Tourist Guide

Drone shot of awesome Sigöldugljúfur - Valley of tears in Iceland. You need to get proper 4x4 car to get there but its really worth it. Not to mention that there will not be a lot of tourists or probably none at all so you can enjoy raw #nature at peace :)

The land of fire and ice – Iceland. Though, after these 2 weeks I think I’m going to rename it the land of waterfalls and rainbows.
The Skógafoss waterfall is one of the waterfalls situated at the south coast of Iceland. It's lucky to see double rainbow during my visit in October 2017.
Conquer the 527 steps to the viewing platform at Skógafoss waterfall - gorgeous in and of itself - and over the stile to the trail beyond. The trail is over 20kms but even a very short day hike on the well marked start of the trail brings you amazing views of waterfalls on the Skoga river and the glaciers beyond. #Bestof5
