Iceland


Iceland
One place I would to travel to would be Iceland. Despite what you may think it is not always snowy and cold. It is filled with beautiful natural scenery like waterfalls and black sand beaches. Iceland is the fourth happiest country in the world. If you go at the right time of the year you may see the northern lights. Iceland has over 200 volcanoes. They have about 800 hot springs. The water from this geothermal activity makes the average water a temperature of 167 degrees Fahrenheit so you do have to be careful when visiting a hot spring. Some of the largest tourist places in Iceland are The Blue Lagoon, Gullfoss Waterfalls, Jokulsarlon (Glacier Bay), Fjadrargljufur Canyon, Skaftafell Ice Caves, and there's plenty more! I love nature and being outdoors so I think this would be an amazing, relaxing vacation. Hopefully i’ll get there one day.

  1. I am now ready to purchase a ticket to Iceland! I am surprised that is the fourth happiest country in the world, most likely because I imagined it being freezing 24/7. Pictures say a thousand words and I'm glad you used them!

  2. Beautiful place! I used to hate winter landscapes because of Seasonal Affective Disorder, but now that I've learned that I just need Vitamin D to beat the blues, I actually find some of the most beautiful things to be made of ice and snow!
