SNORKELING IN ICELAND | ดำน้ำหน้าหนาวระหว่างแผ่นเปลือกทวีปโลกที่ไอซ์แลนด์

What is the most out-of-this-world experience you have ever had?

ประสบการณ์ที่ฟินที่สุดในชีวิตของคุณ คืออะไร?

Were you expecting it to be so unforgettable?

How did you feel afterwards?

My last day in Iceland couldn’t have been any better. If you are planning to visit Iceland, I strongly suggest you prioritise this over other excursions.

และประสบการณ์นั้นเปลี่ยนแปลงอะไรในตัวคุณหรือเปล่า?

My good friend Cod Starusayang said to me me “Dude, you HAVE to go diving in Silfra in Thingvellir National Park. I did it and it was just out-of-this-world–nothing like I had experienced before”. To be honest, though knowing Cod is a very well-travelled individual, I still wasn’t convinced when he told me so. Not because I hadn’t done scuba diving before and hence I would only be able to snorkel, but it was because I am from warm sunny Thailand and we have some of the World’s best diving spots visited by thousands and thousands of international travellers each year. Why would I want to go diving or snorkelling in ICELAND in the winter?

เพื่อนบีคนนึงบอกบีว่า “บี! เธอต้องไปดำหน้าหรือ Snorkel ที่ Silfra ที่ไอซ์แลนด์ให้ได้!!! มันเป็นประสบการณ์ที่หลุดโลกสุด ๆ แบบที่เราไม่เคยได้ทำมาก่อนเลย!!! ตอนแรกที่ได้ฟังเค้าพูด บีก็คิดว่า เอ๊า! เรามาจากเมืองไทย ซึ่งเป็นประเทศที่โด่งดังทางด้านทะเลและการดำน้ำ ทำไมเราถึงจะต้องไปดำน้ำที่ไอซ์แลนด์ด้วย?

THE MIGHTY GULLFOSS NEARLY BLEW ME AWAY

October 7, 2015 3 Comments

I was nearly blown away. Literally.

The path which led to the “view point” on one of the rock edges was closed due to slippery ground and strong wind, but I noticed some people had ignored the sign and hopped over the little gate and so I followed them.

I had never stood at a place so mighty, intimidating, insanely cold and dangerously windy. I was all wrapped up in layers of body warmers and an oversized water-proof ski jacket but the humidity and the force of the wind somehow managed to penetrate effortlessly through my clothes and sent chills to my every fibre. The icy and slippery ground didn’t help either. I made sure that every single step I took was stable, because if I slipped and fell by any reason there was a possibility the strong wind could push me straight into the angry stream of Gullfoss.

THE BEGINNING

This was my very own sunset.

Time stands still every time I think of this darkening sky . I can still hear the sound of the ocean and feel the sunlight brushing my skin. And I wonder, would I ever see a sunset like this again?

The truth is, in my future days there will always be sunsets. Some might be somewhat memorable; some will be unforgettable. The sky, though, told me a secret: I will need to be present. I will need to be out there and feel it happen.
