Here - on these roads and with this scenery - is where music of Björk, Of Monsters and Men and Ólafur Arnalds makes perfect sense.

Látrabjarg

Cliffs that are commonly referred to as 'the edge of the world' 



Látrabjarg

These cliffs serve as home to many different species of birds. Apart from waves crushing down below, you hear a million loud chatting voices of puffins and gannets.



Roads and mountains in the northern part of Iceland

You can be driving for hours and hours without seeing no cities, no humans, no cars. Just a perfect unity with hypnotising nature. You really appreciate the lack of traffic. Especially once your car is blown into the opposite lane on 150 km/h with a gust of wind.



Hverir

The first thing you smell getting out of the plane is a strong scent of sulfur. It takes a few days to get to Hverir, where this smell is born. Hverir is one the most active volcanic zones - boiling mud pots, sulfur deposits, geothermal steams, roaring fissure vents and lava ropes make the place feel like another planet.



Hverir

Icelanders are friendly and hospitable. But offering your guests a hot spring bath after a long day is another type of hospitality. Well, because you just happen to live beside an active volcano and have the hot spring bath in your backyard. Long live, Icelandic AirBnB hosts!
