Iceland will show you what it means to be sincere.
The things you want to see!

Most of those useless things didn't come to mind while I was traveling.
The time of travel, the time given each day, passed slowly and quickly.
From the moment you open your eyes in the morning and kick off the bed, your daily life becomes a journey.
Even though my body feels a little heavy and my head hurts a little, the moment I look out the window and realize that I am in an unfamiliar place, I know it's okay, because I am traveling now.
And I think.
I try to speak out loud.
“I am traveling.”

I needed some quiet time to organize my day.
I didn't want to go to sleep with my excitement level down and then continue my journey the next day with a slight hangover.
I took out a small notebook and wrote down my feelings that day, and I opened Google Maps to retrace my steps.
Sitting next to Jay, we observe people and listen to each other's thoughts.

If you go to Korea, you might miss this seemingly ordinary hot dog.
In preparation for that time, it is also a good idea to buy some Icelandic special hot dog sauce.
At Bonus Mart, you can buy hot dog mustard with the words 'pylsusinnep' written on it, Icelandic remoulade and ketchup, and even crispy onions.
One tip is to buy hot dog ingredients in advance on the first day of your trip and make them whenever you have time at your accommodation.

Iceland is a place where you can drive around the Ring Road and just enjoy the scenery outside the car window, but on the other hand, it is also a place where you can go through hardships to buy special experiences.
Let's fully experience the name "Land of Fire and Ice."
Let's climb a glacier for a day and look down on the world.
It was a day when I fully realized how small I am and how big and beautiful the world is that embraces my small and fragile self.
So Iceland embraced me, and I embraced Iceland, the land of fire and ice.

The hike went smoothly.
I just kept stopping in awe at the mysterious scenery that changed every few steps.
The sharp sunlight and the gentle breeze made it incredibly warm.
The more I travel, the more I feel like I need to cherish this small happiness that feels new and unfamiliar each time, rather than becoming familiar with it.

There was absolutely no need to worry about something that hadn't happened.
At the end of the vast plain was a cliff, and beneath it the deep blue sea lapped, and white Arctic terns squawked and marked their territory, and one of the small cottages dotted here and there was today's home.

Aside from the rustling of footsteps, the only sound was the gasps of joy and surprise from the silenced crowd.
I've seen countless photos of the aurora, but seeing it with my own eyes was truly moving.
It was ecstatic.
It was brilliant.
We hugged each other.
The cold Icelandic air smelled of birch.

I thought it would be nice to live in a rural village in Iceland.
I think it would be okay to be isolated for a month or so during the winter when there is a lot of snow.
If I ever get to wear my wool sweater and greet travelers from all over the world, it would be here in Djupavic, a small fishing village in the Westfjords.

For me, traveling isn't about relaxing at a resort or exploring for delicious food.
It's about living a new life in a new world to temporarily stop overthinking.

That's why they say Iceland is like space.
The vast land, spread out like a desert, was seething everywhere.
The sky is blue, and the barren land is grayish brown.
The sight of white smoke rising here and there resembles a giant Earth creature breathing.

One of the reasons I travel is the process of discovering myself as nothing in nature.
It will be a matter of strengthening one's humble heart and one's mind to return to nature whenever and wherever.

The reason why I, a person who worries a lot, like to travel is because I can forget my worries when I travel.
That doesn't mean I'm always happy 24 hours a day. I'm also a fool who worries about happiness when I'm happy.
But at the moment when I'm completely absorbed in something like this, I don't know what to worry about, what to be happy about, and I'm just shivering with the thought that the aurora will come out quickly. I wonder if this is the trip I've been hoping for, an adventure, or work, and then I smile for a moment, look up at the sky, shiver again, and then I discover the dazzlingly beautiful aurora!

When I see something beautiful, think about it later, and later feel a deep emotion that brings tears to my eyes, it feels like I am meeting myself through the scenes I encounter on my travels.
Learn about life.
I continue to live with the warmth that remains in my head and heart.

One of the things I brought to Iceland was a film camera.
I thought it looked a little like me.
Half of the pictures came out blurry, like they were taken with a broken camera, but it was okay.
I reminisced about that time while looking at the lukewarm results.
I was more inclined towards better pictures taken with a better camera.

I want to tell you that there is no need to be afraid of a winter trip to Iceland.
I regret not going on a winter trip until now because I was afraid of the cold.
Winter is so beautiful. If you ask me what my favorite season is, I would say it's winter for the time being.
After all, life is an adventure.
Let's leave for now.
Worries will turn into courage.
