Icelandic Adventures

The Land of Ice awaits my arrival. Or so, I hope. I have dreamt of this for a long time. I'm so beyond excited to explore, yet another country. In just 11 short days, I will be getting on the plane, to depart for Iceland. I have so many things on my list that I would love to see, but so little time. With only 7 full days there, I'm torn to have to pick and choose which places I will have to miss this time.
This trip is filled with exciting activities I've never done. I will be talking about each activity in a separate post after I experience it. Iceland offers some of the most spectacular sceneries: endless waterfalls, volcanos, icebergs, farm houses, natural lagoons/hot-springs, ice caves just to name a few. 
I’m also excited for the weather change. To wear a jacket, and gloves and a hat. Living in Florida for the passed 10 months made me really appreciate a little bit of that crisp air. I have been wearing nothing but dresses, so I’m excited for some layers (said no one ever, but me). 
This will actually be my first trip to a different county with weather colder than where I live. I have always traveled to more tropical destinations or during summer to places that typically get colder. I have done plenty of winter traveling in the states, where I just go to one city and I'm not hopping around, so overpacking didn't effect me during those trips. However when I go out of the country, I prefer to travel light, which allows me to be more flexible about moving air bnb's/ hotels and having a different "home" for the night. So it will be interesting to see how my packing will go. I’m still hoping to try to go with just a backpack, and I’m planning on “test packing” sometimes this week. After trekking Europe with 50 pounds on my back, I’ve learned quickly that I don't want to be doing that, unless someone else is carrying my bag. If I succeed, I will post a blog on what I’m packing for this trip. Fingers crossed.
Stay tuned for my Icelandic Adventures <3

The South Coast of Iceland

Iceland! The land of so much more than ice. Volcanoes, canyons, countless waterfalls and wind that will blow you away, literally. Although the ice was practically non-existent, or at least the parts of the country that I encountered. The one place we did find ice it was absolutely, without a doubt, my favorite part of the trip. Never have I ever seen that kind of beauty. It’s a different kind of beauty than, say Bali (which is definitely my favorite place on earth), yet it was magical. The views were absolutely stunning. Something that didn’t even make sense to me was these huge blocks of ice we saw. They have been there for hundreds of years, and have never melted away. However, it’s not freezing and there is no snow. The water isn’t frozen! I’m so curious about how and why this is even possible? The ice was literally blue! So unreal.   Follow me on instagram for more images  @laasbella Stop number one: Diamond Beach Stop number two: Glacier Lagoon Diamond ...
