Welcome back Lea, We have all missed you!

Welcome back, Lea. You've been missed. Congrats on your little family, and a big, gentle hello to Baby A. Another beautiful episode. What a fascinating place Iceland is. Safe travels, and I look forward to your continuing adventures wherever and whenever they occur.
-
You have set a new standard on what a motorcycle road trip video should be. Your videos are highly informative about the people, geography, culture, and lifestyles. Thank you for all your efforts in creating meaningful and enriching content. Cheers.
-
Iceland is so beautiful, and your decision to make this video mostly on drone captured views was such a good idea, it gives us a completely awsome testimony of this northern and wild part of the planet,. You have become a master at drone filming. thanks for your dedication. Cheers from Montreal.

I have seen Iceland trips from a couple of ADV riders by now. The wonderful Itchy Booty, the force-of-nature TheGirlOnABike, Free Miles MC and then there´s all the videos by Icelandic native Just Icelandic. It just doesn't get old, and each of the viewpoints show different facettes the others didn't present. Yes, the weather was very kind with you much of the time. Noraly and Free Miles MC had more rain to deal with! And what an absolute piece of beauty this video is! 🤩🤗 If this video gets less than half a million views, I declare Youtube broken. 🤨

Excited about your new arrival. Congratulations. Just thought I would add my own little experience. My son was born while I was onboard a large tanker somewhere on the high seas. After arriving home I decided it was time to make a change and started work with a small Danish shipping company that only operated around Scandinavia and Northern Europe. Which meant I would be closer and home more often. But the other big advantage was our little boy could join me with his mother during the summers when the weather was calmer.This worked very well and in fact he learnt to walk on a ship, my mother remarked when we came home he walked like a sailor. It is amazing what you can do with a little one once you have worked out the details.

I was there in 2015. Just did a self-drive tour that took us to Stikkusholmur to the west and as far as Hofn on the east side. But a day trip up to Akureyri and Lake Myvatn was also enjoyed. Iceland is the most magical, mystical, lovely place in the world. Thank you for this delightful trip around the whole island. I plan to go back and stay longer and will definitely check out the highlands next time - although probably not on a motorcycle.
