We traveled BACK IN TIME in Norway - van life in a VW T3

[@SimonBraeck]

Guys! I would like to know, is there anything you feel is missing in these videos? Something you would like to see more of? Appreciate the feedback and hope you like this one😊

[@SimonBraeck]

Thanks! I guess I’ve developed this kind of style the last year and I’m glad it is appreciated😊

[@helgeolsson1125]

Simon, i did see the name of some of the places, but it would be much appreciated if you tagged all of them on screen. Love your videos though. You guys are making stunning videos of our country. Great work. Is it Innerdalen you are in the end of the video?

[@petterberard-andersen1485]

They are so good, so I would like them to be a bit longer! Zulu is very much a part of your little family and would love to see more of her - and I think many would appreciate some kind of map insert to show exactly where you are and have been.

[@bluewendytube]

You usually incorporate a little of everything, including food but as others have suggested, a map would be good for possible future reference. Love these videos, I wish we had your scenery over here, just staggeringly beautiful.

[@martynjewell5627]

Your videos are fantastic and having the locations named is great for reference and for future roadtrip planning. Thank you to you both for sharing your amazing country.

[@bartomiejwitek4510]

The quality of the shots along with the music create a perfect composition. Just never stop doing these videos. They are the best. :)

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you very much! I really appreciate it :)

[@billfish5913]

You are so lucky to have the rain and green Norway. Here in Wyoming, the mountains are full of smoke from all of the wildfires in the western USA. And we have drought and water shortages. When it rains, do a native rain dance for western USA. We need all of the help we can get. I drove my 1978 VW camper bus to the park to walk my dog this morning. But it is too smoky to drive up into our Big Horn Mountains. Love your channel. Norway is definitely on mine and Pam’s bucket list.😎👍

[@SimonBraeck]

That's quite the contrast to these moody places I call home. Wildfires and water shortages are not something that hurt us here. I've heard these campers can fit in shipping containers, maybe you could bring your beloved bus here someday!😊

[@billfish5913]

That is a great idea!!

[@ulftornert2855]

Wow! Incredible sights and views. And the drone shots, my goodness! I was in love with Norway before seeing this video. Now I'm hopelessly lost, beyond redemption, in LOVE with Norway! Good thing we're going this summer. 🙂👍

[@SimonBraeck]

It takes time to cover all these amazing places Norway have to offer, fingers crossed that you'll see lots of beautiful places this summer😃

[@StevenVanLoven]

I was near Sogndal/kaupanger last week and I'v seen twice a blue VW bus passing... Maybe... it was you...Did me so good to be there again and enjoy the 'fantastic' weather...Thanks for the video , special the 4K made it great to watch.

[@SimonBraeck]

Yeah that feels like an accurate conclusion😊 The old engine was not well maintained, so a “brand new” overhauled engine was long overdue. Good luck😄👏🏼

I don’t know what to say but it’s a complete video of all angles of hiking and amazing scenery. As what others said innthe comments you are both amazing and giving other couples energy to get out there and explore. Thanks for the powerful video. 💐👩‍❤️‍👨❤️🇳🇴

You guys make my Sunday evenings, thank you from the UK. Another taste of Norway's epic scenary and your wonderful journeys through it. Simon, please don't apologise for being proud of your country and its beauty, your tourist board should be paying you for the advertising! Can't wait to return when things become a little easier.

[@SimonBraeck]

Wow, that's so cool, I'm glad these videos are enjoyable and can serve as inspiration for future journeys. The tourist board have not returned my e-mails😄😄

[@blackdogwildtrails3123]

You are so lucky living in a relatively large, sparsely populated, beautiful country. I live in rural north Wales which by UK standards is quiet and pretty beautiful in its own way, but I feel for anyone stuck living in the middle of an overcrowded, polluted, English conurbation. To those poor souls, Norway must seem like heaven!!!

[@seeyou1812]

Beautiful footage. I did the Skagefla hike 3 years ago and I have to admit it's one of the most beautiful hikes I ever did. The views are so stunning and made me almost breathless. Besides the steep incline at the beginning ;-) These first 250 Hm were extraordinary, especially the completely exposed parts. And I was so lucky, I had a deep blue sky during my hike. Unfortunately I only made some pictures, no videos. Safe travels

[@frpaddy]

Norway is a stunningly beautiful country. You’re videos are wonderful and it is great to see you both back with Zulu. 🙂

Hey, simon i was so busy from past couple of weeks. So cant find time to watch your video and i also dont want to watch it on phone. So i just so your both video and i dont have words to describe its beauty. Every frame is so beautiful any one can take any frame and make it wallpaper. I am also video professional video editor and i know how much effort and time its takes to shoot and edit this kind of video. Continue making this video and last to Benedikte "who dive into the water wearing socks ...?🤣😂🤣😂

[@davidchase7166]

Wow, what a stunning area!! Great film as usual folken. Really like knowing the place names and the information you add, I like to look on maps to see where abouts the areas are as one day will we in Norway with our van. We both think you could work on your English accent a bit though, a strong 7 out of 10 from us. We hope to hear you improve on it in future videos :D After this trip would you be interested in doing a Q and A video? All the best B&Y

[@SimonBraeck]

Thanks! If I ever found an easy way to show some smart animations on a map along with my clips, I'll be sure to add it. A Q&A video could be fun to make someday, maybe I'll start asking for questions going forward. Now back to formal English practice 😊

[@AlexRChies]

Wow both, another incredible episode. The best I’ve ever seen in the channel so far. I love the intro, the new look of the video effects and, of course, absolutely fall in love with the north. I only visited south of Norway and Sweden and fully convinced that the best is awaiting me. Thanks for let us travel with you.

We look forward to visiting the rest of the places in these videos next time we visit. Also amazing cinematography with both the drone and camera shots.

[@emiliomarcelino4005]

Amazing .

[@stevem4038]

Loving the content and scenery - breathtaking! Having visited many years ago Norway remains on the list of places to revisit. In the meantime the highlands of Scotland will have to suffice - equally magnificent in their own way, except for the biting insects (midges) of course. Are midges a problem in the summer in the areas you a visiting?

[@SimonBraeck]

Thanks Steve :) So many places to see and explore, impossible to have enough time when visiting! Midges are not a problem, unless you decide to camp by rivers, especially far from the coast.

One of my basket lists. Awesome video! This is my fav so far. Your video creativity is getting better every time.

[@SimonBraeck]

It's open for the public indeed, but you gotta put in the effort to hike up there on narrow and steep trails, but totally worth it in my humble opinion. You're right, tried something new with the format because the history was so interesting. Thank you, that's very kind of you😊

Ah, the classic bouncing speedometer😅 That wire can't be all that short, huh? Loved the little info texts you put in, but they could linger a little longer.

As a "local", I also appreciate the place names you put up!

We just swapped the wire, without any luck... They got a bit hot, but we went really slow in a low gear as we flew the drone meanwhile. Thanks for the feedback Ole :)

@@SimonBraeck sometimes the reason can be in a speedo wire cap, when the square hole became loose or the cap itself became loose. Somebody quick fixing it with a welder- just one tap to secure the wire to the cap.
