13th May - Reykjavik to Vik

The Iceland airport is ever the 1st airport I had encounter with NO PEOPLE around at 10pm

All shop in the airport are closed

Beside a duty free shop

And I even not sure whether it's going to operate 24 hours

Just too silent here~

And ... They forget my check in backpack in Copenhagen~

What's going on these people here?

I report to the only 2 staff in the airport regarding my delayed luggage

yet, I'm luckily to meet a Switzerland merchant who comes Iceland for meeting willing to take me a lift from the airport to the town city

I think good man is really everywhere, as he has been waiting for me 40 mins as I need to report my lost and walk out the airport the last person >.<

Together, we find my Iceland couch surf place in the town (I snapped the map day before I depart for map refer) and we witness the sun on 11pm indirectly helping us to find the road

   

I can't believe my host have more than 10 couch surfers at the same time >.<

What a generous host

And he told me all the couch and mattress here are collected from the city where people abandon their unused item

Bingo, we are over a night in a dump site >.<

However, I do appreciate the host

 

Right to give is never under the condition of rich people but those who have a good heart and willing to give 

The early morning, 5 Russian backpacker left the site, I have some conversation with an England couple and a Switzerland guy, they told me hitch-hiking is popular in Iceland as they have few main road to different place only

This sound familiar, aren't it same like New Zealand?

I took the suggestion and try my luck today

  

  

Volcano area hot stream everywhere

Resident here transform the hot stream to energy for home use

 

 

5 times hitch-hike, about 3 and a half hour from Reykjavik to Vik West to South

Thanks for all kind Icelander

Vik - famous with it's black sand on the beach

Welcome to Iceland!
