Living in a Van Through Arctic Storms – My Biggest Lessons

Living full-time in my van in Arctic Norway sounded like a dream – until the storms came. In this 8-day journey through the Lofoten and Vesterålen Islands, I face extreme weather, breathtaking scenery, and the realities of van life. From escaping powerful storms to finding moments of calm in remote locations, here’s what really happens when you leave home for the road.
🚐 Watch to see the highs, lows, and everything in between – and decide if you could handle it.

Experience the beauty of Arctic Norway, van life, and Northern Lights adventures with Alex from Arctic North Adventures.
