About Cecilia:
Cecilia Blomdahl is originally from Sweden and moved to Svalbard 7 years ago. She works as a photographer and videographer in Longyearbyen, and with her social media channels. Check her out on tiktok and instagram under her handle @sejsejlija! Here on youtube she posts videos about her daily life in her cabin with her boyfriend Christoffer and her dog Grim, living just outside of Longyearbyen. Subscribe for videos about her daily life as well as adventures on an island close to the North Pole. They have polar bears there!
Christoffer's waffle segment was prime cooking show energy, and now making waffles out in a snow storm is added to my bucket list haha!
I liked how breakfast is happening after 2pm.
@@pablodelsegundo9502 the best breakfast is always the breakfast foods you eat when it's not the morning haha!
The only think I can compare this to is hot tubbing in the snow. My bestie & hubs have a time share and she invited me many many years ago to have a girls weekend in Squaw Valley/Tahoe/Truckee area where the Olympics were held in the 1960s. We were in a cute little chalet. It was snowing and so we put our swim suits on and then our ski suits on top and went to the outdoor hot tub. I think we had wine or chamgagne. It was the most glorious thing ever!! She wants us to do it again next year!
Well Ecoflow got there sponsorship monies worth with this video compared to a few others I’ve seen today. No fast forward for this advertisement.
Don’t forget the brown cheese. It is delicious 🤤🤤🤤
I am absolutely loving Christoffer’s segments in your videos! Remembering back from when he was essentially silent, and I just love seeing more of his personality shining through in these videos a little more each time
What a delicious and beautiful looking waffle that Christopher made ..so nice to see both of you in the videos interact !!
Same.
Agreed. They are so cute together
I am ready for waffles and coffee! ☕️🧇😋🥓
Losing trust in the power grid made me decide to get the Delta 2. Even if there is no power I can still charge it theu solar panels.
Yeah that doesn't work there when there is no sun to charge the cells
@@InstantAquatics jackery is the same. 1-3 kw
@@InstantAquatics all good!! ^^
But,,,,no sun thus no solar
@@Shinzon23 did u forget about how for literally 4 months of the year there the sun doesnt set lol
The best thing aboutbthe Delta 2 is that it fully charges in about 80 minutes and that is really fast.
I think it will accept a 85% charge in 50 minutes or in less than a hour -
It's not a good idea to fast charge on a regular basis - it shortens the battery life - if your using a generator and are limited to fuel on hand then the one hour charge rate is very beneficial -
Sail boats that cross the oceans often use the one hour charge rate to charge there house battery's once a day to converse fuel -
This life of yours Cecilia can be summed up in one word : PEACE..Being introverted myself, Svalbard is the perfect world to live in..all this serenity and tranquility is just priceless..
YES!! Agreed!
I’m with you too.
I think this Delta 2 is right for the job. It has 1024Wh and I am able to add an extra battery to increase the capacity.
I have only discovered your channel this past weekend and I binge watched so many of your videos while being at home with a cold. I live in northern Germany and have disliked the winter season my whole life- especially because of the darkness. But this morning when I woke up at 6 AM to get ready for work, it felt so much easier to embrace the dark season and that's entirely due to your positivity and the way you make darkness and the cold feel so magical and cozy 😍 So thank you, Cecilia, from the bottom of my heart! I'm so happy I found your channel ❤
I just found her and Christopher and of course we can’t forget Mr. Graham channel . I’ve been binging it also. I love it.
I lived in Bremerhaven and the seasons were really different for me. I enjoyed and miss !
She's help me embrace the cold as well. That is a miracle! Haha
Some tipp for the outages: You could get a special wallplug installed to connect the Ecoflow to your houses powergrid (in Germany they are called Wieland Plugs - used for example for small solar power generators on a balcony). In case of a power outage disconnect your main breaker, plug the ecoflow "in your house" and your toilette and lights should be good for around 5+ hours. Maybe you can get Ecoflow to Sponsor another Video and send one of the big units just for the house. You are the first honest to god real usecase I have seen in all the EcoFlow Sponsorships ...
I'm sitting here thinking along the same lines.
wondering solar part and the near total darkness this time of year - and into months. I thought of a Jackery - but it needs sunlight/solar
@@bencynbennett8963 jackerys can be charged off mains electricity too 😊
@@bencynbennett8963 Jackerys can be charged in an outlet when you have power... they can work with solar but they don't have to
They do have that one but you need the EcoFlow delta pro
Christoffer needs to write a cook book I really enjoy when he's cooking and it's easy to see he really enjoys cooking.
I would definitely buy a cookbook/story book by him!
As would I. I would just need a conversion to grams, ml, tablespoon etc. ughhh. The USA should REALLY teach the metric system as it is used round the 🌎
I would buy this for my partner for Christmas or birthday.
I also would buy a cookbook from him.
So Interested in the cooking machine they use. What is it exactly and what is everything it can do?
I usually have seasonal affective disorder every winter and somehow watching the ways you embrace the cold and dark with comfort and joy is helping me shift my perspective. ❤ Thank you for sharing your good vibes!
Same! And it makes my winter seem so easy in comparison. All around her channel is making the coming winter seem less scary 😊
funny, i have seasonal affective disorder as well, just opposite! i love watching this because the winter where i live is so mild and i love the cold so much and heat makes me so depressed.
Me too
Love that you are so positive and make any annoying incident (power outage & snow during your outdoor picnic) into an opportunity for a comfy, cozy and delicious family time together. 💕❄️ 👩❤️👨🐾
🥰🥰🥰
@@CeciliaBlomdahl agreed!
You are a breath of fresh air ❤
One word………. COZY!
You both do a wonderful job of being so soothing and upbeat. I like how you matter of factly detail out the equipment you use, how you manage day to day activities and demonstrate how you live in a unique place. The storms you guys get would intimidate me. Feeling like a tiny speck in a very big world but very beautiful.
Let’s face it most of us couldn’t hack living in a place like Svalbard, you’d HAVE to be positive in order to make the most of the darkness in winter and try to sleep during the summer! I live near Vancouver Island and it gets dark enough in winter here. We get snow and ice but not like east coast or places like Svalbard 😎
@@CeciliaBlomdahl I want to join your plz 🌹🥀🌻🌺🌼 you join me plz 🌹🥀🌻🌺🌼🌹 ma'am I'm excited for join you plz 🌹🥀🌻🌺 your WhatsApp plz 🌹🥀🌻🌺🌼 I'm From India I'm a boy I'm single 35
If there was an Oscar for what you’ve been doing, you would definetly get it! Your videos are amazing Cecilia! They really are.. Thank you for sharing your life in Svalbard. Much love from Turkey❤
I was shocked to see the maple syrup was from Stonewall Kitchens in Kittery, Maine USA. I thought it was a fairly local brand, didn't expect to see it thousands of miles away on a remote Norwegian island.
Stonewall kitchen is all over the US and the world. Go Maine!
York, Maine!!! I spent 27 summers in York.
I see Stonewall stuff here all the time & i'm in San Francisco :) (born Mainer tho)
I was more shocked they did not have any jam!!!! How can a food store not have jam lol :)
@@astidog They went to a small kiosk called Mix as the supermarket wasn't open yet. I'm surprised they even had syrup to be honest as such stores will mostly sell magazines, fast food, snacks, various items for your car and maybe have a tiny selection of groceries.
Just a tip for the EcoFlow. Great units but like mine, it has fans on the side of unit. If your moving it or packing it, put some painters tap over the fan vents until you use it. The only issue with EcoFlow is they need fans to keep the circuits cool. The problem is moisture( snow, rain ) plus electric circuits is BAD. I’ve found some painters tape will extent it’s life. Love your content, keep it coming.
Thanks for the tip John. I'm thinking of buying one soon so this is useful info.
@@amyariffin EcoFlow, after much research is currently the the leader in battery based generators, but with that crazy fast recharge rate comes a ton of heat. With todays tech, there is really no way to not have fans if you want those impressive numbers ( charge rate, discharge rates etc). My only two issues is the fan vents suck in snow, dust, etc with the air, so be aware. Also, it’s easy for debris or moisture to get in during storage/transport if the vents are not sealed ( painters tape works great). I would still buy it, even with everything I know now. Enjoy your unit.
@@JOHNSMITH-vd1nsgood to know ty!
Aren’t the boards conformal coated?
And how have you discovered that the tape will extend the life? Did you have two and left the tape off one?
@@SirHackaL0t. Hi, interesting questions. I have seen there is quality finned heat sinks on the circuit boards between the fans. With dirt and dust, I feel we both can agree will limit heat transfer and make it less efficient over time. During real world use, I noticed the units are pretty sealed up except the air intake and exhaust fan ports. If you are simply using this only in your home, then I would not take any further protection. But if your using this for camping, construction etc. $2 painters tape can prevent debris/insects during transport or storage. I have not scientifically tested this. But common sense shows less moisture, dust and debris will allow the machine to work at optimal for longer. Whether the boards are coated or not, I not sure. I expect some coating to be present but as I am not a electrician, I cannot speak on that fact.
Oh my gosh. I’m from Maine and this is the first video I watched of yours and when I saw Maine maple syrup I’m like crying because that’s so special. I didn’t realize people around the world got to try our syrup. That amazes me. I’m so excited to binge all your videos.
“It’s only 0°”. My British self shivering at that thought 😂. Been following you, Kristoffer and Grim for a while now and I still find Svalbard such a magical place. Thanks for sharing with us 💜
Used to see the Northern lights quite a bit as a child. We always had the rumour that if you whistled to them, they would dance. It was bit eerie that when you did whistle and they started dancing.
I love the sound of the crunchy snow underfoot, my favourite, Polar Nights! The Northern Lights are definitely magical💖 Chris cooking waffles in the snow was amazing, so good to see you guys embracing your surroundings as usual, I think we would all love sharing a day with you both( and Grim of course) and share the beautiful waffles xxx💖💖
That crunchy sound ……means it is reallyCOLD!
Watching you guys live the most amazing life in Svalbard as changed my whole attitude towards winter this year (life long upper midwesterner, US)!!! I usually dread it and go into hibernation but now I want to play outside in the snow and the cold!!! Thank you!!! ❤
Awww I love that!! 😍😍😍
I think this is the first YT promo where I actually wanted the promo item! So good job Cecilia! It helps that I live in the sub arctic, and that we have are own power issues.
Yaaay!! It really is such an invaluable thing to have, especially living like we do. Where abouts are you located? 😃
@@CeciliaBlomdahl Outside of Fairbanks, Alaska!
And brown cheese is so delicious! I have had the reindeer kind!
I had the same thoughts when reading It Ends With Us, I was confused why everyone loved this book. Its a lot of fluff in the beginning, but everything comes together in the end. Its such a beautiful message and the ending is really sad, but so good! Keep reading I swear it gets better :)
Ohhhhh okok, I will keep reading and look forward to it a bit more now haha
@@CeciliaBlomdahl oh I am sorry to say that sour cream on waffles did not agree with my taste buds at all !!! I have eaten in a lot of different countries and am not fussy but that combo of sour cream and maple syrup did me in !! Can u ask Christoffer to tell us if he is using plain flour or self raising flour in his recipes...I am an awful cook and need exact instructions...I adore your channel and have been sharing it to all my Australian friends...your work is amazing 👏
Cecilia's happy waffle dance could be a meme for pure happiness❤
😍🧡
This is my second year watching your channel and I never tire of learning about daily life in such a remote village 😊 I admire the way you and Christoffer adapt to whatever circumstances come your way and just get on with life! Also wonderful to see Christoffer cooking again ☺ Cheers from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
The way you live is my literal dream! So peaceful, none of the commotion and craziness of the USA. Svalbard truly seems like a dream town. I saw someone else comment with a suggestion of a "Svalbard travel pack", and I think that would be a great idea! What would one need to travel here?
Love your videos so much! Thank you for giving me a feel for something I may never get to experience outside of UA-cam. So glad to go through my first polar night with you!
I never thought of winter as the season to hike, but now I'm going to try to remind myself that this is hiking season! Thank you for helping me keep winter in perspective!
I like hiking in winter way more than summer 😍 So beautiful and crisp and the fresh air 🙏💙
@@CeciliaBlomdahl I can see that angle, as long as snow is not knee deep😉
Sorry to hear about your power cuts. Thank goodness for candles.
PS: loved your dancing shimmy while eating the waffle and holding your latte. You’re a true gem and a beautiful spirit. The world needs more Cecilia’s. Plus, I just had a baby last week and while I was pregnant, I’d play your videos and lay my phone on my belly. Now, Patrick goes right to sleep when I play your videos after he’s done eating. We’ve decided that his theme will be polar bears and once I have some extra moola and he gets a little bigger, I’m going to order some of your stuff with the Polar Bears. I told him we’re going to Svalbard and to look for the polar bears when he’s old enough. He can’t wait to meet you either and I would love to have him take “How to be a good boyfriend/How to cook” classes from Cristoffer 😅🎉😂haha. Love you guys.
Yes, the lil waffle dance! What a fun day. Thank you for sharing. Those waffles look amazing.
Totally different lifestyle from where I live. It fascinates me... the place, the weather, the people.
I love it when Christoffer is cooking 🧑🍳 Love from Cambridgeshire UK
A warm fire, candles, fluffy sweet dog, good book... Heaven. Just found your channel. I am loving it.
😍🧡🧡🧡
Yay! A second video in one week? Wow! I was so happy to come home after a 12 hour work day to watch this. Loved Christoffer's waffle part. But Grim was the star of the show as per usual. Loved seeing Grim especially at the end of the video.
In South Africa we are use to power outages on a daily basis. So refreshing to see another country also experience our daily bane.
Never had waffles like those before. Going to try it. Awesome video as usual Cecilia, Christoffer and Grimm 🥰
Also from South Africa, makes me feel so much better to see they have these problems. Though I believe the rest of their inftastructure remains way better than ours. Best of!!
@@eben6787 I concur. All in all they are still better off than our failing and unkept electricity grid
It’s lovely to see how cozy they make their home and using the EcoFlow
I've said it countless times before, but please keep doing what you're doing. I enjoy your content so much
Your pronunciation of revontulet was so adorable, perfectly understandable but adorable. Finnish is so different from other Nordic languages so Swedes usually have hard time with Finnish 😅
Good job! 🐣
I need more Christoffer cooking tutorials. So relaxing 🤗
Ahhhh the cozyness of your home ... I feel like I've been wrapped in a warm blanket 💖
Thank you for sharing 🥰
Thank you for the mid week surprise! Hop you are enjoying the week!❤❤
Loved your waffle picnic, Christoffer is such a good guy, rock solid and so cozy that he enjoys cooking delicious food and is such a natural with it! Had no idea you experience power outages, that Ecoflow is a game changer and thank goodness you have a wood stove! Hopefully get the power plant issues fixed soon!!
Please receive my virtual hug from Kyiv ❤ Living with power outages is not comfortable.
Wow! Love to hear that you can mine coal locally. Anything that makes you more self-sufficient in a remote region is awesome
The town was founded as a town for the workers at the local coal mine. Which was founded by an American named John Munro Longyear. And that is how Longyearbyen got its name.
Q: Can you burn coal in your stove? If not,it would be a good idea to have a coal-burning stove in your place.
Love seeing more of Christoffer! I've never heard him speak so many words in a row. :) I'm guessing it's a little outside his comfort zone so well done, Christoffer!
Amazing videography, I totally relax when I watch your videos, makes me feel all warm and cozy. Thank you to all 3 of you, Grim is adorable xxx
I love how Christopher is so calm and kind and fun. Lucky you.
I love your positive vibes. In this world filled with toxicity I find you and your lifestyle very inspirational. I am fascinated by the arctic and so glad I found your channel. I'm learning a lot.
Love the videos I just found your channel a week ago ... as a Canadian who spends time off grid in sub arctic conditions your lives are fascinating keep up the great work
What a beautiful way to spend a morning, just perfect! Christoffer always comes alive when he's cooking - would he love his own UA-cam cooking channel?! 🥞✨
What a great idea, I kind of get the impression that Christofer has hidden talents (cooking being one of them).
Isn't 2pm afternoon already? Mid afternoon? So confused by the times referred to..
@@geeb4994 Not so hidden! Cecilia has mentioned him being trained as a chef multiple times in past videos.
I have been following your videos for about a year and love learning about the other side of the world. I am in Indiana, USA. Your newly refurbished cabin looks soooo cozy .... even during power outages! Hugs to you & Christoffer & Grim!
Yay! More adventures with Cecilia, Christoffer and Grim! Your light shines bright in the polar night Cecila bringing warmth, joy and gratitude to this world. So happy to have found y’all! Hugs and love from Idaho, USA! 😍❤️
We all hope you’re staying safe. May God bless you always.
Here in South Africa we have "loadshedding" every day. It is because we only have one electricity supplier and that means we have different"stages" stage one is only the hot water geysers and from stage 2 and up it is all power of for 2 hours every 6 hours stage 6 is two hours on and 2 hours off. Lots of love from South Africa 🇿🇦
We have all your barnacle geese here with us at Caerlaverock wetland nature reserve, Solway Firth, Scotland and they fly over our house every day to go to the fields for food. We absolutely love them coming down from Svalbard for the winter, just to hear them flying over, the noise they make love it as they are nearly home for the winter, so much respect for them, its a long way from Svalbard. I rush out the door when i hear them coming to watch them in their droves just flying over in October and again when they go back home in April.
Love all your videos, they are amazing, thankyou. xxx
"Sometimes you don't have to go very far to find a little adventure"...oh, just beautiful.
I love all of your videos, they are my favourite. You guys live in such a beautiful place even the dark polar nights are magical!
Love your cozy life during polar night but I wouldn't last long before I was craving daylight and sunshine. Do you plan on going to see your parents part way through? Love it when Christoffer makes something. Those waffles, simple to make, looked delish. Of course can't leave gorgeous Grim out. Such a happy dog when you are out with him. 🥰
Sooooo cool, making waffles out in the snow! ❤❤❤
You'll need to keep your I-Pad fully charged and downloaded with Grim's favorite shows just to keep your baby boy entertained during power outages. Haha,😂 What shows does he like? As a child I always loved it when the power went out and my mom would light a bunch of candles. My parents, along with my three brothers and myself would all pile into the living room with the candles and fireplace to sleep. Fun times!! Christoffer's waffle recipe, along with the sweet caramelized goat cheese, sour cream and maple syrup sounded delicious. For years, maple syrup, along with some real butter, and maybe a couple shakes of powered sugar, was the traditional way nearly everyone ate their pancakes or waffles here in the northeastern part of the United States. Now days, however, there are many variations. From peanut butter topped chocolate chips, to yogurt or whipped cream topped with berries. As always, much love!! 💞 Stay warm and enjoy these awesome polar nights. ❄Looking forward to the next vlog!🥰
Happy to know that svalbard is self sufficient on energy and think of their residents first.
Not self sufficient for long if really making energy generation switch to diesel since it will have to be shipped in. Certainly not less of a carbon footprint in that case either.
@@WallyWaldorf22gmailc yeah i dont get that
plus those battery power generators or whatever those are - eventually will end up in the landfill... and it only supplies the town with 30 more mins of
electircity? doesnt seem
worth it??
@@dianeandbrad529 I don’t disagree… I think she may have mis-spoke. I think it was that the battery packs were to offset heavy load bearing & stabilize the power supply. Kind of like a fragile grid when everyone gets off work and has multiple house lights on, wash going, air conditioner (not applicable there) but you get the idea…..
Cecilia you are an honest soul ,love your simplicity and accent 👍👍👍
The algorithm just gifted your channel to me. I am literally binging it all. Thank you for such wonderful production and genuinely good vibes
I grew up eating gjetost with my Norwegian grandmother in the US. So fun to see it here!
I loved this! Here in Michigan we are getting our first big snow over Thursday night into Friday night. Hopefully we can get out for a walk! 😊
Michigan here too we had quite a bit of lake effect yesterday. This was our first big snow also and it’s supposed to end tomorrow.
I’m nice and cozy!
Upper Peninsula here ! Seems like similar climates in the winter 😂
@@sundownstudios502 the UP is so gorgeous. When my ex was training to be a state cop we were hoping to start out in the UP. Cecilia and Christopher look much more comfortable eating waffles outside in freezing weather than I would ever be! I’m in SW Michigan right by the lake and we get a lot of lake effect snow and I don’t mind that but freezing cold days I could do without.
How cold do the winters tend to be in the UP? And do you hate being called a Yupper as much as I hate being called a Michigander? 😂
@@alloralou4722 haha you are a troll as you live under the bridge. Don’t mind being called a yooper, I’m from Kentucky. Our winters can be harsh as we get lake effect snow. Lows can easily dip single digits and below zero often. I’m just outside of Newberry. Snow average about 200 inches per year
@@sundownstudios502 well that’s a hell of a lot of snow! We probably get less than half of that. And I forgot we were called trolls! I love that! I’ve been over the bridge a few times and I love it. My ex and I also once went to Beaver Island in the early spring, before the ferry started running and took a plane there and back. The pilot allowed it to be packed full and we heard him say something about the plane having too much weight to fly but he got it into the air. I’ve flown over the Atlantic and the Pacific but that flight over the lake was the most beautiful.
Also-before I knew her my ex’s grandma used to do the bridge walk, I think it was over Labor Day? She lived in northern Wisconsin and that was a beautiful area too.
Kentucky to the UP? I’ve been to Kentucky also and always thought it was a gorgeous state.
I recently found your channel and I love it! It's so cozy❤️🔥 Greetings from Poland😃
Minnesota girl here. This morning I woke up and thought I needed to make waffles this snowy cold morning. I enjoy Lingonberry jam ( from Sweden) and a dab of sour cream. I ate indoors but I will have to try to picnic outdoors this winter.
I work for the company where that maple syrup is from!! SO COOL to see it made it all the way out there ☺️ love your content!
The waffles were epic! Loved all the coziness as usual💜
It s always fun to see Chris in his element. Gordon Ramsay eat your heart out.
The beauty of your surroundings is breathtaking - day and night - warm and cold. I can understand why you are captivated living there.
Love you both. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us. Very precious. So interesting and encouraging. Particularly appreciate your love and enthusiasm for life with all its gifts and even the limitations. Sending you both warmest greetings from the tropics.
I live in New Hampshire and make our own maple syrup from our trees. We use it in everything.
Whaaat! How amazing! 😍
Christopher has changed waffles forever! Wow that looks so incredibly good! I wonder how many people get hungry watching you and Christopher eating in your videos? Enjoyed this so much, you make the Polar Night magical, I wonder how many people actually go there after seeing your videos? Keep up the great work! And thank you to Christopher demonstrating Svalbard cuisine!
@@cb.1212 Check any local cheese specific places (this is where I get mine, but I'm in Canada so it may differ!), the more high end grocery stores may carry them, or Amazon might offer it! It's usually not the cheapest thing out there, though!
I've seen them make waffles like this before at home in another video and so I had to buy the cheese and lingonberry jam to see what the hype was and OMG so darn good!
@@cb.1212 amazon but im also in SE and they have it at Whole foods near where I live
@@Americanmapping44 I thought of Whole Foods also.
I agree with your book opinion. Awesome coziness in your home! ❤
The waffles look delicious. 🧇🧇🧇🧇🧈 Good food when camping in the snow. ❄❄
I just love you two. Your so perfect together ❤️
So much fun to see your adventures!!
I’ve just found your channel 😊 My boyfriend introduced it to me, and I am loving it❤ We live in Scotland and I don’t like shorter days during the winter but watching you two makes me feel like that winter isn’t too bad! Looking forward to watching more. ⭐️
What a great place to enjoy waffles. That blue color looks great on you!
Grim could sell water to a fish. He is so cute!
I must try my waffle batter the way Christoffer does his!! They looked delicious! That looked like a fun adventure…
Much as I am in favour of reducing, and eventually eliminating, fossil fuels, I think Svalbard's coal plant should continue, given its small output and the fact that the fuel is locally sourced. Perhaps replacing with a 4th generation nuclear SMR when they become commercially available.
I love watching Christoffer cook!
Looks like fun 😊 I love how you both enjoy being together just being together enjoying the polar nights❤❤❤❤
Cecilia I love your channel and really love learning about where you live. I'm so impressed with what you're doing on UA-cam. Thank you for the great videos and I hope you get that power back on!
🙏🙏🧡🧡
So nice to see another video this week, Cecilia! This EcoFlow is a lifesaver in these situations. Luckily, we don't often have power outages here, but I can imagine it's useful for traveling (by car) to remote places as well. 😃
Ahhh, love this. I loooove how confident Christoffer is becoming on camera. Love watching you all and sharing your lives 💖💖💖💖💖💖
Love the happy dance. 😊 Life is good!
🧡🧡🧡
Mid week posts yes please! Your number of subscribers have gone crazy 👍
🥰🥰🥰🥰
Just wanted to say thank you. Your videos about getting vitamin D levels tested prompted me to do the same (I live in Scotland). And now I have a prescription for vitamin D tablets because mine was very low. 💙
Be careful as many UK doctors don't prescribe enough. I had a severe deficiency just over 10 years ago and it was only my own research with the help of an MS sufferer who alerted me to this. I then found my then new partner, friends, acquaintances, and strangers from around the UK were not being told to take sufficient amounts.
I am going to have mine checked in Scotland also, and I honestly have the exact symptoms of low vitamin D
Love Lindt chocolate. I can happily relax and chill with Lindt and a book. I often relax of an evening in the UK with only battery lights (rechargeable) and a good book.
Been studying for hours and needed a break this was prefect timing
I'll have to try that recipe out, seems to be a crispier version than the ones requiring the egg whites whipped until fluffy.
Let us know how it was! 😃
Cecilia, Thank you very much for your videos! They are so calming and positive - I'm sure they are helping a ton of people through fall and winter!
This is one of the coziest, most magical videos ever. I think I'm in LOVE with Polar Night!!!!! 💚
I just discovered you and now I have become addicted of your videos.
Greetings from Milano (Italy)
I didn’t like the book either but everyone I know loves it
Oh another question - Is anyone able to grow anything on their own in Svalbard? Either outdoors, like a small garden, or indoors, with artificial lighting for much of the year? I know you are above the arctic tree line so what is able to grow is very limited I’m sure! 😊 Love your content
The answer is NO - Cecelia said in a previous video that they have to protect the perma-frost. Nothing grows on Svarlbard. If they want a garden, they will have to either use window boxes or go hydroponics.
you also dont own land there- the government owns all
land and the people
rent it so shes said in another video you cant just put whatever you want on the property for that reason
im also guessng even if you could youd probably be limited to cold weather crops to grow in the summer
@@francescathomas3502 ahhhh the permafrost. This makes sense I hadn’t thought of that.
@@francescathomas3502 and hydroponics requires lighting so with power outages idk how that would work? I know a 1,000 hps light uses about the same amount of power as say a TV. I've wondered if they could use solar panels since they do get 4 months of straight sunlight and could store it for the 2.5months of darkness? All sounds fun but it'll get extremely expensive quick! Lol
Plus power to your pumps for hydro etc. It's take alot or power to do typical hydroponics. But I'm sure there's a way it can be done.
I have fallen in love with Grim, your photos and your videos. Thank you for showing us your world. It is absolutely magical. Hugs to all 3 of you. Blessed wishes for your Holiday. I will be watching.
Just found your channel I admire you guys so much! (I felt the same way when I read that book.)
Wind power must be a good option for electricity generation on svalbard, there must be a reason but I'm intrigued to know why it's not been implemented. Also those waffles looked great!
How does that power bank cope in the very cold? I know the cold can deplete batteries faster, can't it?
As always, I'm captivated by the views there and long to see it for myself. Thanks for sharing it with us!!! Love to you, Christoffer and of course, the handsome Grim❤️🐶❤️
Making waffles on a picnic table outside, in the dark, surrounded by the beautiful snow & quietness.....Supreme! ❄️ 💙
When I worked for the US Navy in California, the base I worked for had custody of an island off the coast that was used for military operations. There are around 200 people that live and work out there. Electricity for the island comes from a central power plant that houses five diesel generators of various capacities. They usually run one or two generators depending on the load. These generators run on JP6 jet fuel. At one point, we were putting in seven wind turbines, but for some reason the project was cancelled. Anyway, diesel generators should be more reliable than coal burning units. You could easily have big waffle parties on the back deck in the snow too!
