    While people often think of winter when they think of the North, nothing is more beatiful than Nordic summer. It's bright, warm and brief. The seasons here are a great allegory to life, and how a month or two of beatiful summer makes up for the cold and darkness of life.

    @3:12 well kaldheim could be translated as the cold world as the vanheimr is translated as the world of Vanir. Heimili would be translated as home or "að fara heim" is going home however that form of heim is never used as home in compound words. I suspect they copied the marvel version of the nordic worlds and dropped the r that's always at the end of names of worlds ending in heimr (vanaheimr, múspelsheimr, niflheimr)
