Follow us on our winter roadtrip through Iceland!
This one was truly a wild ride! We spent two weeks exploring Iceland in March, driving through raging blizzards, swimming in glacial water, and marveling at unfathomably blue ice. This trip allowed us to experience Iceland from many different perspectives - and made us hungry for more!

A big THANK YOU goes to everyone who supported us on this trip, especially Katarzyna Maria Dygul from Business Iceland, Bjarni Freyr and Pálína Georgsdóttir from ISAK 4x4 Rentals, Óskar Vignisson from Visit Vatnajökull, Guðný Lára Jónsdóttir from Atlantsflug, Helen María Björnsdóttir from Local Guide of Vatnajökull, the team of Blue Lagoon, and Alisa Silveira of BZ-COMM. Another thank you goes to Stephen Wright who captured some cool shots of us driving through a big puddle. And a very special thank you goes to Þórdís Pétursdóttir who helped us with the correct pronunciation of all Icelandic names (I may have gone overboard on Strokkur).
