on 29 March till 11 April 2018, this trip was actually my real adventure that I have ever had.. It was like we were in another world, Iceland has amazed us so many cool ways.. alright let's start my journal..

30.03.18
along the way of the road.. you can't take your eyes off of it.. it's different, strange, weird, beautiful, dangerous..
Gullfoss
It was like the magic for the first time when you saw this huge amazing waterfall, there was a little long walk before seeing this awesome waterfall. It's like you are about to go somewhere and suddenly this huge waterfall just shows up in front of you. It was like a real magic, so beautiful...
this huge waterfall seems so powerful, you can see how powerful it is even you are far away from the entrance of the gate. While you walk beside of the Gullfoss, the sounds of the waterfall is about to cheer up your chest to stay calm. It is loud but calm your mind.
Seljalandsfoss
This waterfall is seriously cool. You can walk through behind the waterfall and be ready to get wet as well but hey it was worth it... : )
It was more than just a dream comes true..
The waterfall looked unreal.. as I walked in I felt like "Is this real, does my dream come true????"
It was my huge REAL dream comes TRUE..
I left with no words but full of happiness in my chest ... lovely.
secret lagoon
This is the our first time at natural lagoon in Iceland,
we all (the girls) were trying to have a group photo hahaha I love our energies
It was really nice to be in this natural lagoon surrounding by nature.. You guys gotta come over here if you were in Iceland! : )
not to far from the lagoon there is a place calls Þingvellir, Arnessysla you can walk around, both side were huge high stones, it's like you were walking through the big stones and at the end of it, there is a view point, from there you can see the three cute house standing there, I ain't sure if there is just the house or kind of company or anything but they looked so cute : )
After finished walking, we were having lunch and drove mile away looking for somewhere for the night. It is kinda fun that every night we gotta find a place to stay our camping cars and stay over. It's so many different places where you can drive around and stop your car. They have enough camping place for you to stand your car and they even offer kitchen, washing machine, and the bath.
As we stopped our cars here it was already dark and we couldn't see so much things.. I just heard the sound of the huge water fall but couldn't see it clearly.. but in the morning as I opened the door to walk out of the car I just saw a hugeeeeee lovely waterfall that it's kind of famous because it was on Justin Bieber's Music video..
We went for hiking, walked up to the hill and took a long walk.. during our long walking, nearby it's a huge waterfall along the way up there.. Iceland is crazy beautiful.. really crazy..
I couldn't take my eyes away from the thing in front of me... If my eyes were a camera, my photos would probably only the photos of Icelandic Landscape.. what an amazing Land..
I have never ever seen any countries madly beautiful like Iceland before.. I love you so much Iceland! I Love you!!
It was windy as hell.. really.. so windy.. you couldn't walk straight through the wind, as me and my friends walked straight to the black sand beach, we had to turn around and walk backward hahaha it was like your face just being hit by the wind and you gotta fight it with your back.. haha and most important thing.. Please.. I warn you that you have to wear as much clothes you could put them on.. because the wind could get through your jacket.. I wear two or three jumpers and two jackets as I walked out of the car hahahaha
I feel like me I just blocked the view.. hahaha I didn't know why the f*** I stand there and blocked the view.. hahaha
Did I think it was Iceland fashion week? hahaha
diamond beach
Black sand beach had amazed me pretty much but diamond beach just wanted me to grab some huge ice around.. It was insane guysssssss I was insane! Like the beach is black and there are so many pieces of ice laying on the beach make the beach looking like it's real DIAMOND : )
we drove more mile away from Diamond Beach and it amazed me how the road turned out like we were driving in heaven.. everything was blue and white..
We were stopping to see these holes, it smells sooooo bad, really bad. So bad that you don't even want to breathe in.. but it looks so interested
there are some places that I can't remember the name of it.. but it was worth it to visit though..
as you can see human look so tiny to our planet.. I love how we have a chance to see things differently while we are traveling... It's not just dress well and get drunk with empty soul, I want to be a kid in human body which you are allowed yourself to do what you love to do, fully living your life.
somewhere in the north..
and we were trying to have cool group photo
then took a break at a cool coffee shop, it was so cuteeeee
Myvatn Nature Baths / Jarðböðin við Mývatn
This time I went in there not that long, I was a bit tired but pretty much happy inside of my chest
somewhere during our drive around iceland
You can't really trust so much about the weather in Iceland, it can change in 2 minutes from raining to sunny and sometime from sunny to snowing plus the storm, by the storm I mean you have to stop your car.. Yes, STOP YOUR CAR. Park it somewhere.. I have filmed a video how the storm is in Iceland.
before the storm
the storm is about to hit...
but before the storm hit us it was so beautiful the view looks unreal..
Pink Skies before the storm looked like candy
We stopped our cars for a night there because we couldn't drive through the storm...
It is really expensive in Iceland, like it's gonna be much better for you to cook your own meals..
It was like 80 Euro for Orange juice and a plate of fish dish. But it was delicious tho.. hahaha
the mossy lava fields | Eldhraun
we stopped somewhere and it looks a bit scary but nice anyway
as everyone tried to fishing I just mind only my own business.. haha
We went for shopping and bought some food and having BBQ as our dinner but guess what!? It was f***ing freezing... I ran in and out of the car for warm up my feet..
before we ended up at Arctic Sea Tour we were looking for the organisation or tour for whale watching and strolling down on the street somewhere out there
The arctic tour was so cold, the weather seemed so nice in the picture but it was so cold.. it freezed our feet. I couldn't feel my feet during the tour. And bad luck we didn't see any whales.. hahaha but the tour wasn't guarantee at first that we were going to see the whale or not, it is kind of out of hands.. it pretends on luck.. but yeah at least we have been in the middle of the arctic sea ain't it??
We were not even regret it though. hahaha
after unsuccesful of whale watching we wer in the city, drank some warm drinks and strolled the city..
I ain't sure how much did we pay for parking the cars here but as I could remember it was so cheap, we had paid about 10 Euro per Person.. to enjoy this view..
Can you imagine? The whole view is just for 10 Euro???
That night, this place had owned by us.. hahaha it was just only us that stayed there.. The hot pool outside with the sea view cover by snow.. damnnnn it was so worth it to spend your money on adventure..
Today, we went separate with the men. We four women decided to go to a restuarant and having some drinks.. The view was really great. You can see the Kirkjufell from the window.
It was like few day before we came back to Austria and the only thing we want to see is the northern lights, we were feeling unlucky because the waitress at the restuarant told us that tonight it seems impossible.. but yeah after around 10 pm we walked back to the cars, our drivers were so drunk they just had too much beers hahaha
As we all ladies stayed in the another cars, we had noticed that there was another car near us, and they tried to clean the window.. it was like around 11pm till Midnight I guess.. and someone just shouted out of the window and asked us if we were Thai and we immediately said "YESSSS" back, they asked us to follow their cars to drive a bit away to see the northern lights together but we couldn't because our drivers were drunk. So they let us jump into their car and it was like 7-8 People included us haha don't do this guys. it's actually not allowed here..
And luckily as we drove away with them to see the northern lights, they told us after few minutes that the Northern lights was about to show up there. It was like a magic.. They looked like paintings.. Our biggest goal have achieved.. finally.. it was only one thing we had waited for..
blue lagoon
This was only one photo group that we have during our trip in Iceland. I'm really happy to have this kind of friends arounf me. To support each other, to lifts each other up when one other feel down. And as important as the friendship is "distance". We don't go that deep or that much about our private life, you can be as close as you want but the distance is also as important as friendship. That is what I love about us the most. I couldn't wait and seriously so ready to go an adventure with them for more and more! It ain't easy to have these kind of friends where you can traveling around the world with. I'm such a lucky kid tho.
Most of time we cooked the meals during our road trip by ourselves and my favourite one of grilled dish is grilled mushroom, it was so delicious!!! : )
It was like the last day of being in Icelnad and guess what?
Our flights got cancelled... The e-mail that we had received was telling us that our next flight is on the next 5-6 days... so and the next day we had to give the cars back and we were really mad because of the call centre didn't work, obviously no one gonna pick up the phone because they (pilots) struck.. And the airline just let us out of nowhere.
We decide to buy the new ticket back to Austria and the next few day I got a flight to Berlin.. It was such a mess that day and I don't want to mention this airline again.. but since then I never ever fly with them again. L..
most of people who is leaving Iceland look tired... you can barely see how tired we are here on the flight back home, Iceland is pretty much like a huge dream world for us adults who loves adventure.. Damn Icaland I'm sure that I'm going back to you again one day.. Love !
