    So here’s an idea with cooking with Christopher! Do a video/recipe in your current house. And then compare that to a recipe in the cabin.

I think that would be an interesting actually really interesting series.

    Two people and their dog who live about as remotely as most of us can begin to imagine, buy a cabin even more remote! Very exciting. It's so good that the previous owners left everything so that you can spend time there immediately. It's a very cute cabin and very cozy. Without electricity though, how will you light it, especially in the Polar Night? You need enough light to not have your bodies hibernate and to be able to read or play games. Candles look lovely but are no good for reading.

    Congrats to you both. What an amazing journey. I've been following you for almost two years and now I'm really digging in to all of the videos. Such fun to absorb and learn and makes me even more excited for my polar night visit to Svalbard in January. Thanks for putting out amazing stuff. I'm going to have to buy one of those Grim signed books, too :)

    the scariest thing about polar bears is they eat slow and their priority isn't killing you because the longer you are alive the longer you are warm and easier to eat. maybe its just a folks tale but someone told me once and it made sense and is pretty damn scary

      The same with a lot of bears, they just hold you down and tear bites off.
      I love the landscape, the solitude the dark nights and beautiful stars, and would enjoy being off grid but bears absolutely terrify me. I wouldn't be able to sleep and would be ill from anxiety.

    LOL as someone with a healthy fear of bears (we have black bears where I live and I've unexpectedly encountered them too many times), the fact that a polar bear attack is possible would keep me away from the cabin life. But the views are stunning!!

    I am over the moon for the two of you!! Christopher looks so deeply happy and I am happy for him because I know he has wanted this for a long time. And spending the first night in a new place is just the best, isn't it? How wonderful that the previous owners left all of their stuff behind that you could use since it takes a while to get everything to that cabin. Bless the two of you and thank you for bringing a piece of your life to me whose life is slower now that I'm older and you have no idea how much joy you bring to so many of us by just living this life and sharing it with us so thank you so very much!
