Eastern Finnmark is actually pretty nice in the summer and winter. You visited it on the worst time, when all the plants had died, but no snow to replace it. When we get -20 degrees, the water in the air freezes, so it looks like the trees have snow leafs on em. Its also pretty when everything is green in the summer, + you get to experience the midnight sun!
Amazing Norway, completely fascinates me whenever you go. If i have a chance i want to come back there again and again. Norwegians are so friendly too, that makes the Country more likeable. ❤️
Very nice video. I live in Stavanger in the south, and I'm traveling north as a tourist next week and found this video informative. If you ever visit Stavanger I can offer you my guest room and some home cooked meals.
Great shots of Norway! But it made me laugh when you were disappointed that there were "no Norwegians" on your trip... in very remote regions of Norway. This would be like a Norwegian making a travel video of the US, driving between between Tonopah and Rachel and saying "The US is really disappointing - no people and all desert" :)
Gorgeous scenery and an excellent video. I visited Tromsø some years ago before I had a driving licence, but now I have one you've inspired me to go back and rent a car and explore the rest of northern Norway.
Travel to Finnmark during the summer, much better climate. Yes, the prices are high, but also consider how far it has to be transported and the cost of such. And it is not a secret that Norway is expensive so if you can't afford it, go somewhere else!
I’m going to Norway next month. I know visiting the arctic isn’t everybody’s idea of a great holiday, but I’m very excited. Your video was very informative _and_ fun.
Congratulations Man! really i enjoyed to watch your video about your visit to Finnmark from Tromso! i was visit Norway places like Trondheim, Oppdal, Alesund etc it was incredible experience to me! i think will come back and to visit the north i would like to watch the midnight sun! blessings my friends
A lot of tourists, especially japanese for some reason, visit us here in northern Norway in the middle of winter to see the aurora borealis. So, if you've never seen the aurora, this is the most comfortable place to see it. At least in my biased opinion :) Liked your video.
I very much enjoyed your video. A few years ago I did a motorcycle trip along the route, then came down through Finland. Definitely a place I want to visit again someday. Thanks for sharing
You are amazing! I really like your way to entertain and your way of making videos! You seem sympathetic to me, keep up your good attitude and good luck fighting that cancer!
Ironic flying into Kirkenes, then driving 900km to Tromsø, then driving 900km back to Kirkenes, only to fly from there to Tromsø. In essence, you've covered that span at least 3 times.
Yeah..i dare not compare farmed Beef jerky to Artic Norwegian Reindeer. These reindeer roam wild most of the year and have tons of artic herbs, various berrys, plants, etc etc to feed on, which gives these reindeer a special upmarket , yummy taste. I have tried it done in sooo many different ways.. absolutely yummy! Lets not forget the culinarry talent as well of norwegian chefs ..there's no country on planet earth thats won Bocus D . O. As many times as norway, their chefs really know how to intelligently cook the various artic offerings in a plethora of different ways, try them .
I love the video. We are starting to get our tickets for our November trip to Iceland and several places in Norway including Tromso. Very informative video! Turns out prices for places to stay actually work out for our group of 5 since it's pretty much the same price as for one person. We split the cost and it works out to about $50/night. I found the way to buy the airline tickets so our trip (via Iceland stopping in Scotland, London, Copenhagan and France along with Norway) is about $500 round trip airfare. Going to post videos about it once I get back but would really like to know what camera you filmed with? Trying to do the whole trip on the cheap (so I can help others manage it) and would love to hear you are just using your phone or something LOL but the footage is fantastic! How did you do it?
Thanks - now it looks like it's just two of us. We will be there for only a day and a half...just planning out the details. We are interested in taking a whale watching tour on the "silent" schooner and hopefully a northern lights tour. My girlfriend and I will probably also want to find a place to go have dinner / drinks. We can't wait!!
Hab gerade deinen Kanal gefunden und diesen atemberaubenden Vlog über das gesehen, was ich wirklich liebe, Arctic Dann habe ich abonniert, für eine Sekunde dachte ich, Sie würden keine neuen Videos hochladen, dann habe ich Ihre neuen Videos gefunden und als ich sah, dass Sie mit Krebs kämpfen, brach mir das Herz, ich hoffe, es geht Ihnen gut genieße das Leben
You missed Finland =( You should visit us sometime. You could drive 1 340 km next to Russian border. Tease them a bit =D BUT if you come here, come in summer time. Its way colder here than in Norway. Our food is simpler than Norwegian, and you should taste Fazer chocolate if you come here. And one more pro tip: buy food from Lidl brand stores, they are global chain so prices are cheaper. And The Most Important Thing:; Rent a DIESEL car next time you visit scandinavia! Almost always same rent price than gas car, but diesel is cheaper.
Im Norwegian, with both Finnish and Swedish ancestors. Imagine being inbetween these types of discussions almost every other day. :) Gotta love it. We're brothers.. who constantly fights with eachother
A quick check on Google gave the following: Norway's coldest temp. ever is −51.4 °C (−60.5 °F) in Karasjok, while Finland's coldest temp. ever is −51.5 °C (−60.7 °F) (Kittilä, 28 January 1999). However, these don't give an accurate picture of the temperatures in the area; in general, the temperatures in Finland are way colder than in Norway.
I guess Finland is the colder place in general. Norway's climate is pretty mild due to the Mexico Gulf Stream which makes the Norwegian coast ice free in the winter. But in Norway you can't survive for long outdoors when the winter storms and blizzards comes. Norwegian arctic winter storms are killers. Strong wind on top of cold. It's cozy inside tho. You can just listen to the rage outdoors.
Yes, but they weren't as good as my next stop, Iceland. In my experience, the Northern Lights are always in the sky in Norway and Iceland, but the sky has to be clear enough and dark enough to see them.
Ah,so...we in northen Norway have had a visit by "Skrue Mcduck"? Yes it is expencive her, but dont forget..we have free scools and healthcare + many other things. We pay taxes with joy :-)
I depends on how you define "university". It looks like the Svalbard facility isn't one. Wikipedia: "Despite its name, it is not a university (a status that can only be conferred by the government under certain conditions to larger institutions), but a limited company involved in research and some university-level education."
Sorry, but the Institute in Svalbard is a part of the Arctic University of Norway. It is the same with the Institutes in Alta, Harstad and Narvik -Trond, former math and IT student.
There are two ways to look at the prizes in Norway. They are high for you maybe, but did you see any Norwegian sleeping out in the streets? Did they look as they couldn't afford to buy stuff? Did they look sick, or like they couldn't afford to buy warm clothes. Maybe you didn't meet any Norwegians because you made your little journey in the middle of the week. People usually work, and most people have jobs. Jobs are well paid, and they don't have to buy expensive private health-insurances because they have tax based medicare 4 All. They take care of each other. Also they care about all people living in Norway. = No tribalism. A nation of very intelligent people. Their "nationalism" is a healthy kind of nationalism as in; they really love the nature, the way they can express their love to it, and they also love each other knowing that by not letting inequality creating too big fractions in society ( or do you say communities) they are stronger as a nation too. They know they are the best nation in the world to live in, so they don't have to, as loudly as possible brag it -to convince themselves they are. Like Americans do. So, it was sad you hadn't more time to spend so you could connect with people.
Great video! What gear did you use? Camera/lense/stabilizer/tripod etc. Did you add post editing stabilization? Im also seeing a bit of HDRish looks and glows around subjects that are interesting.
Your pronunciation is way off, but great video! Really enjoyed my time in northern Norway, the scenery beats the west coast (Bergen) where I lived in my opinion.
Contrary to popular belief, Europeans (not him) friom a few earlier centuries never liked to live in frigid places all year long, and years in the northern reaches of the geographical Inuit areas of their countries where it's forever frigid and icy almost all the time. Only Eskimos / Inuits liked such places of those three countries and Imperial Russia all year long and all around the north pole actually from just north of the Arctic Circle. . During the time of Peter the Great, North Sweden and North Norway and North Finland exported or deported all their Inuit Eskimo populations living there 300 years ago or so, living around the Arctic Circle to Imperial Russia and north Russia and Siberian Russia, in exchange for money paid to Imperial Russia. This was how Sweden the other two countries got rid of their Inuit populations and Eskimo populations about 300 years ago, in exchange for money. They were exported to Imperial Russia in exchange for money. The Eskimos were replaced by whites with a Nomadic lifestyle in North sweden and Norway and North Finland in places closer to the North Pole. I forgot the name of that ethnic group, like Sami white Inuits or white Eskimos, which had a similar lifestyle to Inuits. Like Inuits, the Sami white tribes likes fish and reindeer meat. All Inuits / Eskimos of North Sweden and North Finland and north Norway were deported to Imperial Russia in exchange for money paid to Imperial Russia about 300 years ago.
- cant afford it, can't afford it, definitely can't afford that, definitely can't afford this, that and the other thing - never meet any Norwegians, well thats because you definitely can't afford it - I Guess.
The positive energy of this man comes through the screen. Great video. Thank you!

“Travel is always a trade off. There’s always too many things to do and not enough time.”
From the bottom of my heart 😂
I'm headed to Norway in two weeks... I think you made me completely rethink my itinerary. I want to stay in the north!!! Thank you SO much!!!!
Great work of innate art, immanent craft and intellectual talent applied across vivid voice, vivify imagery and verdant scenery.

He did see some houses and boats along the way. You don't see too many of them in the desert. :-)
Thank you for beautiful pictures and your honesty.
I enjoyed this show. Very nice job on both the hosting and the production.

Hi David, do you think spend 6 days in tromp so is enough to visit and do some activities in November?

What did you get tired of first. McDonalds, fjords or waterfalls?
I will never tire of McDonalds.
Your life is an inspiration.

Always a problem. 🤦

Kanakarhu first off, Norway is more north . Norway's coldest temp ever recorded is -64 degrees Celsius, while in Finland it is -48 degrees Celsius lol
they are around the same latitude, and finland is further away from the coast (gulf stream) so therefore finland is colder.
Im Norwegian, with both Finnish and Swedish ancestors. Imagine being inbetween these types of discussions almost every other day. :) Gotta love it. We're brothers.. who constantly fights with eachother

Yes, but they weren't as good as my next stop, Iceland. In my experience, the Northern Lights are always in the sky in Norway and Iceland, but the sky has to be clear enough and dark enough to see them.

Not really. The weahter is very unstable then. I would recommend December/January and Februray.
Great and informative video, but the university in Tromso (19:53 in video) is not the northernmost. The one in Longyearbyen/Svalbard is.
I depends on how you define "university". It looks like the Svalbard facility isn't one.

When are you coming here at this part of the world?
Any plans for 4K Videos in the future? I just became a subscriber. Great channel.
Not in the foreseeable future. I don't even have a means to view 4K, let alone a camera that can do it.
Omg, did you eat this entire time? I’m sure the food must be super expensive
About twice the Walmart price, but you suck up and pay it.
Why you did not go lanabukt ?
What is there?
Bad Dalai Lama very nice place
I had some of your dried meat, it made me want to walk across a suspension bridge.
+Larned Justin Reindeer meat is what makes Santa fly!

Lol the weather guy on the radio in the north sounds absolutely suicidal.
it's maybe beautiful to see for a few days, but I could not live there :)
alessio franco if you had been born there, you know no different.
pretty cool
You dont pay for the road to the Nordkapp. And from the point you are standing it's only a 2 hour drive to the nordkapp.. worth a visit..
The community in northern Norway is insanely quiet AKA boring but in southern Norway not so quiet
Nickolay We i think the quietness of northern norway is lovely! your country is beautiful
Your pronunciation is way off, but great video! Really enjoyed my time in northern Norway, the scenery beats the west coast (Bergen) where I lived in my opinion.
