Hey Everyone,
Welcome back to a new video where I'm sharing the beauty of the wild nature of the island of Andøya in Northern Norway. This is a place where I try to live a life inspired by nature. Right now, during these summer days in July, it looks like a true paradise. Everything is in full bloom, the forests are deep green, and wildflowers are growing everywhere. The sun is still up late in the evening. And since we're located above the Arctic Circle, the sun doesn't set at all right now. Since the winters here are long, we want to enjoy every moment of this season.
In this video, I’ll take you with me at the beginning of July when I started to create firewood for the winter, and when my mother came and visited us. In the meanwhile, we are working on the living room, and making Pulled Pork in the Dutch Oven.
Have a Great week,


Lots of love from the North

Carmijn

Under her artist name Red Leaf Hill, Carmijn Bakker creates a language of warmth and affection, with songs that address human relationships, nature, motherhood, overcoming and wanderlust.
Her music applies a range of influences: the intimacy of alternative country/folk laced with widescreen splendor of contemporary pop.

As a musician, songwriter, and filmmaker, Carmijn has held a long-cherished dream of living in the heart of nature. “For me nature is magical. It's healing and creates a feeling of total freedom. A feeling of peace. When I’m surrounded by big mountains and long rivers, I feel free. The sunlight on my skin, swimming in the cold water. When I close my eyes, words and melodies arise. “

In the spring of 2022, she moved with her partner and son from her native Netherlands to the North of Norway. Between tall mountains, long rivers, and endless forests, she quickly learned living in nature is both hard work and awe-inspiring.

For Carmijn, Red Leaf Hill is as much about sharing as it is expressing, through her own means and by seeking out collaborators who travel a similar wavelength. On her YouTube channel, she’s garnered a steady following in her journeys across the Norwegian wilderness. To be an open book, where struggle, joy, fear, and courage are laid bare for all to see. As clear even as the brightest skies themselves. to my YouTube Channel! My name is Carmijn and my artist name is Red Leaf Hill. One year ago I moved together with my family to the North Norwegian countryside to start a life close to nature.r of our entry which turned out into a warm and cosy place
