Iceland

Hot springs, volcanoes, and Northern Lights.

Iceland is a small island country located in the North Atlantic Ocean, just south of the Arctic Circle. It is part of the Nordics, even though its neighbors are pretty far away.

Iceland is known for its dramatic landscapes, including glaciers, volcanoes, hot springs, and waterfalls. The country is also home to a variety of wildlife, including reindeer, sheep, and puffins. There are many reasons to visit Iceland, but one of the most popular is to see the Northern Lights. These natural lights are best seen in the winter months, when they are visible in the night sky. Other popular activities include hiking, fishing, and visiting the capital city of Reykjavik.

When it comes to food, Icelanders enjoy fresh seafood, lamb, and dairy products. Popular dishes include Icelandic fish soup, grilled lamb, and skyr (a type of yogurt).
