Travel, eat, repeat.
Why is everyone complaining about 2016? I mean sure this year had its ups and downs – I lost my job, was homeless and had no visa for quite some time – but all in all this year turned out to be one of the best yet. Losing my job and starting over at Booking.com was […]
Sure, glacier hiking and snorkeling are must do Icelandic activities, but no one goes to Iceland without visiting the hot springs and lagoons. From the most famous to the most authentic, I’ve got the three best hot springs and lagoons along the Golden Circle. Let me preface this by saying I was enjoying the lagoons […]
Going to Iceland without going glacier hiking is like going to Cancún without going to the beach – you’ve just gotta do it!
