Iceland 1/2





Iceland was not the most appealing destination for me. I love to visit places were I can find a mix between nice cities, archaeology, nice beaches and good food. Furthermore, I was convinced that there is no natural beauty that can match the Chilean and Argentinean Patagonia.

For all those reasons Iceland was not on my bucket list. How wrong I was. Having the opportunity to see a geologically "young" island was a real delight. The landscape was striking and dramatic and the continuous change of the scenery was thrilling. Hot water waterfalls, "marbled" icebergs with black ashes, waterfalls that do not touch the ground because the wind is so strong that it fades away and a big etcetera.

We spent two weeks road tripping around the island in the most beautiful nature I have ever seen.
