My 2nd Winter of Full Time Extreme Van Life Living, Surviving Blizzard, Snow Storm Cozy Cold Camping

Driving to the extreme winter in the Arctic "Alaska of the Nordics". I spend the entire winter solo van cozy camping & cooking, dodging snow storms, ice blizzards, record-breaking hurricanes, polar vortex snow tornados and extreme arctic freezing winter temperatures in my RV luxury van. This is the complete "New Year Special" winter season of 2024 in one 13 hour long full movie, so you can put it on and go to sleep and relax with the ASMR sounds of the arctic storms and northern lights. I travel in a big loop and explore the remote coast and other arctic regions. Can my van and I endure the harshest conditions known to man? We will see as I show you my every day life with cooking pizza, burgers, the most important meal of the day, coffee, and many other things. Winter Survival in a van. Enjoy!

My van is a Fiat Ducato, FWD with Nokian Winter Tires. This is the same as a Ram Promaster in the USA and Canada but with a diesel engine and manual transmission.

Surviving my 2nd Winter of Extreme Van Life, Blizzard, Snow Storm Camping & Freezing Cold which includes:
This is my complete second winter of Winter Van Life in extreme conditions in the North, living in a van during freezing temperatures. Starting in November I go through the whole winter season of snowy winter adventures from November to April, with snow storms, blizzards, extreme cold, extreme snowfall, slippery roads and some amazing winter beauty as well.
I also show you what I learn as I go from my second winter in the van.

About me: I am a Norwegian adventurer and wilderness explorer. My youtube channel focus on outdoor wilderness adventures and exploration, backpacking, hiking, canyoneering, skiing, climbing and mountaineering. Nights spent in a tent, alone or with friends. From the snow covered mountains and misty fjords of Norway and Scandinavia to the remote plateaus of Yellowstone and the debts of the red canyons of Utah to the summit of Mt Whitney and the heart of Sequoia Kings Canyon National Park. I love the Wilderness! Email is under "For business inquiries", for general questions please comment on a video, I try to answer everyone.

Happy New Year!!

I enjoyed this epic footage of your Arctic winter season tour. I watched it over several nights. Your cinematography is second to none. Some fantastic drone footage capturing spectacular landscape and terrain.

I especially liked the northern lights, with the added bonus of spotting satellites streak across the night sky.

Thank you!

All the best for 2025

We've just watched 5 hours and there's so much more to come! Very happy to see the Lofoten again, my heart skips a beat every time I see those images. I still have to work on Monday and Tuesday and then we will be off for a while. It's wonderful to spend time with my family. My father already texted me how far we are in watching your video. Maybe we'll watch the rest together with him. Have a beer and some tasty snacks. Wood stove on. This is how Christmas should be. I hope you can also spend Christmas with your family. I wish you very happy and warm days and a prosperous but above all healthy 2025. And may you make many journeys and take us with you! I hope we can meet in June. For a beer or a cup of coffee, some food, a hike and a good conversation. Take care Jarl. Stay safe.

13 hours of Norway / Arctic that hardly anyone knows! Wonderful shots with the drone! Christmas with your Arctic Winter was really good for me! I look forward to more videos.

[Lia_Bloom]

Your adventures through the snowy icy mysterious Norway's landscapes are breathtaking! It must take a very courageous, inspired and free-spirited mindset to get to explore the beauty of the world like this. Thank you so much for giving us such a magical window for escapism from the mundane of life, for giving us another reason to continue to be in awe of the planet's gorgeous uniqueness and fascinating wonder, to find inspiration and value for the future. You need to know that your cinematography is very rich and amazing, but your music has triggered an emotional avalanche in us in good way. We listen to some of your soundtracks on a daily basics and can't get enough---so masterfully it composed. So many feelings can be heard through those melodies, so many shades of an extraordinary human experiences in this world. One of those melodies just blew our minds with its beauty, but we can't find it anywhere, so it's probably very precious to you. The one which can be found in this video at 11:52:00. Do you have it anywhere released for us to enjoy it more? Sincerely, Lia
