Why I have to carry Polar Bear protection when walking my dog | SVALBARD close to the North Pole

Greetings from Svalbard, an island close to the North Pole where we have polar bears! In this video I talk a bit more about polar bears and why we need to carry polar bear protection when out walking our dogs! I hope you enjoy the video! :)

    Hello Cecilia. Greetings from the Philippines. I just recently stumbled upon your vlog and I am really fascinated to learn about your daily life in the beautiful, wintery paradise of Svalbard. As a person living in a tropical country, I don't think I could easily thrive there. Seeing those tons of snow are enough to make me shiver hehe. But I hope, one day I could visit there to experience The Polar Night/Midnight Sun and of course the majestic Northern Lights!

Did some dog sledding on Foxfonna glacier , kayaking to and hiking at Hiorthhamn and had a walk through Bjorndalen with a guide ;-)). It all was topped by a 5 days cruise with Hurtigrutens MS Nordstjernen to Barentsburg, Pyramiden and so many arctic glaciers and fjords and fortunately polar bear observations as well. We will come back for sure sometime in March to have the colours of the pastel winter. Enjoy your life and the different seasons up there !

    I recently found and subscribed to your channel and I love your videos so much! The landscape is breathtaking and the way you film and edit your videos makes them so enjoyable to watch. You guys did an amazing job on the cabin extension, it’s so cozy and the VIEW omg 😍 I live in Canada and once it gets below 10C I lose all interest in going outside lol but you make winter and the polar night seem so appealing. I think what really makes your videos stand out though is that they’re not only about consumption (I do seek out and enjoy that sort of content, so no hate to anyone). I just find it very refreshing to see your videos because whether intentional or not, there seems to be more of an emphasis on being happy with what you have and where you are, as well as sharing what it’s like to live in such a unique and beautiful place. Oh and Grim is probably the cutest dog I’ve ever seen!!

    Your videos are always stunningly beautiful! I'm not a big fan of the cold, but I love seeing how the landscape changes in Svalbard over the year. And Grim always steals the show : ) I have a possible video idea: Pets on Svalbard. What animals are allowed, which are not, what's different about having them on the island vs. the mainland, etc. Looking forward to seeing your next video (and more Grim)!

    I'm an very curious about that too! I used to watch this guy that was a tattoo artist lives in Australia and he has like a I think Alaskan Malamute or maybe it's a husky but it really looks miserable living in such heat. Seems like borderline abuse, certain dogs shouldn't be in certain climates you know I understand everybody doesn't feel that way but it just seems like common sense. But I always wonder like are there cats there where she is because you never see any you know?

    Soo beautiful!!! I love so much the majestic mountains, the calm snow, the fiercely adorable (from a distance) polar bears, the gentle reindeer, loyal Grim (my sidekick is Tina, my Shiba Inu), and your beautifully designed cozy cabin with the best view ever. 💕💕✨✨✨

    I just find out your channel and it’s amazing!!! I’ve been binge watching for a few hours now. It’s so lovely to see what it’s like to live in the North Pole, so different from where I live (the Sonora dessert in Mexico). Thank you for showing your amazing home!! Hope to see it with my own eyes one day!! Greetings and love from Mexico!!

    Another beautiful video. I'm glad the guns are a last resort but it's also a comfort knowing you have that protection with you anyways. It looks almost magical with the snow. The kind of scenery you'd find in fantasy movies.

    It's amazing how dogs react to that. A friend's dog used to howl at the siren on the fire engine. I've heard wild dogs in the mountains near here howling to each other - especially at night, but sometimes during the day too.

    I will be interested to see how the new home extension fares throughout the Svalbard Winter. Insulation, plumbing, etc. My guess is it will be fine.
