Of Legendary Landscapes, Huldufolk & Nordic Nirvana

Iceland

ICELAND

Iceland the most desolate piece of land at the top of the globe is elemental, volcanic and still in the process of evolution. Iceland transforms you and glues your vision to its legendary landscapes and leaves you in a state of awe at the immensity of its raw beauty-pristine and virginal. Iceland is also about the folk beliefs of mysterious hidden people or huldufolk, the glorious midnight sun, splendor of Aurora Borealis, walking on glaciers and taking a hot water dip. Iceland is also about Nordic sagas, music and the disarming hospitality of an eco-conscious people.
