SVALBARD CABIN TOUR | How much did it cost? We burn our poop!? | Off grid arctic living

In this video I take you on a tour of my Svalbard cabin home! The cabin doesn't have any running water and is located outside of Longyearbyen. I have lived on Svalbard for 4.5 years and make videos about my life here, so subscribe to see more! :)

[@Godric_71]

I'm sorry for being so ignorant but, what is a "P&O" cruise?

[@davidmatthews4911]

@@Godric_71 P & O are a cruise line that sail the world in ships that are floating hotels. We boarded our ship in Southampton & cruised across the North Sea to Norway & then made our way up the coast, calling in on many places on the way. Each day we woke up in a new port. Finally we reached Svalbard & awoke in a bay surrounded by glaciers. You never forget moments like that. After a couple of days it was time to return down the coast & go home to England. I hope this explains a little to you & may inspire you to one day try cruising & enjoy the sites, while eating & drinking & being entertained aboard the finest "hotel" you could imagine.

One thing about Cecilia is that her content isn’t boring. You watch it and you want more. The way she presents everything isn’t vain or an attempt to show off. There’s something very genuine about her style. She provides a lot of useful information and you really feel like you’re there with her. Even something as simple as showing her cabin was entertaining. She’s very down to earth and she’s funny too. I really enjoy watching her videos about Svalbard and her editing is really nice. She uses her resources quite well. But holy shit….if I did the conversion correctly, that cabin was $280k!!!?? That’s crazy expensive. But I suppose it’s not cheap to live in paradise. Please keep posting Cecilia. I know I’m not the only one that enjoys your content. Grim is cute! Say hello to Grim from us in California! I have two Great Danes. Probably too cold for them! Lol

Thanks for sharing and giving us the cabin tour. The utility room you have is common here in the U.S. mainly in the country or small towns, especially where we get the four seasons (especially long Winters) where we know it as the 'mud room'. This usually includes a place to sit down, hang coats, remove boots, and any outerwear.

[@rodi67]

Wow. I drove twice to the North Cape, around 900km south of Svalbard. Even in early June there was still snow. We drove both times allong the fjords and Lofoten from North Cape back to Oslo, 3'000 km of fjords, emptyness and pure beauty. Driving through different seasons, since it was around 5 degrees in the North and over 20 degrees in the south of Norway. You could see the vegetation change every day. I can understand that you want to life in this magical place. Despite the long winters, despite never having a sommerday. The light, the fjords, the gletjers, its all amazing. Summer 2022 we go again to the North Cape. Wish you lot of success with enlarging your cabin and hoping after Corona times tourism is getting back on track (although I hope not to much, it would spoil the serenity of the area). Greetings from Switzerland.

I've been planning a trip to Norway and may just have to extend it to come see this beautiful place).

ahah, i've been living in a cabin in the alps since may (i'm italian) kinda escaping the pandemic panic there still is in the cities. So....i have kinda of a similar set up, becouse, we have a latrin but it is outside the house, we only have ston cold water (coming from the mountains) so it can be complicated but we manage to shower buy heating the water on the gas stove and filling the 10L pressur shower we have and than use electric heater in the latring to take a shower in that. I dug a hole in the floor connected to the WC so that the water will drain....but it is nice to have to figure out how to live without having the comfrot of a city. Becouse many times that comfort come with a cost

Very nice to see Svalbard sunshiny and clear. Beautiful in its stark natural state. Didn’t realize the snow melted away for summer being so far north, and winds must get pretty stiff at times? Thought there was still an enclave of Russians on another part of island left from their coal mining operations? Reminds me a bit of Iceland with the vast empty reaches and little vegetation running to horizon. Yes, very nice to catch your tour. Love the cabin and all the little efficiencies that make life comfy. Is the top soil very thin with rocky underpayment? I’m guessing in winter you have access to snow for use as fresh water? Thank you for sharing life on Svalbard...so very interesting. Now it must be dark, but sun will return soon as daylight time is getting longer again. Cheers 🥂 thank you!
