[@michellerhodes5477]

I live in the Northern U.S. very close to one of the Great Lakes and get kinda bummed by the winter darkness. The sunrise is technically around 7am but it doesn't feel like the sun is visible enough to drive without headlights until after 8am. Closer to 9am. Then it gets completely dark before 5pm. So we have less sunlight than darkness but, still, idk how I'd do with 24 hour darkness. I do love the winter in a lot of ways. It's so peaceful and quiet (we live in a rural area) with NO BUGS (I really hate bugs) and I HATE being hot so the cold is nice. But the lack of darkness, even taking vitamin D3 daily, kind of depresses me a bit. I realize I like the weather of the winter but not the darkness. Though it does feel super cozy with a wood fire going and a hot comfort meal around the holidays.

In Poland it gets dark minutes before 4pm right now. Btw I love Scotland, you live in a beautiful country, I was amazed by its nature and the vistas this year.

4:50 the period of light after the sun sets is called twilight. When the sun sets, the sky never becomes pitch black instantly. In my country we have one hour of twilight after the sun sets until the sky becomes pitch black.

I hear ya! I'm in australia and its 2 weeks until summer. I'm dragging out my puffer jacket tomorrow because it will be a top of 13 degrees celcius. Crazy to think it's still so cold. I'd LOVE to visit Svalbard one time.

[@draco_borealis]

Haha, some comparison: I live in northernmost part of Poland, on Baltic Sea coast. 10 C is perfect weather for t-shirt + thin jacket xD

[@juliekostas7322]

Such beautiful video quality! I cannot wait until your Christmas vlogs and Christmas dinner at a local, charming, cozy restaurant. You are such a wonderful Ambassador for Svalbard.

[@kellyhauber7891]

Love your enthusiasm and joy of your home. Looking forward to joining you virtually through the polar night.

[@larryw5355]

Magnificent video Cecilia! It was both stunning and heartwarming. Thanks for sharing Life on Svalbard with the world!

[@user-yy7sw5vg6r]

Thank you as always for sharing Cecilia. Love what you said "i"m very content and in a state of peaceful happiness. Making sure to bottle this feeling and to reach for this feeling when i need to, if things start to weigh me down" Simply poetic but so real and true. That for me says a lot how to handle anxiety at times. Appreciate the small things and find beauty in everything, regardless where we are. Simple joy brings hope and inner peace ❤ Keep it up and will be looking forward for your videos, really one of the best content in KZbin, so raw and lots to learn and experience even by watching. Cheers!

[@darcimunday4410]

I get very educated listening to you talk about your beautiful island of Svalbar. I absolutely love your KZbin channel Cecilia!

[@ClaireyTee]

I’m a new subscriber and your videos have made me fall in love with your island. I live in Scotland, but ugh what I wouldn’t give to live further north. Love this channel and your content such a wholesome vibe ❤️

[@TheCapeOn]

Your attitude and energy is so incredibly uplifting.

Coming from someone who lives in a tropical island all her life, I could never imagine going out in that weather in just my PJs😭 Actually not even inside! 😂 Thank you for your videos, I just found your channel and I enjoy your content sm❤️

[@alinerdelav]

Right? Thought the same

[@sherelynwhite4130]

Thank you Cecilia for yet again another amazing video! And thank you for giving me a little bit of hygge in my life. 💙 I live in the tropics and crave, crave, crave cold cozy days and nights, which of course we never have here.😢 The blue light and the color of the beautiful mountains in the distance just sets me into a place of pure peace and calm. 🙏💙Thank you for that and thank you for sharing your life with all of us. Sending much aloha to you and Christoffer and sweet dear Grimm, who also gives me much joy to watch!🌈🌺🙋‍♀️

[@antonsgarage3661]

I really enjoy watching your videos . Your positivity and creativeness , while showing us an inside view , in living in one of the most extreme places on earth is an inspiration… I’d love too visit this place one day

[@ilovecatsnteanbooks3971]

I noticed a slight Irish twang at the beginning of the video but then when you talked about Ireland it came back really strong 😆 Love the content, think I’ll live vicariously through you 🥰

[@elusivespeedster]

Your videos are so comforting to me. I hope people are nice in the comments. I really admire your adventurism. Your family unit and life is so sweet and nice and I wish you and Grim and your significant other all the best. Bless you xo thank you for providing peaceful engaging content

[@lauren236]

Your channel is my favorite! I am absolutely obsessed with Svalbard now. Thank you for sharing with us 🥰

[@jnrs15]

I love that she lives in a safe enough place that a woman can walk in the dark and not fear something bad happening to her. She carries a gun for safety from animals rather than people.

[@jbw53191]

Svalbard looks absolutely enchanting and peaceful. Your videography really highlights that. Thank you for your work!

[@kristiN1214]

You’ve had some amazing life experiences and really living it fully!

[@RolandDeschain1]

I would love to spend some time in a place like that. I live in Australia, where it is hot 80% of the year.

[@5KARDELEN]

as someone from hot australia, I laughed when you said that it's starting to get cold even though its -8 degrees 🤣 I think i would've become ice by now if i was there 😂

[@juliejerles7211]

I was thinking the same thing! The high only made it to 55 degrees Fahrenheit here today in the southern U.S. and I am absolutely freezing and have been wearing my puffy winter coat all day 🤣

[@paulcasey5204]

Another Aussie. Having just visited Norway, weve just booked to visit Svalbard in June. Looks amazing.

[@DaimonWalker]

You have so much energy! Svalbard looks stunning. I've always had a fascination with the place. The closest I have been to that kind of environment is a visit to Tromsø. The light, even there, was something very unique. It's stunning and it pulls me.

[@sophiaisabelle01]

Seems like you have a knack for travelling, and we’re all grateful of the fact that you’re more open and transparent to share your own experiences with us. May God bless you, your family, and your dog.

[@valmelvis]

Amen

[@laurien4384]

I have visited Svalbard on a small cruise ship and we went all over. The most beautiful place. Thank you for such great insights into life there.
