Thanks for the clarification, Beck! Will be editing on my blog, too.

Geysir only goes off after earthquakes, and the last one was something like 10-20 years ago. This is important to clarify for people visiting Iceland, so they don’t make the same mistake my group did of waiting for Geysir to go off for an hour because we all read so much online of people seeing Geysir!

I get nostalgic for my experience there. It was such a wonderful country!!

There are only around 300,000 Icelandic people. When you’re traveling around the country, 1 in 3 people you meet are other travelers. That means if you hitch-hike, chances are you’ll probably just get picked up by another traveler like Fabrice and I picked up Valentina

When I go back to Iceland, I’m definitely going to camp and hitch-hike like the other travelers I met were doing. Road-tripping and staying in hostels was awesome, but it’s so safe and inexpensive to camp and hitch-hike. Such an adventure, too!
