HURRICANE & EXTREME STORM. My 1st Fall Full Time Van Living. Heavy Rain Weather Vanlife Solo Camping
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- Van Life Camping in Hurricane, Ocean storm, crazy 60 ft monster waves, extreme severe weather, heavy wind, heavy rain, torrential downpour. Full time Vanlife living in the Arctic. Come along for my 3rd Month of cozy living full time in the van. This is a taste of everything the arctic can throw at you of crazy unrelenting van crushing weather, contrasting with the stark and amazing nature beauty of the island archipelagos of the arctic islands and fall coloured forests of taiga and tundra. Also cooking, adventuring, traveling, hiking, cooking and everything else you need to experience living in the van. This was filmed before my arctic winter tour that you have been seeing these past 6 months #vanlife #vanliving #hurricane #extremeweather
My van is a Fiat Ducato, FWD with Nokian Winter Tires. This is the same as a Ram Promaster in the USA and Canada but with a diesel engine and manual transmission.

Here is the full arctic winter tour season in one playlist • The 2024 Arctic Tour! ...
Surviving my 2nd Winter of Extreme Van Life, Blizzard, Snow Storm Camping & Freezing Cold which includes:
This is my complete second winter of Winter Van Life in extreme conditions in the North, living in a van during freezing temperatures. Starting in November I go through the whole winter season of snowy winter adventures from November to April, with snow storms, blizzards, extreme cold, extreme snowfall, slippery roads and some amazing winter beauty as well.
I also show you what I learn as I go from my second winter in the van.
About me: I am a Norwegian adventurer and wilderness explorer. My youtube channel focus on outdoor wilderness adventures and exploration, backpacking, hiking, canyoneering, skiing, climbing and mountaineering. Nights spent in a tent, alone or with friends. From the snow covered mountains and misty fjords of Norway and Scandinavia to the remote plateaus of Yellowstone and the debts of the red canyons of Utah to the summit of Mt Whitney and the heart of Sequoia Kings Canyon National Park. I love the Wilderness! Email is under "For business inquiries", for general questions please comment on a video, I try to answer everyone.

I enjoy Norwegian explorer videos more than anything else on UA-cam, I love the storms and drives all season's scenery very relaxing. Thank you.
I live in Arizona. My Grandma was born in Norway. I too love these videos. Much MUCH different than Arizona. Lol
Thank you so very much!!
Thank you!
I love this kind of weather! Summer is nice, however not very exciting & it gets so hot. In the fall & winter we never know what to expect & that's exciting.
So true!
I shouldn't have started the video yet in the middle of the day.. im pausing 10 minutes in to finish my wifes list of chores she prepared me. I'll finish the video in the evening ✌️
Awesome, thanks!
Facts 😆😉✌️
First 32 minutes. What an amazing scenery, and those rocks red-illuminated by the setting sun, so beautiful...
Thank you Regine!
Incredible footage! Your bravery and determination are admirable. Keep chasing your van life dreams!
Thank you! Will do!
That opening view is incredible. Perfect timing for a video jarl. I cant wait to finish it
Hope you enjoy it!
Whoa!!! Over 3 hours with my favorite UA-cam video maker Jarl?!? My day just got a little brighter 😊
Haha, Thanks and enjoy!
Even though it’s hot here I’m curling up on my sofa watching these crazy storms! Love it 😊
Awesome, Thank you!
Love the harsh storm on the Atlantic Cost Road. And then preparing food inside. What a cosy thing to do.
It was pretty amazing indeed!
Hermosa tormenta me encanta...gacias por tu labor de mostrarnos tus aventuras bendiciones
Thank you so much!
Thank you for the addition to my day. Gorgeous views!
Thanks for watching!
I wish really to visit Norway, i love your country ,thank you for this great video ❤
Thank you so much!
It is every time beautiful these video's
Thank you!
The first part of this video had some stunning road travel images and after you entered Sweden the fall colors began to really pop out. The village of Dikanes was nice to see. The iconic bridge on the Atlantic Coast Road is just beautiful, whoever designed it had a whimsical sense of composition, more like a car rendering. After the storms started it looked like you had a pretty sheltered area with the rock outcroppings in the bay. The ocean was definitely churning. At the end of the video the hurricane "storm pia" really showed the oceans fury. The jetties getting pounded also provided good shelter for the boats docked there. All in all a good overview of the transition from late summer into fall/winter. Thanks Jarl. 🍁🌬 🌊 🇸🇪 🇳🇴 👍
Thank you my friend!
Wow amazing footage breathtaking scenery just subbed
Thanks and welcome!
Summer was amazing! I really can't wait for winter action and scenery. Stay safe!
Thank you! You too!
Oh God it's beautiful, like a moving canvas, with the sea's salty air. So beautiful. Cindy 👋
Thanks so much 😊 Cindy!
What a peaceful place and video thank you again for it.
Thank you!
So soothing and relaxing. Thank You.
You're welcome 😊
Epic road trip! Epic storms! Epic seas!! Epic skies!! And yet the birds keep flying! Unbelievable. And so awe-inspiring.
Yes, those birds are awesome lol
Amazing again and again 😂😂
The Trek & Track both were a Treet.
Love and feel the feelings of hanging your legs down at top ridge. ❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Wow----stunning.Looking forward to Autumn/Winter vlogs this year.Thank You from Scottish Highlands
Enjoy!
Wow! What beautiful places you have been. The blizzards are scary 😨 Glad you have made it through.
I enjoy it very much, thanks for watching!
Such a stunningly beautiful country. Thanks for showing us what most tourists never get to see. It is amazing to see such unspoiled environment. I live in New Zealand which also has lots of beauty but nothing on this scale. Norway is spectacular indeed ❤❤
Thanks Dave, I agree, hope it can stay this way!
Aqui en Miami llueve a cantaros truena mucho,la casa se siente fria pero agradable,estoy cocinando sopa de vegetales y carne de rvaca...mientras tanto estoy bajo mi edredon mirando este video espectacular,gracias!!!
Awesome, sounds cozy!
Another great video with amazing visual and sound clarity. It’s nice to come home from work and be able to simply relax to the sound of rain and the roar of wind and monstrous waves. Rejuvenating. Glad I found this channel.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow !!! Hefty. This is life 💪👍
It is indeed!!
Love the scenery and the storm in the van. I'm living vicariously through you and your travels. Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much!
Greetings from Sierra Vista Arizona my potential Norwegian kinfolk! Our explorer pal knows EXACTLY where my Grandma was born! ❤️❤️🙏🙏 To you all!
Haha, I think I do
Hi joseph i loved how long your video was today and all those places you named... I just tried to say afew of those places im trying to learn norweigan im abit rusty lol (jeg heter louise) and it looks very pretty and scenic today in sweeden as for my important meal of the day it is tea lol i only drink coffee if im really tired aftee a bad night but here in the uk weve just had storm lillian quite high tides and stormy winds usually in a storm i go to the cliff with my half moon fishing tent and wach the boats on the mersey river me and the dog take a picnic and sit there for hours its lovely on a warm evening you just cant beat being outdoors loved your video im sure next weeks will be another great video btw that was some whale bone you found earlier xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Thank you so much Louise! If you turn un the captions you will se the names spelled out
Thank you i will check out the names il practace saying them 😁👍
It doesn't get better than this!
Parked with the sound and view of the ocean, along with the sound of the heavy rain on your camper 👍🏾
Wow, thank you!
@NorwegianXplorer keep up the great videos and stay safe!
You are covered as in winter. Yes, the storm brings in cold and wetness. Fearful sound of howling wind and a dechained ocean, the sea is often cruel. Enormous huge waves, what has become of the little boats ? Luckily you made a wonderful hiking, in sunny weather, with marvellous view points from the overhanging look-outs. A good exercise for the legs and the whole physical condition. Rain drops on the windows give an awesome picture. I wish I had your orange foot-slippers, warm and light, to warm my cold feet in winter.... This was a video full of life and movement... I enjoyed it ! Thanks Jarl for going out in the middle of the storm when rain is pouring into your face and wind is taking you out of balance...
Thank you!
love your videos, thank you for taking us with you in your travel, Norway is so beautiful. Tusen Takk Jarl.
Glad you like them! You are very welcome!
Hi Jarl, what a fantastic video. I watched it in chunks of 30 minutes for a few days to make it last longer! The storm footage is magnificent! I would give anything to stand out there and feel the wind and water in my face. I hope you know how much we appreciate your very hard work to make these look so professional and bring another world to us. Thank you, as always.❤
Glad you enjoyed it my friend!!
I adore these videos. I have them on in the background while I work and it helps keep me relaxed and stress free. Wonderful cinematography, thankyou for sharing 🙌❤️
Awesome, Thank you so much, that helps my channel a bunch!
Hi Jarl, its a great recap of the season. I like your videos. Take care of you.
Absolutely SPECTACULAR!! Amazing the hurricanes and storms that arise in Norway. The ocean at 3:26:30 looks like a white bubbling volcano surface!! I have never seen a sea storm like that so close to shore line. Amazing. I LOVED your GORGEOUS hike!! 🌳🌳🎋⛰⛰⛰🌄🌄🌄🏔🏔Absolutely beautiful. What a mountainous scene above with the water below and the gorgeous rock walks. I love the look out tower up there and the gondola going down. Loved the whole video and the delicious sandwiches and the "the most important meal of the day....coffee"!!! BLESSINGS
Thank you so much!
Nice. Ser denne i flere bolker 🙂👍
Skulle bare mangle😂
The immense power of the seas, as you've shown at the end of this video, is a reminder of how weak and fragile we are. Many sobering thoughts come with this.....
Thanks for watching!
It was a long one this time, but definitely worth it! In any case, next year we also want to do the hike to Romsdalen. And drive a lot of gravel roads. But not in high season, way too busy. You've been through so many storms! North Sea is wild. Fall is very beautiful in Norway & Sweden! I like the colours. Stay safe, greetings Marinka

Thank Marinka, yes the colours are wonderful, I would actually not recommend the hike to Rampestreken, it is boring and doesnt feel like nature, and the views are not close to anything you can see further north in Senja or the Lofoten area. I would only give it 2 out of 5 stars, the Segla mountain in Senja was the best hike this summer and a clear 5 out of 5
Thank you Jarl for your honesty. Very much appreciated. You know by now that we avoid busy places and nature staged by people. So without any hesitation we dare to say that we will avoid this place! We were also on the Stekenjokk plateau last June, when it was only 6 degrees and a harsh strong wind was blowing. Most campers drove on, but we enjoyed the view, had lunch and hiked through the snow. Unforgettable!

@@MarinkaKlaver Yes, Stekenjokk is quite a cool place, i love the wide open spaces!
I just discovered your channel and have been binge watching all your videos. Your videography and music are superb. The storms and winter mountain footages are hauntingly beautiful. You are living in nature’s best resort! Thank you for taking us along your journey.
Awesome, thank you!
Another 4 hours of spectacle and fun!! Thanks for another great video Jarl!
Glad you enjoyed it my friend!
Plethora of sights and sounds Jarl , your best video so far IMHO .
Thank you so much my friend!! Long one:-)
Just another amazing video.... 😮😮😮 I love the calmness, extraordinary scenery and the background music... whenever I am free I am glued to your videos.... man becoz u r living my dream life.... 😮😮😮 from 🇳🇵 🇳🇵 🇳🇵 🇳🇵
Thank you so much 😀
Hi felt like I was on vacation driving along with you tonight as I relax watching your beautiful video. Such majestic skies and mountains and the beach. I wish I could be there and look for sea shells. I'm looking forward to the storm.
Thank you Candy!
@@NorwegianXplorerYour van seems so cozy. The little colored lights and the rain puttering on the roof. Beautiful scenery on the hike.scarey steps..Life is good.
I am trying to make it as cozy as possible, i have added some more stuff for the upcoming winter as well
@NorwegianXplorer Those steep steps on that hike looked almost as bad as the Yosemite half dome hike. I wondered how people make it back. Is that what the gondola was for?
@@candylee4684 No I walked down, not anywhere near as bad as half dome, actually a pretty boring hike IMO.
The hike looked like tremendous fun! What a great view of the town below. That was a marathon watch party, enjoyed every minute. Can't wait to see your new videos of the upcoming adventure in the States! Enjoyed your disdain for the gondolas 😂
Thank you as always for taking us along! 🙏☕️💯🌞💧☁️💧☁️💧⚡️🥑☕️🌮🌮🌮🥪🍺👌
Glad you enjoyed it my friend, yes cant wait to go there now!
I'm #260 to "Like" Yikkess, an almost 4 hour video
11:00; to be continued.
I never tire of Lofoten footage.
Roads seem narrow compared to those here in U.S.A., however, I like that there is virtually NO litter on either side of the roads.
1 hour - to be continued tomorrow, 25 August 2024.
1927/26 Aug; I'm baaaack, finally!
Did you buy a new iPhone?
Being comfy/cozy in a van is a lot different from being comfy/cozy inside a tent during a fierce storm. Am enjoying some hot buttered Orville Redenbacher popcorn while watching this video. I've NOT ever seen you snacking on popcorn.
1:50:24; Thank you, Jarl, for capturing the increasing intensity of this storm.
2:23:50; Mother nature provided you with a nice day for your hike.
2:30:30; beautiful views, am wondering what the elevation is?
2:31:10; "That's all for this hike, hope you enjoyed it" I've been riveted to my computer monitor, never blinking.
2:32:07; I'm outta here for now, I'll watch the last of your video tomorrow.
27 August, I'm baaaack
Settled back & am snacking on Orville Redenbacker's hot buttered popcorn as I watch the rest of this video.
2:46.30; loved the "Today" vs "Tomorrow" comparison.
This video was entirely different from your other videos, thoroughly entertaining.
Warm Regards from far away Reno, Nevada, U.S.A.
Hey Bill, thank you, see you tomorrow:-)
I love your little lid you used, when cooking burgers. I too have a small lid for the same purpose. Thanks for the videos, they are magical.
Awesome, thank you so much!!
we watched as always enjoyed. it took some breaks lunch dinner chores. you covered lots of ground 🏞🏔 hope you are keeping up on yourself resting eating good 🙏💒 very nice music scenery great editing. stay safe out there. events are hourly now. maybe best head in good directions 🚐 we couldnt pronounce many places on the maps... 😂 so yes *THANK YOU* for the relaxing video 😁
i wish we could support your channel. im embarassed to tell our present situation.. honestly at age 10 i had more & was doing better.. really
Hey Joey, thanks for all the kind comments and watching the whole thing, that is really the best support I can get. I never expected anyone to give me that much time on a Saturday night, I wish all the best things for you my friend!!
Love watching these more than ever! 101 degrees index here in the Midwest. And we badly need rain! So ready for Fall!
Hey Bea, thank you, hope it cools down
Mesmerizing 😩😩😩👍👍👍👍 The videos you share are absolutely stunning👍👍 Be safe!!!!!
Thank you!
Good compilation of the video, I love the mountains and the sea, the viewpoint is just really beautiful! The walk there is quite adventurous!
3:48 hours wonderful nature!
I love the streets too🌞😇
Greetings from Thailand❤
Glad you enjoyed it
I have never seen the roaring waves like in this real life experience video outside of the Silver Screen (films). The last 15-20 minutes of this beautiful excursion is all well worth the wait. Oh my gosh, I loved the sounds of roaring waves and winds. The beauty of those waves were majestic. And you standing facing it from a hill was absolutely stunning.
I always wondered how the yacht owners who lives at the circle of oceans how they protect their parked marine vehicles and keep them safe from those verocious tall waves (timestamp 3:38 and on).
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Those stones or boulders must all weigh a ton or two.
This is so far my favorite from you. I mean LOL I love all of your works, but this made me stay awake to see to it that you're safe.
🙏❤️👍💯
Thanks for sharing your adventures and your delicious meal preps. Very interesting. ❤
Thank you sooo much for this very thoughtful comment, truly appreciate it!!

Thank you Simone!
I just subscribed. I really like the way you film and the places you go. Very cool. Hello from Chicago ! Thanks for showing us these epic Nordic places.
Awesome! Thank you!
A objective point of view your comment on the hike summit remember in your eyes ugliness is a god scen for those with mobility issues making a scenic point a pleasure for everyone to enjoy I wish I had your mobility mate I really wish I did. BONZA 🇦🇺🇳🇴😃🙏
Good point Phil, thanks for sharing your point of view on this.
What a nice hike in andalsnes, i did not know that when we were there, now i have to go back😅. Have a nice fall, and thank you for rge nice video
Thanks for watching!
love youre videos, i will watch all three hours with pleasure.
Awesome! Thank you!
@@NorwegianXplorer how does it feel to live in the coming wealthiest country on the planet.
We have our problems and I think we will get poorer as oil is replaced, We do not have anything else than oil really. No new tech or inventions coming from this country
@@NorwegianXplorer no, recently they discovered more oil and lithium like no other country has.
👏👏👏👏👏👏 superb my friend safe travels
Thank you so much Neil!
I'm in South Africa and I enjoy watching your videos. I notice how your land has so much water.. ❤❤❤ and beautiful. Keep up the good work!!!
Thank you so much!
Nice drive. I really like that fishing village. Listening to the seagulls squawk. Lots of nice coastal roads. Dramatic cloudy skies, mountain and sea landscapes. You have really hit the road over the past year!
Thanks Stan, yes I have been getting around!
So cozy you litterally poster in 9 pm for me and I watchwd it until the end then it is my bedtime
Good vibes
That is awesome, thank you so much for watching the whole thing, that is the best support I can get🙏
😀
No problem!
Very nice again, it is so relaxing to watch and sometimes i see places we have been and that enjoyable. like it that fall is knocking on the door, very curious what the fall and winter will bring. This week it will be hot again over here, done with it haha. Have a good one.
Glad you enjoyed it! It has been wet over here the past couple of weeks
@@NorwegianXplorer i saw it, last friday a front passed us with a lot of wind at the coast but gave norway en great brittain a lot of rain.
So much to take in, don't no where to start on comment? Really awesome!
Thank you my friend, it is a long one!
4 hours 😍😍😍😍
Haha, indeed!
great video..here at Burningman on my star link it rained hard very peaceful while watching this rain!! Just like last year
Are you happy with the starlink? How much power does it drain while using?
Best video ever! That hike was epic! You are either brave or crazy! That is the most unsafe trail I've ever seen! Did you take the gondola down.? Thank you immensely for this video and your van life. I very much like when you describe all the surroundings and the people. Like a tour
guide. Bravo!
Thank you so much, no I didnt take the gondola, I walked
Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸🇺🇸Nice camping van video.🌷🌷Stay safe👍🏽
Thanks for watching!
Merhaba norveçli kaşif dostum;bi'arkadaşıma demiştim bir kışı norveç,isveç,danimarka ve filandiya da geçirmeyi çok istiyorum...tabi bizde bi söz vardır onuda unutmadan, "ya kısmet"...yine güzel video idi,teşekkürler,selamlar...
Thank you!
Those mountains look kind of "forlorn." Probably due to clouds. 😁
They see a lot of ugly weather those mountains lol
That is one amazing hiking trail. Breathtaking views but I did get a little dizzy at times 😂 You go to great extremes when bringing us these incredible videos but please watch your step & stay safe. We truly appreciate your efforts . Blessings from Montana.✝️🇺🇸
Thank you so much! I will be in Montana very soon, hope the smoke clears a little
Such a relaxing Sunday afternoon, I loved thr entire video, amazing!😊
Thank you so much!
0 h 32 until 1 h 30. I must say Lofoten-Isles can be charming too, wenn all is gray. And I heard a new music of yours with a lot of darkness in it - and then came the bells, I love that. And say Lofoten is so green in summer... Beautiful scenery at your stop along the Atl.Road. Yes, howling wind and storm outside, it's nice listening to, when you are safe inside, enjoying warmth and cosyness... Videos with aromas should be invented, only with the good smells, as your bacon.... (to be followed, hahaha 😂☕🍰🍺)
Haha, yes, I imagine you can smell the bacon only by looking at it!
Yes, I do !! Herrlich !
Nice nice love your videos !!
Thank you so much 😀
Oh...those wraps look SO NICE! Seeing them made me hungry even though I had dinner not long ago!
Thank you so much!
I think this is the Longest vanliife video jarl!!.💪😃
Glad to hear that lol
It's interesting in someways the similarlies off terrain vast distances and and spartan populated areas a little bit like here in Northern Australia and Tasmania.
By the way G'day from Australia.
Bonza Video again. 🇦🇺😃🙏
Hey Phil, thanks for watching all the way from the other side of the world! Do you get winters in Tasmania with snow?
車体を叩く雨粒の音が心地の良いBGMですね😊
Glad yo enjoy it!
Nice video.Hello from Turkey..
Thank you my friend!
They should use your footage to demo high end displays! Wow!
Thank you so much🙏
Its Awesome
Thanks For Sharing
With Us Love Storms 🎉 Awesome Views⛰
Thanks for watching!
On dit que la Norvège est le pays le plus moderne au monde . Oui et le plus extraordinaire . La mer les route au front de mer les maisons rouges surtout, on sent le vrai foyer une ambiance paisible malgré le tomborinement de la pluie, le vent et le froid . Voilà la vie que j'aime . Vous êtes vraiment un cordon bleu . Votre cuisine pourtant simple mais savoureuse et vous ne lésiner pas . J'aime les personnes qui se nourrissent bien . J'aime le moment où vous préparez le café . Dehors un temps orageux et vous êtes à l'intérieur bien au chaud . On ne choisit pas son pays certes, mais j'aurais voulu naître en Norvège et vivre ces moments de rêve . Merci à vous de nous faire découvrir ces merveilles . 👍❤ Rachel .
Thank you so much Rachel!!
