Adventure Culinary Travel
Crossing an impossibly flat and desolate landscape, like something from another barren planet, we made our way to Skaftafell. Part of the Vatnajökull Glacier and National Park, Skaftafell is an area with a waterfall in one direction and a glacier sheet in another. We had time for just one, so we went to explore the glacial ice, the almost tropical colored pools, and the sudden drop in temperature!
Read MoreFjaðrárgljúfur Canyon is a beautiful, awe inspiring sight in southern Iceland… and one we were lucky to see! It was closed to visitors for some time due to damage to the landscape from people choosing not to respect the fragile environment, but luckily it had reopened just before our arrival. We explore this magnificent place and revel in its breathtaking scenery, while hoping people will choose to be responsible and respectful of the landscape in the future.

Come follow as we explore Skógafoss and the amazing landscape of the surrounding countryside!
Read MoreRight off Iceland’s main Rt 1 - the famous “Ring Road” - is the towering Seljalandsfoss. Ribbons of water fall close to 200 feet into the little pool, sending a soaking spray through the air. The trail takes us alongside the falls right beside the pool before leading us through the cave behind the water!
Read MoreThis magnificent waterfall was one of the most anticipated stops on our journey through Iceland! An enormous rush of water cascading down to a plummet into a beautiful canyon, Gullfoss is a standout waterfall in a land known for waterfalls. We felt the rush of the water as it crashed into the rocks, got a bit wet from the spray, and if the falls weren’t gorgeous enough… we were treated to a rainbow arching over the canyon!

Read MoreWe climbed up the mountain roads on the western side of Switzerland, taking the long and scenic route back to Zurich. And scenic it was! Along with the pastel fields, green forests, and cow-filled pastures, we stumbled on a slice of absolute heaven snuggled right between the cliffs and the road!
Read MoreFrom the legends we have read since we were kids, the images of picturesque little German villages, and our love for nature all combined into our fascination with the Black Forest. It has long been a destination both of us have dreamed about, and we are finally here! We stood in complete awe surrounded by the towering trees and green moss in the forest, drove a long woodland road to our remote hotel, found a waterfall in a cute cuckoo-clock village, and had a wonderful sausage dinner. The night ended perfectly with the best clear, starry sky that we’ve seen in years!
