• it’s not because I’m perfect (far far far from it), on the contrary, it’s because I’m nervous and worry too much and don’t like the feeling of falling…who else is like this? 😅 this audio perfectly describes my style of skiing ⛷️ 😅 I’m that friend who skis all day, avoids falling at all costs, and somehow ends up without a single snowflake on me by the end of it (as my friend hilariously pointed out) ❄️

🇮🇸 10 Fascinating Facts you need to know abo

🇮🇸 10 Fascinating Facts you need to know about Reynisfjara Beach (🌬️swipe to see how crazy windy it can get 😅)

1️⃣ Unlike your normal beaches, Reynisfjara is a black sand beach, formed from cooled lava from volcanic eruptions.

2️⃣ The beach is lined with hexagonal basalt columns, formed when lava cooled slowly over time. These stunning rock formations are called Hálsanefshellir cliffs.

3️⃣ According to Icelandic folklore, the Reynisdrangar sea stacks were once trolls trying to pull a ship to shore. They turned to stone when caught by sunlight.

4️⃣ Dangerous Sneaker Waves 🚨 The beach is known for its sudden and powerful waves that can sweep people into the ocean. Never turn your back to the sea!

5️⃣ Reynisfjara was featured in Game of Thrones. It was the Eastwatch-by-the-Sea beyond the Wall location.

6️⃣ The cliffs near the beach are home to various birds including puffins during the summer months.

7️⃣ The beach’s black sand comes from the nearby Katla volcano, one of Iceland’s most active and powerful volcanoes. It remains active to this day.

8️⃣ You can find Hálsanefshellir rock cave which features natural basalt walls that look like something out of a fantasy movie.

9️⃣ No Swimming Allowed 🚨 The beach is too dangerous for swimming because of the strong currents and freezing water temperatures.

🔟 Did you know that Reynisfjara is consistently ranked as one of the most beautiful non-tropical beaches in the world by travel magazines.

⬇️ Here’s 10 tips on how you can boost your chances of seeing the Northern Lights (full details on carousel (make sure to swipe through) 💚

1️⃣ Go during winter (September to March each year are considered the peak season)
2️⃣ Download an aurora forecast app. I use @myauroraforecast – Look for days where there is a KP index of 3+ for better visibility.
3️⃣ Escape light pollution – Head out of cities to remoter areas.
4️⃣ Pick a clear night – try your best to check weather conditions and pick a day where there is less cloud coverage.
5️⃣ Be patient – The lights can appear at anytime.
6️⃣ Dress warm – Depending on the forecast, chances are you will be outside for hours in freezing temperatures. My top tips - find at point 6 on the carousel.
7️⃣ Avoid full moon nights – The darker the sky, the more visible and vibrant the lights.
8️⃣ Join a guided tour – If you are unsure of where to go or how to see/find the Northern Lights. If you are visiting Iceland use code “OVERPACKED10” for 10% OFF you Northern Lights tours with @arcticadventures
9️⃣ Avoid relying on your naked eye. Use your phone camera to see Northern Lights you might not see right away.
🔟 Stay flexible – The lights are unpredictable, so keep your plans open and try to book a trip that will allow you to go chase the lights on more than one occasion.
