  • Join me as I show everyday life in Reykjavík, Iceland. On this particular day, I was running errands with my mom, who is visiting from the United States.

In this video, I am wearing a wool turtleneck and winter parka made with Primaloft that kept me super warm while running errands on this winter day in Iceland.

    I admit my first shock in moving here was the tiny refrigerators! Compared to those in the US! I was so used to shopping for about a week at a time, and here it is about every three days at the Kronan and once a week at the Costco!! I will say that the quality of the food here is outstanding compared to the US! You really do have to buy your bread every few days as the lack of preservatives makes it so much more tasty, and shorter home shelf life!

      So true. I do try to stuff as much as I can in the fridge though 😂

    Happy new year, Jewells! You're probably the first Icelander youtuber to bring up dry skin during the winter!
    Coming from milder, neighbouring Ireland, where the weather can be rough too (not as rough as Iceland admittedly), we thought we were prepared for the dry skin during the colder months in Iceland.
    We learned the hard way during our first trip so we came prepared the next time round.

    Happy New Year! 🥳 I actually think it would be Interesting to see a Costco tour in Iceland. I’m sure they might carry certain things that we wouldn’t see in the U.S. Prices would be interesting to see as well since you’ve mentioned things tend to be more expensive there.

I'm asking cause I know one country that don't allow you to bring more than one kid to live there! We plan on moving out there once I find me a work from home job. I watched your other video on how you were giving the steps on moving there!
