On this episode, we make our first stop on our 6 month trip around the world: Iceland. Located east of Greenland and west of Europe, Iceland is a sparse and unique island in the Northern Atlantic Ocean with a population of approximately 320,000 people. Of this, approximately 200,000 people live in Iceland’s capital city, Reykjavik, which is actually the northern most capital city in the world. Iceland is one of the most desolate countries in the world, with a unique culture, and some of the world’s most incredible landscapes.
Join us on our 3 day adventure in Iceland, as we celebrate Iceland National Day, explore some of Iceland’s most amazing landscapes, meet new friends, and eat a few of Iceland’s most popular foods (mostly hotdogs).
Enjoy!
