What a sweetie Anne is - met us for some map time and tea - and highlighted the highlights of someone who has lived in Iceland for 7 months with her husband who is studying how weather systems impact rivers and streams while she takes a break from nursing world to knit and do awesome drawings (www.drawingsbyanne.com), and volunteers for "harm reduction" for the Red Cross, plays soccer and ultimate frisbee back in Minnesota.
A short, sweet - but geographically grounding visit with Anne.
Iceland is supposedly remote and in a little, tiny world - some say. I say - it's a rich culture with a mix of cool, hip and interesting folk. It's so worth putting it out there when travel is on horizon to hear from friends of friends of friends - it helps make it even more of an adventure...
dare I say - find the locals.
