i had a blog post titled 'the secret to staying warm in iceland' which is quite misleading because i have yet to actually be warm in iceland.
despite wearing 6 layers a day, with a scarf and toque might i add, i still feel cold - not that i´m complaining, this weather is awesome, but it´s cold.
i remember when i was in canada looking up the temperatures of iceland and thinking 'oh this is not bad at all - quite mild!' but the thing is that it is ALWAYS i repeat ALWAYS windy here and so when it is ''13 degrees'' because of the wind it feels more like 3 degrees or maybe even as ''warm'' as 8 degrees.
today i met a man from greenland. he works in the capital as a butcher, he showed me some pictures of greenland - really beautiful. nice guy.
the following dialogue happened:
''ya in the summer it actually gets quite hot.''
''oh really? how hot does it get?''
''it can reach up to 15 degrees!!!''
also i have scrambled my way through every blog post thus far due to time restraints so i haven´t check anything i have written so just a quick apology for any parts of the blog posts that may be unreadable or confusing or grammatically mind-damaging.
also i´ll leave you with a song that i have come to love because the israeli girl that had awesome taste in music had this on her mp3 player and we switched mp3 players so i listened to a lot of her stuff and this song is quite beautiful. it´s buy an intellegent dance music artist but here he just plays piano. aphex twin - avril 14th:
