I seriously want the youtube algorithm to bless this video
Aww, thank you! Fingers crossed, haha!
11:40 10 in the evening...wow still so light outside.
And it got even brighter further north😊
Hey guys, Larry and Karin Moore watching from Indianapolis, Indiana USA. We have been throughly enjoying your channel. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures with us. We are planning to start van camping in 2 years when I retire. But for now, we’re living vicariously through you. Some of the absolute best content on UA-cam. So please keep ‘em coming! 😊
Hey! Really pleased to here that, thanks for the kind words. Good luck on your upcoming retirement! Hope you'll enjoy it :)
Love the sound of An old Diesel
your dog's eyes match the color of the van ... so sweet! thanks for sharing the video!
Never thought of that before! It sure does, thanks for watching :)
this channel is soooo underrated damnn these visuals. never seen ones like those
Thank you so much Lise🥹👏🏼
Thank you, that's it :)
Haha, I appreciate it!😄😄
Did you see the best part at the end of the video?🙋🏼♂️
Where I served you ice?😏❄️
Haha, well not exactly 😄
Oh my goodness. How beauty!!! 🥰
Thanks for sharing.
Ha det 😁😘
Cheers Christian! See you, ha det!😄
I don’t know how you don’t have at least 500k subscribers right now. Incredible content. Keep up the great work and they will come
Wow, thanks for the kind words James! I’m honored. Good things take time I guess, let’s see what the future brings.
@@SimonBraeck thank you, my friend
Wonderful place on earth, wonderful VW, wonderful Husky, wonderful and stunning pics of the beautiful nature, landscape, houses etc. 👍👏🏼💞. I love all of it, best regards from Germany, Robin 👋🏼 😉
Thank you so much Robin :)
Norway dept. Of tourism should be sponsoring you.
Enthralling movies. Thanks.👍
Simply wow !
Thank you😄
Don’t stop ;) nice and relaxing videos to watch ;)
I'll keep doing my best, thank you :)
Hello from England! 👋 Absolutely love your videos and getting lost in the beauty of Norway. Hope to make it to Norway one day in our old 1989 Volkswagen LT!
Your cinematic skills are amazing! Can't wait to see more adventures in Chuck Norris!
Beautiful
Thank you :)
Quality Content with Stunning footages 😍
❤️ from India
Hej jestem z Polski pozdrawiam...👍🇵🇱 Jesteście wspaniali...😀
New to this channel unbelievable scenery great content I'm also a big fan t25s. 👍👍
Thank you! Great vans :D
It is hard to understand that you have "only" 26 K subscribers... always very nice videos. Hope to see you one day near us in the North of Finland.
Thanks! Let's see what happens in the future, I think I got into this game a bit late. We might move to the north in a year or two, it will be easier to explore that area in the future😊
@@SimonBraeck "late" is for people with watches... ;-) but the North will not go anywhere soon.
Beautiful place, thanks for sharing very nice video 👌👌👌
My pleasure, thanks for watching😊
As always, a great video..👍👍
Thank you😊
Your videos make me want to steal my dad's T4 Westfalia and hit the road! Filming is spot on, audio levels are SO pleasing; music and voice at the same levels. Husky + sheep made me think of one a friend used to take for walks. It broke it's chain and came home with a deer, proud as can be... Diesel heater must be a life saver on trips like this, not only for heat, but being able to dry out hiking gear etc. Already waiting for the next part!
Sounds like a cunning plan😂 Thank you, I appreciate that the work I put down while editing is noticed. Those huskies have a strong hunting instinct and of course the owners are responsible if anything happens, I've had my fair share of minor mistakes on this topic already... You're right, the heater is a game changer. Should be the first thing we installed honestly!
Wow! another spectacular video. Very nice effect at about 14:10! The whole video is excellent.
Thanks! It's fun to experiment with a few effects when the music is matching 😊
Can’t get enough of this content! 😍 you guys make me wanna buy a T3 myself and visit your beautiful country! Only been there during the winter! greetings from a neighbour 🇸🇪
Thanks Oscar😊😊 It can be recommended as long as you find a T3 in good shape (and if you can deal with small problems along the way)😅
Alltid lika bra!! 👌👌👌
Takk Johan🙏🏼
Great to see you back amidst the spectacular Norwegian countryside. That was a delightful way to finish off our Sunday evening viewing. Looking forward to more!
Thank you, such a nice comment😊
Enjoyed your video again, what a beautiful country. Already looking forward to the next video. Greetings Jan from the Netherlands.
Thank you, I really appreciate it😊

Thank you☺️☺️
Great video thanks.
Cheers😊😊
Absolutely beatiful. Thank you guys for bringing them up.
Sure thing, my pleasure!

Thank you! We really are, love this scenery🤩
really good video ✌ thank you guys ❤
Thank you very much😊
Absolutely beautiful 😁
Thanks Joe!
The nigardsbreen has been decreased a lot the last few years...warmer summers in Norway. I'v seen it 25 years ago & when we returned 2 years ago a lot was gone.
Yeah, seems like it keeps retracting each year unfortunately...
Yes, life was better with glaciers covering half the hemisphere, when all life almost go extinct.
Hej from a Swede 🇸🇪 in California! Such amazing scenery! Can’t wait for this pandemic to ease up so I can visit beautiful Norge! My girlfriend’s family is from Senja.
Hej hej! Thanks for watching, it sounds like you'll be in for a treat. Senja is a must do if you haven't seen it already, it's actually referred to as the "adventure island" in Norway 😊
Finally! A place I have visited before! It is a beautiful glacier!
Nice! Sure is pretty up there!
Your footage is amazing, really pleased to see truck Norris back on the road 🤩
We are super happy to have him back in good shape, thanks!😊
Awesome guy's breath taking scenes 👌🏻
Thanks, incredible area!😊
As always, very inspiring content!
Thanks!!😊🙏🏼
So glad ya'll are back!
Thank you, it feels great😊
Amazing views! Thanks for filming!
My pleasure, thanks!
Stunning images as always Simon! Love watching your stuff. Much love from Germany.
Thanks Jonas! I appreciate it😊😊
That was spectacular Simon! It is great to see you both again and your beautiful dog 🙂
Thank you! We love to be back on the road, and Zulu might love it even more😄
Another brilliant video such stunning scenery can’t wait for the next episode
Thanks Martin!
Thank you soooo much for sharing your country with us ❤️ Your videos are amazing and so well done!! It has become a Sunday morning tradition to enjoy your videos while eating breakfast😊 Love you guys from sunny Florida 🤙🏼
Very beautiful country, glad to see all your hard work on Norris is paying off!!!
Thanks Jordan, it feels rewarding when we get to see places like these :)
Spectacular scenery...love the view of the fjord! Glad you're rolling, again, and thank you for sharing!
Thank you! It feels good to have Norris back on the roads again.
Brilliant videography. Thank you!
My pleasure, thanks for watching :)
This is such a lovely video Simon. Norway looks like such a magical place to explore in a van.
It sure is, come see for yourself😊👏🏼
Thank you for sharing the stunning scenery.
Best wishes and safe travels.
My pleasure! Thank you😊
Another spectacular cinematic video. Can’t wait to visit this beautiful country. My heritage. These video make it hard to plan out a visit because everywhere is so beautiful Can’t wait for next video.
Thanks Eric! Indeed, it's the same process we do each time we wanna spend a few weeks on the road. It's a nice dilemma to have though and I can't seem to run out of nice places to visit anytime soon
Absolutely stunning views once again, I’m going to have to start planning a visit to Norway.
You should, I highly recommend it! (though I'm biased, haha!)😊
Was that Austdalsbreen glacier which was still covered with snow and ice?
Yep
We were there a year ago, mid August and we were second party able to reach the glacier by motorboat. We planned to kayak as well but the day before the group did not make it due to the ice. Even with the motorboat we needed to crush our way through the ice. It was one of the most amazing trip I made. So beautiful.
btw, love the videos!
Thanks Marcel! I guess we were quite optimistic to go there that early, haha
Wow what a fantastic vlog. Stunning places thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching :)
Stunning views. Been there with my RV and motorbike!
Thank you! A really nice area indeed, must be great with a mc
Grass top roofs, I think I saw this somewhere before! Very nice adventure again! Loved the glaciers the most! How cold is it near the glaciers? The camp site with that view is amazing!
It's a classical feature of these old houses in most of Norway, really charming! It's cold enough to wear a wool hat and a down jacket, at least in mid June.
Fantastico 🤠🇫🇮👍
Thanks!☺️👍🏼
Benny the Gipsy!
Takk! Den gipsen dro godt opp bakkene med Byrkjelo der, skjønner at vi må tune litt mer på dieseldroget vårt😄
So nice...dream country
Indeed, pretty dreamy place to drive around in🙂
franchement vous étes fore bravo
Thanks for sharing! Hope we can go there soon 😉😎 Greetings AnCo-Adventures
My pleasure! Thanks for watching😊
Very nice video again Simon and Benedikte.Thanks. I was pleasantly surprised to see you driving into the same campsite as we've been a week ago during our road trip with our rental campervan T6.1 from Roadsurfer. When we where there the camping was full, while it appears you were there alone. Did you jump into the lake?
Thank you😊 It was pretty empty as the weather was a bit dodgy and still a bit early for most travelers (this was filmed mid June). We didn't this time, but we have been there several times before and know the refreshing feeling!
Hello from Morocco🙂
Hello👋🏼
Beautiful as always.. Simon and Binedict if possible please try and mentioned the Names of places you visit with approximately distance from the main City..! Sorry for asking too much of a information..!👍
Thanks! I am working on an even better way of showing the places we visit, stay tuned for it😊
This is the first Time I watch your channel. Thanks you for sharing, this is epic episode, we like your T3 with the blue colour, I was just wondering about your drone video, did you use a app to know where the " No flight " zones are? but you guys did an amazing job filming and editing !!
Thank you! I use the functions via the DJI app and also some local Norwegian apps to check if the area is a no-drone zone etc. :)
@@SimonBraeck will you tell me witch app this local Norwegian app is, because I hope to go to Norwegian next month, and to explore some of your stunning flights as well
@@rojoontour Ninox Drone is the app called :) Happy responsible flying :)
@@SimonBraeck thanks
Hey! Where is this place? 14:00? Great vid btw!
Hey Anton! Check you instagram dm😊
@@SimonBraeck Could you write here too?
WOW Anton is here!!
Здоровеньки були, Антон. Rakssetra это. У чела фишка истерически не выдавать известные места :)
Не думал тебя здесь увидеть!
Just amazing video. By the where is the glacier in the first minute?! What is called !
Really enjoyed that episode, great videography and editing too. What was the syphon technique you used to fill your water tank? Also would you be able to show a map with the rough location of the places you visit, for me in the UK it would be nice to see what area of Norway you are exploring. Cheers B&Y
Thanks Ben! Just an easy way to fill the water tank using a portable can and a hose when carrying water from a river etc. We showed it in one of the first videos last year, but got so many comments on how I hyped that ancient technique that I skipped it this time😂 Working on an even beyter way to present the itinerary, stay tuned👏🏼
Damn that's pretty! I got to get there in the summer! I drove from Bergen to Oslo in winter. How come you didn't come to Queensland to study photography like all my Norwegian friends? :-)
Thanks Michael! I guess I was busy freezing my butt off in North Dakota for my education😄 I never studied photography though!
@@SimonBraeck haha you should have come to sunny Queensland in Australia. We had a great little community of Norwegians there. Guess they came for the sun and surf. The cheap booze was a bonus :-) Seriously epic shots in this video man. Happy T3-ing!
I love your videos and your couples dynamics. Really great footage, editing and always an interesting story! Is there any chance you guys do some kind of live streams where we could connect to you and ask millions of stupid questions?
Thanks Tim! I appreciate the kind words. We might do a live stream one day, sounds like fun even though it might be really scary too, haha. I will announce it in due time if we decide to do it😊
@@SimonBraeck would be really awesome! Your videos got me so hyped up for my upcoming 3-week-trip through norway by camper with my dad. :D
From Germany up to Senja then back down through your amazing country! Thank you so much for your content!
Nice! That sounds like so much fun. When are you coming here?☺️
@@SimonBraeck Yeah, it's gonna be great! We're coming in August. :)
hello simon, what a wonderful video! you are brutal! In the next few weeks I am going with my family in a caravan to visit Norway, I would love to know which route you followed in this video! hugs from Spain
Hi! Thanks😊 That would be too long to share in a single comment, I'm working on a more extensive description of our journeys through Norway. This video though is mostly on the western part of the country :)
God Tur
Takk John😊
Love your videos. What time of year was this? Where was it? What time of year would you recommend for a visit. We were hoping to visit this year but will wait until next year now. We have visited family several times in the beautiful Lillesand area but now want to explore up to the Arctic circle and re trace some of my late fathers steps. We plan 3 weeks. A lot of driving from the UK now the Harwich to Esjberg ferry has stopped. Was that Pulpit Rock at the beginning of your footage? Is it easy to wild camp? Sorry so many questions :)
Thanks! This was shot late June. Weather is often best mid July to mid August, but keep in mind that there is a holiday rush during July so the roads and accommodations can be busy. We are not close to Pulpit Rock in this video, just a wild camp we found along the way to the glacier areas.
👍👍👍
😊👋🏼
Kjempefin video. Hvilken isbre var det dere besøkte? Den som dere kjørte båt til.
Mvh
Geir
Takk Geir! Sender det til deg på instagram
What's the name of the glacier please? We are going ti visita Norway and we would likes to go to this wonderful Place!
Hi, I know it's a silly question, but could you tell me where did you buy the plates from 7:27 and what are they made of :D?
Hi! Not at all, they are from a Norwegian company called Eagle Products and these are made from wood :)
@@SimonBraeck thank you 🌸
What glacier is this ? Is it Briksdalbreen ? Thank you
Why does it happen? 2:20
Hey wie are in norway too, what Glacier or what Spot ist ist?

03:15. Eating iice from glacier is like drinkimg water from million of years ago including old viruses and bacteria !!
