Grim looked so content on that boat, staring out at the water. He's such a beautiful treasure! Your filming and editing are out of this world stunning, truly feels so cinematic. Thank you!

[@alys4570]

That was so dang cute😍

[@sass08]

The serenity of your videos makes me want to leave the city and move to a remote place. The simple life is so underrated.

[@CoachCarolAnn]

Each of your installments has its own tone. This one was serene and you outdid yourself with the footage. Grim was the star of the show. And breaking your nail was an epic tragedy. 😜

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

😍😍 I always edit according to my feels. I'm so happy you enjoyed this video 😍 Grim is always the star of the show 🤩

[@anneheffner6389]

Oh Cecilia! Your views are unparalleled and I thank God for your channel. I must live out my dreams of Svalbard through you. I appreciate you so much. Also, does anyone else smile and say hello to Grim, out loud?

[@marijanel9639]

Ohhhh....my nordic soul aches when I see these beautiful sites. I can only thank you for taking me to my heart home!

[@Serendipity-gj2me]

There's no greenery there at all. Looks so barren and lonely yet at the same time peaceful and serene. And Grim is simply the best! Thank you for sharing this tranquility with us.

[@smurph4959]

Svalbard is so beautiful this time of year ... the colours 💗💗💗

[@AltitudeAerialCornwall]

Svalbard is quite simply Heaven on Earth. It is breathtakingly beautiful. You are sooo lucky to live there. Keep up the amazing content. 😍

[@FionaEm]

Just when I think the Svalbard scenery can't get any more beautiful, you show me this! Absolutely gorgeous.

[@MariaFrancaSerrau]

I enjoyed this video so much. Everything was so beautiful, the calm ocean, the glacier, that pink sky and the cherry on top of the cake: Grim ❤❤❤❤ He is such a beautiful furred companion! Thank you Cecilia!

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! 😍

Cecelia - the filming and editing is just so stunning. I love all the creativity you bring to your videos. 🙌🏻❤️

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

You're the best! 😍

[@Helenemonblogdefille]

Thank you so much Cecilia for this new video ! It's a real treat you offer us every week, and I am very thankful for it !

[@mikehollabaugh]

The timing of your video releases is so perfect! I love my Sunday mornings with a cup of coffee watching your cozy videos, while it is TRYING to become Fall (my fave season as well) here in Boston. And my dog enjoys perching up behind me on the couch watching Grimm :)

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

I also love fall!! Especially in Boston, it's beautiful! My sister lives around there and I'm just waiting for america to open up so I can visit for fall!

[@pauladixon9003]

Grim in the dinghy was absolutely adorable! Okay let’s face it, everything Grim is absolutely adorable! 🤗🐾❤️ I have to admit something else: I hate to wish this on you all, but I’m really looking forward to seeing the first crazy snow storm from your newly renovated home. I discovered your videos last year because you posted the video of Grim up in the night, scared by the storm. I have been hooked ever since! 😃🌬❄️☃️

[@alanholck7995]

Just so long as Grim doesn't decide the dingy is the poop deck....

[@joannescholes3742]

BEAUTIFUL VIEW!👏❤️ The way you pull the boat into the water, and Grim jumps in…AWESOME! The brave and fearless Grim👏. How smart you are, Cecilia! Wonderful cabin, too!

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

He is such a cutie! Can you believe he was super scared of everything before?! He wouldn't even get into a car! And before he wouldn't get his paws wet! He is becoming more and more confident everday and it's beautiful to see! 😍

[@violakaiser619]

I just love your nature shots so much. I can look at this beautiful landscapes forever.

[@Brian_Moser1118]

You literally make the best content about this place. my opinion on it is that it takes a certain personality to live there. It takes a person that loves the quiet and sitting by themselves and the dark and raw nature and water and cold all together.

[@zaram131]

Yes.. Someone who is happy with a slow pace and little social interaction I would say..

[@alissalav]

This was so beautiful! Loved the way you filmed every bit of your walk with Grim - it really felt like we've been there with you. And the drone footage is beyond words. Thank you!

[@Alex-jl6xl]

Cecilia, you are just fantastic with a camera 🎥 I look forward to every video of yours!

[@PhoebeGrigor]

I could stare at those glaciers all day, thank you so much for sharing them with us ❄️

[@dianalewis8548]

That went so fast. Grim having fun and being the big protector. It is a different life you lead and not for everyone. I would miss trees and woods. That starkness would be hard for me. Enjoy your week and fix that nail😅

[@bobbichaney2740]

Outstanding videos always! I absolutely love love love your Svalbard life!!! Very dreamy! ♥️

[@ellelong1526]

Stunning!!!! I so look forward to your video releases! You are so blessed to be living in a gorgeous place. Thank you for sharing with us!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

Thank you so much for watching! 😍

[@zaram131]

Can I just say that Grim in a life vest and standing in the boat is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen in my life. I don’t know why it strikes me funny that you have to motor or row him to shore to go pee. 😃 A beautifully done video once again. I thought it was interesting that all the cabins were full.. seems so remote and yet there must be more people than it seems.

[@christoffersprck7234]

Its 3 cabins in bjonahamna. 1 belongs to totaktaren and is for poeople who lives here and have a membership. Then we have 2 private cabins.

[@11kathleenanne]

Hi Cecilia! Absolutely amazing shots today! I mean really I am at a loss for words. GREAT job and I hope you enjoyed your boat trip🛳

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

Thank you so much! 🧡

[@debyfalkner8628]

I almost cried over your broken nail. I really enjoy your videos. I don’t like cold weather, but it’s beautiful. So your videos are perfect to watch.

[@amstergal]

There is so much peace in your videos with the beauty that you so love and bring to each of us. So incredibly beautiful. ❤️ Grim is adorable always. Your boat with the lantern light and Christofer inside making dinner is so cozy.

[@jorgenorbertoocampo7408]

Spectacular! A place incredible! Love the beach full of small rolling stones! And the wildlife in it natural place, amazing and wonderful!!

[@theaeasterling5785]

After a stressful day for me, watching this video with the serene and beautiful scenery helped to reduce my anxiety!! ❤️ thanks!

[@mvwilliams56]

This is the kind of video I love from you! The landscape, Grimm, your humor! Thank you so much!

[@bethbryan1722]

Such a lovely place! Your music choices enhanced the scenes of the glaciers, water, sky and mountains. Thank you again for sharing this lovely place and your enthusiasm for it

[@mandarijneend]

I appreciate your deliberate choise for Svalbard as a place to live, it is a wise choise for a young woman.

[@butcherwoman3753]

Absolutely breathtaking. I love your explanations and descriptions as well as educational bits. Your all the best. Grim just can’t possibly get any cuter. ❤️🐾🐾❤️

[@gingerwalker8407]

Your videos are divine! Love watching from the east coat of the US. Could you please, please do a video on the cabin’s water system? We are puzzled and confused as to how it all works! Thank you for the lovely vid. Adore us some Grim also.💖

[@donnakotoff9949]

Beautiful!!! And you bring it to us just beautifully! Thank you!

[@jimjensen9139]

I am fairly proud to have been 71 degrees North and then you blow that away with 78 degrees North. Love to see your life. Thanks for sharing.

[@kazzicup]

Which town is at 71 degrees north?

[@jimjensen9139]

Utqiagvik, Alaska, USA. I did put my hand in the Arctic Ocean but no polar bears wandered by.

[@agodiacrane3460]

Watching your videos sometimes feels like there's only you, grim and Chris living on Svalbard.

[@kimberlyallan1671]

Grim just sitting in his little boat 😭😭😭 I love him so much

[@louisel.sinniger2057]

Oh Grim has his own deck! Wow it’s all so soothing. Beautiful video and music. Love the fall, especially when smelling wood smoke. Something about being outdoors makes food & coffee even better. Thank you I needed this.

[@maryburbrink4601]

I like living vicariously through your videos :).

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

Glad you like them! 🧡🧡

[@lb42]

It's so calm and peaceful, sea especially 🌊 such a tranquility gives me a feeling of something surreal 😊 Grim loves being on the boat as far as I can see ❤️🐾🐶

[@chrissylynn1243]

Such a beautiful adventure!!! Grim is so adorable!!

[@pacho1692]

I enjoy very much when you talk to grim.

[@rachelpostman5822]

The pink reflecting off the water 😍

[@UPdan]

As I watch this I'm eating oatmeal with flaxseed, chia seed, raisins, walnuts, sliced apples, blueberries and black raspberries in your honor. It gives me the energy for those long hikes. Beautiful scenery.

[@John--qh9xl]

Another great video, thanks Cecelia, Christopher and Grim. We love them here in San Diego, California.

[@JanisTilyard]

Loving the soothing gentle music with the stark stunning remote landscape. Thank you.

[@CeciliaBlomdahl]

I'm so glad you enjoy it! :)

[@John-Nada]

My mother used the expression "It's colder than Spitsbergen out there" to gauge winter weather. It gave me the impression of howling wind and sleet in the face, but now I see its reality: moderate temperatures and serenity.

[@ole9186]

Your mind must be blown when that drone footage is seen for the first time. Stunning and beautifully paired with the music.

[@cherlgolja5402]

Grim is the sweetest pup 🐕love love your videos 🌹from northern CA 🇺🇸

[@sharimeisel8786]

Absolutely stunning! ❤️ Peaceful. Beautiful. Majestic. ❤️ Thank you for sharing these amazing experiences! It reminds me of one of my favorite Psalms and my many hiking adventures in the Colorado Rockies, “You keep all your promises. You are the Creator of heaven’s glory, earth’s grandeur, and the ocean’s greatness.” Psalm 146:6 - The Passion Translation

[@zaram131]

What a beautiful verse. Thank you for sharing. The stunning beauty in these videos always brings tears to my eyes. God’s creation seems so unspoiled here.

[@andrewpike1993]

Yet another fab video Cecilia! 👍😊 When I (finally) arrive in Svalbard next May I’m doing a snowmobile trek to Tempelfjorden. If it’s half as beautiful as the glaciers in your video I’m in for a treat! 👍

[@tu3688]

Tears came to my eyes. The beauty is magical

[@anaprather4603]

Getting that boat was the best purchase you guys made! Now you’re so much more mobile and can make so many more great videos for us! Sorry about the broken nail! Ugh! 😭

[@matthewmelton8094]

that opening shot, just wow! can't even put into words

[@desiinscotland]

The fact that there is a Moka Bialetti out there in Svalbard makes me a really proud italian ❤ Great video as always, thanks for sharing!

Greetings from Tasmania, Cecilia, and thank you for all the work you put into these vlogs. Svalbard is so beautiful and remote to me - I hope I get to see it myself one day. I get so much enjoyment from watching some of your, Christopher and Grim's life there. XX

I would love to drink a cup of coffee with you and smooch and play with Grim. Thank you so much for sharing Svalbard and your life with us. Tell Christopher we all said hi and have a wonderful week 🧡

Love coming home from work and finding a new vlog from @cecilia. Beautiful Svalbard, Grim, Chris, Polar Nights on the way.....so exciting!

[@HannahWestsea]

I visited Svalbard many years ago. I was quite young at the time and I could not appreciate it the way I would now. I hope to come back now as an adult and really experience it. It’s just so beautiful! Beautiful video!

[@zamev]

Love, love your videos! And I see you have more and more fans as I see how you're steadily increasing the number of subscribers you have ❤

[@lynneanthony168]

Utterly beautiful and peaceful ✨ the way the sun hits the mountains/glacier is magic.

[@dayandnight8805]

I’m not sure why.....but one of my favourite videos....the music...the end scene...well done!

[@SILSAIZable]

It was magic!!! I can’t wait to see part 2! Thank you so much!!!

[@susannechakan4939]

Christmas Eve 2022 watching this now because I AM relatively new to your channel. This place is so beautiful it makes me cry. You are excellent in the way you make these videos. Thank you for sharing this amazing place with us.

[@judithbutler9695]

Watching your film has been my vacation for the last year💕👍🙌🏻❤️

[@Donneczka1]

I love your life too! It’s meditative to watch! I am amazed at all the good weather you have to enjoy boating, but I’m guessing you probably go out only in the best weather. For some reason, maybe the 3% Swedish in me, I have always been attracted to tales and adventures of the Arctic and Antarctic. So, these videos are a good fix! Love the scenery and oddities of life there. All the best!

[@norskpebbles]

So beautiful... peaceful.. love Grim.. love all your beautiful videos..Tusen Takk❤️🤗🐾❤️

Bästa filmen ever. Intressant och otroligt vacker.

[@firstfreonwarrior]

The opening sequence is just epic!

[@fayepotts3279]

Don’t come back to the second video, until your nail is fixed! 😂 In all seriousness, the landscape was break taking. It seems like all is well in the world. To me it’s like the rebirth of a new earth with all it’s serenity. We long for this, with so much wrong going on today! Thank you for sharing your special place in creation. Looking forward to more.🥰

[@bryreich2]

Spitzbergen without the snow on the surrounding mountains looks a lot like parts of the desert southwest in the USA. Specifically the painted desert in AZ or areas around New Mexico.

[@jorgenorbertoocampo7408]

The colours are incredible beautiful!

[@sylwiajach1856]

Marvellous, amazing, peaceful and breath taking place !!!!!Thank you for your films. All the best for You and Your family and cute Dog. Keep warm :)

He will probably be doing a cooking episode each month! 😍😍

Your vlogs/environment in Svalbard have such a unique and different perspective on beauty! I personally love green and vibrant places, but the Svalbard tundra and permafrost is something else!
