Very nice video. I think you got lucky with the rain, it makes the landscape look even better. Btw i was just about a few weeks ago at Sørstraumen (11:30) fishing and camping, we drove there all the way from Rauma, Finland. It's cool to see someone else like you just driving by really close to the place, you should've stopped there for some Cod and Saithe.
I was tempted to stop at many places, but we just didn't have the time. I will go back... by the way we also visited Rauma on the way back to Helsinki. Thank you!
Howdy Robert,thanks a lot for sharing yet another magnificent video here on your experiences in Norway.A real 'titbit' to watch and relish,as usual.Cordial greetings from William in Bruges,Belgium,Europe
Being someone who grew up in this constant overcast rainy cold climate, you reminded me why I got out of there. Yuk!! Enjoy your vacation Robert and I know you'll be so happy when you get back to the sunny world. You're definitely taking one for the team so to speak. No need for solar panels there...and think too, this is their NICE time of year!
Ehm, there was a long period of rainy weather in the north of norway this summer, much more than normal. In the south we were sweating our arses off in a 3 month long heatwave. After Robert left the heatwave struck the north as well, with temperaturs up to 30 degrees celcius. He was just unlucky with his timing.
I escaped southern Norway, to Northern Norway, to get some liveable conditions. I am glad I did. Robert was extra unlucky. I had a handfull of sunny days in the two weeks I was there. The midnight sun is unbeatable. You don't have that in LA.
James Farnham I thought the same thing...wonder how many sunny days in a year they have! I wouldn’t be able to live here. So thankful I can see it through Roberts viewing!
nice stuff Robert, Norway looks beautiful, it looks more interesting and mountainous than Finland, guess it depends where you go. I’m hopefully gonna do a road trip similar next year so this is good to watch 👍✊
Hi. I have noticed one special about German RV users. They travel trough out of Europe and find beautiful places, but what they do? They elevate their satellite antennas and start watching TV. Who needs TV when traveling in Norway? It can also be seen on 9:43. By the way, great video once again. Tero
Great job on your videos! It's great that you can do them in 4k, it takes a lot of computing power for editing those. Also appreciate the drone footage you are able to do, too! Excellent!!
sorry to be off topic but does anybody know a trick to get back into an instagram account? I was stupid lost the login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Abraham Javier Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm trying it out now. I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
Robert, Norway is a place most of us will never see, and you showed us in your usual awesome way. We also think your music is perfect for your videos. Hope to see more. Thank you!
The views,..the conversation,..great editing, and I've got to say I love this song!!!!!! Is it online where I can buy it?? I have had that song on my mind...Love the angel 'ahhhhhh' part. Lol.
Sometimes I just cant believe places like these exist...God is so good. As always Mr. Robert you take such awesome video and I can tell you put a lot of effort into them. Thanks so much for always taking us along on these journeys! I hope to one day visit sites like these and other places.
Thank you very much for another great video with spectacular views, Robert! And could you please name music track that you use in the beginning and later in the video? It's very nice and i would like to find it to listen separately.
The "n" in "Rafsbotn" is pronounced. 8:38 You didn't stop to look at the petroglyphs in Alta? 9:49 Hum, I don't think of "Lefse" as flat bread, but ok. We *do* have a tradition for flat breads, but they look different. 13:07 Not harvesting, that is a fish farm. Essentially they're breeding fish there to sell instead of fishing it from the sea.
Fantastic video congratulations, just a brief question , what time of the year you did it . Thank you for keeping us so absorbed in your great explorations , and fabulous descriptions
You may have already answered this, but I would be interested in knowing the MPG's you got on that diesel rig with a standard transmission.. Shame we can't get something like that in the states...
Great videos from Norway. Question...About how much does it cost to rent one of these rv's? I checked the Savonia website but couldn't find that info in English. Maybe I missed it. Thanks and Happy Travels!
Looks like Savonia's prices are around €1 100 - 1 200/week during high season (July-August) and under €700/week during low season (most winter months).
Not as much as it was this June when Robert visited. It was the wettest june ever recorded in this part of Norway. After he left, the heatwave struck Northern-Norway. Also, Norway is a looong country with different climatezones.
Savonia caravans rent their RVs from €700 to €1 200 / week depending on model and season. In Nordic countries diesel is around US$6.5 / gallon. And RV like the one Robert was driving makes around 15 to 25 MPG (of course depending on driving style).
So...Don't know how it happened but I had CC turned on during this video and got a kick out of the descriptions of the music which were displayed. You figure out which song was which ;-) Light Upbeat Pop music Diving Orchestral music Pulsating Electronic music Rhythmic Synthesizer music
just saw a picture of your wife as part of north cape video. She looks great and let her know she should be in your videos with you. Would love to have her point of view as you travel.
@@TravelingRobert Swede here. I have found it fun to browse US grocery stores, even in Florida, however as I've been staying in hotels I haven't really been able to cook much ;)
The northernmost part of Norway is in fact home to several ethnicities. In addition to Norwegians there are of course the Sami people who were the original inhabitants of the area. In the 18th and 19th century there was a significant influx of the Kven people from Finland, and in recent decades a number of people have also moved there from Russia.
Alot of north-norwegians are samis and kvens(finns that moved to Norway to build a better life). Most are a mix of ethnic norwegians and the mentioned minorities. The more south you get in northern Norway, the less there are of these minorites.
