I met her for one hour on Friday evening after connecting with her through Couch Surfing in January. We decided to rent a car for a day and I would guide her …
… the weather forecast was excellent for the western peninsula Snaefellsnes.
We made a few stops when the view was to beautiful to move …
But we were heading towards Arnarstapi – our first stop.
From Arnarstapi we took a hike to Hellnar – 2,5 km walk each way.
Wonderful spots along our walk demanded quite a few stops on the way …
Power and beauty of the amazing Icelandic sort …
At Hellnar we took a little walk towards the Glacier – Snaefellsjokull
And looking back by the graveyard at Hellnar:
And then walking back to Arnarstapi, where our car was parked. The walk was slippery at times, but we had a path to follow through the otherwise tough terrain.
From Arnarstapi we drove to one of the most amazing and powerful places I’ve ever been to. Heading towards Djupalon, my heart beat hard with anticipation.
In the breaking waves small pebbles rock and roll – the energy so powerful that it is palpable, and enchanting. It is really hard to move away from there once you’ve made it there.
Enchanting and powerful … ocean hitting the rocks … mesmerizing
And looking in the other direction, at Djupalon:
And across the waves towards the open ocean …
At my feet the lathering power …
We drove back along the North-Coast of Snaefellsnes Peninsula …
… the last picture in this blog being the blues of the light shift.
Iceland is totally worth visiting – so many beautiful places, all over the island.
I love my chances to get around – lacking car most of the times …
… the perfect move is to be chosen a guide 
Love it!
… except daydreaming
