I took this photo after about an hour of hiking from the buildings in the center of this photo, up on Platåfjellet mountain right next to town.

    Very cool, I’ve always wanted to visit Longyearbyen. How long did you stay and what all did you do?

      I stayed quite a while, and did as much as I can. :) I got a long-term place to stay and used it as a kind of workation. The bandwidth is great (5G), and there’s a good mix of heavy storms and awesome weather, so it’s good to stay a while to be able to wait for the good days. Some people visit for a week, and all they see is a blizzard and plane delays. But when it’s good, it’s excellent!
