Video: Our trip to Iceland

Thanks to everyone for all of the tips and words of encouragement following our big announcement last week! Here and here in case you missed it ;). 

You may have noticed a few updates on this little blog of ours to prepare for all of our big changes and travel plans coming up, too. 

But today, after many nights of hard work from Christian, I am happy to share this amazing video Christian created from our Icelandic road trip! 

Starring Christian, our favorite travel buddies Denis and Emma and yours truly, this movie was shot with our fancy-schmancy Go Pro camera (highly recommended).

We will most definitely be shooting Go Pro footage all over Asia, too.

Enjoy!

Icelandic Roadtrip Part 3

Icelandic Roadtrip Part 2

It was great to see Reykjavik and party with the Icelanders until the wee morning hours, but the best thing about Iceland is the nature--hands-down. We made so many stops on the side of the road to photograph rivers, horses and landscapes. And the scenery in Iceland changes dramatically even just 20 km away! 

 Denis, Emma and Christian really took over with planning the Iceland itinerary. So much so that I really had no idea where we were going or what we would see at all. I'll always be grateful for Denis for recommending that we visit Mljet on our trip to Croatia last year--I'm pretty sure it's the most beautiful place I've ever seen!

Well Denis and Emma to the rescue again...my favorite few days in Iceland were spent on the Eastern Fjords on the east coast of Iceland. Emma found us some cottages right on the water, with a magnificent fjord view, a boat turned into a jacuzzi and little baby lambs running around the property :). Emma and I even got to feed them! 

This cottage was the perfect spot for us to daytrip around the fjords, drive through snowy mountain passes and visit tiny towns at the root of huge waterfall-covered fjords. And ofcourse, who would be opposed to the fact that there was a jacuzzi boat and baby lambs waiting for you at home? ;)
