Iceland: Scenes from Reykjavík and around

Þar sem jökulinn ber við loft hættir landið að vera jarðneskt, en jörðin fær hlutdeild í himninum, þar búa ekki framar neinar sorgir og þessvegna er gleðin ekki nauðsynleg, þar ríkir fegurðin ein, ofar hverri kröfu. — Halldór Laxness, Heimsljós
I spent a couple of weeks in Reykjavík in the summer of 2017, exploring the country during the weekends. My days comprised of coffee, bread, books, programming, conversations, hot dogs, naps, smelling roses, and the occasional exploration.

Iceland is quite expensive. I made myself a lot of sandwiches.

I loved smelling the roses each time I left or returned to my apartment on Háteigsvegur
Looking across at Reykjavík through Reykjavíkurtjörn, not far from Alþingishúsið, or Althing, Iceland's national parliament, also the oldest legislature in the world that still exists.
