    That was one of my favourite parts of that video. Especially how the reindeer didn't care. Where I live we have some stubborn deer (I once was late to work because the street was blocked for quite some time by a herd of deer just standing there and refusing to move) but it you meet them singly most of them run away if they perceive you (I only met one who didn't, she stood on the other side of a fence and watched my dog complaining vocally because I didn't allow him to try and hunt her - to his defense he's been a stray for most of his life and hadn't realised at that point that he doesn't need to catch his own food anymore). Seeing this reindeer so unaffected was pretty funny.

My goodness you got some good moments for this video Cecilia!!:) To Lynn, thank you so much for being willing to share yourself with all of us.

    We just returned from our holiday in Svalbard and it was wonderful. The polar night is so incredibly relaxing, and the mood in town is so chilled out. If you really want to slow down, this is the perfect place. Besides, there are a lot of activities you can do such as dog sledding, driving a snowmobile, going hiking to an ice cave, visiting an authentic coal mine, hunting northern lights, and beer tasting among many others and we were lucky to attend a local bar crawl - the Julemarsj. Thanks for your videos that made us go there, indeed :) And guess what, we saw you in the Svalbar and sat behind you, but of course, we didn't want to disturb you ;)

I've been friends with one since we were 5 years old, 57 years ago. I experienced a devasting family tragedy recently - my youngest Sister died suddenly. As soon as my friend found out she was here, she'll also be at her funeral next week to offer support and a hug. Close friends are often like an extension of family - we may go for weeks without seeing each other, but we know we'll be there for each other through fun times and sad times.

    I live in the far east of Russia and i can't help noticing just how well lit your town is. We don't have polar nights here in my town, but still it is pretty dark. In winter we go for work while it's still dark, during the daytime the sun is up, but when it's time to go back home it's already dark again. But the streets here are dark as f... Most lanterns don't work which is a shame. I'm glad that they take good care of those things in Svalbard, so it looks cosy and safe. Thank you for your videos.

    I wish I could see it with my own eyes. Everything looks so serene, right out of a storybook. To bundle up, find a quiet spot and just gaze at the aurora would be so cathartic. PS For the waiter/waitress that dropped the bottle. Your not wasting it, you’re sharing with those that aren’t with us anymore. It’s an old motto from a restaurant I used to work at.

    What a lovely way to think about it. I'd love to be sharing a drink with my Dad again, and next time I spill anything (alcoholic) I'll toast him and be sharing it with him. Thanks for letting us know about this lovely tradition. 😊

People work together and have fun where you live. You are so creative and down-to-earth. Grim's commercial had me laughing so much, with the hats and the glasses. More Grim commercials anytime, please, haha.🤣🎀🐶🦌♥
