I don't remember the first time I saw a photo of Iceland. I know it was of the Northern Lights on a starry night with snow covered mountains in the background. I knew I had get there but, for years, I kept putting it off. And, in that time, my expectations for Iceland became very high. The friendly locals, untouched mountains, Northern Lights, being alone with nature - I built it all up in my head.
And, now that I am here, I can safely say Iceland has exceeded my expectations beyond my wildest dreams.
There are places you love and then there are places you carry inside forever. Places that change you. They are, in Hemingway's words,"a moveable feast". For me, Iceland is one of those places. I knew it from the first moment I got here. From the warm locals to the untouched landscape to magic of the Northern Lights, Iceland has changed me. It's made me remember the need to slow down.
