It’s that time of year again…where midnight fe It’s that time of year again…where midnight feels like noon it’s SO BRIGHT OUT! This tip will change your life (or at least your sleep quality) during your trip - BRING A SLEEP MASK! The midnight sun in Iceland is no joke - it’s bright, it’s beautiful, and it’ll SERIOUSLY mess up your sleep cycle if you don’t pack properly ☀️ But with a sleep mask, you can rest easy (literally) knowing that you won’t be disturbed by the 24-hour daylight. This one is so soft and silky! You literally feel like you’re in a cozy cocoon of darkness, no matter the time of day. It’s also affordable and easy to order 📦 I have it linked in my stories for anyone who’s curious - just visit my “Packing Links” highlight 🧳

Pro Tip: You've GOTTA add "try an Icelandic ice cr Pro Tip: You've GOTTA add "try an Icelandic ice cream cone" to your bucket list 🍦🍦🍦 Friends, I don't know what it is about the ice cream in Iceland. Maybe it's that their cows are so happy from all of the grazing they do amongst gorgeous Icelandic views??? 🤔 I seriously don't know what their secret is. But that creamy, full-fat goodness is to die for. I don't care if you buy it at a specialty ice cream shop or pick up some gas station soft serve - just make sure you try it. You WON'T regret it! Now lemme know in the comments - are you more of a soft serve or hard serve kinda gal/guy? 👇 . . . . . #icelandwithaview #iceland #icelandtravel #icelandtrip #visiticeland #icelandadventure #icelandplanning #icelandblogger #icelandvlogger #icelandtips #icelandadvice
Diamonds are (this girl’s 🙋‍♀️) best fr Diamonds are (this girl’s 🙋‍♀️) best friend 💎 But seriously friends - is this not the most UNIQUE beach you’ve ever seen? Located in the southeastern part of the country, Diamond Beach (also known as Breiðamerkursandur) is a breathtaking black sand beach dotted with glistening icebergs 🧊 The ice comes from the nearby Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, which is connected to the ocean by a narrow channel. As the icebergs make their way through the channel and into the sea, they wash up on the beach, creating a mesmerizing display of colors and shapes ✨ Be sure to SAVE this Reel so you can add Diamond Beach to your Iceland Itinerary! 💎 And if you don’t have one yet but you need one - shop all of my Iceland itineraries via the link in my bio!
