Our Lives in the Snowhouses

My name is Thelma and I have lived here in Iceland my entire life, only twice I’ve gone abroad. I like it very much here and I will always love my country although I will probably go abroad to study, there are more opportunities and I really don’t like the cold weather here. The winter is beautiful though and the summers are amazing! In the summers it’s never dark outside, the June nights are one of those you will never forget. I am very happy that I grew up here because there aren’t a lot of dangers here. As a kid you could be outside in games and feel completely safe. I think everyone should come here to visit at least once in their lifetime, because believe me, it will be worth it.
