      I feel like I've found my weather soul sister. Now I will admit that I don't like snow when we have to drive as we live in the Twin Cities of MN but we too have beautiful falls and winters. I love when it starts to get dark earlier. I love the smell of a fire and I tell my husband all the time that I want to be cozy. You describe it all so perfectly that I'm making him watch this. Thanks for what you do and for bringing peace to my anxiety disorder and PTSD. You have a gift. Have a lovely Fall.

    I'm in Svalbard now. It is really beautiful and (as I love cold weather too) I'm so glad I chose to come in September. On another note, I met Grim at the suppermarket. He kissed my face and tackled me to the ground (more like I lost my balance). He's such a cutie pie! Yaaay, Grim! Celebrities of Svalbard. 🐶🥰

    Celia … I was born in northern Canada but moved away for work many years ago. Last year I decided to move back home - my aging parents needed my help. Everyone who knew me said… omg.. you’re crazy… the winters ! They are so long cold and dark… but I grew up going to school in the dark and coming home in the dark and when it’s all you knew… it was just normal 😊. I was worried though I wouldn’t be able to return and re adjust to this northern world but I have and I absolutely love it. ❤ You played a large part in reminding me of it calm, quiet ,natural beauty… I’m shocked by how much I missed it while away. The smells the seasonal shift the dark cozy of the blue purple winter nights while siting in the warmth of the house with a coffee and a book. Thank you sweet Celia for helping me to know I wasn’t crazy to want to be here… the north is magical and it’s deep in my bones. I LOVE your channel 🙏🫶thank you for all that you do,
    - fantastic work x Joan 😊

    One thing I noticed when I visite Svalbard in 2018 is how welcoming everyone was. I'm Dutch and have visited many parts of Scandinavia. My country and the Nothern ones kind of have a reputation of not being the friendliest, with people keeping to themselves a lot. That wasn't the case at all on Svalbard. I couldnt go anywhere without people asking me about myself and if I wanted to join them for activities. It was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life.

I know for me it provides a welcome respite from the demands of life. I've dreamed of traveling all my life, so I am ever grateful for a peek into another world far from my own. I hope you know that you bring a lot of joy & calm to the masses out here. And you manage to stay a genuinely likable & down-to-earth individual in the meantime. I enjoy your older videos (which I'm still catching up on) as much as the new. I hope you can continue this glorious ride with us as long as its feasible/enjoyable for you, Christoffer, & a little-crazy-but-loving-&-cute Grim. :) His energy is impressive. lol.

    So funny how differently the seasons affect different people. Winter is just draining for me, my energy is so low and I have to struggle all the time to get everything done. I love the peeks at Svalbard but I really would never be able to live there during winter. But a very valuable thing I've learned from you, Cecilia, is to accept winter as an integral part of the cycle, and to take it as an opportunity to create coziness and rest. It's not always possible because society kind of expects everyone to perform at the same level during all seasons (what a dumb idea), but giving myself permission to be tired and need more rest during winter has taken some of the sting out of it. So thank you for that. :) autumn is really underway here as well, thank god not as cold yet as where you are, but I am trying to appreciate the nice things about this season; the colours, the produce, the cozy clothes, the movie nights! Excited to be inspired again this year by your love of polar night and winter. :)

    Considering how much time you must spend scraping your windshield, I feel like a windshield cover could change your life. When you get back home, just pop it on and close the windows around the side flaps to secure it, and when you want to go anywhere, just take it off and you have a clean, ice-free windshield. The Svalbard winds might make this a non-option but sharing just in case. LOVE your videos by the way, thanks for sharing your life in such an amazing place.

      How often do you have to shovel your sidewalks? I have to do them every hour or two here in central PA. I remember when I used to love snow and stay in cooking and baking and watching out the picture window while my father would have to shovel and my parents would go out to work no matter the weather. But then I grew up and became an adult and I don’t like it anymore.

    Just getting a bit cool here and rainy . Your cozy home makes me look forward to the cold . We pray for snow here in tbe US . Im in Lancaster, PA . Global Warming has impacted our climate. Snow is now an occasional thing. 50 years ago it was a frequent thing . Seeing such an impact in a lifetime should make every senior , worldwide an agent for a green lifestyle . Our grandkids need a planet on which they can survive. Watching the glaicers melt is something thst should concern us all . Its natures not so early warning system .

    As a fellow cold-weather lover, I get happy just seeing YOUR seasons change! I've never experienced polar night, but I did spend New Years in Fairbanks, Alaska, once, and I could not have been more content with the cold and the dark. I love everything from autumn through spring and then I grump my way through summer. LOL.

    It's so refreshing to see how happy you are about snow, coldness, winter and darkness (cozy time and fresh air!)! So many youtubers who live with 4 seasons just seem to hate winter and they cry about it EVERY year how tiresome and uncomfortable it is. Thing is, most of these youtubers could do something about it (have enough money I mean) like renting a vacation home from Spain or something, but they rather keep moaning about it. I personally appreciate that we have four seasons. My favorite have changed from spring to autumn. Closer to the winter we get, I start to feel more peaceful. I do like summer, but summer feels somehow busy. Maybe most of us can't embrace our natural rythym with seasons and that's why they find late autumn/winter uncomfortable. As during winter naturally, we should rest and take our time, but unfortunately that is not an option for most of the people in busy society.

You do such a fantastic job of immersing us in the beauty of Svalbard. As an autumn/winter girl too, Svalbard is on my 5 year plan. Polar nights!!

    I’m not nearly as far north as you are, but within the past week it’s started getting cooler, the nights crisper, and you can feel that fall has begun. Colors are starting to change on trees. It’s my favorite time! I love cozy sweaters and the spices used in autumn drinks and dishes, and overcast rainy weather. And we’re likely less than a month away from our first little bits of snowfall here, so it makes me happy! ❤ ❄️ I’m the same as you: the cold weather makes me feel more alive! I feel so demotivated in the summer when it’s hot lol

    Cecilia... Your videos are always amazing with the content as well as the cinematography! This one hit me differently for all the good reasons. You captured the beauty of the changing season magnificently!!! Your giddiness of the changes was also felt through the video. I felt calm and content while watching this video. I told my wife, "if we make it to Svalbard," and she corrected and said "When we go to Svalbard....". She knows how much I want to go there and said she'll make it happen! One day.......

    Great episode again, Cecilia and Christoffer! Your videos are always one of the highlights of my week, for real!
    No one really understands me when I say that I'm a winter person, so I totally get what you're saying in this video. The winter gives me energy as well. Most people have the opposite. It's actually nice to love the winter, because it makes it much easier to go through this dark season. Of course, the darkness affects your body, but having a positive mindset makes a big difference.
