How to say "good night" in Icelandic


March marks the beginning of my residency in Siglufjörður, a small fishing community in Northern Iceland. You can read more about the area and my plans for the residency in an earlier post.

As I boarded my Icelandair flight, I was impressed by the linguistic lessons on the antimacassars. But 'soft and cuddly' may not be the way work is heading, with rock formations like this outside the window...

Siglufjörður, the name only already sounds like adventure and poetry... I'll surely make a photo-search...

I wish you the best stay and a most successful work, Nancy. I share your passion for the arctic and far north, the difference is that you really go and study and live there, I can only dream.

All sails and good winds to Siglufjörður, than !

Good luck on your Arctic travels, Nancy. I look forward to reading about it and/or hearing about it when you return.

Thanks Mário and Stephanie for your good wishes. I promise to send some reports to those back home!
