Surviving a Winter of Extreme Van Life. Freezing Camping, Aurora & Snow Storm in the Arctic #vanlife
Surviving my first full arctic winter of extreme Van Life in blizzards, snow storms, Camping in Freezing Temperatures, avalanches & Arctic Surf. Frozen Worlds & Nat Geo Travel style beauty on our planet. I try to get to the end of the world in this episode, a lot of long relaxing driving and drone shots form the beautiful frozen worlds. Temperatures below -20°, northern lights and stunning arctic scenery. A little bit of snow storm cozy camping in the darkest place I have ever been.

My van is a Fiat Ducato, FWD with Nokian Hakkapaliitta Winter Tires. This is the same as a Ram Promaster in the USA and Canada but with a diesel engine, like the one Ryan Twomey uses but diesel and manual transmission, not an Earthroamer by far lol.

Surviving my first Winter of Extreme Van Life, Blizzard, Snow Storm Camping & Freezing Cold which includes:
This is my complete first winter of Winter Van Life in extreme conditions in the North, living in a van during freezing temperatures. Starting in January I go through the whole winter season of snowy winter adventures from January 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 learned from my first 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.

Great video as always👌
It looks very cold🥶
There is quite allot of advertisement though which wakes me up with a shock when I’m falling asleep to this nice and quiet video😪
Thank you as again another wonderful journey of exquisite scenery.
I went last year fantastic scenery, Interesting museum with the history of North Cap. Not many places to park up on the route , most blocked by snow pushed up by the snow ploughs
thanks for the tour
I look forward to each episode of your travels, I envy you so much, it always looks so cosy in your van, although I'm sure that's not always the case! Glad to see we Welsh people are supporting you!
Everytime I watch these wonderful footages, I feel no sadness or pain anymore 🧡🧡🧡 Travelling through your reality like if it was in our dream.
Incredible video as usual. I may look at this when exercising on the indoor bicycle tomorrow. Fantastic scenery😊
Always beautiful ❤
By the time that place thaws out it'll be winter again 😅
I love your videos. Always dream to visit Norway and Finland one day. One day take a nice beer with you! I born in the wrong country, Brazil is too hot. Can't find this song on youtube, Melantopia – In the Shadows of Younts Peak…this is truly amazing. Cheers, all the best.
Beautiful video as usual
