Every 10 days or so we find a hotel, to take a small break from the camper van. The funny thing is that by now I actually sleep much better in our van, but I […]

One of the amazing things in Iceland is how much water exists and how important it is. It shapes the country through rivers, rain and floods, in frozen form it forms Europe’s biggest glaciers and […]

The Vestmannaeyjar islands have a special history. For once, the youngest island was born in the 1960s, due to a 5(!) year volcanic eruption. The main town on the main island got buried under lava and ash in 1973. So this made for an interesting target.

After our off-roading and hiking experience in the interior, we moved on to south Iceland. There’s so much to see and do in this part of the country that we took a few days to […]

We’ve been in Iceland for just under 3 weeks and have done a few hikes so far. We need to be realistic of what we can do with Liam, but we’ve come prepared with a child-carry backpack so that when the hike gets too long for Liam, Kai will carry all 20 kilos of him (plus clothes and backpack!).
