The Aurora Borealis takes its name from the Roman goddess of dawn, Aurora, and the Greek word for the north wind, Boreas. These are the last days of the year you may still be lucky enough to witness green&yellow&violet skies in Iceland.

Today, let's use snow as a travel path to the foothills of the Alps.
This is Neuschwanstein Castle, in Germany. Its story links to eccentric Bavarian King Ludwig II (1864–1886) who used the castle as a personal retreat from the word for him and his servants, after the Austro-Prussian war

No such imposing buildings exist in Iceland. The reason? The country was founded in 874 and allthough there were some fortresses built throughout its history, they didn't pass the test of time and weather.

⛰When in Iceland, don't miss this hike.
🛖You can save two days for it and sleep at one of the scenic highland huts.

This hike between two massive glaciers takes you through waterfalls, lava sands, snow and newly formed mountains. So we couldn't recommend it more.

Klaksvík is the second largest town of the Faroe Islands.
Twinned with Kópavogur in Iceland, the city used to be only accessible by water until 2006, when a road tunnel was built.
The community- about 5000 inhabitants- is very much anchored in its fishing culture.
