I'm hoping to go to Iceland next year -- even though flying there from Los Angeles should be really difficult and expensive.
Do you think it's possible to travel alone to Iceland without knowing a word of Icelandic? How would a tourist without a car go from place to place?
I've been wanting to go there since over 10 years ago. The links to all the pics are great. Obviously, the purest place on earth :)

lind: All Icelanders know English so you will be understood! There are car rentals here and there also but some tourist hike and some bike! ;) Let me know if you decide to come here!

I have a friend that went there. To be honest, previously I had no interest in the place. But after his report, it seems like it would be worthwhile to make the pilgrimage. He said the people were great and the weather was not as extreme as in other nordic countries (is iceland nordic? i guess not).
Hmm... are there many design jobs there...?

I kind of looks like the canadian maritimes, but with bigger mouantains and some more snow.

HAHAHA! Those where some smart vikings. They had the master plan. Well it 1300 $ to iceland from where I am. Things must be kinda expensive there?
