IF YOU MISS ICELAND TOO MUCH AND YOU CAN'T FLY BACK...  #part 2#

Not too much to say, London, Brixton Academy, 3 nights in a row, all sold out very quickly, Sigur Rós is back... There's something different though: they're not 4 anymore, but does it really matter? The magic experience was still there...
Seeing Jónsi is always a memorable experience: in an antique theatre in France, in Laugardalshöll in Reykjavík or randomly in Harpa or Kaffitár... Looking forward for the next experience...

HARPA




Harpa is for me one of the most interesting building in the city.

I can stand for hours sitting on one of those big yellow square things with my coffee, music in the ears, looking at the mirrored ceilings, windows on the back, the irregularly-shaped glass panels of different colors on the front, the stairs going up and up, the whole building is very fascinating... Very interesting architecture. 










ROAD TRIP TO THE SOUTH, VÍK, ETC...


Driving on 10 cm thick icy slippery wet and snowy roads in Iceland : check! When you're driving on route [1] towards the South east, with the ocean on your right, the glacier with its unpronounceable name standing proud on your left, and then suddenly in your rear-view window you see a car sliding from left to right before completely sliding off the road then it's time to slow down. Really! 









Finally after two days we managed to find The Plane!
An abandoned U.S army plane in hidden away in the depths of Iceland...







For all the travelers, seeing the landscapes during winter time is completely different of summer time, if you can, you must come back! :)




BACK TO JUNE 2011...

First time in Iceland, first time in Reykjavík, I spent 3 weekends out of 4 in the city, the rest of my time traveling all around...














Let's get started...

Three Months in Iceland?
Really?
What for?
Why?
What about your job?
And then what?
Too many questions, life is too short too worry, I'm just acting, not thinking...
''Life is such a big fucking joke, why should I care?'' said Interpol in one of their first album which is 10 years old now...

When you fall in love and your love story isn't finished, you have to come back, that's why I'm here, trying to close the chapter with Iceland I've started in June 2011, close a chapter to start a new one.
I needed to see the darkest side of Iceland, its winter side, and I'm gonna try to show how it looks like through photos...
