Here’s what you need to know before embarking on an Iceland road trip: (here’s a vlog of our whole trip on YouTube) It’s a good idea for everyone. Iceland is a great destination for basically any type of traveler. It’s great for experienced travelers because it has so much to offer that you just can’t find…
Those of you who know me know that I’m a sucker for street art, so it comes as no surprise that one of the things I was most excited to do in Reykjavik was hunt down theirs. And this city brings it. Reykjavik, Iceland’s capital and the world’s most northern capitol, is such a great city…

I was lucky enough to visit NYC twice in 2016, experiencing both its summer and winter.
