HOW EXPENSIVE IS SVALBARD? | Cost of groceries and food in Longyearbyen Coop
For this week's vlog, we thought it would be helpful to take you around the biggest supermarket in Longyearbyen, Svalbard. Surprisingly, I found that Svalbard cost of living (at least the supermarket food prices) are not that expensive.
From produce prices, Svalbard alcohol and beer, to the bread and whale meat, Co-op Svalbard has it all. And even better, they have a locker to store your polar bear rifle if you need it!

Dare To Travel – 26-Year-Old Singaporean Living in the High Arctic in Svalbard, Norway
My family and friends thought I was crazy when I wanted to move up to the Arctic at 78° north.
Meet Wei Si, a spunky 26-year-old currently living in the Arctic Longyearbyen in Svalbard, Norway — the northernmost town in the world! Away from family and friends, she shares with us why she moved from tropical Singapore, and what it's like living in a town with more polar bears than people.

Solo Traveling in the Arctic: Svalbard
Svalbard is an Arctic archipelago in between Norway and the North Pole, and also the Northernmost inhabited place in the world! I got to go there for 5 freezing days where I did tons of awesome activities with Spitsbergen Travel like Ice Caving, Snowmobiling to a frozen waterfall, and even dogsledding!

???????? Svalbard REINDEER + FREE Bicycles = Longyearbyen World's NORTHERNMOST Town (NORWAY on a Budget)
The warmth of a Longyearbyen summer, during 24-hour daylight, brings out a herd of Svalbard reindeer to graze and prance through the village. This is what life is like in the world's northernmost town.
Even in Norway's High Arctic, surprisingly, there are bargains to be discovered and affordability for the budget traveler. The Svalbard tourist information center distributes free bicycle rentals and although the ride itself isn't special, it sure beats beating the pavement on foot.
When cycling in Svalbard in Norway Land of the Midnight Sun, Matt views a sunset over the town and other unique features in this remote northern village.
Magnificent Svalbard reindeer are observed in town as is the helicopter during an Arctic Search and Rescue. The village's school, greenhouse and an abandoned mine are also on display during this ride when, even on flat roads, a free bicycle presents its physical challenges.
And during some down periods, the role of the Svalbard Governor and his responsibilities are discussed in this tranquil town.

On the Spot: Svalbard (részlet)
Két digitális riporter, Cseke Eszter és S. Takács András beutazták a világot Gázától az Északi-sarkkörig, tudósítottak frontvonalról, földrengésről, elnyomásról és szabadságról. Néha elérhetetlennek hitt csúcspolitikusokkal beszélgettek, az ENSZ-főtitkártól Evo Morales bolíviai elnökig, de filmjeik középpontjában mindig a hétköznapi emberek történetei álltak. Forgattak gengszterekkel Johannesburgban, bemutatták a női körülmetélést Etiópiában, és olyan országokból is megrázó felvételeket hoztak haza, ahova újságírókként be sem tehették volna a lábukat...

Før gikk Bjarne rundt som en helt vanlig mann. Han tenkte ofte på hvordan han skulle måle seg med stål-gutta på kontoret. De som syklet milevis og løp på ski. Bjarne fikk liksom ikke tid til sånt. Eller lyst. Nå trenger han ikke tenke på det lenger. Han har nettopp vært på Svalbard.
