  • Most people who visit the Blue Lagoon seek tranquility and the space to experience it with as few people as possible. In this video, I show you one way that you can do that.

    As an introvert, having a private part of the Blue Lagoon all to myself sounds like heaven to me! And the hotel you stayed at looks amazing too! 🤩🤩

    I unfortunately don’t have a father that wants to be present in my life, so hearing about the love and reverence that other people have for their fathers always provides a bit of healing, for me. Your dad sounds amazing and I thank you so much for sharing your story with us ❤. I’m so happy that you got to have that experience, and you look so happy and at peace 🎉

    Hi Jewells, so nice to see you enjoying your life. Every time I see you, I wish I was there. I think you’re a wonderful advertisement for Icelandic tourism. The Icelandic Government should pay you for all the free advertising you do to encourage tourism in that country. I live in Australia and you made me want to travel to Iceland to experience their beautiful and unique culture and landscape. I have one request, if at all possible could you please do a segment on swimming between the tectonic plates, where the Eurasian tectonic plate meets the North American tectonic plate. How fascinating, no other country on earth would give you that opportunity. Anyway, have a lovely day. I love your happy and bubbly personality, so refreshing in this world of misery and bitterness. You’re inspiring, keep it up. ❤️🌹🇦🇺🇭🇺🌏🐝🐞🐈🐕‍🦺
