SWIPE 👉🏼 To Marvel At Some Of Iceland's Most

SWIPE 👉🏼 To Marvel At Some Of Iceland's Most Iconic Churches ⛪️

From cute wooden chapels to dramatic black stone churches, each of these Icelandic gems is uniquely beautiful in its own way 😍

1️⃣ Seyðisfjörður Rainbow Road Church

This adorable light blue church is like something out of a fairy tale, sitting pretty at the end of a colorful road.

2️⃣ Ingjaldshóll Church

A classic red and white Icelandic church, perched amongst the dramatic backdrop of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula. The Snæfellsjökull glacier in the background makes it extra impressive for photo opps!

3️⃣ Vík Church

The red roof of Vík Church is a total showstopper against the black sand beaches and dramatic cliffs of Iceland's southern coast.

4️⃣ Húsavík Church

This wooden church in the charming town of Húsavík has a unique look and dates back to 1907. It looks like it could be straight out of a Wes Anderson film!

5️⃣ Hvalsneskirkja Reykjanes Church

Built in 1887, this black stone church on the Reykjanes Peninsula is a true gem. With stunning ocean views and a historic graveyard right next door, it's definitely one of Iceland's most picturesque churches.

6️⃣ Búðir Church

This small black wooden church is one of Iceland's most picturesque. Perched on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, this church is famous for hosting destination weddings!

Let’s take a vote 👉🏼 Should cashiers help you bag your groceries - yes or no? 😂

But in all seriousness, I know every country has its own unique customs when it comes to grocery store etiquette 🛒 And while I may feel like a whirlwind of chaos trying to keep up with the lightning-fast Icelandic cashiers, I totally respect and appreciate these cultural differences!

I mean hey — it’s all part of the adventure, right? 😅

Ready to set sail for an EPIC Icelandic adventure?

Ready to set sail for an EPIC Icelandic adventure? Come with me to the Westman Islands! ⛴️

Tucked away off the south coast, these islands are filled with wonders—from puffin colonies to volcanic landscapes. 🌋

They’re a remote paradise that gives off quintessential Icelandic charm ✨

Here’s how to spend a perfect day on the islands 👇🏼

Catch the Herjólfur ferry or fly from Reykjavík…but just be careful to keep an eye on the weather because either could be canceled! 🌦️

Then, hike Eldfell volcano for stunning views and say hi to the cutest locals —AKA the puffins!

Next, immerse yourself in Icelandic history at the Eldheimar Museum and indulge in exceptional seafood at Slippurinn.

Wash it down with Icelandic craft beer at Brother’s Brewery 🍻

Talk about a perfect day, am I right or am I right? 😉

And let me know in the comments…

Have I convinced you yet? Ready to add this Iceland hidden gem to your itinerary?

I cringe when I see this...

Tourist lining up to buy bottled water for their Iceland trip.

Whatever you do, please:

JUST SAY NO TO BUYING OVERPRICED BOTTLE WATER! 🙅‍♀️

Save your coins for a fancy dinner out indulging in delicious Icelandic lamb. Or for hot spring admissions. Or for literally anything else.

Instead of buying plastic bottles, make like a local and bring a reusable water bottle to fill up everywhere you go. I promise, Icelandic water is some of the freshest, cleanest, most DELICIOUS water you’ll taste in your life! 💧

Trust me, your wallet (and the environment) will thank you.

And if you’re serious about avoiding tourist traps and saving money on your Iceland trip, you don’t want to miss my Iceland Guidebooks + Maps.

They’re packed with insider tips on the best local spots, hidden gems, and even exclusive discounts to help you stretch your budget further. 💰

Should you REALLY travel to Iceland with all of the volcano eruptions going on? 🤔

YES, you absolutely should!

While the affected area is isolated to a small region on the Reykjanes peninsula, the rest of Iceland remains safe and open for visitors.

The foreign media tends to overdramatize, but for the most part, life (and travel) is pretty much business as usual in Iceland.

You will have to avoid the area closest to the eruptions (which means skipping out on the Blue Lagoon!) but other than that, Iceland is waiting to be explored 💚

So book that flight, pack your bags, and get ready to experience the magic of Iceland! ✨
