What NOT to do in Iceland
Hello Friends! In this episode I talk about being safe when coming to Iceland. There is so much to see and so many places to go. It's easy to be distracted by the intoxicating beauty of this wonderful country. I'll be speaking to common sense and being focused on being safe. New Yorkers know that not walking through Central Park at night is common sense. Here, getting your vehicle or yourself out of the road before taking a photo is/should be common sense. Heeding waring signs and speed limit signs should also be common sense. I'll be talking about all these things and more. Look below to see links for road conditions, road closings and other useful safety information.
The emergency number in Iceland is 112 (Iceland's version of 911)
