Day 11 - Hveragerði
Today I hung around Hveragerði some more. I walked around the geothermal area and took a little hike up the river running through town. Since it's been pretty slow today, i'll talk about some things that haven't really fit in anywhere.... Light - ...
First Day on the Road - Snæfellsnes Peninsula
After having our wonderful first two days staying in Reykjavik and a great South Iceland Private Tour opportunity, today was the day we were looking to break out to the wild expanses of Iceland on our own - today marked the first day of our self-guided ...
Glacial Lake
This and the last blog are not to be missed...be prepared for EXTREME beauty!!! We woke up at 6am, continued on our drive for about an hour and then we were there...at the breathtaking views of the Glacial Lake and we were able to see Glaciers and ...
Searching for Bobby Fischer
During the excursion (see previous entry), I asked the guide if she knew anything about Robert Fischer and his whereabouts in Iceland. Sure enough, like seemingly every Icelander, she knew quite a lot. In particular she told us what his ...
Leaving home for autumn break
After a sweaty session of badminton and an unusually busy day at the Adult Education Centre, where I was working, and just an overall hectic day, my brother came to pick me up at home right after shower and then we drove to Reykjavík. I also had to stop ...

... The plan was then to head back stopping at all of the main landmarks along the way. It was great fun to drive in Iceland - the country has a tiny population still so you have empty roads, no stressed drivers - you could almost pretend you're in a car ...
Það er komið að því....
Jæja, þá er loksins komið að því!!! Ferðin okkar til Suð-Austur Asíu er að hefjast á eftir, en fyrsta flug er seint í kvöld. Ferðaplanið okkar er þannig að við ætlum að fljúga fyrst til Thailands, reyndar með smá ...
Day 9 - Laugavegurinn Trail to Landmannalaugar
This morning, I got all my stuff packed up and headed back to Landmannalaugar. It was a pretty anticlimactic journey, cause I´d already seen when whole route and I was feelind disappointed at myself for not doing the hike (though I definitely still ...
Eastern Fjords
We drove to Hofn along the fjords in the east. Very interesting because I've never seen fjords, and we drove in and out of each inlet. The first couple had small towns, so we assumed the rest would be the same, but as we rounded each coastline, ...
