"Sometimes you don't need to fall asleep to dream" Ryan Shirley. One of the few things I have heard on youtube that will be forever etched in my memory.

Sorry, but I have to tell you that Scandinavia consists of Norway, Sweden and Denmark. Iceland and Finland are not Scandinavian.

Uhm... Scandinavia is Norway, Denmark and Sweden. The nordics include Finland and Iceland

Scandinavia is indeed scenic and beautiful during Summer. The flora and fauna is amazing and the way local respect nature is unremarkable. Love you aerial clips, anyway. Thanks for this.

I really appreciate your videos. You are awesome. Thanks for doing what you do. You're showing us the rest of the world that we have yet to see. You are an essential service. Thanks again. You truly have a significant purpose.

Living in Scandinavia i just found out that i have so many places i have to visit - I enjoy watching your videos and your channel - Thanks from Denmark 🙏

some nights, you don’t need to sleep to start dreaming - this quote of yours hit me on a whole new level! a spiritual one!

Honestly a little sad you didn't visit Denmark as Scandinavia is only made up of Sweden, Norway and Denmark. Great video though, makes me proud to be Scandinavian :)

We spent a few weeks pet sitting in a tiny village just outside of Tromsø during Christmas. Scandinavia looks so beautiful in summer, but I highly recommend experiencing the Polar Night there. When it’s light out, the sun doesn’t come above the mountains, and everything is a magical blue colour. Never experienced anything like it!

Lapland is not only Northern Finland its northern Norway and Northern Sweden as well.

I am obsessed with great drone videos and I watch them on my iPad and my 55” TV. Your videos are the best. Great narration, titles onscreen, dramatic shots, concise without being too limited on good info. The hard work you do in editing is quite apparent, and results in a fantastic presentation that leaves no one yawning and waiting for the good parts. It’s all good. Absolutely amazing work. Keep it up.

Great footage! I've always wanted to explore the forests of Finland and visit Norway so now I'm even more inspired to follow this dream!

The prettiest video I’ve ever watched!!🤩😍

Going to Norway in August. Hope to get some cool vlogs there! And it is nice that you added Iceland and Faroe to the video. Would be cool to have Greenland as well 😋

Wow, the quality of this video is top-notch!!! I really enjoyed watching it!!!

This is gorgeous, thank you very much for taking the time to make this video. I crave an european tour so much! ♡

I'm so glad you included Senja. My family is originally from there, and i really wanna move there. My last name is even the same as a small settlement where my grandfather is from. Really underrated place, and i really recommend visiting it.

Ive been in Lofoten last week,And going back next year for hiking.thank you for sharing this Video.

Visiting Iceland was amazing - I haven’t been to the other Skandinavien countries - but now I so so want to go 😍😍 this video is amazing- you really have the best drone shots I’ve ever seen 👍🏻

oh wow! amazing video! Ultimate travel dream. 😍😍😍

I used to live in Norway when I was young and I really love the people and the country. I also visited Iceland last year and it was amazing!!

you're so lucky to visit those places

That was an awesome view. A wonderful capture of the beautiful scenery. Always the best view from the Top. Have a great day my friend. 🌟

love your videos a lot and these places go straight to my bucket list, so beautiful

Great content. Maybe I will visit Norway next year

this is probably to most beautiful video ive ever seen

Norge mitt Norge, mitt ubeskrivelig vakre hjemland ❤️ Awesome videos Ryan, keep up the goid work ^^

This was a sick, awesome video. Good job!

Sick video❤️ I live in Norway and have a cabin near Preikestolen, so I’ve been there often. It’s truley awesome.

The Nordics are a fantastic region, especially when it comes to landscapes - the vast forests and lakes of Finland, the dramatic rock formations of Norway or the lovely waterways of Sweden. What I liked most (although I am far from having seen most of the countries) is Korouoma (a national park in Finland), Tromsø with the northernmost botanic garden in the world, Sommarøy (a little island west of Tromsø, which can be reached via the island Kvaløya), Kilpisjärvi (a lake close to the point where Finland, Norway and Sweden meet), Aavasaksa (a mountain a bit south of the Arctic Circle in Finland) and Levy (a village and a mountain within the Arctic circle in Finland), Dalsland (with the towns Ed and Mellerud) in Sweden. It's a pity that we couldn't enjoy Senja fully due to bad weather. We would have had to wait for at least a week until it would clear up.

This was great to watch. Time flew by cuz it was so interesting. Thank you!

Amazing video Ryan loved all it

Dude, awesome video man. I'm definitely tempted by the Faroe Islands and Norway. Did you spend much money in Norway and Iceland? Is that a Mavic 2 Pro drone you have as well footage is sick?

Awesome shots and I definitely can understand your enthusiasm for these beautiful landscapes. But I need to talk for a moment about the flipside of the coin. I also loved exploring Norway and Sweden but there was one reason why I never hiked Trolltunga or other places mentioned in this video - These places are totally overcrowded by tourists who are there in order to capture there own "unique" photo or video of this place (a shot which for sure already exists thousands of times on Instagram, KZfaq, etc.). Even if I absolutely can recommend visiting these Scandinavian countries I just need to admit that the most beautiful and also a bit more unique way to explore them is by hiking into their nationalparks for some days in a row and experience places like in that video just without these masses of tourists around you who just ride the car the whole time in order to stand on a prebuilt platform and missing so much on the untouched wild country. Just respect nature, don't mess around with the animals and don't leave any trash and you will experience Scandinavia in a totally other and at least in my opinion also in a better way than just visiting just the same overcrowded Instagram locations all the time.

Amazing dude, just awesome! I live in New Zealand and I'm blown away by that footage! Bucket list for sure.

This video was so beautiful!! Thank you for sharing!

If you want to see paradise go to northern Norway! It`s insane how beautiful it is😍

Great Video Ryan. Brings back good memories and also adds a couple of destinations to my "To Visit" list.

Great video, and such impressive photography! I'm impressed how much you fit into such a short video

My favourite place in Scandinavia? My couch! 😁

I feel in love to Scandinavia

my favorite? nah, man, I can't pick a favorite. All of the places you showed were stunning! Great video quality too! Props to this channel.

Amazing videos. We went to Norway last year. Feels so weird right now because I am not even allowed to travel more than 5 km from my house. My favourite spots were Geirangerfjord and the Trollstiggen. Eidfjord was also very peaceful.

Great video. Sweden looks good to visit.

Love the vid! Can you post what drone you use again? I want to get the same one!

As a finn who loves to drive in Norway and have traveled it all over, I must say this is pretty good video!

I have only been to Iceland and I was so mesmerised by the beautiful landscapes!

Iceland and Finland are only part of the Nordics, NOT Scandinavia. That's only NORWAY, SWEDEN, and DENMARK!

I should say Denmark and Sweden always underrated in this list. Sweden have Österlen, Halland, Gotland, Abisko, Höga kusten, Västkusten, Sarek. Much of White sand beach around whole Swedish Coast. Sweden also have Northern Light and Midnight sun. Vänern and Vättern many big lakes also.

Everyone looks so happy in these videos.

one of the most inspiring video I've seen, Thank for sharing

Nice video, But a little harsh on Denmark, They have such beautiful places to see, especially when you included finland the non scandi country

I was planning to drive from Latvia to Ballstad (Norway) this summer in July, but sadly covid happend :( Hoping to go next year!

Ryan, man like this video I hv ever seen it before...it's sooo beautiful and peaceful....nd ur all videos are marvelous ❤️...I like it soo much ❣️

As a fellow content creator I really appreciate your work. Keep on providing awesome videos! 👍

As a Dane i fell left out. There is some great locations in Denmark as well. Still a beatifull video❤️

Scandinavia is only Danmark, Sweden and Norway, not Finland and Iceland. Those five countrys are called the Nordic Countrys or The Nordics

Watching the dawn and sunrise on Pulpit mountains- thanks for the inspiration Ryan, awesome videos.

Great vid Ryan!

Great video! However visit Helsinki in the summer instead of christmas. Helsinki really is a summer city with great outdoor life, food and festivals during the summer.

I haven't met the that happy Finn yet. But he/she must live somewhere out there.

Great love in front of everything beautiful that can be found in Scandinavia. Very Well Done Camera Work. Like a surgical straight from the Soul Landscape. The "Oscar" should be given.

wow ... These places are amazingly beautiful .. I've to visit asap ... ty for sharing

You should visit southern Sweden and Denmark. They are very different to the northern landscapes. The Islands of Gotland, Öland and Bornholm (Danish) are definitely worth a visit! In my home county Skåne you have beautiful dramatic landscapes in the northern part of Höganäs and Söderåsen. The costal towns of Österlen are beautiful with some of the most perfect white sandy beaches that look almost tropical.

Fantastic footages! But remember that many thourists are being rescued down from the mountains every year. These operations are expensive and dangerous. If you do not know how to prepare a hard and steep hike in rough nature, the mountains in Norway is not for you!

As a Scandinavian, I love this video. We really do have a lot of gorgeous nature 🌟

I love your videos, greetings from South Beach, Fl

Is it only me who get realy proud when people outside norway know we exsits😂

Great Content-Inspired by you

@Ryan Shirley Thank you for uploading this video. I could sit in India and take in the splendour of Scandinavia! The Aurora Borealis was a treat. Be well.

Absolutely stunning..... all of them! Greetings from Portugal.

As a dane I am not surprised that Denmark didn't make the list since northern scandinavia is amazing. However we do have beautiful beaches (for instance in northwest zealand). And don't miss Møns Klint if you make it here!

Although I see this has been mentioned to no end, I just have to say it. As a norwegian I do not like seeing Denmark being left out in a video about scandinavia. You've also included two non-scandinavian countries. O_O It's a nice video in many ways, but you should probably do a little bit more research on the parts of the world you travel to if you're going to make videos about them. It's especially jarring when the rest of your video is so great!

Love your channel jeep it coming.

great video and scandinavia is unique region .its one of my biggest dreams to visit at least some of the places/countries there like norway, iceland and lapland too and also the cities like copenhagen stokholm.and faroe islands are great too

You should look up jonna jinton she lives in northern Sweden n shows how beautiful it is

These are my favorite countries: Norway, Sweden, and Denmark(Scandinavian countries)

A colleague of mine went to "the Pulpit" this summer... There was misty fog clouds below, blue skies above, the fjord (in between the clouds) was perfectly still, like a mirror... It looked like the mountains were just floating in the sky! 🤩 I'm so jealous 🤣

It’s back!! 😍♥️

So far, Preikestolen is my favorite place. I want to go and see lots more of the Nordics though. Senja and Lofoten are definately on my list!

Finland is not part of Scandinavia. Scandinavia is Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. Finland, along with these three and Iceland, makes up the Nordic nations.

Breathtaking views and thanks for sharing.

Was in Eastern Finland a year ago now and I'm DYING to go back

He said that football thing so many times that even if someone asked me that in my sleep I'd be able to tell that.

My favourite place in Scandinavia is Scandinavia😂✌️

Thanks for sharing such an awesome video!!! 😍😍😍 God bless!

Wow. This is absolutely beautiful. I don’t know if I get a chance to go there one day but at least I know there are still a lot of beautiful places in this world. Watching from Thailand:)

While Ireland isn’t in Scandinavia, it’s pretty near by and worth visiting when travelling returns to normal. Quite like Scotland, yet slightly less dramatic inland, it’s even greener and has some amazing cliffs and costal formations to the west. Dublin is beautiful full of old red brick buildings and attractions and towns like Galway are great cultural hotspots. The turbulent history of the north is tragic yet fascinating and with Viking and norman settlements everywhere, it has so much history, great cities and towns and some beautiful countryside.

Sweden maybe hasn't got those magnificent mountains as Norway and Iceland, instead, we're known for our coastlines. For example, you should visit Höga kusten (the high coast outside of Härnösand), Stockholm's archipelago (yeah, I know Stockholm city is made up by islands but we Swedes don't really consider it to be the archipelago, we mean the thousands of islands you can visit outside of it), Österlen (known for amazing beaches and it's apple must farms) and of course västkusten (the west coast with small fishing villages like Smögen and Lysekil).

Your video is so adventures more beautiful and great informative I'm lucky so watch beautiful places of the world

Thank you so much for this inspiration :)

I think everything you talked about was amazing. One thing in Sweden i would like to give more attention to is "Sarek national park". More wilderness than that you don't get in Europe. You can hike for days, weeks even without seeing anyone else. Google "rapa valley". Most beautiful place I ever saw.

"Lapland looks like straight out of a Disney movie"... because it is, have you not seen Frozen?

You should visit the west coast of Sweden in the summer. Go on a roadtrip from Oslo to Copenhagen or take the train. You will find many beautiful and nice places, cities, beaches along the coasts roads.

Beautiful photos! Lovely to hear that you enjoy the north so much! One more point to make is that Lapland also is in Sweden and is actually Sapmi which is the Indigenous Sami folks land in the north of Sweden, Norway, Finland and Russia. The so called Santa Claus is in actuallitie a seberian or Sami Shaman. Earth is a beautifull place. peace to you all

"In English usage, Scandinavia also sometimes refers more narrowly to the Scandinavian Peninsula, or more broadly so as to include the Åland Islands, the Faroe Islands, Finland and Iceland." by Wikipedia

Really interesting that people here are debating about the definition of scandinavia- while not commenting the actual video, -wich is stunning. I'm from Finland and I learnt in school that we belong to Scandinavia, ask any finn, I believe you get the same answer. So, the debate here is Finland part of scandinavia was a bit surprizing :D ...well, then I laugh and I thought next you probably think we have icebears. Think and believe what you want, peace and love.

Great work, stunning cinematography
