On a hot scorching Israeli summer day , me and my girlfriend took a decision to have a chilled travel destination this time and naturally we raised our eyes at LAT 65\u00b0 and north ….<\/div>\n

\"Picking<\/a>Iceland was our first, last and only place to see as we like to travel to modern well developed countries with no worries from us about anything at all .Well, not precisely. It is the Instush to blame, we like to dub the Instagram in Israel – Instush and it is to blame for the views I saw in the last couple of month posted by Icelandair.<\/div>\n
Those posts of the nature in Iceland nailed me down each night in front of my smartphone staring awe inspired at the magic revealed on the screen of the device. These days one does not need a book to get inspired , the web media, facebook, Instagram and others do the job and makes you go to the airport, not just the scorching heat of the country. \u00a0In a matter of minutes I called Austrian airlines and booked a flight and campervan from Rent.is<\/a>.<\/div>\n

Arriving at two AM in Keflavik receiving our campervan and throwing our tired bodies on the comfortable mattress of our NISSAN HOME for the next couple of weeks was the smartest thing to do on such an early hour in a new unfamiliar country.<\/div>\n

The next day and in an instant we started to feel the freedom of a new traveler in a new country with a nice car in our hands ready to explore new terrain like a chick that fly for the first time out from its nest.<\/div>\n
The smartphone camera was put into high readiness and the selfie stick prepared.<\/div>\n
We are ready for the ride of our lives ….<\/div>\n

Our nice NISSAN new home began to function as expected when only the northern sun gave us the impression that days never end in Iceland ..<\/div>\n
We forced ourselves each day to create a ”night” so we can rest and gain energy for the next day drive. Please rent.is, \u00a0next time we come we want darker curtains installed in our NISSAN so we can have a proper colour of night ha ha ..<\/div>\n

Driving in Iceland<\/span><\/h2>\n
Day by day we got more and more familiar with the car and road signs and gas stations<\/a> and rules and everything enjoying Iceland meandering Westfjords roads, the beautiful Snaefellsnes peninsula, great fish and chips at the magnificent Arnastapi picturesque village and the friendly lady that gave me the GPS coordinates so I can find an hidden thermal hot pool<\/a> in the vicinity.<\/div>\n
