Around the Westfjords (1) - first impressions
I didn’t plan a summer holiday this year. Unexpectedly, my colleagues at work offered to cover for me, so I could take four days off. At the last moment I decided to head for the Westfjords.
This was the only part of Iceland - I delayed it again and again - waiting for the perfect moment. I decided that such a moment would probably never come, and I had to take the first small step. I packed my old Honda - a colleague installed a bed of his own design in the back - and I was ready to go. On the day I left, I realized I was starting my trip exactly on the second anniversary of my move to Iceland.
I knew I had only four days and wouldn’t have time to see anything properly. So I decided to go roughly around the Westfjords - sticking to the main roads. The last stop was to be the small settlement of Norðurfjörður, where my friend from work was spending her holiday.
The photos from the first day are not impressive. I took them during short breaks to stretch my legs. I skipped many sights without stopping - I just enjoyed the views from the car and the moment itself
