Join Cecilia Blomdahl in Longyearbyen, Svalbard, the world's northernmost town.

Located in the Arctic Ocean near the North Pole, Svalbard is a unique archipelago that boasts stunning wintry landscapes, endangered arctic animals, and awe-inspiring natural phenomena. Since 2016, Cecilia has called this beautiful and remote location home. Along with her partner Christoffer and her dog Grim, she has adjusted to life at the top of the world—where polar bears roam free and the northern lights shine.

With evocative text, Cecilia shares the joys and challenges of adapting to an inhospitable climate along with advice and insight for anyone seeking to thrive in unusual living conditions.

Whatever your location, Life on Svalbard will give you a deeper understanding of why people choose to live in extreme environments, and perhaps help you find the hidden magic of where you live, too.

This journey is an absolute dream! Not only are the photos stunning, but the description and narrative, provided by the author, transports you to Svalbard. Knowing the odds of me being able to make it that far north are slim, I enjoy this escape into a dream world. Whimsical, calming, and magical is how I describe this beautiful book.

I found Cecilia on YouTube a few months ago and fell in love with her story and life in Svalbard. I loved that she narrated her book herself - she did a fantastic job! I have the signed physical book on its way, but couldn’t resist getting the audio version so I could listen to it while I travel for work. From season to season, adventure to adventure, and from polar bears and walruses to Grimm, the book is VERY interesting and entertaining. Loved!!

A thoughtful and picturesque description of a harsh and beautiful place. The author’s own voice pulls you in to each chapter leaving a feeling that you are there feeling the chill, hearing the ocean, basking in the quiet of nature.

Takes you to another world…

I've been following Cecilia's YouTube and IG channels for many years. I purchased both her book and Audible book because I love both her photography and her voice. Cecilia does a wonderful job bringing the unique quality of her life in the Arctic to her followers and readers, which is quite the opposite to my life in the desert. Thank you, Cecilia.

Cecilia is a wonderful storyteller

Cecilia did a great job writing and reading the book. Her descriptions of life on Svalbard are very good. I have had the pleasure of visiting Longyearbyen and her writing brings back a flood of memories. This is a good listen for those who would like to visit and also for those who already have.

Such a fun read!
