    We were SO close to not having a boat anymore... Welcome back to a new video, in this one we explain, and show you, why we haven't been on a boat trip in forever. We also take you with us on our FIRST boat-trip in a month!! We go to see walruses, glaciers, and lots of Svalbard beauty. I hope you enjoy it, and thank you so much for being here! 🧡☕️

      Dear Cecilia. First of all thank you for your beautiful and inspiring videos. Every week i'm looking forward to see your newest video. It gives me the right motivation to see the beauty of the day and the world. But I also want to thank you for your book tips. What a great book by Sarah J Maas. I read the first book in 3 days! I loved it. Thank you! Greetings from the Netherlands

    I would love to learn more about the tundra, grass, flowers and things that grow on Svalbard! Is anything edible, any which animals eat what? Your interviews are so fascinating, are there any tundra specialists you could interview? That would be so interesting! :) Love your videos. Thank you

    Hi Cecilia, I am one of your silent watcher, I just wanna say I can’t believe that its been a year and I keep on watching all your vlogs and I remembered you only have few thousands of subscribers and now you reach 200k 🎉🎉🎉 Congratulations. For some reason your vlogs are so calming to watch especially during winter times when you are doing you’re a day in your life in Svalbard. I can’t wait on your next with vlogs.
    Thank you for all the videos and sharing the majestic place of svalbard.

    Oh cecilia what a wonderful episode. The photography made it very special and of course the icing on the cinnamon bun was the walruses ❤️ I didn’t know who your passenger was and thought he might be Christopher’s brother. I am watching from Scotland with not dissimilar views but not so cold! And no wildlife like Svalbard. Looking forward to the next one 🤩

    I don't know what stressed me out more ~ the boat nearly toppling over on to its side, or the fact that the yellow construction vehicle nearly drowned! These people are so skilled!
    I think when I come visit your beautiful island, I will probably cry at the scenery. It's just like no other anywhere on Earth. Thank you for taking us on your adventures ~ I truly feel so connected to you, your home, and your life. 💜💜

    This was a wonderful video! I loved the scenery (wow…especially the walrus lying on the edge of the bank in the water!) and the coffee making (so relaxing!), as well as Fenris helping you row 🤣! I will admit I almost had a heart attack when you were first pulling the boat out! I was happy to see the corrections made on the trailer…it went much more smoothly the second time! Thank you for sharing your boating adventures with us!
