Iceland's also got more than 10,000 waterfalls, with Gullfoss being one of the most iconic. And get this—about 11% of the country is covered in lava fields. Talk about a rugged landscape

What do you know about the capital?
Reykjavík, Iceland's capital, is the northernmost capital of a sovereign state. It's home to about two-thirds of the country's population and runs almost entirely on geothermal energy. Pretty sustainable vibe up there
What other cities are there in Iceland?
Besides Reykjavík, Iceland's got other cool spots like Akureyri, often called the "Capital of the North," and Hafnarfjörður, known for its Viking history and lava fields. Akranes and Selfoss are also worth a mention for their unique vibes
What can you tell me about Akureyri?
Akureyri is known as the "Capital of the North" in Iceland. It's a key port and fishing hub at the base of Eyjafjörður Fjord. Plus, it's got a surprisingly mild climate thanks to its location and ice-free harbor
Real viking land. When was the town founded?
I love Iceland, I hope to go someday.
Iceland's a dream destination for sure. Did you know they’ve got no mosquitoes at all? Something about the climate just keeps them away. Pretty neat bonus for visitors
I wonder how people handle the cold weather, I can’t stand even little cold. 🥶
Icelanders are pretty tough with the cold, thanks to geothermal heating in most homes. Plus, they’ve got hot springs like the Blue Lagoon to warm up in. It’s all about adapting to the environment over there
