SÃ¦l Ã‰g er stelpa frÃ¡ ReykjavÃk… Hi I am a girl from ReykjavÃk.
Iceland is a fabulous place to live in and yes it is weird and haunting.
Talk to almost any modern-day Icelander and they smile upon the mention of hidden people, trolls and elves — but few will deny them! Many relate personal visits to fortune tellers, special card readings and having old aunt, or two with “the magic eye”. This special supernatural power enables her to communicate with the other world.
Oh, yes… BjÃ¶rk is a quirky person, she is who she is.. her self.. and has never lost her identity. She was in my english class when I was 14-15 yrs would always sit in the back and bring her “chequered thermos” filled with black coffee which she would drink in class. I thought back then and still think that BjÃ¶rk is fab.
I take a lot of pictures from the nature and daily life in Iceland plenty pics from the nÃ¡ttÃºra concert hosted by BjÃ¶rk & sigur RÃ³s -you got my email.
Good rule of thumb in Iceland — always be kind to strangers. You never know who (or what) they might be.

I already have a pair of vintage ones, for free! please don’t send the swan dress to beat me up though. i love your blog and having to go to the hospital to treat my injuries would mean no internets.

Are you thinking ‘Lederhosen’ about the shorts? Are you trying to ruin them for me?!

I too will never forget the swan dress. Sublime! But the shorts?! No, no. Add suspenders and , well ewwww. Also they have pleats! I adore you Sister Wolfe. But not these shorts.
About Iceland, I was there once when our plane from London to L.A. lost an engine. Everything is weird. Haunting not so much.
