Wanderlust: Iceland

Boston has experienced a serious heatwave as of late. You Louisianians may laugh, and I’ll give you that it is MUCH hotter in LA. But a few weeks ago the weather in Boston hovered around 60°-70° and lately it has been in the 90s.  While I will probably feel much differently come February, right now I am dreaming of visiting somewhere cool.

Not Polar Bear Club cold, but in the 50s  and 60s.  You know where fits that range perfectly?  Iceland.  “Iceland??” you might ask. “WTF!?”  But hear me out.  Actually better yet, hear Iceland out.  To boost tourism they have started a campaign called Inspired By Iceland.  Check this out, but before you do, I should warn you to suffer through the ridic girl at the beginning – I think she is the exception not the rule.

How awesome does that look?  I love the wide-range of scenes and activities, from swimming to the geyser (is that a geyser?) to the beautiful terrain.  If you visit the webpage:  Inspired By Iceland you’ll find things to do, a place to book flights, and more videos made by Icelanders.  BONUS:  in the summer, the sun rarely sets. 

If you still are not convinced, check out the following photographs:

It looks unreal it is so beautiful!

The pool at the Blue Lagoon Geothermal Resort, yet ANOTHER reason we should visit Iceland.

Who is with me?  Anyone, anyone, Bueller?  Would you go to Iceland?  What did you think of the video?  Let’s chat.
