@@_Azzychanhello 🤗 from Poland and my rural living channel 😊🐕
Ahh! So excited Cecilia!!
Hey, is there any way to get a signed copy? Since I've known the author for years, thought I'd ask LOL 😂
I love how often you say that you are grateful for something. In every video. And how often you say the word "gorgeous". You are gorgeous, Cecilia! Well done!
She's so wonderful, isn't she?
@@annavoytenko I agree so much with you. Cecilia is truly beautiful inside and out! 🦋
Correct! One reason I love her channel as Cecilia brings so much positivity. Her aura and how she deals with day to day life.
Greetings from Massachusetts, I am 77 years old and you have given me a great gift as I am unable to travel . . Your videos make my day ! Grim is a love . I love the cooking segments . am teary eyed at your announcement of your wonderful book ! Congratulations!! Preordering!!
✨️Cecilia's second book after her best-selling "Life on Svalbard", ❄️"Life with Grim" sure to be a major best seller ❤️
A children’s book with Grim! 🥰🙏🐾
Yes!!! Svalbard…through the eyes of Grim🐾❤️
@@jillianswaine4298 Oooh, I really like that idea❤️🙌🏼
Yes!!!🤍
A Grim boook! I am here for it. ❤❤❤
Your canine son Grim's adventures on boating trips, his footspa 😂 recipes, and his overflowing cuteness all deserve a book on its own ❤
Oh Cecilia, Congratulations!!! It has been a privilege to be invited into your life on Svalbard over the last several years😄❤️ You should consider (in the future) writing a fiction book. You are so creative, I know it would be great! Much love 🥰🇺🇸
I like the way you are living your life the way that you want. Not many people can do that in this world. Truly authentic!
I am totally OVER THE MOON!! That you have done this book! Cecilia you have introduced us all to your Beautiful Svalbard and you have made me LOVE IT! I grew up with snow in the Winter and always thought I hated it but you have changed my eyes and shown me the beauty in it. From the bottom of my heart THANK YOU!! I can not wait to get your GORGEOUS BOOK!
My friend just returned from a visit to your beautiful Svalbard. I made sure to inform her about your page, so she could watch to make sure she visited all the great places in the area. It was fun to see her FB photos of her trip, especially when I recognized where she was. I had messaged her to visit the Husky Cafe and her response said that is where she was posting her photos from!
You love reading books so it’s very appropriate that you write a book!
There is just SO much I love about your content... from the way you transitioned to life in your cabin with Christoffer and Grim, to the renovation and evolution of your home - to how you balance your life there with connecting to friends and your lovely family. ❤
Congratulations 🎊 and WELL DONE on completing your book on Svalbard - you are the PERFECT ambassador! I've seen a few other creators putting out content on Svalbard - but YOURS is markedly different and BETTER - because you keep things positive, and you have the mindset to work out problems and challenges intelligently and with great forethought. I also love how much you keep everything so organized and get things done to make your life run as smoothly as possible in your home. 😊
P.S. - Hope it doesn't sound silly, but I think you chose the perfect color for your beautiful nails to promote what I KNOW is going to be a fantastic book! The size of it alone tells me that you've put so much heart and work into it - and I can't wait to get a copy! It will be such a great conversation piece on my coffee table when I entertain friends and of course, I've already recommended your channel and videos! ❤😁👋⚘️
@@lesliec3612true 😁. Hello 👋 from Poland 🇵🇱 and my rural life channel 😊
Just pre ordered 2 of your books, one for us and one as a gift. Can't wait to read it, your photographs are stunning 🩵
Wow, thank you! 😍😊🙏🏻
Christopher is such a gentle giant. Lots of hugs and kisses to Grimm too. Love you guys from South Africa
It looks like you are on your way to becoming a UA-cam superstar, Cecilia!
First, an article about you in the New York Times.
And now you have published a BOOK!!!
I bet that you will be at 1 million subscribers very, very soon!
Thanks for letting us know about it. I will be placing an order with my local independent bookstore very soon! Cannot wait to read it!!!
Sending peace and blessings from Southern California.
Congratulations! Writing a book is a huge endeavor.
Congratulations on your book! My husband Adam and I both watch you and we will be pre- ordering your book as our Christmas gift to each other . We truly love the way you share Svalbard with all of us . 💜
My husband and I as well! That was a lovely idea! Hopefully the whole trilogy will be available by then! Life with Grim, and Life on a Sailboat with Grim!
Also, isn't she the best homemaker? I love her and a few Korean girls I've followed that have turned homemaking into the art it should be!
Congratulations!! 🎉❤😍 I’m sure the book is going to be as wonderful as your videos ❄️
Just preordered your book!! Watching your weekly videos has been a bright spot that was so needed in my life. My home country - U.S. - has been a hard place to live for a long time now, and seems will only be getting more difficult. I take great joy in knowing there are people like you in the world - you are so positive and genuine. And you share such beautiful images. You also share your culture. What a happy spot to visit each week - and now a book!!!
Congratulations on your new book Cecelia! I’m sure that you’ll open Svalbard to a whole new audience…. You are a gem in this crazy world & I’m grateful for you-- 😊
Congratulations on your book!! I never have posted a comment to you, but I want you to know that my husband and I have been watching your channel for over a year! We watch you, Christopher and Grimm at night to decompress from our very busy life here in the DC Metro area. Thank you for sharing your world with us.💕
One thing I love is learning about other cultures. Thank you for Sharing Cecilia. I will have to request your book for Christmas.
Yay!! You have opened up so much to me that I didn’t know existed. I’m so happy for you and wish you great success with your book!
Hi Cecilia, just bought the book. Now I have to wait till October 26th.😊❤. Anja from Germany
I love that you wrote a book so much. And the nails perfectly match the cover. Because of you Svalbard is on my travel bucket list.
I know, for me, your videos have brought me into a whole new world. Congratulations 🎊 on your book! I am looking forward to reading it!❤❤ Good to see you a Wednesday!!
I cannot wait to read your book! You have introduced me to a place that I never knew I needed to come experience...and some day I will!😊 Congratulations on the book! I am excited to read it!
Congrats Cecelia ! Well done and good luck with your book! 👌👍😊❤️ And please give Grimm a big hug from me 🐶❤❤❤
COngratulations!!! Who doesn't like a big fat book about Svalbard?!!! And who doesn't like a dream come true? So unique and beautiful and interesting we are all very happy that this happened. 🥰
I pre-ordered mine. How awesome! You are so inspiring. Keep up the hard work and loving your life!
We are here because of the wonderful person you are ❤.
Giving birth to a book is amazing.
We love you Christoff and Grim. We think if you as part of our family.
Thank you for sharing your hopes and dreams with us every week.❤
Ahh!! So exciting!!! 👏 👏 Congratulations Cecilia! It makes total sense that you would make a book and you are the perfect person to create one. Love it! 😊 🎉
🎉 Congratulations on your book Cecelia! 💖 How you managed to keep it a secret is amazing and I am going to pre-order it right now! I wrote a report on Svalbard when I was about 12 and always wanted to visit. (Note to self: do it now) but I'm 74 now with knee issues so I am thrilled to be able to see Svalbard through your eyes. Love and Light 🥰💗💫💞
Visited Svalbard quite some years ago, still mesmerized by it!
Congratulations on your first book, i have just pre-ordered 2 of them and can't to read and view all of the amazing pictures
Congratulations! I am sure is an amazing book, i can't wait to have it in autumn, the perfect season for reading about Svalbard. A place which a lot of us wish to visit, but for sure we will not be able for varied reasons. So you are our bridge to an amazing place on Earth! Much love to all of you!♥♥♥
This kind of nonsense will not sell in russia
@@letun100okay?
@@alison5009 what okay?
@letun100 Seriously? Don't speak for the whole country, please. You only know your own tastes. Don't bring this kinda nonsense to a place where people gather to enjoy themselves and life. There aren't many creators that genuinely give their audience such a happy and inspiring vibe.
@@sofiab3678 i said that kind of nonsense will not be in russia,it is very urgent☝i am relly glad this papper will not see anyone in my contry,becouse it is absolutely nonsense
That book will be a huge seller
Congratulations on your book! I remember when your video popped up on my FYP on TikTok about 2 years ago and I immediately subscribed on UA-cam because I was fascinated about your living on Svalbard. This was an area of the world that I knew nothing about, so thank you for this!
Congratulations! This book is going to be a permanent fixture on my coffee table!
🏆🙏🤗💖
