It was the beginning of my short 4-day solo trip to where I had always dreamed to visit.

I had always wanted to see the Northern Lights or the “Aurora Borealis” and initially this was what drew me to Iceland.  A few days before my trip that I did more research on what was there to “experience” in Iceland and I was so amazed to discover there there were so many incredible places to visit and activities to do.  As I only used Reykjavík as a base for this trip, this post will be somewhat minimal while my later Iceland adventure posts will be on my daily excursions on this freezing and strangely beautiful alien planet filled with never ending snow.
