Our strongest SNOWSTORM in years & the AFTERMATH | Svalbard, Longyearbyen

This snowstorm brought HURRICANE SPEED winds!! The strongest winds we've ever experienced here at our cabin on Svalbard. In this video we spent a few days stuck in our cabin, and we also head into Longyearbyen to see how the village deals with the aftermath of a big snowstorm. I hope you enjoy the video and thank you so much for being here! 🧡☕️

I don't know how to put this into words, hopefully I'm not the only one. Cecilia, there is something about you that turns everything into magic. Your videos are dream like, fairy dust and magic yet you are so relatable, down to earth and so kind. I will watch your videos till the day I die or you stop making them. Thank you isn't enough but I have no money to give. My love is what I can give and I do.

Grim knows that your viewers love him, so he decided to show himself in all his glory 😅

[venessalizabeth]

Grim absolutely REFUSING to go outside is too pure 😅

[amyh]

Grim was on point today! Lying down next to his buried toy 🥰 “Please help, momma!”

[Zcoop]

Grim’s reaction to going outside was too cute. “ yes I’m a tough husky but umm no…” 🤣😍

As a Canadian, it's so refreshing to watch a channel i can relate to. There are so many vloggers making videos about their tropical vacation in Bali, etc. Seeing videos about snow & cold makes me feel like i do belong on YT LOL. My latest video was me shoveling. 🧊

[nicolaoffert]

I love how Grim wanted you to dig his toy out the snow for him, like he had no claws to do it himself ! 🐶🐾❤️ Thank you for another lovely video. 💕

Just a small token of appreciation for all of your videos and content. Very much in love with your fluffy teddy bear, Grim!

[robertmcnamara]

Seeing our national animal as a toy for Grimm was hilarious. Thank you for such wonderful stories and film of Svalbard and your lifestyle, from downunder.

Grim is such a sweetie. He reminds me of my baby Blue, but he had blue eyes. I just miss him so much. He's been gone for 2 years now but my heart is still broken. I love to see Grim acting silly and talking. Blue did the same. Thank you!

Cecilia is strong. Built like a Valkyrie. Can take on any polar bear... Not afraid of a snow storm. 🌨🏂

Imagining how many people smile when Grim wags his fluffy tail. 🇸🇯🐶❤️🙋✨

Stay warm, keep being so sweet to each other. It radiates farther than you may know. 💕🐾🐕‍🦺🌍

Glad to hear that the storm has passed with no major consequences! I can’t wait to be there in a couple of weeks!

[angiegirl]

Yes it is beautiful and very magical looking. Almost like a Hallmark Christmas card

[dianebondhus]

The Northern Lights were so beautiful! 💖 Thanks for sharing. Grim sure loved it when the storm ended 😁

[lindapearson]

I love shoveling snow! I have house-sat people who both had big circular driveways. It took me several hours each day to complete it. The general caught me on their camera and sent his son to tell me I did need to do that, but when he came home he was glad to be able to drive right in and I was grateful to be able to get out! Their dogs and I had a ball being out in the snow chasing each other! Oh, this was in the north Seattle are, where they usually don’t get a lot if any snow.

[slewandowski]

It is beautiful there! Grim is a delight. Every time Grim barked or played with his squeaky toy, my daushund Ginger, would get sooo concerned and confused. She would start crying and barking. Funny that a dog at the most northern place and a dog in Alabama, USA could understand each other!
So glad everyone is safe from the storm!

[nadinekore]

I love that your videos come out on Sundays!... So cosy! Are you not scared that one day #GRRrim will say something with an actual voice? He is so expressive!

[judyconstantino]

Your cabin must have incredible construction to withstand that storm!

[carimclerran]

Grim *face in the camera* "Is this my best side?" Maybe?....No..." *Moves butt and tail, wagging happily because he's a gem* "Ah, there we go, got THE best angle of me, enjoy my fans!". :'D This channel makes me so happy! You all are amazing.
