • It's great how you "acclimate" to this weather. I truly love your book suggestions and willingness to share your home with us.
  • "I think it's shit to be honest" - I'd have a small treasure if I had a dollar for every book that ever made me feel that way. And your honesty is always in demand! 😂😂
  • You make it all look soo romantic and beautiful but I bet its not as easy to walk in that wind with all those slippy icey slopes, but I absolutely adore watching you and Christopher and Grim and all your friends. My furbbies like watching as well when Grims in the shot. Have an absolutely fabulous Christmas and look forward to all your future videos 📹 😀
  • @kimchininja
    The Gingerbread houses are all amazing this year. I love the polar bear themed one the best due to personal preference, but wow, they are just all incredible!
  • @Tara-nc1cv
    Grim and Fenris are the perfect company for the cold days. Just want to cuddle up with them❤ So beautiful 😍
  • 20:20 I think your positive outlook and how you don't even let complete darkness prevent you from doing what you love is so inspiring!!! and to think I've skipped going on walks because of the rain...!
  • Negative- 12 f right now! Colorado/ Snowed overnight! 50 mph winds! And I am out every morning in it, no matter the cold. I love a good winter storm! It's fun watching like-minded people enjoy the cold!! Reading several books that you have suggested and just ordered the hare book! Thank you for these precious glimpses into a life well lived! Acclimate! That is the word you were looking for!!
