FROM A MOSQUE TO THE UNEXPECTED!

Istanbul! Beautiful emotional chaos. I was having lunch around the hostel when suddenly, I heard the most incredible sound in my life: a voice that repeated words in a different language, like a song. I was petrified listening and felt a desire to get up and follow the sound to see where it came from.

Tips to travel in a camper in Iceland!

Driving around the ring road through Iceland is undoubtedly an adventure. In winter it isn't popular to travel in camper because the weather is extreme. Still, it is the best time to witness the northern lights because of the long periods of darkness. We made this trip for 19 days in a camper van during March and April when, in theory, seasons are changing from winter to summer (I say in theory because the icelandic weather is a box of surprises: we drove in snowfall with incredible winds and we had total summer days).

I want to share some tips that can be useful if you decide to travel this way and know the wonderful landscapes on your own!
