I watch A LOT of travel videos and what sets World Towning apart imho from all the rest is that you share the everyday life of full time traveling in addition to scenes from places many just dream about. Just about all the others out there are formula based vlogs. Oh I like those though you all make it real. Makes us feel a small part of your family (adopt me please!!). Now on with the rest of the show...

@WorldTowning 4 жыл бұрын

Awh, thanks Tommye, you got us to a T. I love all the travel vlogs out there as well! Our WorldTowning way is to keep it real, living and exploring the world one hometown at a time. We love to integrate with local cultures so much and we also like to show the truth. The only way we can help other future WTers and those who are sofa travelers is to share it as it is. I wish we had the hours in the day to be daily all the time. Thanks for your compliments and kind words. Love you second to last sentence, YES, we want you to feel as you are part of our family...we feel the same way.

Thanks so much for all the work that goes into these. I binged a bunch of your latest videos and it was so much fun. You guys are such a darling family. Thanks for being so honest about the highs and lows of travel (esp as a family). Even if we don’t fully World town just yet, you’re reminding us of the core values of traveling with curiosity, spontaneity and love. 💕

Thanks Hillary. We all put our heart into them, but Will...he puts everything he has into them. We are so proud of his commitment to telling the true story, talent and hard work. So glad our vlogs have been helpful. We could not do this vlog if we were not honest, it is the only way to get more people out here as well as let those who cannot or do not want to travel see it in the real. Thanks for watching and for the binge!

@pwyngaard 4 жыл бұрын

Do they have Rain-X or a similar product in Norway? It's a completely clear and translucent product you rub into your windshield and it makes water bead up into tiny bubbles and fly off the windshield. Some people never use their windshield wipers because Rain-X works so well.

@Ladygirl1211 4 жыл бұрын

I've used Rain-X and you're right. It works great as you say.

We have not been able to find any in these rural areas, but if we see a place to buy it we will definitely stop. Thanks!

@peterwyngaard8672 4 жыл бұрын

They also make windshield washer fluid with something like rain-x in it. I don’t think it works as well as rain-x, but it does an ok job. Whereas normal windshield washer fluid is blue, in the US the stuff with the rain shedding additive is purple.

If you drive to Bergen there will be no problem fixing the wiper. It's just 5 hours from Nigardsbreen, and it's actually supposed to be sunny this weekend (which is rare). If you call today they might have spare parts already, during the day og atleast on monday, but then you get to experience Bergen in sun. Call this company and ask for Bjørn www.edv.no/kontakt-oss/

For the mechanic, I have no contact in Norway, but in Denmark, in Aalborg, I can connect you with some who won't make you pay a fortune. I don't think you have problem with the engine, I believe he ment the motor for the windshield wiper. The engine as far as I know has nothing to do with moving the wipers. It is driven by an electric motor, and very likely that is what gave up.

@WorldTowning 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks for your help, but we did find a mechanic in Copenhagen who can do it in a day and has the necessary parts so we are going to stick with them.

@@WorldTowning sure, no problem, just in case you are in an urgent situation. Copenhagen is around 1000 km from the place this video was taken. If you need the aalborg service let me know a few days in advance.

@gene8194 4 жыл бұрын

@@suleymanalantug4772 thanks for supporting my thesis :) If it is the electric motor it shouldn't be an expensive service, though mechanics in Norway are ridiculously expensive. So I believe the work will cost more than the motor it self. Unfortunately it will be similar price in Copenhagen. I would say at least 100-150 Euros equivalent for the job plus the motor.

If they order it before 12 or so, it will arrive around a couple of hours later 😃 And there are lots of mecanics in the middle of the citys, so lots of stuff to kill time with 😊 BTW, i dont get paid for saying this 😅
