With just a few days to go before we leave thoughts have already been turning to home – back to the familiar, the usual everyday. Back to family, warm weather, dark nights and noise from outside the home that isn’t just birds or wind. Back to a world that is more closely wrapped around us, where streets and houses exist in constricted spaces unlike here where the view from wherever you are is of miles and miles of land, sky, sea, mountains. We expand our lungs to breathe in this pure air and we expand our vision so that we have begun to feel completely at ease with the space around us, aware and in awe of our small presence in this seemingly endless landscape.
Leaving here is inevitable but Iceland won’t be leaving us so easily.
