Thank you so much for joining us in Reykjavik (which I know I (Claire) pronounced wrong in the video 😭) as we ate our way around the city. 🥰 You all are in for a fantastic treat- this Iceland series might just be one of our best ones yet. If you follow us on Patreon and Instagram, you would already know that we chose to return to VAN LIFE (!!!!!) for a whole week, as we explored the majestic Icelandic countryside. Stay tuned for an exciting series of wholesome videos, showcasing the incomparable beauty of Iceland. 😁🇮🇸 “Bless bless” until the next one, Claire (and Chad) 🤍
haha I was very happy with her eating the shark ! :) I was raised eating shark so i love it , but not so much the brennivín.. But you will often find the "hard fish" and shark on the same table and both are very good, I eat 1-2kg's of "hard fish" every month
Great food tour! France and Italy are some of my favourite place on Earth but Iceland 🇮🇸 is my happy place! No other places on Earth can compare to Iceland!I hope you will love it as much as we do! Have a fabulous time! Sabrina🇫🇷🇬🇧
Wow your narration and commentary on the various dishes is great! As well as the video shots and information about the various foods you edited into the video. Really great, and your speaking voice is really enjoyable!
I was lucky to visit Kamakura in 2012 and I had a beautiful stay in a traditional Ryokan...the first day was very rainy but the following morning was clear an sunny and snow covered Mt Fuji was visible over the Atami bay...loved that place and love Japan ❤❤❤
Chad and Claire, your Icelandic video was superb! The photographic shots did not go unnoticed. The food tour of Reykjavík was outstanding. I thought the food of France, Turkey, Greece,and Italy could not be surpassed, but I was wrong. The Icelandic food just wanted one to buy a ticket to Iceland. I had never seen you devour any food as you devoured the Icelandic hot dogs! Thank you for educating me on the niceties of Iceland!
You guys should have a travel and food show. Very enjoyable to watch. Reminds me of the way Anthony Bourdain used to take us on a trip with him. Well done!
First time watching this video, wish I could’ve seen this before I went to Iceland in July 2024. I stuck to the traditional Icelandic soup/stew with lamb from Reykjavik Street Food…very hearty. Also has the famous “hot dogs” just about every day. I also bought the sheep Christmas ornament. BTW, you are beautiful.
Omg, I need to go here and try all the foods. This made me so hungry! great work on the vlog, definitely will be supporting ya. I just uploaded a food tour on my channel too!!
Just checked out your food tour! Man those corn dogs looked incredible. Can't believe we've never tried Korean corndogs! Keep up the great work! Really enjoy how comfortable you seem in front of the camera.
You two are adorable, and I can't believe I have not seen your channel before now! We're headed to Reykjavik this summer, and I want to try everything you did! Thanks for sharing your experience.
Found your channel when I was looking for a Reykjavik food tour. We love Iceland and have been to most of the scenic spots. We decided our next 2 days stopover will concentrate at Reykjavik, and will try a food tour. We are empty nesters reseaching itineraries to travel the world. You are very informative. Keep up the good work.
I love your voice! You were more brave than us with the fermented shark. Also, the drone work was spectacular! We just visited on Sept and are already planning our “2.0” trip. Looking forward to following you two. everywhere! Thank you!
Loved seeing the different foods, we are planning an Iceland stop over in May next year. So looking forward to seeing further video’s from your tour. I have to tell you, I fast forwarded your church tour as I want to experience it for myself when we go, and the inside be a total surprise. Sorry. 😊
Yes! Glad you didn't let us ruin the surprise! I still can't believe there were thousands of trolls inside the church... (jk) You're gonna have a great stopover! So much to do there!
Fantastic video and I was very surprised at the cost of your lamb shank and combo plate as part of your first Rekjavik meal. I've always had the opinion that Iceland was expensive but those meal prices are pretty much on a par with what I would pay here in Perth, Australia. 😳
this is such a lovely video! gave me ideas on where to go and where to eat when i go next month, even the things that didn't give me much appeal at this.
cool that you got some prince polo, it has some history in iceland, its been imported from poland for decades and is one of the most popular candies in iceland, even more popular than it ever was in poland. it has had á great cultural signifigance, highly recomend listening to an artist who adopted the icelandic spelling prins póló as his artist name, unfortunetly he passed away earlier this week and it is a great loss, he was one of the greatest artists we ever had. hopefully you enjoyed beautiful views and fantastic smiles while in iceland c:
Great video, as always. James and I did Iceland a few years ago, and drove what we called the 'Citroën from hell' around the entire island for 8 days, staying at guest houses and hotels along the way. With the price of meals there, we lived on bacon wrapped pysler often, but didn't have the nerve to try the fermented shark. You two rock! Peace Steve and James from PA
Haha the Citroën from hell sure has an interesting ring to it! Pysler wrapped with Bacon!!!!! What could be better! Honestly navigating the extreme prices of Iceland is part of the fun.
You did a much better job at pronouncing things than I ever would have. 🙃 It's nice that you guys put in so much effort to try and learn and say things the right way! My girlfriend and I also went to Cafe Loki while we were there. It was so dang good. That lamb was incredible...and like you said, that rye bread was something special. Surprisingly sweet. Not like any rye bread I'd ever had, that's for sure. It was funny to see your reaction to eating hákarl because everyone always makes it out to be this big thing! I thought it was totally fine as well, and the Brennivin was quite smooth. But I also like stinky tofu, durian and other flavors that a lot of others tend to find "offensive". 😂 Icelandic food was actually surprisingly good. The ONLY thing we had that didn't satisfy us was the lobster soup, which we had at Seabaron. It was almost $20 for a tiny soup, and had almost nothing in it. Like..one tiny piece of lobster, and then all broth. Wayyyy overhyped by tourists. I'm curious to see if you guys made it to Brauð & Co. Best cinnamon rolls ever. 😋 Excited to see the rest of your series. I hope you enjoyed Iceland as much as I did!
Thanks for recognizing our attempts to pronounce things properly! The lobster soup was definitely on the smaller size especially for the cost, but we thought it was pretty decent, but honestly it's got nothing compared to the pysler haha. Ah we didnt make it there! Cinnamon Rolls would have been a fantastic addition!
@@ChadandClaire I'm from the East Coast of Canada, from a province that is known for (actual) lobster, much like Maine. So knowing that I could probably buy a full fresh lobster for the cost of the tiny soup we got definitely played a part in my opinion. 😆 Oh man. You guys seriously missed out. Even after two years of living in Germany and having access to some of the best baked treats in the world, it stood out as one of the best pastries I'd ever had. 🤤
I left Iceland today! Can't believe I missed the chance to meet you guys! One thing to note: Hallgrímskirja's design was actually specifically inspired by the basalt columns around the Svartifoss Waterfall.
I had been contemplating going to either Iceland or Norway next year to see the northern lights, and you guys are REALLY pushing me towards Iceland here lol On a totally different topic, I so hope we get a Christmas Tree tour in December, so we can get a recap of your amazing journeys so far! Love your videos, guys ❤️
We love Iceland. We usually stop over at Reykjavik for a few days before heading to the mainland of Europe. You may be able to cover both Iceland and Norway the same trip. Look up Norway in a Nutshell for the most compact and scenic Norway experience.
Iceland is bittersweet to me.. I was there over New Years 93/94... was very remote & the discovery was great. I was back there a year ago.. still lots to see & do.. but now the web is saturated with info about it. The moral: I've learned that when I go somewhere new I want to mot overdue it w/ research...cause it becomes mundane & u end up living someone else's experience. Just a thought.
Thank you for your video. We just came back from Iceland and tried Loki Cafe. The food was good, but little disappointed with their service on that day.
Love your videos! Your Iceland trip looked great! Going there soon and looking forward to all the wonderful foods as much as the beautiful landscapes. I loved the little sheep ornament you picked up, would love one of the same. Where did you get it? Thanks for sharing this amazing country.
I have had lamb in several countries. The best flavor and texture has always been in Iceland. The fish paste, for me, should start with a quality cod. Haddock or Pollack are acceptable, as is Halibut. Putting it on any quality dark rye, which has a fairly neutral flavor, helps bring out the flavor of any herbs or spices used with the fish. Also, caraway seeds, which are liberally used in inferior rye breads, are an affront to anyone who values traditional bread making. Generally, traditional Icelandic foods are descended from old Norse, as is much of Icelandic culture. Adapted over the past thousand years of relative isolation from Europe to fit the local resources, I have enjoyed nearly every aspect of Icelandic food. Had I more resources, I would consider retiring there. Time for more coffee.
Bless is a short for "Be Blessed" or Vertu Blessađur for male and Vertu Blessuđ for female Thanks 🙏 for lovely tour See you in the next one.. OneLove 🕊
I loved your video and the way you described everything!! Thank you!!! 💛 What is the name of the first restaurant you went to? I would love to try one day
Rye bread is always black or brown it’s best in Estonia Germany Poland etc other many countries eat that with everything so does Iceland . Trying to visit them this October bank holiday❤😅🎉😊
Re the fermented shark: My mother (recently deceased at 88) loved it, my father (now 97) still hates it, AS DO I. It truly is an acquired taste, like Guinness beer and pickled olives.
Hi kids, wow the food. Omg. I probably wouldn’t like much, I’m not a fan of lamb . But the yogurt, I tried that brand in the local store here, it’s so thick. Your right chad , like a cheese. Not my taste, I like Greek yogurt 😊. Really looking forward to this series 😊. Stay safe and have fun 🌹
Hello from France It must change you from the heat of Italy. A little gag: When Chad said the water was 98° and he put his hand in it, I thought he was going to get burned because I think it was degrees celsius, we're so used to this unit measurement in Europe for information 98°C= 208°F
I love Iceland. I love the peoples which I consider one of the most honest humble peoples in the world. Whoever , when it come to food , there is no single reason in our planets for any traveler foodie to choose icleand as one platter in Iceland probably cost what I will.spend in 2 weeks in other places in Asia. Even for Icelandic, I think is cheaper to travel overseas include adding airfare for dining in two days than try to dine in your block... Sample sandwich or slice pizza 20.00+
As always, another great video. Bec Chad went to get the second serving of hotdog , I feel like I want to go back to Iceland hahah. For me, you guys are the Best. Looking forward for your next video. Take care❤️❤️❤️
Great video. The views were amazing and everything seems so serene Food looked very tasty and it was nice dreaming about all that food lol. You two always put out such great videos. Have a great week and enjoy your travels. I can’t wait to see your Xmas tree this yr with all your ornaments you two have been collecting. Love special ornaments like that ❤️
The traditional "Harðfisk" process as practiced in the West Fjords of Iceland (where I live) was to start drying it during a freeze - the original freeze-drying method. The only seasoning was to soak it in seawater. The "dot over the i" was the proper natural humidity in the West Fjords that made the local Harðfisk special. Of course these laborious methods are not cost-effective, it is now a lost art and any Icelandic Harðfisk you get is produced by mechanical freezing, usually under-or-overdone, mostly over-dried.
They did not ferment hakarl with urine. The Greenland shark has a high level of uric acid in it's flesh (because it has no urinary tract, and that is how it rids itself of liquid waste) that has to be eliminated in order for it to be edible. The shark is therefore pressed by weight underground to leach the uric acid out of it. The urine curing is an old myth.
One Day I Want Visit To islandia From My Kalimantan Island To Islandia is So Far I live in area middle of earth khatulistiwa just have 2 Weather Summer and Rainy, go To islandia in The North of earth, Will Be Fantastic journey 😀😀😀😀
Brennivín does not have the nickname "black death" , Black Death is a brand from Iceland that was popular in the 90's , the bottles came in a small coffin :) Try searching for Black Death Vodka
Really informative video with fun points about the history of the food! Also thanks for at least trying the pronunciations. You were way off but still, props for trying :)
definitely one of the Top 2 MOST EXPENSIVE countries i ever been to (other been Switzerland) but what a beautiful country.. from ice to fire at the same country... to help save a lot of money... i would do grocery shopping and have breakfast/ lunch to really save alot.... make some dinner.. but also experience local food as well.... most interesting local foods in whale meat, shark, puffin! enjoy! blue lagoon is also is a must do. very touristy and expensive but there are also other cheaper and just as pretty natural springs. Fontana Spa is a cheaper option and just as pretty and they do show you how to bake that rye bread underground.. from the hot natural volcanic ground.. which bakes the bread...very delicious and baking experience
Iceland was definitely our most expensive trip to date, but it truly is worth it if you can swallow the cost. We can't wait to share our blue lagoon experience with you in the next video! :D Iceland has so many fun experiences.
Thank you so much for joining us in Reykjavik (which I know I (Claire) pronounced wrong in the video 😭) as we ate our way around the city. 🥰 You all are in for a fantastic treat- this Iceland series might just be one of our best ones yet. If you follow us on Patreon and Instagram, you would already know that we chose to return to VAN LIFE (!!!!!) for a whole week, as we explored the majestic Icelandic countryside. Stay tuned for an exciting series of wholesome videos, showcasing the incomparable beauty of Iceland. 😁🇮🇸
“Bless bless” until the next one,
Claire (and Chad) 🤍
I'm Icelandic and I am so Happy you Like Icelandic food so much and you pronounced names so wrong it was funny 🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸
Very disrespectful the way you are pronouncing it.
Thank you for presenting our island so wonderfully. You beautiful people are always welcome back.
I love watching when people visit my country, it’s always fun seeing their reactions😊🇮🇸
Hello! We are in Reykjavik and went to Cafe Loki per your recommendation. Food was EXCELLENT!!! That rye bread was to die for!!! Thank you guys!!!
claire: “oh its not that bad”
chad: *trying so hard to keep it together* 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 so much fun
haha I was very happy with her eating the shark ! :) I was raised eating shark so i love it , but not so much the brennivín.. But you will often find the "hard fish" and shark on the same table and both are very good, I eat 1-2kg's of "hard fish" every month
you guys feel so homey idk how to explain it! but you both seem so sweet def the most peaceful loving channel on youtube 🤍!
Icelanders to tourist: "Try some traditional Icelandic food - it's fermented shark". Icelanders to each other: "We fooled another one".
Some like it. Then again, there are also people who like cold toilet seats.
I just love Iceland. The seafood there is absolutely great. I miss it and want to visit again soon. Thanks for sharing this food tour!
Great food tour!
France and Italy are some of my favourite place on Earth but Iceland 🇮🇸 is my happy place! No other places on Earth can compare to Iceland!I hope you will love it as much as we do!
Have a fabulous time!

It's nice to see two people complimenting each other , genuinely happy sharing experience . Keep it up.

Trust me. Iceland is the best place in the world. The food are all delicious. ❤
They better be. They cost enough¡!
You guys should have a travel and food show. Very enjoyable to watch. Reminds me of the way Anthony Bourdain used to take us on a trip with him. Well done!
Loved seeing all the food! We can't wait wait to visit Iceland now that we're a lot closer living in Germany! Thank you, Chad and Claire!
I am from Iceland and my Grand Grand mother just make shark stue for dinner😁🙂👍 nice watch 🙂👍

Iceland is so beautiful 💙💙💙
I love that you’re collecting tree ornaments!!
We love it as well! It's like a little game in each country we visit.

Absolutely beautiful, clean city! I LOVED the brightly colored roofs in the drone shots! Can't wait to see the days in the van!!! Safe travels!
Love your Iceland videos. A few years ago the wife and I put it in on our bucket list of places we wanted to go some day.
Great video, as always. James and I did Iceland a few years ago, and drove what we called the 'Citroën from hell' around the entire island for 8 days, staying at guest houses and hotels along the way.

Cafe Loki was my first ever meal in Iceland as well. I also had the combination platter. I've been there twice and am again missing it.
Pretty cool video guys. I am going soon. The Hot Dogs, as well as the, ummmmmm, fermented shark are definitely a try for me.
You did a much better job at pronouncing things than I ever would have. 🙃
It's nice that you guys put in so much effort to try and learn and say things the right way!

No way!! That's so interesting! We actually visited that waterfall as well! Wish we could have crossed paths! Safe travels home!
We may be reincarnated.
When we are reborn, we may live a painful life.
Please make this world a paradise so that everyone can be happy.
I like Icelandic food. Delicious. I am just back from Iceland in August.
I had been contemplating going to either Iceland or Norway next year to see the northern lights, and you guys are REALLY pushing me towards Iceland here lol
On a totally different topic, I so hope we get a Christmas Tree tour in December, so we can get a recap of your amazing journeys so far! Love your videos, guys ❤️
We love Iceland. We usually stop over at Reykjavik for a few days before heading to the mainland of Europe. You may be able to cover both Iceland and Norway the same trip. Look up Norway in a Nutshell for the most compact and scenic Norway experience.
Icelander here. Definitely pick Iceland. Not biased at all. Norway doesn't have our hot dogs.
I LOOOOOVE the Christmas ornament idea!!! I wanna do it!
Iceland is bittersweet to me.. I was there over New Years 93/94... was very remote & the discovery was great. I was back there a year ago.. still lots to see & do.. but now the web is saturated with info about it. The moral: I've learned that when I go somewhere new I want to mot overdue it w/ research...cause it becomes mundane & u end up living someone else's experience. Just a thought.
Thank you for your video. We just came back from Iceland and tried Loki Cafe. The food was good, but little disappointed with their service on that day.
Was just there a week ago. Get it on your bucket list.
Love your videos! Your Iceland trip looked great! Going there soon and looking forward to all the wonderful foods as much as the beautiful landscapes. I loved the little sheep ornament you picked up, would love one of the same. Where did you get it?
Thanks for sharing this amazing country.
COOL guys, Thank You. I've enjoyed all your videos so far. I can't wait to see this Christmas Tree you keep talking about.
Same here!! We need to find a tree!
Great video, good job looking for more
Thanks for including prices. Useful info
Thanks I really enjoyed your video
I have had lamb in several countries. The best flavor and texture has always been in Iceland.
The fish paste, for me, should start with a quality cod. Haddock or Pollack are acceptable, as is Halibut. Putting it on any quality dark rye, which has a fairly neutral flavor, helps bring out the flavor of any herbs or spices used with the fish. Also, caraway seeds, which are liberally used in inferior rye breads, are an affront to anyone who values traditional bread making.
Generally, traditional Icelandic foods are descended from old Norse, as is much of Icelandic culture. Adapted over the past thousand years of relative isolation from Europe to fit the local resources, I have enjoyed nearly every aspect of Icelandic food.
Had I more resources, I would consider retiring there.
Time for more coffee.

Welcome to our country. I hope you liked some of our stuff.
Your pronunciation is very good. Im very astonished.
Another amazing video!🎉🎉 liked your food reviews they all look so good🧡 waiting for the next iceland series😉😉
Great content! using your videos to plan our visit to Iceland :)
Claire, what was the name of the store where you got your ornament from?
Lol when Claire asks Chad if it's free 😂, and Chad responded back so fast it's free 🤣
I loved your video and the way you described everything!! Thank you!!! 💛 What is the name of the first restaurant you went to? I would love to try one day
Great food tour 😊Y'alls video quality just keeps getting better & better ❤🔥
awww I love the sheep ornament & the jelly fish ❤
Yay! Thank you! We love it too!
Rye bread is always black or brown it’s best in Estonia Germany Poland etc other many countries eat that with everything so does Iceland . Trying to visit them this October bank holiday❤😅🎉😊
I like your calming and soothing voice 🤭.
We will be in Reykjavik in 2 weeks!!!! I don’t eat fish so I might starve. Haha Thanks for a great video. Excited for more Iceland. 😊 Bless.
Not to worry! They have plenty of other options! Excited to share more of our trip with you!
You are such a cute couple! Love your video. In your video, I did not see much tourists around, when did you go to Iceland and which month?
Re the fermented shark: My mother (recently deceased at 88) loved it, my father (now 97) still hates it, AS DO I. It truly is an acquired taste, like Guinness beer and pickled olives.
Hi kids, wow the food. Omg. I probably wouldn’t like much, I’m not a fan of lamb . But the yogurt, I tried that brand in the local store here, it’s so thick. Your right chad , like a cheese. Not my taste, I like Greek yogurt 😊. Really looking forward to this series 😊. Stay safe and have fun 🌹
wow the lab shank looked increeeddible!! we've never heard of stew on bread either but it looks delicious. It's fall here in Canada too 😍🍂
Yay for falltime!
I can definitely see some Mark Wein in Claire but that is a reason for a successful travel channel
I went on a food tour in Iceland.. about $98 US. Went on 1 similar in Columbia.. about $22 US. Slightly diff cost of living in both place :)
Hello from France
It must change you from the heat of Italy.
A little gag: When Chad said the water was 98° and he put his hand in it, I thought he was going to get burned because I think it was degrees celsius, we're so used to this unit measurement in Europe
for information 98°C= 208°F
Ooops! I meant to clarify that. I did not burn my hand this time haha.
What is the name of the restaurant you ate at ? Would love to try it! I’m in Iceland!
I love Iceland.
I love the peoples which I consider one of the most honest humble peoples in the world.
Whoever , when it come to food , there is no single reason in our planets for any traveler foodie to choose icleand as one platter in Iceland probably cost what I will.spend in 2 weeks in other places in Asia.
Even for Icelandic, I think is cheaper to travel overseas include adding airfare for dining in two days than try to dine in your block...
Sample sandwich or slice pizza 20.00+
hellcome to my amazing city
As always, another great video. Bec Chad went to get the second serving of hotdog , I feel like I want to go back to Iceland hahah. For me, you guys are the Best. Looking forward for your next video. Take care❤️❤️❤️
You should! Those hot dogs are worth the flight! haha
Iceland is crazy $$$$$$... how long are you staying
Great video. The views were amazing and everything seems so serene Food looked very tasty and it was nice dreaming about all that food lol. You two always put out such great videos. Have a great week and enjoy your travels. I can’t wait to see your Xmas tree this yr with all your ornaments you two have been collecting. Love special ornaments like that ❤️
It's nice to hear that we seem to be improving! It's not always easy to recognize. We can't wait to see our ornament collection officially hung up!
I really love your personality 😻😻 so cute and lovely
She is literally the only person I've seen eat that fermented shark and say "it's not that bad" most people gag!
Hey loved this video goimg Iceland in 2 months haven’t booked hotel where did you stay and how was it??
Here is the link to where we stayed! We really enjoyed it, but you have to decide if it meets your needs.

The traditional "Harðfisk" process as practiced in the West Fjords of Iceland (where I live) was to start drying it during a freeze - the original freeze-drying method. The only seasoning was to soak it in seawater. The "dot over the i" was the proper natural humidity in the West Fjords that made the local Harðfisk special. Of course these laborious methods are not cost-effective, it is now a lost art and any Icelandic Harðfisk you get is produced by mechanical freezing, usually under-or-overdone, mostly over-dried.
Also wondering what is the best way to get around in Iceland did you have a car or public transportation?
They did not ferment hakarl with urine. The Greenland shark has a high level of uric acid in it's flesh (because it has no urinary tract, and that is how it rids itself of liquid waste) that has to be eliminated in order for it to be edible. The shark is therefore pressed by weight underground to leach the uric acid out of it. The urine curing is an old myth.
Thank you to you are the Icelandic food with respect I would not have eating the shark
Great vid
Would’ve like to see the prices from all the food stops anyway to get that from you?
When did you travel to Iceland? Beginning or end of September?
Last minute trip to Iceland in a week and a half is this a good idea? Where to stay ?

Just curious, at what time of year was this video filmed?
Lamb soup is pretty good, and the hot dog is the most delicious hot dog I have ever tasted in my life and its cheap 🤣

Brennivín does not have the nickname "black death" , Black Death is a brand from Iceland that was popular in the 90's , the bottles came in a small coffin :) Try searching for Black Death Vodka
I am the first viewer! Enjoy guys!
Nice!! Hope you enjoy!

Really informative video with fun points about the history of the food! Also thanks for at least trying the pronunciations. You were way off but still, props for trying :)
Glad you enjoyed it! Wish we could properly pronounce it. Guess we gotta keep practicing haha.
This church looks like the canela church in Rio grande do Sul, Brazil

what time of year did you film this?
I'm just wondering if it tastes like brown bread ice cream. Couldn't b much different.
Ah we need to try brown bread icecream!
We've never had it!
2:46 Plokkfiskur is actually from Norway, they call it Plokkfisk
definitely one of the Top 2 MOST EXPENSIVE countries i ever been to (other been Switzerland) but what a beautiful country.. from ice to fire at the same country... to help save a lot of money... i would do grocery shopping and have breakfast/ lunch to really save alot.... make some dinner.. but also experience local food as well.... most interesting local foods in whale meat, shark, puffin! enjoy! blue lagoon is also is a must do. very touristy and expensive but there are also other cheaper and just as pretty natural springs. Fontana Spa is a cheaper option and just as pretty and they do show you how to bake that rye bread underground.. from the hot natural volcanic ground.. which bakes the bread...very delicious and baking experience
Iceland was definitely our most expensive trip to date, but it truly is worth it if you can swallow the cost. We can't wait to share our blue lagoon experience with you in the next video! :D Iceland has so many fun experiences.
