    Beautiful! A land with endles light and endless darkness.

    This is an amazing video as it depicts this young woman's life in mid-north Sweden where--at times--the sun does not set nor rise.

    Grab a cup of coffee and enjoy this.

    That is a great video. Looks like it took a lot of effort to make.

    I spent a few months in Iceland in the '80s. It was Summer, and the sun would go down toward the horizon for a while each day/night, but then start back up again. It was weird.

    I don't think I could deal with that.

    So different from what we're used to. The young woman who made the video seems to look on the bright side, and to be sure, it is stunningly beautiful there, but still...

    I'm just wondering what that water temperature was that she was diving into.

    People are pretty adaptable, and it all depends on what you're used to. In Iceland people would be out sunbathing if the temperature got up into the mid-50s.

    That's Jonna Jinton.

    She's pretty awesome. She has a great Youtube channel.

    A great first officer but an even better second course.
