I survived the Arctic winter (Van Life)

Unfortunately this is the final part of my Arctic van life road trip. This episode started off with a little accident where I may have crashed the van into a snow bank... Fortunately @MispronouncedAdventures was on hand to help!

Following a mini rescue operation, I continued the journey. I thought I'd spend the 2nd to last night out of the van, so I took a very unique taxi to a small cabin that's sat on top of a frozen lake! It was an amazing experience and a great way to unwind and reflect on the trip and everything I've done.

After this I wanted to bring you guys along for one final night in the van, so I headed towards the coast and found a little village to stay for the night. And before heading home, I had one last thing in mind. To drive my camper van onto an ice road, out on the frozen sea!

Thank you so much for following this series. It's so good knowing that so many people have enjoyed it!

You last words were so spot on. I’ve spent the last 30 years working in my business. I’ve decided it’s time to sell up, get a van and travel. Your words are true.

[josephinetedds]

I’m a 70 year old woman who has loved every episode of your journey. I admire you greatly. Love your sense of humour, your intellect, your appreciation of the beauty of your surroundings and your poetic words at the end of your spectacular journey. Thank you for taking us along with you. Well done. 🥰🤗

I am living in Sweden, and I am happy that you as a foreigner showing the beauty of Sweden on YouTube. Your channel is really good and I love to see more from you. 😊 🇸🇪

Your last words really got to me. Another great video

[derektaylor]

Well that was a bit of a find. Yesterday flicking between accounts, thinking it might be vaguely interesting. Little did I realise just how interesting- and entertaining- it would become. There can't be many people who have done what this bloke has. A thoroughly impressive van conversion too.

One small useless piece of information: that last little drive over the frozen sea- it's the one place in the Continent of Europe where it is illegal to wear a seatbelt. Yes, you take the seatbelt off- just in case the ice breaks and you need to get out the vehicle fast.

But what an absolutely brilliant series.

Your cinematography is nothing short of brilliant and your sense of humour is entertaining

[samuelholmes]

You have certainly had an amazing trip and it has been fascinating to watch! Thank you!

There’s not many people I’m in awe of mate, after 42 years in the Army, I thought I’d meet them all, but I’m truly in awe of you and your thirst for Adzventures. Well done mate, I always watch with bated breath at the next leg of your journey and you certainly don’t disappoint. We should give a big shout out to @MispronouncedAdventures, as he’s like the 4th emergency service and nothing seems to phase him. Well done to you both and looking forward to the next one matey. 👍🏻

Love it when alex turns up shows how easy is for things to start going wrong

Thank you for sharing your incredible adventure with fun and laughter.

You truly are an amazing and unique content producer. Well done. A VERY, VERY rare commodity these days on YouTube. I wish you all the success on your next venture.

Hey Adz, been watching you for a little while as I find you quite amusing but my word, you blew it out of the park at the end! I lost my Brother and my Dad to Covid just 10 days apart but it gave us the ass kicking we needed to buy a motorhome and go full time. We're 8 months in and wouldn't change it for the world. We try to give everyone we meet the same message as you have but damn I wish I was as eloquent as you. By the way, I'm not crying 😢

[lukeperman]

Brilliant mate. Just found your channel through looking at van builds and thoroughly enjoyed following your arctic expedition. Good on you for following your dream - go well !

[keep-going]

Yes, people should enjoy their time. I'm 66, and l harp on about keeping fit as you get older. I see so many folk my age sitting around eating biscuits, getting fat, and giving up before the final 🔔 . Most of us have a choice of what we do with our time, and if we are lucky to have that choice, we should choose wisely.

[Askabar]

With the cracking sounds I'd be outta there lol

[mscheibl]

Your ending was so appropriate. Time is the most precious thing we have. Followed by our health.

[justinehughes]

I watch every week just for your sense of humour, you have me in stitches 😂

[Henchman]

Lovely, inspirational words at the end mate. I'm not crying, you're crying.
I've really enjoyed your trip (!) and I'm glad you've managed to do something that you always wanted to do.
On to the next one...
