Love watching your videos, today we had frost and here in Scotland the clocks went back an hour last night so it will slowly be dark by 4pm and it will be about 9 am before its totally light, today i did what you do stuck my duvet outside for a few hours and oh my they smell so fresh, I love the dark winter months here in Scotland, love getting up on a frosty morning hot shower and then heading down stairs from my flat to my shop to start work ( I own 2 convenience stores )
You are an ambassador for Svalbard. You put them on the map, for those of us that have never heard of this magnificent place. Congratulations from Louisiana, USA.
@@KnittingFoole omg, that's adorable!! Although I have to wait awhile to be able to squeeze the purchase into my budget, I absolutely plan on buying it as a present to myself for Christmas!! ❤
Yess exactly the same for me. Like an early chrismas morning with family and so calming ❤ they made me enjoy wintertime also so much more by showing the beauty of it 😊
Congratulations on your book.!! You deserve it.!!! Thank you for sharing your life. I am disabled and have to be flat in bed up to 16 hours a day. You and Christopher are such a treasure!! Grimm as well.
I recently started watching from Phoenix AZ USA, where we just dropped below triple digit temps. I can't imagine living in your temps, but escaping to your channel with snow, polar nights, and sparse population is a refreshing escape, especially right now during a volatile political time here. Thanks for bringing us into your world!
Cecilia I think one of the loved BBC weather guy's is a fan. We actually had a report that polar night begins on Svalbard on 6pm news weather segment. I shouted to the TV 'bet he subscribes to Cecilla'. Then a list of UKs sunrise and sunset times. So I was waiting for tonight's episode, you did not disappoint. Congrats on the book. 🎉
Received my book 🎉 I have enjoyed reading it twice so far. What a beautiful book. 10 out of 10, highly recommend for oneself and/or a gift. Thank you Cecilia
I just want you to know I absolutely, love your chanel. I am in the Midwest in the United States and I am now kind of obsessed with Svalbard because of you. I am excited to get your book soon and congratulations on that as a fellow writer I know your excitement on getting that first copy in the mail. Your chanel is so soothing and calming just what my brain that is always going needs. So thank you for that. I am always looking forward to your next video
I'm in Quebec and it's hard to explain to people from warmer climates but today is significantly colder and it isn't snowing yet but you can "smell" the snow in the air... I'm sure you know what i mean.
You deserve being on the best sellers list because you are a great cinematographer. I just love your imagery and will continue to watch whatever you do. Love my book!
Love to see you enjoying the beautiful light, colors and the little changes in the weather through the seasons! Your channel is so uplifting and gorgeous and inspiring!
As someone who moved far enough south that we only have 2 months of winter, I admire you. I get cold at 50 degrees so it makes me smile to see you in just your pjs perfectly happy at 32F. We had the ice storm 3 years ago and our living room was 32F for 6 days. I was miserable, but I think you would have happily made coffee and carried on :)
I admire your lifestyle! It’s so refreshing to see someone living in harmony with nature. You make living in Svalbard look so appealing! Thanks for sharing this beautiful experience. ❤
Every year I watch this transition with you. It is so beautiful. Though I don't think I could do constant darkness for more than a few days. But it is fascinating to experience from a distance. Thanks for sharing
I really appreciate Cecilia’s enthusiasm for whatever weather Svalbard provides. Here in England we’ve just put our clocks back an hour for the end of British Summer Time so we’re back to GMT. Personally, I dislike the fewer and fewer daylight hours we get in winter and I’m always waiting for the solstice to pass so the days slowly begin to lengthen again.
I absolutely love it getting dark earlier. I put my jammies on at 4:00 when I don't have to drive my daughter around for swimming lol. Turn the fireplace on and hang out. It's always so cozy in the winter.
Cecilia, remember that you wrote your book based on your lives on Svalbard and you took all those amazing photographs and these are the reasons why your first book has made it into the New York Times best seller book list! We have bought your book because you’re awesome, you!! And Christoffer and Grim!!! I am constantly picking up your book, which is on my coffee table. 💐🌻🙅♀️🙅♀️🙅♀️
Hi! I'm from the United States and I was fortunate to see the Northern Light this month. It was truly on my bucket list to see the Northern Light but I am excited to add on my bucket list traveling in the Northern atmosphere to experience both the polar day and nights.
Congrats on making the best sellers list , what an honor which you can use for the rest of your life . I love driving trucks myself . Polar night is finally here .
It’s a crispy Sunday morning here and I needed my cozy time with you guys. The whole time you were sliding on the deck I was cackling and saying don’t fall, don’t fall 😂 I adore the fall cup it is so beautiful. I want all of them! I have the same issue in my living room. I love that light. It works. You do deserve to be on the best sellers list. Your book brings me directly to Svalbard for all the seasons. When I read it I could hear your lovely voice. You were telling me your story and it was wonderful. I’ve told you before that you’re my happy place and the book just solidifies it. My Sunday doesn’t start until I’ve watched your video and I am perfectly fine with it! Hope Christoffer landed safely. Have an incredible week. You deserve it
I am so excited for the polar nights!! Hugs to you and Christopher and scratches and pets to Sir Grimm…♥️♥️♥️and Congratulations on your success with the book! So deserved and I cannot wait for my signed copy
That full moon was magical across the globe..even here in Kentucky. I’m so impressed, Cecilia, how very clean and tidy every building you enter is; even with all the wet/muddy boots. I’m really happy about your book, congratulations⭐️. I’m really excited to join you and your fellas for another polar night season. Have a wonderful week and hugs to all three of you from Kentucky🧡🧡
As soon as you said you had to tell us something insane, I immediately thought NYT bestseller!!!!!! I am soo proud of my favorite youtuber. You deserve it!!!
I can see why you never get tired of that view. It is so breathtaking 😮❤ However, I love the Polar nights. 😊 Grim is so cute and you sliding across the porch 😂😂 looks like something I would do.
Cecilia, I am so happy to have received your book: Life on Svalbard. It has been worth the wait, I must say! Stunning photos (especially Grim!) and delightful stories that make me feel as if I am right there. Thank you so much for the wonderful chronicle of your life on Svalbard. May God bless you and watch over you, Christopher and Grim! 💟🌠
Dear Cecillia and Christopher, I enjoy watching your channel. I am an old lady and I was 49 years old when I started learning English. Now I'm 62. You help me a lot of. And the wonderful nature around you. I am following you from the small country of SLOVAKIA.This beautiful country is in the heart of Europe👍👍👍
Congrats on making the nyt best seller list. You have a unique experience and perspective to share which you do with your authentic voice and talent. Hugs to you, christofer and grimm! 😃
Congrats Cecillia! That's a real cornerstone of respect! You are a somebody! It's NY Times Official! Nobody can take your words from you, and they achieved par! Well done!
Congratulations!!! That is an amazingly achievement, and well deserved. Your book is beautiful and definitely deserves to be found by so many people! I can't believe I've been watching you through 6 polar nights! That's crazy! But I must say you are the one thing I look forward to each week. Sunday is my chill day, with my retired service dog, and I tell him all about you, Christopher and Grimmv❤ I look forward to you filming this years polar night too ✨
Congratulations! That IS huge! You do such a wonderful job and have such a beautiful spirit. And you give the gift of having a sense of what it is like to live in such an amazing and remote place on this earth. I watch because I am interested in the place but you and Grimm(and sometimes Christopher) make it so enjoy! 🎉🎉❤❤
I am only halfway through watching your awesome video today and am pausing to marvel at the journey you’ve been on manifesting “your best life” while those of us who’ve been watching (for many a Polar night) cheer loudly from the sidelines. As others in the comments section have said, in so many words, you’ve created a beautiful, fun, chill, and real down-to-earth (frozen Tundra!) experience. All details matter: land-/sea-scape views, music, commentary (human and dog)! We love it all, and we adore you, Christoffer and the Mighty Grim ❤ Congratulations on your NY Times bestseller! I’m going to buy it for Crist-mas! 😊
Congratulations on making the NYTBS list. So Proud of you. :) You are amazing and I feel like I know you since I've been watching your videos for so many years. Celebrate! :)
I just love, love, love you videos Cecilia! They bring so much tranquility in a world (at least where a lot of us live) that's so busy all the time. Thank you for sharing a piece of your life and Grim with us. We appreciate it very much. ❤
Just got to the part about your book…OMGGGG CONGRATULATIONS!! You deserve this win, Cecilia!! You’re such a hard worker and beautiful human in this wild world!! Grateful for you🙏🏻♥️
I'm in Ontario and its dark around 6 pm and I hide I realize, and don't enjoy the dark because I live in a city, we are having issues with drug addicts, I'm afraid to walk at night....I can see that you don't have that fear, nobody there to surprise attack you and beat you up or steal your dog..I realize you have to carry a gun for polar bears...but they are not hiding behind a bush...I think I need to find away to enjoy our darkness....so happy your book is receiving the accolades it deserves...congratulation
I’m literally crying for you. Happy tears. CONGRATULATIONS!!!! That is so exciting. My 5 year old grand baby watches your videos with me. She loves Grim. She is so fascinated by the polar night. And she can’t believe you’re not trick or treating lol.
I remember finding you during COVID and you did that video where it was like 'get ready with me to go to work' when you worked at the school. How time flys!
Congratulations on your book! Your videos make me long for a quieter way of life in a beautiful place. Keep the great content coming and give Grim a hug from me ❤
You SO deserve being on the New York Times Best Seller list. Well done! I find all your videos fascinating and comforting at the same time. I love the Weather Watches you do. Congratulations. PS oh and I'd love to see a warm red sofa rug to give the cabin warmth. Just an idea.
Thank you, Cecilia, for another lovely video. I received your book during the week, and I've started to read it. The photography is amazing, and I'm looking forward to reading more about your adventure in Longyearbyen. I'm in Scotland, and the clocks gave gone back, 4pm, and the sky is getting darker. I hate our winter greyness esp the days when it stays grey to dark grey all day and it's dark by 3.30! I know Icouldn't manage Polar Night but I appreciate the beauty of your surroundings, and also the feeling of calm which you capture so well in your videos. Congratulations on the success of your book and all the best for polar night 24/25!😊
Hi Cecelia, Chrisopher, Grim, This is so much FUN.. The scenery, the colors of your the Elegance it brings... I love getting ready for Polar Nights.... Hugs from Cali It's almost 10am 84° ,here Hugs
Thank you for taking us along with you and Grim as you count down to the polar night. I especially love the little tidbits we learn from you about Svalbard-like the no spiders or bugs. I live in Texas so I cannot even begin to comprehend what it’s like not having those creepy crawlers around all the time (I think I would like it though🙂).
Yay! A nice and long video for my daughter and I to watch as we always do each week. You both and Grim help keep our work anxiety at bay, for just a little while 😊
I'm pretty sure this is my 4th or 5th polar night with you ~ ever since your cabin extension! Wild stuff! I went back to your archives, but your old videos aren't showing up in youtube, so I can't see how far back I've been following. Also, I miss you grocery shopping, so thank you for taking us along! 😂 Huge congratulations for the NYTimes best sellers! I knew it would happen! 💜💜 Marianna
I look forward to your videos every Sunday morning. It’s a nice way to start the day. Oh yeah, my husband bought your book for me as a birthday present…. It arrives tomorrow, I’m so excited!
