“Maybe if you dont fit in the world out there, then maybe this is your place.”

True words hit home

"It's the animals homes. We're guests"
Carry guns everywhere.
Bears be like, "worst guests ever. Can't take a hint."

I love this. 51 different nationalities all living peacefully together who welcome newcomers.

I need a place like this just to ‘detox’ from the current mad world. I need my human senses back.

This is why documenting places like this is important as they won't be here forever

This is the introverted dream

Youtube algorithm showing me remote places to visit while I'm on lockdown because of COVID19.

"oh my god, what am i doing here. This is not my place"

I think, for a person like me, sunlight is the most important. It gives so much energy and positive vibes. Hats off to the people who manage to live in their houses without sunlight that too straight away for a period of 3-4 months!

"If you don't fit in the world out there, maybe here is your place." 🥺

Too bad I’ve learned about this place 30 years too late. I’m too old now, too unhealthy to go anywhere like this but I would have loved it for a while back when I could live and love and travel without the ties of approaching mortality. Beautiful place.

The Brazilian guy literally moved from southern edge of the world to the northern edge.. Must have been a crazy transition ^^

Svalbard is the only place in the world that is completely visa-free...

...except for MasterCard HQ.

"If you don't fit in the world out there, maybe here is your place" Ok, I'm coming, then :-)

The polar bear who wrecked that tent must've said, "get off my lawn!"

On arrival in Oslo, visitors will need to go through passport control. While Norwegian authorities do not require a visa for visiting Svalbard, as you will be transiting through Norway, nationals with visa requirements for Norway or the Schengen area will need a valid visa. No visa is required for EU passport holders.

I would like to visit this place someday after my master's degree

When he says if nature wants, nature keeps you inside your house. So true especially considering what we are living mow.

I had the privilege of meeting Chicco Mattos a few years ago when visiting Svalbard during the polar night. A very unassuming guy. He was working behind the bar at the Radisson Blu. We got talking about our mutual love photography and he turned out to be a fantastic videographer as well as a photographer. Top bloke with some mad skills.

Life, truly: “This is a real community and people check on each other.”
