Wonders will never cease


Good morning my friends,

You guys already know that this is our last stop, but you know what they say… Save the best for last. And this is what we did, because even though it’s a very exhausting last stop, it’s definitely a country worth visiting. As Isabella already said, Iceland’s nature is amazing! You know that we decided to do the “Golden Circle”, and now I’m going to explain you a little bit more about this tour. Of course we’re not in Reykjavik yet because we still have to walk a few days before we get to the finish.

The “Golden Circle” exists out three primary stops:

1.       The National Park Pingvellir
2.       Waterfall Gullfos
3.       The active valley of Haukadalur

To do this tour we have to complete a route of 300km. Some of us are getting a little tired, but we were all very excited to see these three wonders of nature.  In the meantime we’ve already seen two of them and it’s obvious that it’s definitely an experience of a lifetime. In my point of view, Iceland its nature is very special because sometimes we see snow and ice, and a few kilometers later we see lots of green and animals. That’s probably because the creation of this country is still progressing today, due to volcanic eruptions. Because of its youthfulness new animal species are still being discovered today, and that’s not something that you here every day.Everything that we’ve been seeing this week seems magical…

during our tour. So, we’re doing the best we can to keep you updated, and if it’s not possible to tell you about our last experiences here in Iceland we will post our adventures when we’re home again.

This was my last blog post, but I assure you that one of my friends will tell you something about the end of our trip. Thank you for reading my posts and don’t hesitate to write a comment to tell me what you think about this route!
