Blue Hot Springs

Today was one of my favorite days. It started off with driving to an amazing crater that was about forty minutes away from the guesthouse we are currently staying in. Despite the fact that it was very windy and raining, it was a pretty sight. After we were done exploring there, we all went out to lunch at a little restaurant and enjoyed well cooked meals. I had a nice latte that hit the spot an made me warmer from the cold. Then, we headed over to Jarðböðin Nature Baths. We spent an hour or so soaking in the milky, light blue waters and had a really great time. I'll never forget how the water looked because it was so beautiful. Overall, it was just an enjoyable day.

Develop an interest in life as you see it; the people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself.

Greetings from Iceland!

We all like a great adventure and I have started a new one of my own...traveling to Iceland! It is definitely a new setting than I am used to because I usually travel to warm places and here it's icy cold. Although, I enjoy the weather a lot. I love rain, so I was thankful when it began to pour recently at "night". I say night like that because it never really gets dark here...ever. The sun merely lowers and touches the horizon and then raises again shortly after. Surprisingly, it isn't as hard to fall asleep as I thought it would be before I got here. If anything, it's actually nice to have a change. 

So far, we start the days early and end them pretty late. Everyday holds a new experience though and that's what I love so much about being here. It is super beautiful here. The word beautiful doesn't even fully describe it because Iceland is absolutely breathtaking. I cannot wait for what amazing experiences the days to come hold.

Stay tuned for more updates!
