Two years ago I decided to finally take my driver's license, and as a treat when it'd be all done, I would move to Iceland. This month, I've been living on this little island for one year now. Having previously visited and fallen completely in love with nature, I knew that it wouldn't be possible to live here without a car.

So, after six months, I finally found the right fit and bought my first little four-wheel drive to explore this country properly. I've now circled Iceland three times, driven over 20 000 kilometers and experienced a whole lot of sightseeing. Throughout this period, I've come to discover that each side of this island is incredibly different, not only nature-wise but also weather-wise.
