❄️ Iceland Adventure: Waterfalls, Black Sand Beaches & Northern Lights Magic 🇮🇸✨

#postandearn 📍Iceland Iceland is pure magic—raw nature at its finest. We packed a few unforgettable days with epic sights, from thundering waterfalls to the surreal glow of the Northern Lights. Here’s how we explored some of the island’s best! ⛲ Golden Circle Wonders We started with the classic Golden Circle: powerful Gullfoss waterfall, the erupting Strokkur geyser, and the rugged beauty of Þingvellir National Park. It’s an easy loop from Reykjavik and perfect for a first taste of Iceland’s wildness. ♨️ Soaking at the Blue Lagoon After a day on the road, nothing felt better than floating in the steaming Blue Lagoon. Silica masks, milky blue waters, and lava field views—completely otherworldly! 🌊 Chasing Waterfalls: Seljalandsfoss & Skógafoss Heading south, we visited Seljalandsfoss first—where you can walk behind the waterfall (bring a rain jacket!). A short drive later, Skógafoss stunned us with its sheer power and shimmering rainbows. ⛰️ Black Sands of Reynisfjara Reynisfjara Beach was otherworldly: roaring waves, basalt cliffs, and jet-black sand. It’s beautiful—but the waves are wild, so keep your distance! ✨ Northern Lights Dream On our last night, luck was on our side—Aurora Borealis danced across the sky in green and purple ribbons. Cold fingers, but memories for life. ⸻ Quick Tips: 🚗 Rent a 4x4 if traveling in winter—weather changes fast 🎒 Dress in layers and always have waterproof gear 📱 Download a Northern Lights forecast app—it helps! #tripmoments #iceland

Mi米遊記
Blue Lagoon

When it comes to beautiful countries around the world, nordic countries hold a special place in my heart. Although my stay in Iceland was a short one because of business reasons, it was a life time experience that the memories remain fresh & green forever. I travelled to Reykjavik stayed there for 3 days, then travelled to even less touristy place and a sort of isolated place called Selfoss. It is more a agricultural town and the local economy bloomed because of a bridge constructed before WWII. This bridge is so important that the British troops guarded this bridge during WWII. Also it's believed that here is the first man settled in Iceland (not sure on the information credibility). Later I enjoyed the very famous geysers along with hot springs. I too booked with a tour group for Blue Lagoon day trip. Iceland is such a mesmerizing land. #urbanexplorer #leaveyourmark #nordictravel #iceland #urbanexplorer#leaveyourmark
