FACING MY FEARS.. THE LONGEST ROAD TUNNEL IN THE WORLD! (Van Life Norway)
This week Lou faces her ridiculous fear of tunnels, as we drive under the longest road tunnel in the world!! In fact we end up going on a bit of a Norwegian history tour of it's road system, with a fascinating hike across Vindhellavegan visiting a well kept ancient road!
Norway has some of the best hikes in the world, and although this one isn't as famous as perhaps Trolltunga or Pulpit rock, it's definitely interesting!
Join us as we road trip across Norway in this vlog where we are driving and seeing what we find along the way.
If you've ever wanted to know how easy it is to wild camp and find motorhome services in Norway then this video covers all of that!

Your cinematography and drone shots are absolutely amazing. But what really makes your videos so special is the two of you. You make me happy, you make me laugh, you make me feel as if I'm right there with you. You guys are just too cool ,keep doing what you're doing.
😀😀😀
Another great video
Agree! You both are so funny x love you guys!
I don't think non vloggers understand how much it disrupts your day having to plant the camera, walk away from it, walk past it, go back an pick it up, catch up to where you were and repeat and then to do that on a bloody steep hill. I'm far too lazy, but that's why your vlogs are so good. Well done Lou.
😀😀
Congrats Lou on making it through the tunnel!! That uphill hike looked a killer, my legs were aching just watching it 😮
Yes you've done it again! I'm sure the gorgeous landscape helps but this was really nicely produced. What I love about you two is that it feels like I could just be hanging with you two in the van while you talk. I like it as much as those narrations of other vloggers, as with you I feel like I'm really following you along, not just watching.
Anyway I totally felt that church comment lol. My girlfriend used to be an evangelical Christian and her whole family hates me for seducing her off the straight and narrow which is funny considering she put the moves on me, but alright. Considering my career is based on helping women stand on their own two feet after their religion (Islam, Christianity or Judaism, doesn't matter what flavor) told them they can only be a stay at home wife with no education or self-sufficiency they might be onto something, whoops!
Oh wow what a wonderful and amazing job you have 😀😀 I expect not at times but what a great thing to do being able to help so many
GO - Shasha, Girl!!! Thank you for your work! (myself, I am a longtime atheist)
I've just discovered your channel and have been binging for the last 2 weeks. I make myself stop after 6 episodes a night! anyhow, I totally sympathize with Lou when it comes to tunnels. i tend to hyperventilate! But I also sympathize with Emily and her snack cupboard.... you tend to get the shakes when it gets too low. Loving your banter and the fact that you are so down to earth. If you ever come to Northern Ontario, Canada you will always have a place to stay here on our farm. AJ and our Molly could run the fields!
The wood on the stave churches is actually bog wood almost petrified, some thousands of years old, the peat in Norway is black so the colour of the wood turns black over time it’s the hardest wood around, and was used in or way to build from circa 2000 + years ago. Norway looks incredible and you two are cracking me up as usual, 😂 Thank you so much for sharing your VanLife with us Old Owl 🦉 Alaya UK.
Actually, it is just pine wood with a high content of resin (the trees were partially debarked some years before being felled, allowing the wood to saturate with sap/resin). After building with this wood, they painted it with burnt wood tar over and over, thus building up a thick, protective layer of brown/black, hardened tar. The stave churches are still being maintained the same way, using wood tar made the same way as back then.
Why the chuch is black is because they maintaind it with tar. Over the years it became black, thats why.
Thanks for another great video you guys made this 70 year old woman living in maine feel like I was riding right with you and I love the tree that were on the house
Congratulations Lou driving through that tunnel, I could tell by the look on your face you didn't enjoy that. It must be the same look Emily has when she thinks she will run out of snacks. Looking forward to your next video. Take care of each other. 😁
Definitely is 😂
Well done with the tunnel! Just a couple of thoughts...
At least with distances being marked in kilometers, rather than miles, you get through it quicker!
Also (and I can say this now you've done it), after all those miles of the tension and fear building, was the bright light getting ever closer encouraging, or were you thinking "bollocks, this is it"? 😂
very good vid and very entertaining better than tell a vision..
Another great vlog Louise and Emily! I love how AJ is up front taking in the scenery too ☺️ Would you ever get one of those backpacks that you pop your cat in and take Summer out for the hikes?
Emily, I reckon you won that bet! 3 weeks of not filling the snack cupboard, I can barley go three days!!!
Louise, another great filming and editing video. Honestly, one of the best channels out there. Always look forward to your vlogs, just a genuine nice couple 💜
We sometimes think about the backpack for her and now she is getting more adventurous it could be something we try 😀😀
No way bet was to empty snack cupboard before buying.. a bet is a bet...
You reckon she won the eat your ass bet im sure she did too cheers
Norway 🇸🇯 is a really a very beautiful country with incredible landscapes
Sorry Louise, but Emily’s the winner. Shouldn’t you being paying her because she won the bet? Thanks for another great video.
I believe she should as well
As a swede, I have visited Norway on many occasions. Both in my job and in private. Both in summer and winter. I can´t stress enough how beautiful Norway really are and how bad many of its roads are 🤭
oy! our roads sucks cause you greedy swedes stole our straight ruler way back in 1800`s and we are too cheap to get a new one.
Hi , Emily you like facts . In more Catholic and maybe other Christian church’s they buried rich people . And yes they smelled after a time .
In the Netherlands you got the saying: Rijke stinkerd , rich stinker . Because only rich people we are buried in the church .
Maybe thatch why they used a lot of incense during the church mass . Thanks for all the fact’s.
And also thanks fore the nice views . Norway tourist agency good hire you fore showing how nice Norway is .
Thanks .👍👍👍
I like that saying 🙂
Ladies we just love watching the 2 of you and look forward to watching every week xx
I am going to send this to my brother who is a retired Electrical Engineer, who worked most of his working life on those tunnels.
Lucky your not in the uk it’s hotter than the sun it’s self right now! Sweating massive balls and it’s midnight!
Well done on overcoming your fear of tunnels! If you do it another few times, you probably won't even notice it any more. I felt a bit insecure using the Eurotunnel the first time, especially with the "in case of an emergency" announcements, but after 20 years of frequent use, I don't even think about being under the sea anymore😊The longest road tunnel I have driven through (many times) is the Gotthard Tunnel (10.5 miles).
Yikes - ~ 10 mile tunnel!
What could be done is to amuse travelers with different, changing lights!
Pay up Emily!!!! Cupboard wasn't empty......
Of Louise’s snacks 😂
Thank you, as always. Innuendos were thin on the ground today, until, that is, you said: "Pop, pop, pop, you can pop all over the place." It warmed the cockles of my German heart. Pop/Poppen is German for sh*g.
😂🙌
Your presentation information and wit is absolutely fantastic ‘ itchy boots is going around the would on a bike , how about a world tour you two and get the BBC to pay for you as you are very talented ❤️
Now that would be something 😆
It’s supposed to get to 40c here in London tomorrow I’m dreaded it!🙃🙃 I was Envious when you mentioned about the rain and it being cold over there! Thanks for another great vlog☺️ definitely given me inspiration when I eventually get out on the open road😁
Yeah we just seen that in the news, stay hydrated 🙌🙌
I know - I'm in MA. U.S.; oh well, it's Summer in New England, after all - supposed to get to ~ 97° farenheit - with humidity. So you're going to beat us by a few degrees - yikes! I hope it's cloudy for you!
While I hate the dead of Winter (cold, low light), I also do not like the heat of dead Summer! As I get older though, I'm savoring the visual beauty of Summer more than I've ever done....
Poor Lou you looked genuinely worried & well done for getting up that hill! Crazily steep. Keep ‘em coming ladies were loving them.
I could tell Louise you were not liking the tunnel by how wide you had your eyes open! Well done all of you. X
I protest! Not boring at all! I found this video absolutely fascinating. The tunnel, the church, the road/hike, the shopping, the tree house!! Plus your usual lovely patter. Thanks for taking me along. See you next time.
Completely agree. Their banter always makes me laugh 😂
And so interesting to see. Great editing and filming.
I’m sure that Em needs more snacks, she’s done well. And Lou can have some snacks too.
Aw thanks both of you 😀
Loving your videos..try the walnut bread..its delicious..as to the chocolate...all good..bonne appetit...as we say in France....you make us smile with how you enjoy yourselves....
Well done Lou , I get palpitations going through Dartford tunnel,
I find closing my eyes pretending I'am some were else helps , trouble is scares the hell out of my passenger ,
Absolute loving this camper vibe vlog trip 😍
Especially that tree house 😂
❤️❤️
🤣
😂 would scare the hell outta me as well
These two girls are such a cute couple
You girls just make my day! How I long to be on the road. One day....yup!
Thanks for the video. Love your videos. Best Wishes Neil 🏴
What was said when the tunnel was opened was that the wider areas with the blue light was to break the monotony. I think the fear was that people would fall asleep while driving through the tunnel. The road over the mountain, Aurlandsfjellet, takes about an hour more than going through the tunnel. It is one of those narrow switchback roads that we have some of here in Norway. I have driven it in a VW Polo. I would not like to drive it in a van.
Kiwi is a good choice for relatively inexpensive groceries. So is Rema 1000 and Coop Extra. Meny, Spar and Coop Obs are usually more expensive. Petrol stations are usually the most expensive choice
would highly recommend the chocolate, freia melkesjokolade. It is wrapped in yellow paper. And it's super healthy 😁
We have just come across you channel. We’re off to Norway next week. How long did you spend in Norway? You are a joy to watch. We will continue to watch your other vlogs. 💛
hello 😊just discovered your channel and just want to say thank you for the good vibes and the beautiful views and inspiration. Is a breath of fresh air seeing you both being just normal people enjoying your travels. Lost of love from Yorkshire ❤😊xx
Hi Girls, enjoying your videos, we’re due early 2024 for same trip in Scandiland.
What app do you use for camps, water and showers?
Actually what are your best apps for all your van travels?
It appears Louise capitulated on the snack cupboard replenishment BEFORE Emily went shopping and then objected afterward. Emily for the win. Pay up Louise.
🙌🙌🥳🥳
Nooooo Emily gets to keep the £10 😀nuts n bits don’t count 😄great travel video 😘🇦🇺Michelle
Another great video with fantastic scenery, you’re so making me and hubby want to visit Norway, never realised what a beautiful country it is! Well done Lou for making it through the tunnel, you could sure see how anxious you were to get through it! Shout out to Emily too, I think you’ve done really well with the snack cupboard and I think Lou should let you off with the tenner 😊 A shout out to AJ, I love seeing him standing there between you watching where you’re going… I hope the weather improves for you, carry on with the great videos 😊😊 xx
Aw thanks Pat
Absolutely marvelous, I hate to say it, but I think Emely has got a Tape worm, she eats that much and doesn't put any weight on. 🐛😂 Something doesn't add up. Love you both.
Next time you are in Norway you should drive through the Rennfast Tunnels😁 Length around 10km and 230m under the sea level😀
Gotta laugh , you stocked up on snacks because they would be too expensive in Norway . Sorry Emily you owe Louise a 10er. Must admit 3 weeks was great.
That was a cool tunnel, I'm not a fan of churches either - 1612 Pendle Hill, aye that's why. We're melting here. And yes Lou at least one double entendre is required. As to 5hose hills, blow that for a lark.
Hi Lou & Emily, hooe everything at home is OK as A2 have a really bad fire blazing because of tge heatwave. take care. Mindy
I’ve got Emily’s short legs and Lou’s speed - so I am fucked when it comes to hills. That road was amazing but I would need a couple of snack / coffee breaks to get up it 😂
WELL DONE LOU FOR DRIVING THE TUNNEL,& WELL DONE EMILY FOR LOVING SUPPORT & I ALSO WANT SAY CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU BOTH FOR ALWAYS PUTTING A J & SUMMERS WELL-BEING FIRST & FOREMOST,I HAVE TWO CATS,CALLED MISTER & MISSY ( BROTHER & SISTER ) THEY ARE MY PRIORITY 😘😘😘 STAY SAFE 👍
R
Thanks Wendy 😀
100% agreed Wendy, I love the priority you have for your ‘kids’, very good parents 🥰
Great fun as always Well done getting through the tunnel Lou. Loved the church and that pick n mix 😍 how did you contain yourself Emily ?
I have no idea 😆
get the tenner,buy a lock for the snack cupboard and film the rage,,,it would be good,,,lol
Fun fact and top tip LOL when you’re walking down steep hills like that don’t use the GoPro use the Drone Leave it hovering and tracking you down the hill and then you can fly back to you in spotlight mode without having to climb back up
Louise! No such word! Agreement is what you should be saying...... 🤓
Your cinematography and editing are superb yet again! Love your fun facts, very interesting. You actually take an interest and desire to learn about your environment unlike many other van-lifers. Xx💕🌈🌈👌🏼
Em, you definately owe Lou a tenner... perhaps pay it in chocolate... :-)
OMG that really is steep..... BUT..... does look so beautiful...
I thoroughly enjoy your videos.
I’m Norwegian, I’ve lived here all my life, but I’ve seen places I’ve never been to thanks to you two 😘 Haven’t seen your video about grocery prices yet, but I’m assuming they’re going to be high? 🥺 Prices in Norwegian stores are including tax, is it the same in the UK? A little tip, the chain stores like Kiwi, Rema etc have their own brands that are slightly less expensive.
Yeah same as the UK, first price stuff has been great prices 😀 also glad we could show you some new bits
At 20:00 did you say «you’re such a twat»?😅. The both of you are hilariously good YTers.
Welcome to Arendal in southern Norway next time
Good to see you both enjoy Norway 🙋
After all that Christian wood Emily seemed very keen to get back to Fanny.
Just a quick question, did you get fanny new or did you settle for a 2nd hand fanny. If so I hope she wasn’t thrashed b4.
Oh that tunnel ahhhhh, but saying that you been though the Euro tunnel alot how did you feel about that one both ? I remember when I was visiting family in UK we got stuck for 40 mins in Euro tunnel, now that was very hot and funny
I’m certain if you got trapped in the tunnel your snack cupboard would see you through
She definitely owes the ten bill. We all heard the bet. But I must say, I like her fun facts better, no offense.
Well you’re off my Christmas card list 😂
@@campervibe Darn, and I had a space all cleared out for it!
I reckon 3 weeks is enough for the snack bandit both put £10 in and treat yourselves to something 😉
I think Fanny your van would rather ride through the tunnel , and Emily keep your money in your pocket, you did good on your snack challenge.
breaking the rules for the snack cupboard...lol!
Smash! No snack cupboard is complete without it!
I really enjoy this , i dont like tunnels, yuk .
That road you hiked was so amazing, thank you for sharing.
An that church very cute.
Love your sense of humour
Wow! The look on Louise’s face through the tunnel was so panicked I felt for her 100%! I’m not even worried about tunnels but that one seemed daunting honestly. The church Emily reviewed was so cool!! The woodwork was so unique and beautiful! The hike was awesome and usually in vlogs it’s hard to capture the incline but you truly did - what fun! Your vlogs are just top of the line and your open with the viewers along the journey which makes us feel like friends who’ve yet to meet. I’ve noticed every time I watch now I feel like I want chocolate!!! Haha (no need to pay Lou, Emily, the crappy snacks don’t even count so you did a great job!
Yeah so true it can be very hard to capture it but it was super steep indeed 😀
In Israel ,your freedom of speech is restricted. My device has been compromised and my comments are being segregated/erased/edited.
love watching these,
I am a local from where you drove past in the beginning, and btv, if you ever drive that part again, and have more time, I would recomend the old roads, alot less tunells then.
and had to subscribe, you two are like characters from show, with so much personality, and I love it.
probably gonna binge the rest of your videos now xD
Aw thanks for the tip and welcome along 😀
Were are you girls from..you sound like girls from Kent
one thing one can say
after traveling in norway
lies in not high with his head,
the course (money under the pillow)
but you have seen something we do not travel in Norway
and it must then outweigh the cost to buy into norway ???
I would hate that tunnel too. Think Emily won the snack cupboard bet x
Looks fabulous. Absolutely love the opening clip with the rolling cloud. On the question of the tenner, I think no because it is holidays and on hols, you are allowed more treats!
I like the sound of your logic there
Another lovely, entertaining vlog with stunning scenery. It looks so dramatic and beautiful whether it's raining or shining. Love how AJ rests his head on the dashboard to get a good view too. 🐕 Any idea what breeds AJ is made up of? He is such a gentle quiet dog.
No not fully, he is a husky mix but not sure exactly what of
u girls know that its a escape door every kilometer that have stairs up to surface?:P thats on all the big tunnels in norway
I could smell the fear from here Louise but its another thing ticked off. What a find that hike was too, just stunning. Emily pay up! 😂
I’m not paying 😂😂
When you have harpin turns over and over again, dont press the engine and take the engine down to almost stopping. Go down one gear and hold the speed in the engine so the turbo
help you better.
When you drop down to almost stopping, the turbo doesn’t help you ahead.
This is not nagging, but a nice tip for you.
Like to see your voyage in Norway, good girls
Dag Einar
Emily should pay! She set the rules!! A deals a deal!! Maybe pay you in kind 😉
80% of budget is for Emily snacks.
"Don't think your ears can take it..?" Stop talking then... 😉😋😋 And it might be an idea to check to see if Em's seat is isofix compatible 😉
😂😂
Fun to see your videos from Norway!
I just started filming a huge project, I'm going to try to visit all of Norways 356 "kommuner"!
Have fun
Really interesting vlog! Loved the old church and that steep old road nearby was a really cool find. Not sure I would have made it up there, but glad you did. Amazing scenery, even when the weather isn't ideal. And the ongoing saga of the snack cupboard just cracks me up 😆. Well done, intrepid explorers, carry on! 👏
Great video - Emily, pay the money, then you won’t have to hear about it again! ;)
The tunnels ain't gonna fall down or collapse...
Ohhhh Emily, such a saucy rule breaker.....! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Glad you finally got your snacks, I reckon you won that bet. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I know right 😆
I think I would have gone over the top, fuck that tunnel malarkey
Great VT...again...don't pay £10 bet ....buy more snacks with it and do double or quits ! 😂
🥳🥳🥳
Wow I must have been about 6 days behind you because I went through that tunnel 2 days ago heading from Bergen to Trondheim (not in my van I hasten to add).Now heading back to the uk via the Gotenburg-Immingham ferry.
Awww thank for stopping at the church, I saw that and wanted to stop (but my journey meant I couldn't) somewhere to go back to 👍
That road looks awesome.
I do hope in your snack shopping you've bought yourself some Kvikk Lunsj (in a red, yellow and green packet)? You can thank me later 😉🤣
Enjoy the rest of Norway.
It was a great church as well so glad we could show you it 😀😀
Is that £2.7 or 2 point seven pence? Crazy expensive either way.
My Mrs is exactly the same Louise, she hates doing anything wrong and its a pain in the perverbial. I call her Dudley-Do-Right.....lol.
Loving your interaction with each other and Emily pretending she doesn't take things to heart.
Norway is incredible and I'd love to travel there.
😂😂 love that nickname
I say she keeps her money, basically, the cupboard was bare!
Another great one girls, love watching your videos, it was about time the snack cupboard was refilled.😜
Too right 😆😆
Norways tough in the summer… idk try this in the winter perhaps. At least the heat wave haven’t hit us yet
On the question of £10.00. How very dare you Louise. You are putting Emms life at risk making her eat dangerously old snacks. 3 weeks them snacks have been festering in the dark cupboard, I will be surprised if she makes it back to the UK alive. She deserves a new emergency stock up . Another gudun as always.
😆 exactly right
23:17 This is not a private garage..
The van in the picture has the local municipality coat of arms on it.
The services that you thought was someones private garage in Hemsedal was in fact public services provided by the municipality of Hemsedal to their tourist visitors. Those buildings are part of the administration of the water department. Cool to see you in my "back yard", you seem like a fun bunch, so I subscribed. Hope you get to experience Lofoten. Will you do North Cape? If you get the chance I recommend Ålesund, in my opinion the pretties town in Norway (although I have not been around Lofoten myself).
That’s really good to know thank you 😊
I love you vlogs, I have been binge watching them. Keep them coming, you are doing a great job. Great vibes.
Your blogs are the best. Great editing, filming and content. You two are so much fun.
I think Emily should be happy she has a great metabolism… all those treats would make me a real rolly polly.
Lou ..if u said.... I'm absolutely not putting any more diesel into van...irrespective of how low it gets.....till every last drop is gone.... then one day ...ur airlocked...stranded on side of road...and you end up carrying 25 ltr can of fuel 15 mile up mountain road.....does it not make more sense to fill when indicator is in the red???
Emily's snack cupboard indicator showed red....therefore needing restocking...
By that logic...think you may need to give Emily another tenner...😂🙈😂
I like it Tony 😂😂
