Reykjavik is such a fun word!


In case you guys haven't heard, Iceland is having some financial difficulties. (To which I say, aren't we all?) But in an effort to attract some extra money, IcelandAir, the official airline of Iceland, is practially giving away flights from several major cities across the US.

Plus, if you pick the right package, they are throwing in free hotel accomodation, free breakfast, and a slew of coupons to use as you do your tourist thing.

Not only that, but destinations in Iceland aren't your only options. They have flights to London, Paris, and the rest of Europe for super cheep. I myself am planning a weekend gettaway there sometime soon because a weekend in Iceland is cheeper then a spa weekend here in Boston. Just saying.

You think women developed an interest in travel only recently? Think again. If you're looking for some interesting reading try this on for size: "The Far Traveler: Voyages of a Viking Women".

Here's the synopsis: Five hundred years before Columbus, a Viking women named Gudrid sailed off the edge of the know world. She landed in the New World and lived there for three years, giving birth to a baby before sailing home. Drawing upon modern science and ancient sagas, The Far Traveler is the story of Gudrid and her world.
