Very creative choice of topic and the story is well crafted as the producer discusses the "Ice Hotel's" complete assault on the senses. It is easy to envision a feeling of calm & serenity even in the harsh environment.
The producer was very thorough and insightful by examining many subtle humanistic nuances of the "Ice Hotel". Sleeping on a bed of ice, the 'relative' warmth within the hotel, etc.
As a production tool, going directly into the story is a great way to quickly pull the listener into your story but, unless explained shortly thereafter, can leave the listener uneasy.
If you absolutely want to begin with the monologue, after setting the tone you can give your audience an introduction...what are they getting into for the next 30 minutes?
