Oh my gosh a sleepy Grim has to be one of the sweetest things EVER!!

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

😍😍😍

[@beardedlinuxgeek]

You should do a video that's just 20 minutes of nature and Grim with relaxing music. You take such wonderful shots.

[@pygmygiant]

Yessss, I love to study to such videos

[@shes_Shira]

Yes 👍

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

Ohhh that is a great idea!! Like a relaxing study video - I WILL DO THIS! 😍😍

[@keithjohnson5398]

Or perhaps you can submit a nature clip to the tv show Sunday Morning, they have a 1-2 minute nature video every Sunday. Perhaps they list submission information on their website.

[@cindyalberda9557]

I agree! Was just telling my hubby that your videos are so relaxing and inspiring!

[@renlybaratheon9683]

I'm 26 years old and so obsessed with this kind of living. I wanna move in to your place away from crowded people and be able to live a peaceful and happy life. The city life generate anxiety and unhappiness because of the standards set by rich people. I do not have social media accounts but have this platform to see videos like this. Altough moving in to this place won't be a joke and surely the cost is expensive but I hope one day. Thank you for this video. Stay safe everyone!

[@michelleyoung8298]

The living room is just fall/winter vibes and I am HERE for it!!

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

I can't waiiiiit for winter and polar night 😍😍

[@wendi2819]

Cecelia, I just love how even after 6 years on Svalbard you still appreciate living in this magnificent place! Your joy is so contagious. You've found your bliss for sure. Your home is just wonderful. So happy to have found your channel! 🐕💗🐕💗

[@Justafonso]

By this video I can just feel how freaking cozy your house will be and look during Autumn-Winter 🥰🥰

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

I can't wait for more darkness!! 😍

[@patdavey2690]

I don’t know what this says about me, but I love the dark. I went to Iceland in December and I loved the dark! Your home is gorgeous!

[@shannonhime927]

I swear, I have been living vicariously through your videos for a while now. Your lifestyle just resonates with me. Always been an adventurous person and lived in places I wanted to live. This past nearly 2 years, it has been harder to that, of course. Now I am getting ready to move to Alaska, and plan to do some whale watching of my own. Thank you for sharing your life in these videos. Your house is so gorgeous!

[@CoachCarolAnn]

Chilling with Grim. ❤️ Spending time with our dogs is the best thing ever. We are so fortunate to be loved by them.

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

🧡🧡🧡

[@tashastubbs-davies3628]

That sunset is so beautiful Cecilia. I live in North Wales, nowhere near as high up geographically as you, but we don't have astronomical darkness in summer either, the sky stays a dark blue here. The nights are starting to draw in fast now that autumn is here, though it is still warm and humid. I always miss the evening light, the darker months seem to last so much longer than the light months. Congratulations on completing the cabin! It looks fabulous, such a perfect spot to live 💜

[@melissarobinson9618]

So awesome that you guys decided to put the television in a room where it won't block the view! And where you can pull the blinds for a true theatre experience! Love you little Grim! (had to laugh when his tail nearly put out the candle, lol)

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

Yeah there will be no tv in the living room! We will probably put up our projector for polar night though 😍

[@annenoir9409]

You probably confuse it with the kitchen ventilatior

[@Kdrive23]

Every video just increases my desire to visit Svalbard. I had planned to do a snowmobile tour up there for my 50th birthday next year, but I won't be able to work out the logistics (and COVID keeps everything up in the air, of course). But the more I watch your videos, the more I think that a short tour would be less than satisfactory, and I would want to experience a full year there.

[@ferrarif3408]

Agreed. Really seems like the best way to do it justice would be to stay for at least a year.

[@BobKlumpp]

Your house is looking great! Do you have the water system in yet? When you have the system in please do an episode on how it functions.

[@tameramorrison8966]

I was just wondering as well.

[@lunakat2755]

I am straight up in LOVE with your new kitchen!

[@chiccomattos]

The videos are more and more beautiful Cecilia!!

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

Aww thank you so much Chicco!! 😍

[@Oceans5april]

Your videos are a peace of calm in an otherwise chaotic world. I find so much comfort in everything you post. Never ever stop sharing with us. ❤️❤️

[@amstergal]

So relaxing and cozy. Loved seeing this time of day in your life. The "blue" light and that sky and whales! Serenity. Much needed and appreciated in this current world! ❤️

[@katiestegman8083]

What a lovely life you've created for yourself. This whole video is just so dreamy.

[@ernstoud]

Grim is 60 pounds of pure love. Excellent photography, and the house has become so nice. Well done. You must be so proud.

[@kathryndamron3238]

How do you not just stare out your window all the time. Whales!!! Pink/Lavendar sunsets!!! Holy Moly!!!

[@johndoyle3514]

The color of the terrain this time of the year is just gorgeous. I love the changing colors of Svalbard.

[@jeremynv89523]

I was noticing that, too. The oranges are obvious, but if you look closer, you can find lavender and some unusual shades of blue (teal, anyone?). It would be a painter’s dream.

[@ndisfoshiz]

When she had her tea I raised my cup of coffee and said “Cheers Cecilia! To life, to love, and to happiness”

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

😍😍😍😍

[@niamc2301]

That image of Grim watching you light the candles is just perfect 🧡☺️

[@owenbensmith3118]

Perfect and cosy, would kill to have a sunset with the glaciers on the back absolutely breathtaking!

[@karinvilim365]

I love how in love you are with where you live. That is truly a gift❤

[@mangocaramelz]

Thanks so much for sharing snips of your cozy and beautiful life ! I caught my heart flutter and myself smiling a few times during your video, especially the ones with the whales ! & I'm happy to hear when you said 3 boats is a lot. I'm all for preserving and protecting the environment ❤️

[@bernardopros1736]

Hey Cecilia!! Looking foward to this winter!!! Missing your videos about this cozy part of the year!!

[@ctdd2536]

Every time i watch your upload you take me 17 minutes with you in a very cosy relaxing dreamworld. Thank you for being such a Nice guide and person for taking us in your privat home and nature.

[@kimsan5572]

Thank you for documenting your life on Svalbard! Watching these legitimately gives me a sense of peace and calm. I finally broke down and ordered my Grim Says Hi merch, I can't wait for it to arrive! Keep doing what you're doing :)

[@danaweaver4129]

I love the morning videos, but this evening routine spoke to my soul. So cozy and lovely. ❤️

[@marijanel9639]

My soul!!! That vista is stunning - thank you so much for sharing!

[@Kerfuffles92]

Those lights were SUCH a great idea! And the extra spent in the kitchen was so worth it. Highlights the view so much!

[@telstar32]

I have only just found your channel and I can only imagine how amazing in must be to live in such a beautiful place. Thank you for sharing with us.

[@gme5400]

I can see the beauty of Svalbard 💙 it is magnificent! Those sunsets and whales are epic! Grim is icing in the cake🐾

[@keithjohnson5398]

Great you're able to share your slice of the world with so many of us. Thank you.

[@allanahmcdougall3777]

Just amazing. Love your fire and home. It’s so cosy. Thank you for sharing lovely xx

[@bettyannsingh212]

Love all of your videos, but this one was so cozy and peaceful. Thank you for sharing your peaceful life with Grim, Chris and those amazing views as you explore your surroundings.

[@smurph4959]

Cecilia your home is heavenly ... So so cosy and grim cuddles on tap too 💗🐶💗 Such a crazy beautiful place.

[@pamcomer5728]

So excited for winter on Svalbard, it looks surreal, especially when the snow is deep and the Northern Lights are dancing in the sky 😍

[@sarahk5724]

Such a cosy living room with an amazing view. Wow, spectacular sunset too😍

[@11kathleenanne]

I literally just sat down with my coffee! Thank you for sharing the beauty of Svalbard. Columbus, Ohio, USA.

[@luzsolaegui]

What an amazing life experiences you’re sharing , thank you !

[@sabrinachorlton8540]

When you showed that sunset through the windows my jaw dropped an I said pls go on the porch in my head. When you did it I screamed. So beyond beautiful

[@JaimieJo]

Thank for sharing your beautiful evening with us! I wish I could spend my summers there. Grim smiles! He probably thinks you bought the couch for him! Beautiful video! Whale watching, oh that would be so wonderful to experience. Stay well.💕🐶🐾

[@vixenator7657]

Great evening video. Up in Northern Canada we're really starting to see the sun going down a lot earlier now too. It's gone from a few hours of twilight in July to about several hours of darkness. Winter is coming!

[@theaeasterling5785]

Delightfully chill & cozy video-just what I needed today! ❤️

[@janetellinger9605]

That was so Beautiful!! It is a great time of year!

[@katerachel-boslem3153]

The most amazing views from your lounge and kitchen....so calming & peaceful...

[@lindasteinhauer1951]

Beautiful, thank you Cecilia!

[@karenbrelsford4359]

Absolutely stunning 🤩 love your home! And that couch looks so comfy! Grim is the best! Enjoy!!!🥰🥰🥰

[@brujildaespana6670]

I love the calm, the peace, the light, the landscape... I love all, it's perfect! Greetings from Madrid, Spain. 💙🇪🇸

[@FactMansMysteries]

You are a fantastic filmmaker, Ms Blomdahl...And being one of the most beautiful ladies makes your work that much more fun.

[@bwillan]

The whale watching was great, thanks for providing a fabulous front row seat. With the sun barely setting, this is rather unique time of the year.

[@luigi501]

Hi Ceci!!! WOW! AMAZING!!! 🥰🥰🥰

[@debbiefondow7871]

Such a chill, beautiful vlog. Love these so much!!💜💜

[@stevenfacer4818]

I so look forward to your videos. They relax me. Thank you. And Grim is always a hit.

[@merryr3236]

Grim is just so adorable 🥰 I like the speed cleaning ❤️

[@coffeebeancoffeebean7943]

I really wish to visit Svalbard one day,,there is something special about this place 🥰 Beautiful Video as always.

[@raygreat9183]

You’re house looks so cosy and tastefully styled. 👏❤️

[@robynbrose4124]

Love your videos as always ❤️ I love Grim’s cute little face in the background while you’re lighting the candles lol 😍

[@WilliamSmith-lv5ym]

Hello Cecilia, been going though some tough times recently, came across your vlog, really enjoyed the beauty of Svalbard, picked my spirits up. Thank you. Like the dog too!.

[@PS-ul6mt]

By far the most coziest house in the Arctic. 👍❄️

[@123monamie]

I so enjoy watching your videos. Your lifestyle is so polar opposite to my very suburban life in the south. Thank you so much for making this content and sharing it with us. Keep up the wonderful work!

[@morpheux2]

Cecilia you have that amazing talent of the storytellers, you can make a video from a simple thing like a sunset into an amazing story with few, so your videos are relaxing, beatifuls and entretainig. It is the music you chooce, the light, the scenery yes it is awasome but the way you convey it it's another level, I really enjoy your channel, I love your videos and of course I love Grim (the star of the show of course). Thanks it is impossible not to relax and enjoy your videos!!!

[@carolynanderson6545]

What a lovely, relaxing video. You have nature at its best right outside your door. House looks fab. Doggie loves to Grim ❤

[@louisel.sinniger2057]

Wow, your home looks so cozy and I love that you put those little trac lights up all around, that adds to the ambiance! Watching the whales is so cool, & relaxing. The view of the sky and surroundings are fantastic. Grim, adorable as usual. I could just about curl up on the couch near the fire and take a nap! Love the music too. You always have cool music! Thanks for this oh so soothing video. Looking forward to those northern lights. Cheers

[@sally88tan]

Thank you Cecillia, I think one of your top 10 videos! Very calm and relaxing showing a true appreciation of the beauty of Salvbard and taking the time to enjoy and share. We should be with you in September 2022! Great to see the light conditions we can expect. ATB Alan

[@lisamclaughlin5061]

Love from Chicago! I love your videos. Not only do I put one of your videos to fall asleep to (you are so calming and sweet) but I so want to come to Svalbard just to see the beauty you see every day. Much love from a long time watcher and long time subscriber! PS my nine year old daughter is a big fan and said she would love to meet you and give Grim a big hug. ❤️❤️

[@lilyrose7082]

So relaxing and beautiful Cecelia! Love the Wales too 👏💗

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

Thanks so much 😊

[@trrpin]

the view from your house is almost surreal 👍 looking forward to more videos from you always..

[@KezFromAus]

Sooooo beautiful! No wonder you want to live there! Your house is looking soooo cosy! I am so happy to see your string lights back! Can't wait for your polar night and Christmas shots/videos! It is literally the "polar" opposite of my Aussie summer (but you would know that if you spent time in Aus) and gives me a sense of coolness and surrealness 😊 I enjoy your videos soooo MUCH! Thank you sweetie! xoxo

[@erie8734]

Loving Grim's helicopter tail wag =)

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

He is the happpiest boy on the planet 😍
