Iceland! Looking for people from Iceland!
Hello Iceland-people!
I've never visited your country in my life, but since a few years me and my boyfriend are thinking about making a tour from Iceland on foot. We would make that trip in one of the next three years (2005, 2006, 2007). For this, we don't want to stay in hotels, because our opinion is that if you stay in a hotel, you are a "stupid tourist". So are looking for places where we can stay for a few days and maybe earn some money (like a farm, for example), so that we can really get to know your culture and way of life. So, if you are a lucky person who can offer us a place like that, for one or more days, we would be really happy. If you could give us some more information about regions which we certainly have to visit (especially beautiful nature), please tell us. We thank you already for your hospitality and for letting us know something more (even though it were a little typical Icelandic recipe) we would be really pleased! Thank you in advance, Barbara and Davy from Belgium |

Hello Iceland-people! I am not from Iceland, but perhaps I can still give you some hints. I've never visited your country in my life, but since a few years me and my boyfriend are thinking about making a tour from Iceland on foot. We would make that trip in one of the next three years (2005, 2006, 2007). I strongly recommend you to do the tour as soon as possible - my boyfriend, another couple and I have spent two georgeous weeks in Iceland this summer. We were really thrilled by the amazing landscape and way of life in Iceland. For this, we don't want to stay in hotels, because our opinion is that if you stay in a hotel, you are a "stupid tourist". *g* So are looking for places where we can stay for a few days and maybe earn some money (like a farm, for example), so that we can really get to know your culture and way of life. I am not sure whether this is possible in Iceland, but there should be some Icelanders here who can tell you exactly. If you could give us some more information about regions which we certainly have to visit (especially beautiful nature), please tell us. You could have a look at our website http://www.kaiser.cx/travel/iceland2004/ and then ask further questions if you got some. I really liked the northeastern part of Iceland, with Joekullsargljufur National Park and Grimstadir, but also the East Fjords held a special attraction for me, as well as the Ingolfshoefdi peninsula in the south (just to mention the first three places that come to my mind). We thank you already for your hospitality and for letting us know something more (even though it were a little typical Icelandic recipe) we would be really pleased! Don't hesitate to try dried fish once - it's a quite interesting experience. ;-) Greetings from Germany, Martina -- "Ich bin ein Buch, holt mich hier raus!" Bücher tauschen unter www.buchticket.de |
