Cozy Van Life & Disaster – Hunkering Down in Heavy Rain Storm & Heatwave – Fjord Camping Travel VLOG

Cozy Van Life Camping Hunkering Down in Heavy Rain & unusual Nordic heatwave in the Viking Fjords. A dramatic end to my journey😢
70 minutes of Relaxing, healing solitude in Norway’s wild summer storms & heatwave, fjords & off-grid van life. Rain, thunder, mountain roads, and heartbreak as my journey comes to an unexpected end.

🌧️ After surviving a summer blizzard snow storm with no winter gear (watch here if you missed it: https://youtu.be/4vTp23UiWLM), I continue my full-time van life journey — solo, off-grid and deep in the heart of Norway’s Viking fjords.

This time:
– A surprise heavy rainstorm drenches everything
– I hunker down in a rare Nordic heatwave
– My van breaks down in limp mode — and my summer journey must end

📍 From Troll-shaped peaks at Gaularfjellet to the mythical fjords of Balestrand and Sognefjord, across Vikafjellet and into the stunning Hardangerfjord — this is cinematic solo van life, filmed in stormy, moody, healing weather.

Expect:
☕ Cozy rain sounds & coffee in the van
🌧️ Hamburgers and storm-watching from my off-grid shelter
🗻 Snowy summer mountaintops
🚐 Breakdown & emotional solitude in my tiny cabin on wheels
🎥 Drone shots of fjords, glaciers, Viking landscapes & dramatic skies

Whether you’re here for cozy van life, heavy rain camping, healing solitude, or Viking fjord scenery, this peaceful 2-hour journey is for you.

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.
