This month has gone by so fast, I literally didn’t even realize it was the end of January!
I guess they really mean time flies when you are having fun!Here is what we have been up to the last (belated) month.

Our Life in Iceland - Month 5 | Life With a View

12/19 – I hosted a cookie exchange and game night with some of our friends. I spent the whole day baking all kinds of sweets and treats, and it really hit me that I missed doing these things with my mom and sister for the holidays!12/25 – Christmas was pretty low key with just the two of us this year. Thankfully we had a long skype session with my whole family and I got to see my parents open their gift. Bobby and I did a loooooot of relaxing and watched an embarrassing amount of movies. It was wonderful!

12/26 – Another beautiful day called for a day trip to Gullfoss waterfall. I remember when we first saw this waterfall and thinking I would love to see it in the winter. Well, turns out it is somehow more beautiful with snow!

​12/30 – Every year on my birthday I’m always waiting to see what Bobby has planned. He knows that he can’t use the “this is your Christmas AND birthday gift” excuse I have been getting my whole life, so he usually makes the birthday gift pretty good. After work I was getting ready to go to one of our favorite restaurants when he told me to start packing my suitcase instead – we leave for Sweden in seven hours!12/31 – So we spent New Years in Stockholm, which was so fun! What a beautiful city, full post details coming soon!

​1/6 – We booked our flights for Ireland in May, woo hoo! Our friends are coming to Iceland and then we are heading to North and South Ireland for a week to explore together. Super excited to see that beautiful country! Um, hello fresh Guinness IN Ireland!1/13 – After work the sky was clear so I took advantage of getting some views of the city from above. Perlan is a great place to get some views of the city from above. Even though I only had my iphone with me, you can’t beat this view!

1/14 – Another evening with the wonderful ladies from the International group. It’s so wonderful to spend a few hours each month connecting with other expat women living in Iceland, everyone has great stories!1/16 – I joined in on my first InstaMeet with fellow Instagrammers from Iceland and some guests from NYC. We spent the day walking around Reykjavik and taking photos of this adorable city.
