Actually my dream trip is the 10 day lap of Iceland, so yes, 1000% I will. Also, saved for future reference 😊

This restaurant is single handedly responsible for completely 180ing my attitudes on seafood. It broke me lmfao. I'm so thankful I was brought there.

Roughly how much did the 10-day trip cost?

I did my Master's on a site in the region a decade ago. Suppose it depends on what you want.

Haha that's dangerous news - I am already a passionate seafood fan but alas, live in the dry lands.

Another comment you said you did your Master's there. Can I ask if you enjoyed the experience? I've wondered about doing a European masters but Iceland had never crossed my mind until today

Do it. Dm me. I'm currently in an airport but will yap when I can. I actually did the program in Scotland but my study site was in Iceland. I think I did apply to Iceland though. I took Icelandic in college. :] It's a cool place.

I live in Ísafjörður, this is the only place where I will eat fish by choice, well, this place and if me or my dad cook it.

Blessuð! Já, I believe it. One day I'll be back. :)

We did a week and did day tours. Not as adventurous but still a blast. Definitely want to go again and drive the golden circle!
