How I Spent 4 Days In Iceland
Hallgrimskrikja

Around this time last year, I took a quick 4-day trip with my cousin to Reykjavik, Iceland for my 19th birthday. I had only thought about ever going to Iceland once when I was searching on Pinterest and saw pictures of the Blue Lagoon. While the trip destination was random, it was the best idea ever.

What I Did:

  • Golden Circle Tour
    • Thingvelllir National Park
    • Geyser Hot Springs
    • Gullfoss Waterfall
  • Galaxy Pod Hostel
  • Whale Watching
  • Harpa Concert Hall
  • See the Rainbow Road
  • Blue Lagoon (highlight of my trip)
  • Hallgrimskirkja

Blue Lagoon:

Iceland is home to one of the natrual wonders of the world. The Blue Lagoon is a geothermal spa located in Norðurljósavegur, Iceland and is one of Iceland’s most famous attractions. The water felt amazing and free facials left my skin feeling smooth. This retreat spa is a must when visiting Iceland. 

Places to Eat:

  • Reykjavik Street Food
  • Cafe Babalu
  • Hamborgarrabulla Tomasar
  •  Flatty Pizza (recommended by locals)
  • Noodel Station (recommended by locals)

Harpa Concert Hall:

The most architecturally beautiful building I had ever seen. 

What To Wear:

Iceland is an extremly cold country and layering is key.
