All my life ive wanted to go somewhere to see them and have never had money to and i actually got to see it here at home ❤❤❤❤

As an Aussie, the idea of 24/7 brightness and darkness are hard to get my mind around, even though I've been watching your videos for several years now! On another note, we've been able to see the Aurora Australis from some parts of southern Australia over the last couple of days thanks to the solar flares, and it reminded me of the northern lights in your videos 😊

@Kate-vt7zj 24 дня назад

Same. I was hoping a Aussie would comment about that. How gorgeous has it been?! Hi from Melbourne 😉

We were keeping an eye out for the Aurora Australis too, but I think we're too far north (Coffs Coast). And most of the time it's been cloudy and rainy...of course LOL

@wendyhoward472 24 дня назад

Hi, from Mid Queensland Australia. Where a cold overnight for us is 5 c I cant stand the cold but if you can where you live is incredibly beautiful. Cant imagine how breathtaking it must be in real life.

@dwitch 25 дней назад

Sensory overload! Every year I watch and I think to myself. I’d be speed cleaning my house at 3 am cos my brain wouldn’t shut off. I’d want to constantly look out at that view. I completely understand why you call it zombie season. Your brain starts thinking it’s going to miss something! Polar Day is gorgeous but I definitely get why you’re exhausted all the time. Enjoy your break!🥰

@Yesica1993 22 дня назад

I was thinking way too much about this and I have come to this conclusion as well. I get very depressed/sick in Chicago from the darkness in winter. I know I could never handle Polar Night. But this... may be more mentally exhausting. Your brain associates light/day with activity. My mind races all the time anyway. This would make it never stop!

@cdaprice3416 19 дней назад

As much as I love sunshine, I think having it constantly would drive me crazy. For whatever reason, the dark is comforting. Always love seeing you, Christofer and Grimm

@alba5537 24 дня назад

I live in a chaotic family in a super chaotic huge city and I envy you so much Cecilia, if I had the money or a good remote job, believe me I'd move there immediately. I love the cold and the snow and the peace and nature. I wish you all the best and thank you for your videos. You need to know you're living the life a lot of us would love to live but can't.

@celticlass8573 25 дней назад

Having light-blocking covers on your windows that you put down at about 7pm, and putting your light switches on automatic dimmers that will simulate the sun setting, would do absolute wonders for your circadian rhythm during polar summer. 🙂 Once the lights are off, you can just use a warm task-light that won't keep you awake, and would be very cozy.

@Nemrai 24 дня назад

Thing is though, that you may still need or want to be outside to do stuff also after 7 pm. Few people stay completely indoors for 7 pm.

@1ACL 24 дня назад

Good advice. ..And...I doubt there's much to do there "out" in the evenings anyway.

@l.b.3148 24 дня назад

Our longest day is until 10 pm. And I love it! And I wish it was like that year round. In college, I learned to sleep whenever, even if all the lights are on or shades are open. Being happy it's beautiful and sunny, and you are on the green side of the earth as they say, it's good 24/7. 😎

@celticlass8573 24 дня назад

I saw the northern lights all over the sky directly above Sheffield, England on Friday night. That's once in a lifetime. It was like pearly white ribbons of light stretched and spread right across the sky with a bright green glow over the Eastern horizon. Geomagnetic activity was that high, getting on 5000 nT.

@sandrabugler9813 25 дней назад

We also had northern lights in Massachusetts USA on Friday.

@KTocci66 24 дня назад

I can TOTALLY relate Cecilia, I live in Alaska and it's the same, only our nearly 24hrs of daylight starts end of May. Currently we do have 2 hrs of "light dark, dusk" from 0130-330. So there's at least that for now I agree with you about the Polar days being more difficult and tiring than the Polar nights! Thank you for sharing your day with us. Stay blessed 🌷💐

@brizzle3903 15 дней назад

@margymckenzie7417 23 дня назад

i love that after a number of yeats living there, you still notice and appreciate the beauty of where you live. it would be easy to become a little blimd to something you see every day, but you seem to always make a point to admire the gorgeous landscape and recognise that it is a gift to be in such a unique environment, while also respecting the sometimes dangerous elements. i love this channel because it gives me something so far out of my usual experience and cos i love you guys...and grim!. thank you.

So beautiful, Cecilia. The view of the fjord off your deck brought me to tears. Might you consider a live cam stream off your deck overlooking the water…? My grandfather taught me to row when I was a little girl. The idea of rowing just off from your cabin…. Wow. I can easily imagine just sitting out there for hours. Nirvana.
