    Fascinating little town and surrounding area --sunny & warmly dreamlike even in early April..!
    Many of these walking tours of small, out-of-the-way Icelandic towns can evoke magical feelings similar to some of Edgar Allen Poe's short stories of [what Poe described as] "finding unique/beautiful/unknown locales and dwelling places via solitary hikes" ....Viz: in a few of Poe's lesser-known, non-morbid writings.. .. e.g., .' Landor's Cottage' -- or 'A Tale of the Ragged Mountains.'
    I think it's a form of High Art that you're able to create such beautifully-visual 'story-tellings' in this new-fanagled, high-tech medium of Videography -- especially when you follow your muse into more remote, coutryside areas like Hveragerdi.
    FWIW: the Finnish composer, Jean Sibelius, was also able to create some similarly-transcendental emotions via various of his musical depictions of the mysterious Finnish countryside -- the best of which, arguably, is his orchestral tone poem, 'The Swan of Tuonela.'
    Please do keep-up your very unique creative work.
    Bestu Kvedjur

      Hi Alex, very interesting thank you. Long before I started making the videos I have always enjoyed walking and exploring new places, some waderlust. It's amazing what you can discover in the most unassuming places and you get into a sense of flow. Really. Thank you for the high praise, I don't know Jean Sibelius but I should explore his work.

      Awesome. Maybe the most noticable change is the absence of Eden. You would go there for ice-cream and the arcade. And plants I guess.
