Day 6 of my Iceland Ring Road trip was mostly spen Day 6 of my Iceland Ring Road trip was mostly spent in the Glacier Lagoon. Yes, again. When planning the trip, I listened to other travelers and allowed myself plenty of time here. Yesterday I made a quick stop for about 1 hour at sunset. Today I went again in the morning for the Zodiac boat tour (photo of me in full body armor in stories) and stayed until afternoon, taking it all in. What can I say. There isn’t many places on Earth you can comfortably drive up to where chunks of glacier are scattered across the beach and you can go on a boat in a lake full of icebergs. This is the first time in my life I’ve seen something like this. I know in Alaska there is a similar place, but I haven’t been to Alaska yet, so can’t compare. Hopefully, someday. #jokulsarlonglacierlagoon #jokulsarlon #glacierlagoon #glacierlagooniceland #iceberg #amazingiceland #discovericeland #travelnomad #arcticlandscape

My third week in Phuket. I’ve jumped through all My third week in Phuket. I’ve jumped through all the hoops, did all the tests, now I’m a free person until the end of January (and then for one more month with visa extension). I love how quiet it is here now (compared to January 2020 – yeah, I was in Phuket then and that’s where I first heard about the virus; funny). It’s pleasantly quiet, and driving is more manageable as a result, but it still takes some getting used to. And I don’t mean driving on the other side of the road – I mean the general crazy Southeast Asian driving when people do pretty much what they want on the roads. I can do it too (I’ve done it before), but it’s not the most pleasant thing in the world.   But it’s okay. I have a pool on the rooftop and a nice swimming beach 5 minutes away by car. The food is great, and, most importantly: it’s sunny :)  #travelnomad #phuket #nomadictravel #thailand #girlslovetravel #thailandtravel #solotraveler #watchalong #solotravel #watchalongphuket #femalesolotraveler #discoverphuket #globetrotter #thaitemple #solotravelingisfun #travelette #ladieswhotravel #travelwoman #mytraveldiary

Day 1 of the Ring Road trip. The weather is harsh Day 1 of the Ring Road trip. The weather is harsh: can be windy, can be chilly, and it can rain anytime. The landscape is majestic – love those endless green slopes completely devoid of trees. I know this is not how it was supposed to be (deforestation etc.), but I still think it’s beautiful. Reminds me of Hawaii, Lord Howe Island and New Zealand (just a little bit). What I saw today: Helgufoss waterfall – skippable. Thorufoss waterfall – beautiful. Geysir geothermal area – it’s not Yellowstone, not even Rotorua or Beppu, but trying to catch the geyser on camera was fun (see reel). Gullfoss waterfall – simply stunning. This was the highlight of my day (see reel). Secret Lagoon – well… nobody does hot springs better than the Japanese, that’s the fact. And so far I’m really enjoying Icelandic food. Yes, it’s pricy, but tastes really good. I was expecting something along the lines of British (didn’t have the best food experience in London). Happy to be pleasantly surprised. #icelandringroad #iceland #goldencircleiceland #ringroadiceland #nomadictravel #travelnomad #amazingiceland #icelandgoldencircle #discovericeland #icelandtravel #icelandroadtrip
Slowly but surely falling in love with Paris. I’m getting a hang of it – being slow, I mean. I go out every other day, picking one place, doing one thing - like seeing one floor of d’Orsay museum at a time and then just heading for a restaurant :) I should have planned for 2 months here instead of one, but at the time I wasn’t sure. Now I know for sure that I can live like this and I’m really looking forward to it. Winter in Thailand, spring maybe (please!) in Japan. I’ve stopped hoping for China reopening in any foreseeable future, but maybe Taiwan… Maybe Singapore? Anywhere they speak Mandarin, of any kind. I’m not being picky anymore. Please. #lovefrance #sacrecoeur #parisarchitecture #paris #france #francetravel #loveparis #travelnomad #nomadictravel #girlslovetravel #solotraveler #solotravel #femalesolotraveler #globetrotter #solotravelingisfun #travelette #ladieswhotravel #travelwoman #mytraveldiary

Almost 2 weeks in Chiang Mai. So many things to do Almost 2 weeks in Chiang Mai. So many things to do here. I like it better than Phuket. I can enjoy beach and ocean for a couple of weeks, but in the long run it's not really my thing, temples and cafes appeal to me much more. This is one of the most famous temples inside the old town, with a stupa that I think rivals in size some of the monuments in Ayutthaya. #chiangmai #watchediluang #chiangmaioldcity #thaitemple #discoverthailand #nomadictravel #buddhisttemple #chiangmailife #femalesolotraveler

Have you ever cried from beauty? Not because you’re sad or hurt, not because of a story or a song, but because you suddenly saw something so beautiful that your heart just can’t process it any other way? I’ve cried from beauty twice in my life, the first time when I first saw the Grand Canyon. The second time today, on the mountain ridge above Dynjandi waterfall, overlooking the fjord. No words or photos can describe this feeling, it stays with you for life. One of those things that makes life worth living. Dynjandi waterfall itself is amazing, probably will be my top 2, if not top 1 in Iceland. It’s actually about 10 falls in one, it will show you many different faces the further up you go – and you have to go up, although the trail is steep and wet, you'll be rewarded in the end. But it wasn’t the best thing that happened today. I actually wouldn’t have found that spot on the ridge above if not for a sudden onslaught of topographical cretinism – totally excusable in this case, because the topography of Westfjords is crazy (besides, this was the first time in Iceland I had no signal in my phone). Anyways, I actually went in the right direction, but then started doubting myself and turned back, and on the way back just randomly pulled out and decided to stroll around with my camera, taking advantage of perfect weather. I walked up to the rim, and this huge vista opened up, with the fjord stretching below and that same river that forms Dynjandi cascading through moss covered fields, forming another waterfall, invisible all but from one particular spot, right where I was standing. As I said, makes life worth living. Swipe till the end to see the video. After that was a long, tiresome 30-something mile drive on a dirt road with potholes through the crazy topography of Westfjords. Next time I come to Iceland, I’ll be renting a tank. #westfjords #dynjandifoss #travelnomad #nomadictravel #girlslovetravel #solotraveler #solotravel #femalesolotraveler #globetrotter #solotravelingisfun #travelette #ladieswhotravel #travelwoman #mytraveldiary #amazingiceland #icelandwaterfall #traveliceland #icelandfjords #icelandroadtrip
Day 7 of my Iceland Ring Road trip was mostly spen Day 7 of my Iceland Ring Road trip was mostly spent driving through the eastern part of the country, but it was a very scenic drive. I actually enjoyed driving in the fjords, where the road contours the landmass, so you have to constantly go in and out. My favorite part of this was turning the corner on the outer side and seeing the new beautiful fjord open up before me. Very exciting every time. And there's a mountain there that from one side looks like a perfect pyramid. Like it's man-made, fascinating. Not from every angle of course :) But all this zigzagging makes for a very long journey. Just driving (without stops) was 3 hours today, with stops it was 6. I’m spending the night at the beautiful Seyðisfjörður. The road leading to it is even more beautiful – why they didn’t think of making even one pullout along the way is beyond me. So, unfortunately, no photos from that road. Tomorrow I’m headed towards Mývatn, and it will be a long day. #femalesolotraveler #travelnomad #amazingiceland #eastfjords #iceland #discovericeland #travelette #solotraveler #solotravel #icelandringroad #icelandroadtrip

Day 8 of my Iceland Ring Road trip was a long day, Day 8 of my Iceland Ring Road trip was a long day, mainly due to long driving times, but I’ve had other challenges as well. After a beautiful morning at Seyðisfjörður (the most charming little town I’ve seen in Iceland so far) I headed to Borgarfjordur eystri – one detour I planned to make on my way to Mývatn. It’s a very remote place in the northern part of Eastfjords knows for its scenery and elves (among other things). I wanted to go mainly for the elves, but scenery was also a consideration. Anyways, all was good until I hit the unpaved section of the road that I didn’t know about, and my GPS was telling me that I still had 32 miles to go. I almost turned back at this point - 32 miles of gravel road on a rental Toyota Yaris is very unpleasant - but eventually decided to google and found out that it’s just one section of the road. So I bravely went ahead – the section turned out to be just 8 miles long (still unpleasant, but doable). I was rewarded with amazing vistas from the remaining of the road – and the wonderful experience at Álfaborg (Elf Rock). If you’re a meditator, spiritual practitioner or just a person with heightened sensitivity – I recommend. Very interesting power spot in Iceland. Today was also the day I got myself acquainted with Icelandic police. I was wondering since day 1 how much police is there in Iceland and where they all are – and also why some people on the road are driving too fast, while others are driving too slow. I was probably thinking too loud, so the Universe granted me with answers. The police is, obviously, on the Ring Road, and people who are driving too fast simply haven’t encountered them yet :) Anyways, the officer was very kind and let me off with a warning. Now I’ll be joining the ranks of the slow people on the road :) Total driving time today (without stops) – 6 hours. Staying at Mývatn for 2 nights – let’s see how much of it I can explore under the forecasted rain. Today I just stopped at Námaskarð Pass to take pictures of colorful fumaroles. #borgafjordureystri #myvatn #icelandroadtrip #icelandringroad #amazingiceland #discovericeland #travelette #femalesolotraveler #solotraveler #solotravel
