- Join us for a jam packed winter week in Norrland. We have a lot of fun skiing and riding snowmobiles but of course there was some work to be done amongst the fun. We also chopped logs and had to clear our driveway of snow. We hope you enjoy this insight into a week in Northern Sweden.
Lots of love
Naomi and Jack

What's up everyone, we are Naomi and Jack 👋
We are a young married couple who are all about personal growth.
In summer 2020, amidst a global pandemic, we uprooted our lives in Central London and decided to move to Northern Sweden.
We were fed up of living on top of millions of other people in London, living out of one room in a flat shared with Naomi's parents, all whilst studying, working, creating TH-cam content and launching our business.
So we bought a car, packed it full of our belongings, and drove nearly 3000km to Sweden with no idea where we were going to live.
This year we are taking time out of studying Medicine and Law to pursue our business, BEAUTYNOIR, the Afro-Caribbean hair and beauty directory helping women to book beauty better.
So join us as we share and document our journey through film.
We are so pleased to share our journey with you and hope to build a community of people who can support one another and grow together.
Lots of love
Naomi and Jack

Jack you are one in a million. Smart Strong and hardworking. You are really very resourceful and innovative. Naomi really appreciate you. You both work together so well. You are a TEAM to be followed. Thank you
I loved this video. It shows your world in Sweden expanding. Showing your friends and the small village where you purchased your "date night" pizza was great. I cannot ever imagine you guys going back to the U.K. Your lives are here. This place is the world has been waiting for you. Keep the videos coming.
As somebody that comes from Norway and has spent 8 years in the UK. People who have only ever lived in a flat in a big city. They know where the good cafes are, they know where to get their takeaway, and they know about expensive, desirable brand names and their office jobs. But there is precious little in the way of real-life practical skills. Or even real values. Its really cool to see how well you guys are doing in this environment.
What are those real values? People outside cities are more racist on average than people in cities, is that real values?
@@grymkaft
Real value... Like having been out in the snow, gone for a walk in the forest, mountain, mini adventures.
When I talk about these things to Brits, all they think they can achieve by walking a 3 hour trip into the snow is to get cold, hungry, wet, tired. They dont see the value in having done a thing. And then to come home after having done a thing.
Doesnt matter how big or how adventurous. The daily stuff. Maintenance, clearing snow, building a thing, taking care of stuff. Real values.
@@captain_context9991 I think you've misunderstood the meaning of the world values.
@@grymkaft Well..... what is your problem? Do you alway zoom around flashing your racist card even when there are nothing in that direction? You only seems to have nothing else to offer than being a simple trouble maker. Get yourself a life and stop bugging people for nothing.....
And .... yeah.... people in cities seems to live in their own bubble and are often helpless in practical matters......
@@grymkaft
What do you value. Gender identity and wokeness?
Thanks for another great episode. You are an inspiration for us🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🌲🌲🌲
I've never witnessed someone work so efficiently. Great work!! Good times! Making memories. :)
Think of the axe as a pendulum. It get its force by the swing, holding the handle close to the head hinders the pendulum and stop the force that split the wood. Both hands at the end of the ax makes all the difference. Try again, bend your knees and follow the swing girl! :) You guys have an appetite for life, i love that you go for it, try it and feel from it. What ever the feeling is, it is living life.
Yes, the power should come from the hand in the back and the hand in front is just for steering. When I was told this it became way easier.
Naomi and Jack you guys are such hardworking guys and so smart I love to see you guys with so much love for each other God bless you both.
Thanks guys for showing us Lapland. It was around 50 years ago I saw a show on Lapland people and they showed all nomadic reindeer herders, I assumed that was all that was there. Never had a need to research further and have maintained that concept all these years. Sorry to every Laplander, you have quite a beautiful part of the world .
I love the cosy scene of watching Christmas movies, knitting with a cat in a warm living room. It looks so lovely 😁
-10 to -15 degree C doesn't feel very cold as the air get very dry. Not compared +-0 degrees and high humidity and especially not if it's a little windy. You tend to freeze a lot more in the south of Sweden along the coast line, than inland in the north, only because of the wind and high humidity. But, when the temps drop down to -20 or colder, it's important to check bare skin on each other and look for white spots when you spend time outside. Freeze burns are easy to get on your nose, ears and cheeks, because first you go numb and you don't feel the burn until it's too late. Be aware and careful, it shouldn't be a problem.
Yes, and please no moisturiser cream and your face in such cold. Like typical daily cream with a lot of water content.
It can makes it much worse.
There are special more oily creams for this season. I don't know brands in sweden but sometimes in Poland these are simply called winter face cream.
@@krewetkaaaa We just use regular face cream. It's not a problem. We don't have specific winter creams that I know of
@@AmandaPandah wow, interesting:) I was always taught that in lower temperatures like -10c and below you should not put typical light cream on your face before leaving the house.
I mean it is not a problem if you put it on your face in the morning and leave the house few hours later :)
I mean the case when you want to protect the face in the winter, when skiing, long walking outside etc
From what I found in English it is called "cold cream" sometimes :)
@@krewetkaaaa I mean the skin gets dry in winter but thats about it. The only thing I do different in the winter is dry my hair properly before I go outside so it doesn't freeze and break off. But ive not heard of winter face creams. I'm more concerned about losing my toes from the cold :P
@@krewetkaaaa
We have learned that in extreeme cold we use Nivea Cream in the tin that is much more fatty than skinlotions, but it has to be applied several hours before you go out in the extreme temperatur belove
-20° Celsius the days belove -30 or in some rare days when it's -40° or below and the air really sucks the moisture out of the skin, there are just a few places were they get the coldest temperature while further south it's not that kind of winters, closer to the coasts it's a higher humidity in the air even on winters while inland the air is much drier, two things were it possible to see the difference is people with heavy astma can feel some relief in the drier inland air, while the drier inland air creates way more electrostatic loads in everything a problem thats are not especially noticeable in more humid air because the overload of electrones have so much easier to get released in the humidity, but back to the cold it's very good to moisturice the skin regulary otherwise it becomes a streetchy screetchy skin in the real cold.
What a beautiful place you have there! A warm and cozy home and a landscape that is gorgeous whether it is green or snowy. Your kitty sure looked cozy too.
Such a feeling of happiness and calm watching this 😍
The Nordic Countries are the best. So Peaceful. Reminds me of time in Denmark.
All the Best Guys. :-))
Thank you. You did what I suggested and this is what northern Sweden life is about. Being 100% into the season's and what the seasons bring. In the winter you ski, skate and have fun. In the summer you swim in the gulf of Bothnia or a similar place. Can you imagine what I had to tell my host family in southern England when I was 15? They thought I was a savage from another planet. Great work :)
Beautiful photography, as always! "Please wait for me to get out the way" from Jack 😂 when Naomi is trying her hand with the axe. Love how you're living life to the full!
😂😂😅😅 thank you sooo much ❤️ I need a lot more practice with the axee
@@NaomiandJack Me too! What camera was Jack using to film you skiing?
When it gets cold like -25c or lower do not use ”normal” facecream. The best is if you do not wash the face in the morning, if it gets really cold do not wash your face at all. The best protection is the natural grease from your own body.
In the north of sweden you do not have to worry about dirt in the air, it is clean.
Also protect your face when you go outside and check your feet and hands for frostbite.
How Cold Does it Get ?
Thanks for my holiday cheer! Naomi you are hilarious.😂😂😂 Jack you are a wonderful hard working organized man with such a loving heart toward’s darling Naomi. Have a Merry Christmas from California 🎄☃️😉 Penny
Naomi melts my heart with her sense of awe and excitement.... and Jack is a real sweet and gentle man. I wish them a long and happy life together. You two are a real inspiration! Shalom from Georgia, USA. 12/19/2020
All you get from nature is inner satisfaction, contentment. You are right. It is a different feeling compare to when you live in a materialistic environment. Love your videos and your wisdoms. Keep it up! 👍🎉💝
Old doesn't always mean "Broken". They just need to be "Re-loved" to be useful. Glad your neighbors were looking out for you. Hugs and Happy Holidays.
4:39 how beautiful sunset is... and every moments is very wonderful..😍 Love from Korea👍🇰🇷
I'm originally from Northern Norway, now living in Canada. I'm loving your video's, it's almost like being back home. Naomi, a tip for your knitting is to wind an elastic around the ends of each of your knitting needles, the end you're not knitting from. That way you can knit back and forth without any concern of stitches falling off the other end of the needle.
You are doing well GJ. Happy that you enjoy life here. Winter is for me having lived my whole life here the most challenging time. more or less every day moving snow. Coming home tired and finding 3 feet of snow high wall of snow at the driveway.
Makes me sometimes dream of living in the tropics. hehe.
great that you try to turn what feels heavy to something positive.
I have lived my whole life here and at times i am struggling.
turning the fight around to the winter enviroment, is one step. make it fun, make your mind stronger.
Anyhow respect and i love the entusiasm. /hug.
You both are such beautiful people, the world is a better place because you are both in it! Brightest Blessing from Tampa Florida U.S.A.
Such hard workers. Inspirational
As a born Swede, from Gothenborgh area, I wouldn't want the experiense of northern Sweden. The snow, the darkness, the cold.... but you are just faboulous. From the narrow streets of London to the wilderness, I just love this
They are TRUE PIONEERS !
It's sooo satisfying to watch the upspeed last part where you move stuff and fixing place to a snowmobile 🤩🥳
Jack of all trades , his name says it all . My dad name is jack as well and he is a man of all trades indeed,My dad could do anything as well. Your videos really give you that sense of peace on the Saturday thank you 🙏
Naomi, you once stated that Jack gets s_ _ t done, and he most certainly does! Girl, you were so brave going down the slopes, I couldn't see your fear. Well done Naomi!!! I love you guys! Your videos are so well done, I wait anxiously for your posts. You guys never disappoint.
If limited space, you don't have to store a snowmobile inside, just keep it outside with a cover over. Same actually with the snowblower. Both are made to handle cold start well. Just keep some kind of cover over them. I have both my snowblower and snowmobile outside whole winter.
I thought the same! Sweden way is to have them outside!
Wow, we love you Jack and Naomi 🥰🥰
No matter how long or short these videos are I am always left wanting more....they are so captivating
This is INTO THE WILD LIVE !
You guys are so humble, appreciative and wonderful... I love it. It's very refreshing to see God's work in your lives and how He blessed you all with property that has provided so much provision for maintaining your home. I love you guys so much.
You are right as is your mother. Happy that you have found contentment and joy, and are trying so many new things.
Oooooh your knitting!!!! I LOVE knitting❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️I love you guys more❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Amazing job Jack and Naomi. Work hard and have some fun also, all that snow is overwhelming to plough😐. You both just make it happen, team work with the one you love😍
Naomi, you sitting in the cosy lounge knitting, with ?Lola? looking so cute being an adorable kitten on the floor, and Jack asking about your knitting. That right there is the simple pleasure of life that people discover once they move away from the ratrace of the big city. Whether you realise it or not you're making home movies for your children and grandchildren to watch. What a special gift. Enjoy your lives. Merry Christmas.💗
I love this couple. This is my dream life! Moving to a Nordic country with my future husband and live a quiet, off-the-grid life. You guys are my inspiration. Thanks for sharing with us!!
Dreams have a place to come true
Same here, I want to run away to sweden in the next 5 years. 🙃 never know if it'll happen unless I make it happen.
Start chatting with me. I might be there next year, without a wife...
Where are we wiaiting for? Let's go😎
Omggg dreams can totally be found here . Also off a relationship was found on this channel it would make my year !! Love you lots Naomi xx
A snöskoter is a must living in Lappland 😃👍🏻
You both are so blessed to have each other!!!☃️☃️☃️
Naomi and Jack always inspiring.
Naomi I a proud of you for acknowledging the gift and remembering your mother's words.
Because old equipment was more quality than today's own.
God Bless your family.
Merry Christmas to two hard working young people be happy with wonderful life you have God bless.
I'm a knitter of many years . I can't wait to see your finished scarf 👏🏽‼️
he reallllly wants that snowmobile because that was work work!
The trick to get take out in rural parts.
The food gets the passenger seat during the drive home, turn on heated seat to full blast. Have warm food when you get home.
Fantastic video Naomi and Jack for real! I loved it! Really!!
I'm so inspired Naomi! This was very entertaining and fun! 🙏 Your mom is correct about valuing things that are proven and have been around a long time. Some think that impressing others is important but I think the world wide shutdown is waking them up. It is indeed family friends good neighbors warm food fulfilling tasks and working to get It done. It is laughter and being thrilled to be alive and if really fortunate it is having a partner to share it all with. I am glad that you found your JACK and him his NAOMI! May every one find their own mate who makes it all better! Happiness Joy & contentment to you ALL! 🌲🏠🎄🏫🌲🏠🌲🌲🍄🏠🌲🌲✨👌
I’m so happy for the both of you. I want to thank you for sharing your life with us ❤️.
Totally hooked on you guys can't stop binge watching Sweden is so beautiful
Hi Naomi and Jack.... So good to see you enjoying the winter. Love your videos. Thank you for sharing all those beauties with us.
So good to see you embrace your life, and all that it means, in Northern Sweden! Good for you, Naomi and Jack!! You are building memories for a lifetime!!! USA
Memories to look back on. I love the way u r enjoying your selves. Just do it while you can.😎💖😍
Greetings from Kenya 🇰🇪 Always looking forward to your videos 🤗
They are Great ! Good Sport !
I love you guys, so cool what you are doing.x
If you have heated seats In your car, turn the heat on and put the take away on the seat. That’s how you keep your food warm. 🙂
Good idea 😎👏👏👏💖
And wrap it in a blanket, that helps too.
great idea
These are children with very little practical life skills.
@@downeastermaineusa3794 . Are you not unnecessarily harsh? or simply sanctimonious?
I just love your vlogs. They makes me feel inspired. Lovely scenery.
Lovely...I am smiling all the way again! Another amazing Sunday with my favourite cup of coffee and "Lapland Couple". You guys keep well there!
Festive Greetings from England! P.s. OMG! you glad you don't live in London right now!!!! Lina x
Covid has been devastating for a lot of people. But one thing is for sure we will be forever changed because of it. It has taught me about not sweating the small stuff. Being grateful and giving like never before. Oh and also being less materialistic. Naomi you handled that ski slope like a pro you guys are a inspiration!!!
There is an old saying, "where there is a will there is a way" and Jack sure made a way for their snowmobile. Naomi also enjoyed skiing and splitting wood. You are such an inspiration!
I just love guys...I am so glad you guys will invest in a snowmobile. Being born in Ohio during the winter months that is a must have. I look forward to see you cuties explore Sweden together. Enjoy 😉😉
miss my old hometown Arvidsjaur when I see you there 😥 love your videos...
How Cold Does it Get There ?
@@holoholopainen1627
the average temperature in January is -15°C but it can be anything between -30 to -40°C on really cold days.
Those days it feels like the synovial fluid freezes in the knee and everything feels "slow" in the body when you move.
those days you stay inside =)
@@pellejutterstrom Tack ! I been following This INTO THE WILD - Sweden Style for some time now ! They are GREAT SPORT - and doing it on TH-cam ! This is REALITY SHOW - and You never know What happens NEXT !
I absolutely love both of you, so happy you had fun and faced your fears!!
We are very grateful to have you here 💕
I love you guys. You have transform that house to be like a million dollars worth. Jack is very DIY Naomi too. Love you
You two are so sweet and hard working! Enjoy the fun and stay safe. :)
Oh my God you are making the scarf☺☺. Skiiiing! I just cried watching this video ☺
Naomi you're so right when you talk about how we follishly consume items that we don't need and throw away things that we could have used a little more or have used to an other purpose... That society of over consumerism is killing the real purpose of consuming. Your journey in Sweden is a kind of 'out of the grid' from that society and you've discovered a kind of ' live stream' life. That's simply great.
Absolutely spectacular vlog. It’s like a Hallmark moment 🌷So enjoyable to watch the pure love & support between you guys, and the pizza looked mouth-watering!
Enjoy watching Naomi and Jack. I am learning so much from you guys. Did I say I could be your mom . Just to show we could learn from any one . Thanks.
You guys are having an awesome adventure. Naomi you looked great on the slopes.
I'm inspired to live my own life more fully, just watching you two make room in your lives and your shed for more adventures and fun. Plus the "Hey" music doesn't hurt!! Haha!! USA
Jack making room for the snowmobile, ' he really is a "Jack of all Trade"! Opening up this video with a beautiful snow covered scene is amazing! You will have a 'White Christmas' for sure! I'm dreaming of one in Miami! Just in case it doesn't come, I will visualize this beautiful scene you showed me! Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to you both! Happy Saturday! 🤗
Lovely to see Vithatten in the snow and low winter sun. That was the most enjoyable video yet.
A true delight watching your videos. You are doing great! Welcome to Sweden! And -11 is nothing in the dry inland winter air when you got proper clothing and keep moving.
Such a fun video.
good work jack am amaze at how the both of you do very good diy at your place without any knowledge of it before.
I so enjoy my visit with you guys. Keep up the good work and keep warm.🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Glad to see you're enjoying it all. 🌲🎄🎅💞💞💞
I'm awe struck at how you two work and play together in a winter wonderland; and there is something about the music scores I just love. You are blessed to have each other.
Well done! Have a great Xmas season! It is always so nice to see your new video!
Ooo Naomi looks so chic shovelling the snow
Love your decision to take the step into the unkown,, you’r brave and positive people.
Its extremly fun to watch you have the problems we have every year... i see my life in a new prospective 😁 / a swedish Guy who hates the cold
Well I have to admit very surprise how good handy man Jack is huge respect proper man job done over there Like it 👍👍👍
You are doers. Love it. ❤️
Good Saturday. Its my way of knowing which day of the week
WOW... Another awesome video, really loves watching your vlogs, such a lovely couple .. Merry Christmas to you both. stay safe and positive always from Wales UK...
My people 🤗🤗❤️
I love watching you guys , thanks for sharing☺️.
Lovely winter weather! ❤
Use the same bags for keeping yourtakeaway food warm as you use in the summer for keeping food and water cold. So amazing video!
MERRY CHRISTMAS! 🎅❄🎁🌲☃️🌨🕯
Amazing. Look at Jack go!
I am sooo impressed with all you do! I am a Swede who's done pretty much all you do, but you do it with such a style! Keep up the good work and thanks for the vids!
Beautiful video, as always 😊 you guys have a blessed life
So beautiful you both are. Sweden also! I’m much impressed with doing that hard work, to make room for a snow mobile, in those frigid temperatures!
If this was your first time on the slopes you wouldn’t know, as I remember taking to the slopes and falling down on so many times but once it clicks we absolutely luv it.
Enjoy watching the videos about your adventures in cold country. 💚
Thank you for the video 😁 I wish you and your viewers a wonderful day!!😁🎄💐💐💐
You aced that slope! Iḿ impressed!
As long as you are having fun you can face anything together!!
It is so funny to see the speed up of when Jack is cleaning place for snow mobile.
He started with all that clothes on him and every second there is less and less ;-)
Jack, next time remember it...and take more clothes down at the beginning so your other clothes don't get wet from sweat.
And some thin hat could be still good to have...if there is more than -5 ;-)
Btw, you did really a lot of work there!!!
Amazing how handy and talented you both are- well done! Merry Christmas from Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦
