5*****, terrific video,by far the best vlogger in Iceland.
Thank you so much :) and welcome :)
again .. Top-shelf
Thanks a lot :)
I love your videos, your sense of humor and your candor. Thank you for inviting us on this fascinating journey through your beautiful country!
Thank you so much!
As always, interesting and informative. I'm also loving the drone footage on your channel.
Much appreciated!
Very nice video containing information about your beautiful Iceland. Also, love the old film clips you include.
Many thanks!
You just made my viewing time so pleasant and fascinating again. It's af if we all all there with you. Thankyou
Thanks a lot :) glad you felt so :)
Stunning Stunning drone footage and each time I see your videos I feel like I'm home..thankyou ..much love from Australia...correct you are the best Icelandic vlogger.
Thank you very much :) don't know if I've earned that but for sure trying to be :)
That's my peak viewing for this Saturday night sorted. Great video as always with fantastic drone shots; AND...of course those little cheeky short comedy-clips which are very much your trade-mark and usually make me laugh-out-loud. It's bizzar how much I'm learning about Iceland at this late stage of my life. Thanks for uploading, and all the best to you.
Thanks. lot :)
I spent a few months on Hofsa' a medium size farm in Svafathardallur and have many fond memories. Sheep cows horses and chickens. Cutting hay and hauling into the barn. Country dances are better than discos any day. The farm I stayed with had a beautiful waterfall behind it and an old 1931 farmhouse built of concrete, it was perfect setting for a movie about the depression years in Iceland. Any comments on this movie or another movie called The Raven Flies would be much appreciated
Thanks for sharing, and you would love this one, shot in Svarfaðadalur, should try to find it..www.imdb.com/title/tt0203639/
What's not to like about this channel. 👍
Thanks a lot :)
Amazing beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
I loved the story you told. The drone footage is incredible, too. Please don't entirely give up on the drive around angle. I love driving in the car seeing Iceland from that perspective, especially when you fast forward the drive, that makes exciting video.
.... same here.... 👍
Thank you! Will do!
So Beautiful ❤🏴❤
Thank you :)
I’d go check out a place called “Troll Peninsula,” but I’m definitely not your average tourist, either.
Beautiful scenery! Love it! 😍😍😍
Thanks a lot :)
Such a beautifully done video and I enjoyed the lyrics at the end. Lovely. Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Another fine view to a town we visited several times during the last 40 years, watching it growing. Thank you for all the information you never get, when just driving by or taking a walk. And now we know, that we have been close to you, when we were building our tent on the camping-side in Akureyri or enjoying the fabulous pool. Have a nice and healthy future and many spectacular drone-flights over your home-country. And by the way, I even understood the last words of the poem and enjoyed it very much.
Thank you so much and it's way more to come, I made similar vids when I started with the channel but only with subs and I'm replacing them all now, and I have a new Akureyri vid in the making now, think you will like it :)
The mountainous landscape is so beautiful. Your videos are such a great advertisement for visiting Iceland.
Glad you think so!
Absolutely fantastic! Love it! Also love your sense of humour.
Thanks :) and welcome :)
I love this series about Icelandic cities, thank you for all the time and care you put into it.
My pleasure! more soon :)
This was amazing!! Love hearing about these smaller towns and their history. Thank you for sharing
Glad you enjoyed and thanks a lot!
❤️ thank you Gylfi.❤️
❤️ welcome :)
Halló, ég er hálf íslenskur og afi minn var sjómaður. Þegar ég var ungur sagði hann mér margar sögur og sérstaklega um að taka sumarið til að veiða á Dalvík. Þakka þér fyrir öll myndböndin þín!
Gledileg Jol
Takk fyrir og gaman að heyra :) njóttu vel og takk fyrir komuna :)
Wonderful to know about these beautiful towns, villages and lands.
Thanks for visiting :)
Excellent. I had the pleasure of visiting Dalvik a few years ago, the same time as the first iceberg in Eyjafjordur for over twenty years. It caused quite a stir. (The iceberg).
Thanks for your beautiful videos.
I remember, they don't come that often no more :) and thanks
I love these background stories about places I've only passed through (in this case, to catch the ferry to Grimsey). I've always lived in big cities, so it's really fascinating to me how you can trace the beginnings to the first settlers in the area, the first house still standing.
Thank you, just uploaded a new one from a nearby island :) Hrísey and sorry for late reply, and thanks for visiting :)
Another amazing episode!!! Thank you! Bara frábært og skemmtilegt. Takk fyrir :) This summer (2021) I drove from Mývatn to Kópavogur in one day with few stops. We both were so happy that we decided to keep North and not N1 towards capital region. Unfortunately didn't camp at Dalvík but we saw sooo much... Thank you for filling those missing gaps.
Thanks a lot :) and welcome
Wonderful story about the nice little town Dalvík. I went there two times, visiting a friend who lives in Skeið in Svarfaðadalur :)
Thanks, hope you liked it there :)
@@JustIcelandic Yes, it's very pleasant but I came too late for fiskidagurinn milk... next time :)
@@macpatman I am from Dalvík and I hope fiskidagurinn mikli will be held 2022 :)
The Java VM in the early versions of Android (till version 4.4) was called Dalvik. Apparently some of the developer ancestors lived there.
Thanks for the tip :) appreciated
The choral singing is very much like that of our Welsh choirs here in the valleys of Wales
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌😀
Takk kærlega😀
This was recommended and once I started watching I found the information very interesting!...I appreciate your candidness and the drone views were great!
Wonderful, thanks a lot :)
Thank you very much. Very good information about at little town, which I am soon going to visit and I am looking foreward to se more of your videos.☺
Thank you and welcome to Iceland :)
Excellent video. Makes me want to come and visit Iceland rural areas.
Go for it! Welcome to Iceland :)
This a very enjoyable visit. Thank you.
Many thanks!
The Mcafee story is my favorite one! haha
Welcome
Beautiful. Thanks
Welcome 😊
hæ elskan minn 🌺
Hæhæ :)
Dalvíkingur hér 🙌
Velkominn :)
Yes, thanks a lot Gylfi for, again, a fantastic video. can’t wait to visit the north from my all time favourite land Iceland. The troll and the pot does it not come from the Westfjords ?😊 I think i saw it once over there on a look out at a ravine......maybe. Waiting for the next video. Would you ever like, maybe, to make a video about abandoned places, really love that🤪
In fact, I'm into this "abandoned" niche when it comes to my own RUclips usage :) and I made this video few yrs back when I was starting my own channel. But I would have done it better today :) but yes, it's something that fascinates me in a way so I'm sure if I find the right places with the right mood, I might go into that niche, and thanks for visiting :) ruclips.net/video/73PtMrdZT-8/видео.html
Thank you for tour of Dalvik. Loved it. Looking forward for more tours. (Have you done a basic Icelandic language video/class yet? ;) )
Not yet, I was all over volcanoes this year but lets see what 2022 brings us :)
Fascinating! Interested in seeing more introductions to different towns. Loved my trip there in 2001, bur it was too short.
Thanks, then you just have to visit us again :) and welcome to Iceland :)
Great video.
Thanks for the visit
Nice video! Greetings from The Netherlands!
Thank you very much!
I love that there is not much light pollution so the auroras are visible also sun never sets because its so close to the arctic
Yes it's a fantastic place for summer and winter solstice :)
Wonderful!!!! . . . How do you say that in Icelandic??
Æðislegt :)
@@JustIcelandic I'm almost sorry I asked!! BUT, I'll try to learn how it is pronounced.
Dalvík kalt bær hlýtt fólk takk fyrir
Vekominn :)
, Indeed a very nice name to shout 🗣as a supporter for a football team 😅😅
I have to check it out next summer :)
Fascinating history with that big quake. Given the possibility for a magnitude 7, in what must be shallow coastal areas, is there any danger tsunami and is there any history of such in and around Icelandic waters (I guess there are too many other risks to worry about such a thing, but with growing population and industry I wondered whether any resources are dedicated to such research/preparedness? UK was once hit by a massive tsunami from Norway, and rumours of one long ago from the mid Atlantic (I guess it might even have been Iceland for all we know).
You went straight into the core of the video I'm brewing up these days :) or the tsunami risk. There are ancient stories of such around there, seamen drowned on Skjálfandi-bay during the 18th century, after an earthquake. but it's just a thing I'm working on trough lots and lots of browsing..., but not a single króna has been invested in tsunami research here in Iceland, ever....so I want to prepare that video especially well....
@@JustIcelandic It could be the biggest Chineses takeaway ever, takeaway most of Europe too ;) Great videos, I hope you're keeping well.
Hello, I really enjoy your videos, was wondering if you could be interested in starting another channel, I was a young lad when I lived in Keflavik. Our icelandic teacher would read fables to us. Not sure where they came from. The one that has stayed with me all these years, well there was a boy who was gifted a sword that would re attach limbs lost in battle. I can't remember more then then that now. Back to the question, could please perhaps read a couple of those old fables? Even if just for posterity.
It's a good idea but I'm afraid it's out of my reach since just this channel is still far from giving me fair return for the work I'm putting into it, but it's a long time goal so I remain hopeful, and thanks for the suggestion :) appreciated...
Really nice video and great shots! I'm really enjoying these town videos and getting to see Iceland all around. What is the fish soup like? Do people have different recipes for it?
Yes the fish soup 🍲 differs a lot but usually very 👍 you should try it
@@JustIcelandic I would love to! :) Except I don't have any way of having it here :'(
Great video, I have fished with rod and line from what we called "the salt bags" in the harbour of Dalvik. It looks like the salt bags have gone, are there still fish in the harbour? In case I come back to fish with my son? Thank you! Mark
Holyhell, everything is shaking here in reykjanes.. 500 earthquakes
More...it's up to 200 earthquakes pr. hr
@@JustIcelandic jup, felt a few here in Sandgerði
I love your vídeos from different cities and their historical views. Thank you for sharing them. Best wishes from Brazil 🇧🇷
When you have earthquakes in Iceland, do people fall into the sea? 🤣
I really enjoy your videos but I ain't half funny!
🤣 only the tourists
