I overpacked so I’m only giving what I found essential for an early November trip.
These were great for the hikes and treks during the day and night, especially because I was able to use my phone with them on to take pictures!
At night I did need to add hand warmers but they were snug enough to keep everything warm
I needed snow boots that were comfortable enough for me to wear while trekking through different hikes. I hate shoes and confining my feet, but I also hate my feet being too hot.
These boots were so comfy and kept my feet warm with a pair of merino ...

I cannot express how much fun we had and how beautiful and surreal of the views we got.
This place was awesome...

Blue Lagoon Iceland
I know it sounds ridiculous, and it totally is but it actually is pretty interesting too! First of all, best idea ever- buy yourself a penis cocktail to take with you around the museum! Next you learn about the mating habits and size and ratio of ani...
